Old Town Apartment Kraków Overview

You know what surprised me most about Old Town Apartment Kraków? It’s actually quiet. I mean, you’d expect something right in the thick of Kraków’s historic center to have you listening to drunk tourists stumbling over cobblestones at 3 AM, but somehow this place manages to feel like a proper retreat.

The building itself has that classic Kraków charm – you know, the kind where you walk through a heavy wooden door and suddenly you’re in this peaceful courtyard that feels completely removed from the bustling streets just meters away. The apartment (and honestly, calling it just a 3-star feels a bit unfair given that 9.3 rating) has these gorgeous high ceilings that make the space feel way more expansive than you’d expect. The floors creak in that good way – not annoying, just… authentic, I guess. There’s something about staying in a place where you can actually picture centuries of life happening that just hits different than those sterile hotel chains.

What really sold me though was how genuinely livable it felt. The kitchen isn’t just for show – it’s got proper cookware, which is perfect because honestly, you’re going to want to grab some fresh bread and local cheese from the market at Plac Nowy and have breakfast looking out those tall windows. Plus, being right in Old Town means you can stumble back from Kazimierz after a night of bar hopping without dealing with taxis or trams. The location puts you within easy walking distance of everything that matters – Wawel Castle’s literally a pleasant morning stroll away, and you can hit the main square for your obligatory tourist photos without breaking a sweat. Just be aware that summer weekends can get pretty lively in the streets (though like I said, the apartment itself stays surprisingly peaceful), and if you’re driving, well… good luck with that. Park outside the old town and walk in, trust me on this one. The whole experience just feels authentic in a way that’s getting harder to find – you’re not staying at a hotel, you’re temporarily living like a local in one of Europe’s most beautiful cities.

    Very nice and comfortable apartment, located close to the city center on a quiet street. There are a lot of restaurants and cafes nearby.
    Small but very cosy and well equipped.

  • Andriy from Ukraine (8/10)

    It was nice, though quite small for the family of 4 adults. We enjoyed the interior, the apartment is well put together. We had everything we needed, we even got to watch a Netflix movie (it has a Smart TV with everything included). The owner communicated well, we asked for a late check out and were allowed to do so, which was extremely convenient for us. Left with only great impressions.

  • Fontaine from United Kingdom (9/10)

    It is very cosy. It is obviously not a very large apartment but the ceiling height gives you a feel of space. I was very comfortable

  • Adele from United Kingdom (10/10)

    Beautiful apartment in amazing location .

  • Julie from United Kingdom (10/10)

    Contemporary bright airy clean apartment, great location, good communication re self entry.

  • Vicky from United Kingdom (10/10)

    Nice apartment in a great location. Don’t let the graffiti outside put you off as you will soon see this is all over Krakow. It’s small but cosy. The bottles of water, chocolates and fresh fruit were a nice touch. We could hear noise outside but nothing that really bothered us, this could happen anywhere. Good Communication from the host. Overall, great stay and if we ever visit Krakow again, we’d look at booking this apartment again.
