Premium Apartment Old Town Topolowa Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Premium Apartment Old Town Topolowa on a quiet residential street in Grzegórzki, you might wonder if you’ve got the right address — and that’s actually part of its charm. This three-star property sits tucked away from the tourist crowds, yet you’re still close enough to hear the distant hum of Kraków’s Old Town. The building itself has that solid, understated Polish architecture that doesn’t scream “hotel” but rather whispers “local secret.” I mean, there’s something refreshing about staying somewhere that feels more like a neighborhood find than a typical tourist accommodation.

The Apartment Experience

Once you step inside your apartment, it becomes clear why this place scores so well with guests. The space is thoughtfully laid out — not cramped like some city accommodations can be, but actually roomy enough to spread out your stuff without tripping over your suitcase. The kitchen is properly equipped too, which honestly makes a huge difference when you want to grab some fresh bread from a local bakery and have a quiet breakfast before heading out. You know what I particularly appreciated? The windows are well-insulated, so despite being in the city, you can actually get a decent night’s sleep.

Location Perks

Here’s where this place really shines — the location score of 9.4 isn’t just marketing fluff. You’re positioned perfectly between the historic center and the more authentic residential areas where locals actually live and work. A fifteen-minute walk gets you to the main square, but you can also duck into genuine Polish cafes and shops that haven’t been completely touristified yet. Couples seem to get this balance especially well, which makes sense because you can easily slip away from the crowds when you want some quiet time together.

Practical Considerations

The parking situation is better than you’d expect for this part of Kraków — there’s actually space available, though I’d recommend confirming the details when you book. Public transport connections are solid too, so you’re not stuck walking everywhere (though honestly, walking around this neighborhood is pretty pleasant). The building has that European apartment-style setup where you’ll need to buzz in, but it’s straightforward enough. One thing to note — this isn’t a hotel with a front desk, so you’ll coordinate your arrival time in advance, but the process was smoother than I expected.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets Premium Apartment Old Town Topolowa apart is how it manages to feel both central and peaceful. You get the independence of having your own space — complete with a proper room setup that doesn’t feel like a cramped hotel box — while still being close enough to everything that matters in Kraków. The 8.9 rating reflects what you actually experience: solid value, smart location, and that rare feeling of staying somewhere that locals might actually choose for themselves. It’s not trying to be fancy or flashy, but it delivers on the basics really well, and sometimes that’s exactly what you want from a city break.

    the key system is very easy to use as the owner had messaged me through booking.com with the details and codes. We loved the well equipped apartment. We utilised facilties such as washing machine and coffee machine. Plenty of spare towels and drying clothes racks if needed. Very stylish accomodation.

    The apartment was spacious, warm and cosy in quiet neighborhood. Love the high ceiling and bedroom located on mezzanine. Close to Galeria Krakowska and central station, easily accesible from the airport. Few shops, cafes and restaurants around. 20 minutes walk to the main square. Good communication with the owner.
