Old Town WAWEL II Premium Apartments

Old Town WAWEL II Premium Apartments Overview

Look, I’ll be straight with you – when I first heard “Old Town WAWEL II Premium Apartments,” I honestly expected some overpriced tourist trap trading on Krakow’s castle fame. But you know what? This place actually surprised me. It’s tucked away in the real Old Town (not the touristy fringe areas where some places claim to be), and while it’s only rated 3 stars officially, that 9.1 guest rating isn’t just lucky – there’s something genuinely solid happening here.

The apartments themselves feel more like staying in a friend’s well-kept flat than a sterile hotel room. I mean, you’ve got proper kitchens with everything you’d actually need, not those sad little mini-fridges and single-burner setups most places give you. The living spaces are generous – honestly bigger than what I was expecting for the price point – and there’s this lived-in comfort that’s hard to fake. What really got me was the attention to practical details: proper blackout curtains (trust me, summer mornings in Krakow start early), decent water pressure, and – this might sound silly but it matters – enough electrical outlets where you actually need them. The Wi-Fi works properly too, which isn’t always a given in these old buildings.

Here’s the thing about the location that most reviews won’t tell you: you’re close enough to walk to Wawel Castle without breaking a sweat, but far enough from the main square that you’re not dealing with the late-night party crowds echoing off the cobblestones. I could actually sleep with the windows open, which is rare in the heart of any old European city. The neighborhood has that perfect mix – you’ll find locals doing their grocery shopping alongside visitors, real bakeries next to the inevitable souvenir shops. Parking’s always tricky in Old Town anywhere, but the staff actually knows which streets have better luck at different times of day, and they’ll point you toward the less obvious public lots. Check-in was refreshingly straightforward too – no lengthy speeches about amenities I can figure out myself, just genuine helpfulness when I asked about the best route to avoid construction near the river. It’s the kind of place where you settle in quickly and start planning your next visit before you’ve even packed to leave.

• Mary from United Kingdom (8/10)

  It was a great location near the castle and old town. One room was very comfortable but the other room was in fact a sofa bed. We thought it was going to be a proper bed. Nice touch leaving coffee and water.

  Having travelled to Kraków for more than three decades, it was such a joy to discover this exceptional apartment so close to Wawel. Incredible value, comfortable, quirky, well appointed and amazingly convenient, with covered secure parking just metres away and all of historic Kraków just outside the main door. Safe, quiet and easy to access. The hosts were super helpful and very informative. Highly recommended!
