Hotel Pod Roza  

In the heart of Kraków's Old Town, on the Royal Route between Florianska Gate and the Main Market Square. Steps from St. Mary's Basilica, Lost Souls Alley and within a short walk of Wawel Castle, the hotel puts you close to the city’s top sights. Pet-friendly and centrally located for sightseeing.

Housed in a restored Renaissance palace and refurnished in 2020, this is Kraków’s oldest hotel with historic polychrome walls, tile stoves, woodblock floors and a recurring rose motif. There are 56 individually decorated rooms, including 11 suites, each with air-conditioning, minibar, LCD/plasma TV, laptop-safe and complimentary high-speed internet. Bathrooms feature luxury Italian fittings, natural stone tiling and heated floors; some rooms offer rainfall showerheads.

Relax in a cellar spa and wellness area with massages, body treatments, hot-stone therapies, vichy and horizontal showers, Finnish and steam saunas. Stay active in the 24-hour fitness center. Concierge and wedding services are available, and a roundtrip airport shuttle runs for a surcharge. On-site parking, elevator access and weekend live piano in the dining area add to the experience.

Complimentary high-speed internet throughout the property and a computer station in the lobby. Services include dry cleaning/laundry and lobby newspapers.

Two elegant restaurants sit under a glazed roof, led by the fine-dining Pod Roza and an intimate Chef’s Room serving a curated menu. A bar/lounge and limited 24-hour room service round out options. Continental breakfast is served daily (fee), and weekend live piano complements dishes that highlight local Polish flavors.
