Old Town Aptartments – B23 Overview

First Impressions

Bosacka Street is one of those quiet little corners of Kraków’s Old Town that feels like it belongs to the locals rather than the tourists — and that’s exactly what makes Old Town Aptartments – B23 such a find. You step off a cobblestone street, away from the main crowds, and suddenly you’ve got this calm, characterful place to call home for a few days. It’s a three-star property, but honestly, the location alone punches well above that rating.

Location & Neighborhood

I mean, the position here is genuinely hard to beat. You’re in the heart of the Old Town, which means the Main Market Square — Rynek Główny — is just a short walk away, and so is Wawel Castle if you feel like stretching your legs in the morning before the tour groups arrive. Couples especially seem to fall for this spot, and it’s easy to see why — there’s something about wandering these streets together in the evening, with the city lit up and the restaurants spilling out onto the pavements, that just works. The location score of 9.6 from guests isn’t a surprise at all.

The Apartment

This is apartment-style accommodation, so you’re not getting a standard hotel room with a reception desk and a minibar — it’s more like borrowing a well-set-up flat in a historic building. That actually suits a lot of travelers better, especially if you’re staying a few nights and want a bit of space to spread out. There’s a kitchen or kitchenette situation, which means you can grab fresh bread and local produce from a nearby market and have a proper breakfast without paying café prices every morning. It feels lived-in, in a good way — not sterile, not over-designed.

The Surrounding Area

One thing worth knowing about this part of Kraków is that you’re also close to the Kazimierz district — the old Jewish quarter — which has some of the best bars, coffee shops, and independent restaurants in the city. It’s about a fifteen-minute walk, and it’s the kind of walk where you actually enjoy getting there. The area around Bosacka itself is quiet enough that you won’t be kept up by noise, but lively enough that you never feel like you’re stuck in a backwater. That balance is sort of rare in a city centre.

Why Guests Love It

Old Town Aptartments – B23 sits at an 8.9 guest rating, and when you factor in the location, the apartment setup, and the price point for a three-star stay in one of Poland’s most visited cities, that score makes complete sense. It’s not trying to be a boutique hotel or a flashy chain — it’s just a solid, well-placed base that lets Kraków do the heavy lifting. If you’re visiting as a couple and want to actually feel like you’re living in the city rather than just passing through it, this is the kind of place that makes that possible.

Reviews of Old Town Aptartments – B23

  • Raul from Portugal (9/10)

    Located right next to the bus/train central station. 5min walk to city center. 20m from a grocery store. Warm in cold weather. Really the best you can get for the money!

  • Iveta from Slovakia (9/10)

    Great location, at the train and bus station, yet a quiet place. A little smaller bed for two, but clean and well equipped accommodation.

  • Gary from United Kingdom (9/10)

    It was simple and pretty straight forward to get the keys. The apartment was easy to find within the block and to access. The apartment itself was a decent size with enough in it for a good stay. The sofa bed was comfortable. The bathroom was excellent. The shower was lovely. The temperature was very snuggly. No fear of being cold. 🙂

    The location was really convenient; right next to the bus and train station, and not noisy at all, which we had thought it might be. But we were the other side of the block from the station. It was a pleasant few minutes stroll to the main square in Warsaw where we stopped for breakfast on route for coffee and cakes – which were delicious.

    We would stay here again.
