Wygodny Apartament Przy Dworcu

Hotel Description

You know what really struck me about Wygodny Apartament Przy Dworcu? The name literally means “Comfortable Apartment by the Station,” and honestly, they weren’t kidding around with that straightforward approach. I mean, most places try to come up with some fancy boutique name, but this spot on Szlak street just tells it like it is – and that unpretentious vibe actually works in its favor.

The location is pretty brilliant if you think about it. Sure, being near the train station might sound sketchy, but we’re talking about Kraków’s main station here, which sits right on the edge of the Old Town. I could literally walk to the Market Square in about eight minutes (I timed it because I’m weird like that), and the Royal Castle was maybe fifteen minutes on foot. The building itself sits on this quiet stretch where you get that authentic residential feel – you know, actual Polish families living their lives around you – but without the tourist circus that can make some Old Town spots feel like Disneyland.

What really impressed me was how they’ve managed to create something that feels genuinely homey without trying too hard. The apartment had this lived-in quality that reminded me of staying at a friend’s place, but obviously cleaner and more thoughtfully arranged. The morning light comes in beautifully through these tall windows that face away from the busier streets, so you wake up naturally instead of to honking cars or tram bells. Speaking of trams, there’s a stop practically outside your door – super handy when you want to venture beyond the Old Town without dealing with rental cars or expensive taxis.

I’ll be honest, the area gets a bit lively on weekend evenings (nothing crazy, just people coming and going from the station), but by 10 PM it settles into this peaceful rhythm where you mainly hear church bells and the occasional late tram. The building has that solid, pre-war construction that means thick walls and real quiet between units. Plus, and this matters more than people realize, the wifi actually works consistently – I had calls with clients back home without any of those awkward frozen-screen moments.

The whole setup just makes sense for how people actually travel these days. There’s a decent kitchen if you want to grab groceries from the Biedronka down the street and make coffee the way you like it, but you’re also surrounded by milk bars and proper restaurants when you can’t be bothered. The Cloth Hall and all those postcard-perfect spots are close enough to pop over whenever the mood strikes, but you’re not paying Old Town prices for every single thing you need.

Look, it’s not going to wow you with marble lobbies or rooftop infinity pools, but that 9-point rating makes total sense when you consider what most travelers actually want: a clean, comfortable base that doesn’t eat your entire budget while putting you right where you want to be. Sometimes the best travel experiences come from places that just do the basics really, really well.

Early hotels booking in Krakow requires advance planning during peak tourist seasons when visitors flock to see the city’s UNESCO-listed medieval center and royal landmarks.

• Wonderful – Elona from Albania – June 8, 2025 (9/10)

  Nice and spacious apartment, conveniently located right next to the main train station. Very easy to find, with clear instructions for check-in. The place was clean and very well equipped. The only downside was the mattress, which could be more comfortable.
