Great place. I would recommend it to everyone who wants to spend their free time in Cracow. Nice…read morerooms with double bed, tv and wireless internet. Place is not very big (only 7 rooms) so you feel like at home. I really liked the kitchen and the fact that I could make myself cup of tea during the day.

For a city trip to Kraków we rented one double room and one single room in the Sofia Bed &…read moreBreakfast. We stayed there for 5 nights. The rooms were clean, the interior was beautiful and the rooms were large enough. WiFi was free and it worked fine. Sofia B&B is located about 11 km from the city, but the market square is easily reachable by public transport in just over half an hour. Bus stop Bielany Szkoła is very close to the B&B and several bus lines go from there to Salwator, where one can switch to tram line 1 or 2. The owner, Maria, was very hospitable and did her utmost to ensure that we had a pleasant stay. Unfortunately she didn't speak English, but her daughter, who was also very kind and attentative, helped to talk to her. The choice at breakfast was overwhelming: sausages, boiled and fried eggs, fruits, cucumber, tomatoes, you name it. It was all delicious and much more than we could possibly eat. Maria was worried that we didn't like the breakfast because in her opinion we ate so little. With help of her daughter we could convince her that we liked the breakfast very much, only we are not big eaters. Every evening when we got back, we got tea with cookies and even small cakes for free, just to make us feel at home. On the final day, after payment and checkout, we left our luggage there and went to the market square one more time since our flight home was only in the evening. When we came back, we got drinks and cookies again, and Maria offered coffee and tea also. She and her daughter both called taxi companies to make sure we would get a taxi in time to get to the airport. Again great service! If we ever go back to Kraków, we will definitely stay at Sofia Bed & Breakfast again.

First of all it is 5* hotel in the Krakow city centre, I was attending private event in there and visited Café Ulala and Burlesque Club.. Both places are beautiful and comfortable. And both are in the same building as hotel. Upstairs in the café you can eat and have a coffee in warm and soothing colours. Downstairs is club with music to dance and bar to have a drink, also the cloakroom is available. It is modern and sophisticated in the separate Diamond Room which is in white and diamond colour. In between the floors is great staircase leading to the rooms , covered with carpet. Great chandelier is really nice. Staff was very helpful and polite, drinks served and made quickly. Prices are decent but the place is luxurious and worth to visit. I like the adaptation of the building... Worth to recommend for people with good taste...

It was comfortable with a double bed and excellent and clean facilities. The staff were wonderful and very helpful. They gave us excellent guidance and recommendations, we also booked a couple of trips through the reception. They were so accommodating and we were able to have a relaxed evening drink in the bar/breakfast room. The staff really made us at home and were always polite and considerate. The hotel is close to shops and is only a 10 minute walk to the nearest tram stop, which takes you straight into the town centre. The excursions also pick up directly from outside the hotel. I would definitely go back based on the pleasant and wonderful experience.
A big disappointment. Unbearable heat…read more When you see pictures of the lobby and feel the comfortable climate, it seems inviting. But then you walk into your room. It was like crossing into a bad neighborhood. The rooms are uninhabitable in the summer as it was hotter than outdoors with direct sunlight and no climate control. It's a noisy street as well, so it meant trading an open window for the sounds of noisy cars. The rooms themselves are quite bad with exposed concrete and torn wallpaper. Ultimately, we had to check out 2 days early and move to a hotel that didn't have unbearable heat in the rooms. They did not offer a refund on the 2 days we would not be staying. 1 star since 0 is not an option.

The location is great--close the the Main Market Square but not IN it. It's about 4min walk from the main square--which means it's quiet and not super crowded at night when sleeping, but also not far from the fun! A nice cafe is on either side of the apartment building, which is wonderful for breakfast! The room itself was newly lovely! We were downstairs in a newly renovated two bedroom apartment. It had a spacious bathroom with beautiful shower and sleek sink (and towel warmer). The bedrooms and living area were a lovely mix of both modern and old world charm. Exposed brick and old world furniture juxtaposed with clean lines in the kitchen, light fixtures, & bath. Very much appreciated the small (but new) washer for our clothes as well! No dryer but a drying rack was provided. Overall we felt this was the perfect place to stay while visiting Krakow!

There was a miscommunication regarding our check out date the next morning, and I was more than willing to pay the extra fee for an additional night.

Tried to charge me 3x the original amount for the room and was very unwelcoming/unpleasant.

The breakfast is included and begins from 8.00. But you can ask also for earlier breakfast if you need and they will prepare it for you. You can take the coffee, fruit, cakes here whenever you want and it's free. So just help yourself. The location is also perfect, just ten minutes walk to the old town square and 15 min from train station. You can also book the trip to salt mine or Auschwitz directly at the reception and the guide will come to pick you up at the hostel. I really like it here!
Overall we had a wonderful time. It must first be said the location is great and the staff is…read moreexceptional- the staff absolutely operates at a 5 star level. However, the building is showing some signs of wear in the hallways and, in the case of our room, our hot water wouldn't remain a consistent temperature. It would fluctuate from hot to lukewarm/cold and mostly hang out in the lukewarm region. The staff moved us to the room under it of the same class but it ultimately had the same problem. Did not attend or pay for breakfast. We would go back. Thanks especially to Sofia and both Kingas for their exceptional 5 star service.

We ended up staying in 2 different rooms after adding an additional night after original checkout. Rooms were spacious, we were able to get a comfortable nights sleep, and the surrounding area was quiet. Nice buffet breakfast (at a reasonable fee) served in the dining room downstairs. So many choices plus fresh made egg dishes served from the kitchen. Bonus for us was a decent sized gym. It's rare we can squeeze in workouts while traveling, but they had a nice variety of equipment to use. About 5 minute taxi ride to the train station.

One of the best hostels I have been to and would stay at again to if I ever go back to Krakow.

The suite has it's own kitchen and nice furnishings. The shower did not always have hot water, but you could use the showers for the 10-person rooms which worked great. I would DEFINITELY stay in the suite again! However... Our first night there we stayed in the 10-person rooms, which were much less nice. People at the desk were always friendly! The wifi is pretty spotty, but you can use the 3 computers that they have in the lobby/check-in area at any time of day, and they always had internet.

They try to help with whatever you need and if you have questions (like how to use their transportation system). They have a restaurant that opens from 6 am to 10 pm. This was very convenient for us since there was no other options available close by. If you want to have breakfast, just tell them the night before. It costs $5 per person with decent enough variety. I had no expectations for our stay. We had problems opening the door as it was almost falling off the door. The curtains need to be fixed from their clipping fixtures. They did have extra sheets and the one I used was very itchy. The main thing that was hard to tolerate was not having decent towels. They gave us really old and stained bath towels. I'd compare it to rugs. Even my dog had better ones. I wish they'd consider providing better ones in the future. No housekeeping except for daily taking out the trash and giving us daily bottles of water (which was free). I have to say, nonetheless, that this place was not a 4 or 5 star hotel but we enjoyed our stay here.
A very nice place to relax and take it all in. All, in all they work hard to keep you happy...:)read more
