Premium in Novum City Center near the train station by Sun & Snow Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Premium in Novum City Center near the train station by Sun & Snow, you immediately get that “this is exactly where I need to be” feeling. The building sits right in Krakow’s Old Town on Rakowicka Street, and honestly, the location alone makes this three-star property punch way above its weight. I mean, you’re literally steps from everything that matters in this city — the main square, the castle, those winding cobblestone streets that make Krakow so magical. The entrance has a clean, modern feel that tells you this isn’t some tired old hotel trading solely on its prime spot.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s what I love about staying here — you can actually walk everywhere, but you’re also incredibly close to the train station when it’s time to move on. That location score of 9.2 isn’t just marketing fluff; it’s genuinely earned. The Old Town spreads out around you like you’re at the center of a medieval map, and I found myself constantly surprised by how quickly I could get to places I thought would be much further away. Plus, they’ve got private parking on-site, which anyone who’s tried to park in European city centers will tell you is basically finding gold.

The Rooms

The rooms are what you’d expect from a solid three-star place — clean, comfortable, and designed with actual travelers in mind rather than Instagram photos. Nothing fancy, but everything works properly, which is honestly more than I can say for some pricier places I’ve stayed. The beds are genuinely comfortable (not just hotel-comfortable), and the bathrooms are modern enough that you won’t feel like you’re roughing it. What really struck me was how quiet the rooms are despite being in such a central location — you know how some city center hotels feel like you’re sleeping next to a construction site.

The Neighborhood Experience

Being in the real heart of Krakow means you’re surrounded by that perfect mix of tourist attractions and actual local life. You’ll find yourself grabbing coffee at places where locals actually go, not just tourist traps. The morning walk to explore the city becomes part of the experience rather than a commute, and evenings feel natural when you can just wander back through the Old Town streets. I noticed a lot of couples here, and it makes sense — there’s something romantic about being able to step out your hotel door and immediately be in one of Europe’s most beautiful historic centers.

Why Guests Love It

That 9.1 rating reflects what most people discover pretty quickly — this hotel gets the fundamentals absolutely right. You’re not paying for marble lobbies or rooftop pools, but you are getting a genuinely great location, reliable comfort, and the kind of practical amenities (like that parking) that make travel easier rather than more complicated. Couples especially seem to appreciate how the location lets them be spontaneous — grabbing dinner at a place they just discovered, taking evening walks through the illuminated Old Town, or easily catching trains to other Polish cities. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you’re actually experiencing Krakow rather than just visiting it.

  From start to finish, our experience with The Sun & Snow was the best and easiest we've ever had. We were even able to check in early without any issues, which was incredibly convenient. Communication with the hosts was excellent and fast, ensuring a smooth process throughout our stay.
  
  We've been booking through Sun & Snow for over a year now, and every time, it's a fantastic experience. One of the great advantages is that their office is nearby, making it easy to stop by and ask any questions.
  
  The apartment is located in a very nice, brand-new community. Despite being close to the train station, the neighborhood is very quiet. The apartment is also located very close to the Old Town Kraków, with everything conveniently nearby. The apartment itself is spacious, very clean, and features modern furniture and great design, making our stay very pleasant.
  
  It has everything you could possibly need, from kitchen appliances and plates to a washer and iron. It truly feels like a home away from home.
  
  I will continue to book only through Sun & Snow—they are top-notch.
