Krakow hotels

I've decided to spend a weekend (Friday night, Saturday, depart Sunday) in Krawkow sometime in the end of June. I want to basically relax and check out the party scene, maybe see a few sights.
Are ther any hotels recommended that are near (walking distance) to all the nightlife? I found a list of hotels on the internet, but there where so many to choose from I figured I'd better ask first.
I saw a Novotel Centrum on there, but it looks a bit expensive. There was a hotel called Crakovia, which seemed reasonably priced. Are either of these OK, or is there better places you guys recommend?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi. Ibis is also a part of Accor Group and wasn't so expensive some three yrs ago. Maybe you can give some price idea what you can (or are willing to pay) so that I can recommend you.

Thanks.
I'd like to stay around $100.00 USD per night; but would like the hotel to be nice also. I certainly do not want to pay much more above $150.00 USD per night.
Are these prices reasonable, or should I expect to pay more for a decent place?

try this you wil see photos and map where the hotels are

have good fun in former capital of Poland

It's in range of Ibis quality / services, see:

100 USD is approximately 280 PLN, and 150 is slightly above 400.

I have checked that for you on Ibis Krakow Centrum online, and here is what I found:

(Fri 22 wasn't available) so 29 June, stay 3 nights,

regular price: 299 PLN per night

of course, you can get better prices or higher depends on how much luxury you want to have and the location of the Hotel.

400 PLN /night is what you have to pay for 4stars class like Demel (10 minutes from the Main Square)

Try to google: grand hotel, holiday inn, orient, best western piast, classic, elektor, fortuna, fortuna bis, francuski orbis, kazimierz, logos, maltanski, novotel krakow bronowice, pod roza, pttk wyspianski, warsawski, wit stwosz, astoria,campanile.

wish you a nice stay!

Bryon. Don't know the hotels that well there but if you get some names from others then check out hotelspoland.com for good rates. I use them all the time for warsaw

or Wielopole Guest Hotel:


wielopole.pl/english/index_e.php


very close to center i.e. main square (and ok prices)

where do you stay in Warsaw hun?

Depends.

If I've got loads of Marriott points I stay there cos they all know me !

I've still got an apartment in Centrum so if it's not being let I stay there.

Otherwise I use Hotelspoland and get the latest deals. They have a five star 'mystery' offer usually which gets you in to the Marriott. Victoria, SAS, type hotels for a good rate, expecially weekends.

My favourite cheaper place is the Gromada centrum. Not brilliant but very covenient.

Szarlotka,

Ever stayed at the Polonia Palace ? I stayed a night there over a year ago and was blown away by the place..........especially the restaurant.

No - but I hear it's good.

Thank you for all the help. I appreciate everyone taking the time to give me some info. Also, thanks for all the extra help Angry Duck.

just browsing it now and staypoland site as well as this was recommended as a site to me as well.

Haven't tried the staypoland one cos I always got good prices from the first one.

with the staypoland one you get the option to pay on arrival :)

Welcome :)

Hi all,
i am italian (from Rome) and i have planned to visit Krakow (and its suburbs) this summer (August). Is there anybody who may give hospitality to me? I don't like touristic accomodations and I prefer ethical travels. If you have suggestions about places to stay please let me know! Thanks.

Telefonitika,

What is your price budget per night and do you have a preference for which area in Krakow ?

i booked a studio apartment £134 for 6 nights for both me and my daughter here is the link :) cracow-apartments.com

Hi tele,

thanks a lot but it's not for me. I am alone and I don't need an apartment. Anyway I have had a look at the italian version of the site and apartments don't seem to be so cheap! If I had someone to share the room with.... Do you know anybody looking for a cheap accomodation in Krakow in August?

Are B&Bs still tough to come by in Poland? Namely, in Krakow, Torun and Gdansk (or their surrounding vicinities). I'll be driving through in the last week of August and need to make reservations ASAP. Any websites that might help w/ numbers?

I stayed at a B&B typr of place in Boleslawow (southern PL by Czarna Gora) and it was fantastic! We were given dinner and breakfast every day. They're around!!
