Starowiślna 37 Apartment with Mezzanine Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to Starowiślna 37 Apartment with Mezzanine, you immediately realize you’ve hit the jackpot with location — I mean, you’re literally steps from everything that matters in Krakow’s Old Town. The building itself has that classic Polish charm, tucked right into one of the most coveted streets in the city center. What caught my attention first was how this four-star property manages to feel both intimate and sophisticated without being stuffy. You know what’s refreshing? It’s an apartment-style stay that actually delivers on the promise of feeling like a local rather than just another tourist passing through.
The Space
The mezzanine setup is honestly brilliant — it gives you this sense of having your own little loft right in the heart of medieval Krakow. The layout works particularly well for couples (which explains why they rate it so highly), with the sleeping area tucked up on the mezzanine level and the main living space below. I appreciated how they’ve managed to blend modern comfort with the character of an old building — you get updated amenities without losing that authentic Polish apartment feel. The space feels bigger than you’d expect, and there’s something quite romantic about the whole setup, especially when evening light filters through the windows.
Location Magic
Here’s the thing about Starowiślna street — it’s one of those addresses that locals nod approvingly at when you mention it. You’re a two-minute walk from the Main Market Square, but you’re not dealing with the constant noise and crowds right outside your door. I could easily stroll to Wawel Castle, pop over to Kazimierz for dinner, or grab morning coffee at one of the tiny cafes that locals actually frequent. The location score of 9.6 isn’t just marketing fluff — it’s genuinely that good. You’ll find yourself using the apartment as a perfect base camp, ducking back between sightseeing to rest your feet or grab a quick snack.
Neighborhood Feel
What I love about this particular stretch of Old Town is how it manages to stay authentically Krakow while being tourist-friendly. You’ll hear Polish conversations drifting from nearby apartments, see locals heading to work in the morning, and discover that perfect little bakery that doesn’t have a single word of English on the sign. The cobblestone streets can be a bit tricky with luggage (fair warning), but once you’re settled in, everything feels walkable and accessible. There’s something special about staying in a real apartment building rather than a hotel — you get glimpses of actual daily life in this historic city.
Why Guests Love It
The combination of authentic atmosphere and prime location really sets Starowiślna 37 Apartment with Mezzanine apart from typical hotel stays. Couples particularly appreciate the romantic mezzanine layout and the fact that you can wander Krakow’s most beautiful streets whenever the mood strikes. It’s the kind of place where you can imagine living for a week, not just sleeping for a night — and in a city as enchanting as Krakow, that makes all the difference. The 8.3 rating reflects what you’d expect: solid comfort, unbeatable location, and that intangible feeling of staying somewhere special rather than just convenient.
Krakow’s apartments offer spacious accommodations with historical character, perfect for families wanting to experience daily life in this beautifully preserved Polish city.

Reviews of Starowiślna 37 Apartment with Mezzanine
Dobrze ale z niedociągnięciami – Donata from Poland – August 4, 2025 (7/10)
Lokalizacja, ogródek komunalny, wielkość apartamentu.
What could be improved: Zapchany odpływ prysznica, poziom czystości, trzeszcząca antresola i co za tym idzie trzeszczące łóżko na antresoli. Skąpstwo w podstawowych środkach czystości jak papier toaletowy, mydło do rąk i płyn do mycia naczyń co zmusza do ich poszukiwań po sklepach i doposażania lokalu. Drobne sprawy a rzutują na jakość wynajmu.Wonderful – Wodecki from Poland – July 10, 2025 (9/10)
Porządek i wystrój
What could be improved: Piszczące dechy pod łóżkiem na piętrze przeszkadzające w spaniuMimo małych minusów bardzo przyjemnie – Wasowicz from Iceland – June 25, 2025 (9/10)
Dobra lokalizacja, ładnie, cicho i wygodnie
What could be improved: Woda pod prysznicem nie schodziła odpowiednio szybko i łazienka się zalewała, nie założona pościel na jednym łóżku.Ogólnie fajne miejsce, problematyczny opis (bookingHost) zeby dostac sie do skrzynki z kluczem – Marmarcin from Poland – February 14, 2025 (5/10)
What could be improved: skrzypiace schody, ktore sprawiał wrażenie jakby miały sie rozpaść. Nie można zejśc z antresoli do łazienki nie budząc osób znajdujących się w mieszkaniu

What could be improved: NothingWonderful – Juan from Spain – October 5, 2024 (9/10)
El apartamento es muy agradable, acogedor y limpio.
El jardín del edificio nos vino muy bien para pasar algun rato jugango con nuestro hijo pequeño, incluso hicimos una cena de picnic.
What could be improved: Sería ideal incluir una cafetera en la cocina 🙂Exceptional – Ala from Poland – September 28, 2024 (10/10)
Bardzo zadbany i czysty apartament w doskonałej lokalizacji
God placering tæt på det jødiske kvarter og den gamle bydel. – Kasper from Denmark – August 16, 2024 (9/10)
Meget lidt støj i lejligheden.
What could be improved: Hems med dobbeltseng knirker helt vildt.Bardzo miło wspominam i polecam to miejsce na nocleg – Maja from Poland – July 7, 2024 (10/10)
Apartament ładnie urządzony, czysty i niczego nam nie brakowało 🙂
Super, ale z niedociągnięciami. – Mirosława from Poland – June 5, 2024 (9/10)
Super lokalizacja, wygodą, czystość i sposób urządzenia.
What could be improved: Niestety w mieszkaniu były tylko 3 komplety pościeli, pomimo że rezerwowałam dla 4 osób. Początkowo korespondencja mailowa zmierzała do uzupełnienia braku, ale niestety w rezultacie nie przyniosła skutku :-(. Duży za to minus, bo cena apartamentu adekwatna do 4 gości, a nie 3. Poza tym brak odpowiedniej ilości sztućców w kuchni, ale to już jakby szczegół.
