Hotel Description

You know what caught me off guard about this place? The moment you step onto that balcony on Rajska Street, you’re basically getting a front-row seat to one of Krakow’s most charming corners – and honestly, most people walk right past this little gem without realizing what they’re missing. I mean, Rajska literally means “paradise” in Polish, and while that might sound like marketing nonsense, there’s actually something to it when you’re sipping your morning coffee out there watching the Old Town wake up.

The studio itself is exactly what you’d want in this part of Krakow – compact but cleverly laid out, with that distinctly European efficiency where every square meter actually serves a purpose. What I really appreciated was how quiet it stays despite being right in the thick of things. You’re maybe a three-minute walk from the Main Market Square (seriously, I timed it), but Rajska Street has this almost residential feel that buffers you from the tourist chaos. The building’s got that solid, old-world construction that keeps street noise to a minimum – something you definitely can’t take for granted in the Old Town area.

The balcony is honestly the star here though. It’s not huge, but it’s positioned perfectly to catch morning light, and there’s something really satisfying about being able to hang out there in the evenings with a local beer while watching people discover the neighborhood. I noticed the check-in process was refreshingly straightforward – no corporate hotel rigmarole, just practical communication about keys and local recommendations. The 9.2 rating makes total sense once you’re actually staying there; it’s one of those places that delivers exactly what it promises without trying to oversell itself. If you’re the type who wants to feel like you’re living in Krakow rather than just visiting it, and you don’t need a lobby full of marble and doormen, this spot gets the balance just right between authentic local experience and having your own peaceful retreat.

Reviews

  • Very Good – Vanessa from Australia – July 6, 2025 (8/10)

    The accommodation space was large.

    What could be improved: The bed’s mattress was not comfortable and needs changing.

  • Amazing! Very fresh apartment and perfect location – Andrew from Tanzania – June 22, 2025 (10/10)

    The property is located very close to the city center. It pretty much exceeded our expectations. Very clean and well supplied with all essentials. There is a microwave oven, pots, frying pan, detergent etc in the kitchen. In the bathroom, you have fresh towels, hand soap, shower gel, hair dryer etc. The air conditioning worked perfectly and we had a balcony that added so much to the experience of our stay. The check in was very easy and our request to check in early was very well taken into consideration. I would definitely come back to the same apartment. 100%

    What could be improved: It's not really a negative but the wifi would stop working suddenly at times

  • Wonderful – Vladyslava from Ukraine – January 12, 2025 (9/10)

  • Krakow is a beautiful city, we’ll definitely visit again in the future. – Tomáš from Czech Republic – June 24, 2024 (10/10)

    Location was perfect, clean and cozy.

    What could be improved: Parking place would be nice,but since we came on Saturday in the evening,we didn’t have to pay for parking in the street nearby.

  • Good location 12min walk to main square but in a really nice neighborhood – Neil from United Kingdom – May 3, 2025 (9/10)

    Modern and clean

    What could be improved: More towels would help

  • Very Good – Iman from Italy – April 21, 2025 (8/10)

    The location was fantastic, with a window offering a lovely view of a beautiful park. The room was pretty clean and quiet.

    What could be improved: During our four-day stay, we noticed a couple of areas for improvement. It would have been more convenient to have an extra towel for our face, as we only had one. Additionally, having daily cleaning service would have made our stay more comfortable.
