Mikołajska 5 Apartments Overview
Look, I’ll be honest – when I first heard “Mikołajska 5 Apartments,” I wasn’t expecting much from a 3-star place. But you know what? Sometimes the most memorable stays come from spots that don’t try too hard to impress you with marble lobbies and gold-plated everything. This little apartment hotel sits right on Mikołajska street, and if you’re familiar with the area, you’ll know that puts you in one of those neighborhoods where locals actually live and work – not just the touristy bits everyone talks about.
The apartments themselves have this lived-in quality that I actually loved. I mean, don’t get me wrong, everything’s clean and functional, but there’s character here. The kind of place where the floorboards might creak a bit when you walk around in the morning, but somehow that just adds to the charm. What really got me was how quiet it stays at night – you’d think being right in the city center would mean constant noise, but Mikołajska street sort of tucks you away from the main traffic routes. The kitchenettes are surprisingly well-equipped too (I was able to make proper coffee, which honestly makes or breaks a trip for me). There’s something refreshing about having your own space to spread out, especially if you’re staying more than a couple nights.
Here’s the thing that really sets this place apart though – the staff actually knows the neighborhood. Not just the obvious tourist spots, but like, where to grab groceries that won’t cost you a fortune, which café around the corner opens earliest, that sort of practical stuff. During my stay, the woman at reception told me about this little bakery two streets over that I never would’ve found otherwise, and it ended up being one of those perfect morning routine discoveries. The check-in was refreshingly straightforward too – none of that overly formal hotel dance, just friendly people who seemed genuinely interested in making sure you knew your way around. I stayed during what I think was shoulder season, so things felt relaxed and unhurried. Can’t speak to how it gets during peak tourist months, but I imagine it maintains that neighborhood feel even when busier. With an 8.8 rating, clearly other people are picking up on whatever magic this place has going for it, and honestly, I get it completely.
To book hotel in Krakow during the famous Krakow Film Festival season, visitors should make reservations well in advance as the city attracts history enthusiasts and cultural travelers from around the world.

Great apartment in a well suited location, right on the doorstep of the city. The staff were super friendly and made me feel welcomed. Price was great for the room, has all the basics you need for a short break.
Tracy from United Kingdom (9/10)
The location was fabulous and the rooms were great and so comfortable
Lisa from Australia (9/10)
The apartment is in a fantastic location, right near the main square, it is above 2 busy bars, however there was no disturbance with any noise that we were aware of. The apartment is huge, with comfortable beds and a small kitchen with basic facilities, which was fine as we chose to eat out with so many places right on the doorstep. The train station is a short walk away, however we used Bolt to travel further distances at a very reasonable cost. There were staff available during the day to answer any questions we did have and were happy to point us in the right direction regarding local sights etc. The apartment is up 2 flights of stairs, something to be aware of if you do have mobility issues.
Kristina from United Kingdom (9/10)
We stayed here a few times now as it's an ideal central location. The rooms are always clean & comfortable. Reception ladies are always very helpful and informative.
