Lovely rooms, with great atmosphere and next to a great street. Near Wawel Castle, very walkable. There was a slightly odd smell near my room (308) but didnt detract from the experience. Heavily recommend

I loved my stay at Hotel Wawel. It was super cute and clean. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and the breakfast was delicious. There's lots of great shopping and food that is easy to walk to from the hotel. Transportation is all around as well. If I am ever back in Krakow I will definitely be staying here again.

Hotel Wawel was wonderful. The room was clean and tidy, the breakfast rich and nice and the personnel wonderful. It is in the heart of the old town 5 min aways from the basilica and 5 min from Wawel castle. I would definitely stay again in my next visit to the city
