    Nothing to report - our stay was too short.

    Charming - nice style and great service. The breakfasts were unforgettable.

    Very little to complain about.

    The location is superb. It couldn’t be anymore central. I liked the Automatic doors at the entrance from a hygiene purpose. The decor is very classy. The best of everything.

    Parking was a short distance away, but this is your best expected in the center of town. It didn’t bother us at all, and one of the staff would park the car for us if we wanted.

    The location is absolutely fantastic, right beside the Wawel Castle and stepping directly into the Old Town. We were visiting for my daughter’s birthday and they graciously let me send a birthday parcel to the hotel before our arrival. There was also a little ‘Happy Birthday’ card in her room. We arrived very early and had planned just to park the car and drop off our bags, but our rooms were ready! We were able to get in early, which was lovely as it was raining. The reception staff was very kind and accommodating. The rooms are comfortable and tastefully decorated. It’s such a fun hotel!

    We just felt the hotel needed a comfy sofa area to sit and chat with friends after a day out touring around the city. Somewhere where we could enjoy a drink together and chill out. Also the air conditioning units outside our bedroom window were noisy through the night. The view from our room was meant to be over the courtyard but I think we got the back of the kitchen store.

    Beautiful hotel with exceptional staff, super location , breakfast was lovely and breakfast staff amazing. Rooms beautifully clean and receptionists all super helpful. This hotel is a little diamond .

    The bed. We found it too firm and the pillows far too thin. Only when we gave the hotel feedback at the end of the trip did they tell us there was a pillow menu. We did order more pillows but firmer pillows would have been better.

    The property was clean tidy and well maintained.

    The pillows were not very plump, one large and one very small one each but they did provide 2 larger ones upon request. The room was way too hot which really impacted our sleep. We opened the window as much as we could for the whole stay and turned off the under floor heating in the bathroom but the radiator in the bedroom stayed on.

    The interior was beautiful and our meal in the restaurant was one of the best we’ve ever had. The location was also perfect.

    Only 3 criticisms: 1. The towels were tiny (I am a slight 5’3’’ woman, and they were tiny on me!) 2. There was only one pillow on the bed, another would have been perfect 3. The air on couldn’t be set below 19 degrees which was too hot at night

    The decor, the delightful staff, the location, a really fabulous boutique hotel with a fabulous restaurant.

    I guess only comment I'd have is re the pillows that seem not of the highest quality / bit flat and worn-out

    Top-notch boutique hotel. Very central but hidden from loud bars. Amazing attention to detail. Attentive staff. Beautifully decorated with everything you'd need. High quality breakfast.

    A slightly larger room would have been nice but not necessary.
