The rook was exceptional and the staff were very kind! Upon check in i was given a map and a few recommendations for food nearby which was a huge help. The breakfast also had a wide selection to choose from and was delicious! The only complaint i have is loud neighboring rooms. The walls are pretty thin but every morning i could hear doors slamming and loud voices from the hallway. It wasn't a huge bother since i was already awake but its something to beware of

Very pleasant stay. Well located nice breakfasts

Lovely staff, rooms were clean very comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was of excellent quality and on early check out they even prepared a takeway snack for us. Also sorted out transfers and a tourist trip. We all enjoyed this hotel. Rooms slightly dated but fully equipped and as stated comfortable. Hapily stay again if we returned to Poland.

Old fashioned hotel, scrupulously clean and comfortable. Great location for Jewish quarter and only a 15 minute walk to old town. Lovely staff. Only complaint is the breakfast wasn't the best. Not a great choice and not the best quality of ingredients. But it was ok and i would stay here again
