Large and Comfortable Apartment - Five Minute Walk to Square
- Minimum stay:N/A
- Internet:Yes
- Pets allowed:Yes
- Wheel chair accessible:No
Our beautifully appointed apartment -in a building with elevator - offers the rare combination of space and elegance a mere stone's throw away from the magnificent Central Market Square, Krakow’s architectural jewel, and at a remarkably affordable price. You will love being close to restaurants and theatres, and stroll through Krakow’s cobblestone streets minutes after you set foot outside our apartment.
Appointed in a contemporary style that takes full advantage of the sunny exposure in the morning as well as the sun streaming in during the afternoons and into the early evenings, our apartment was completely renovated in early 2007. We have, of course, preserved the 19th century oak wood floors throughout, and 10 feet/3 meters tall ceilings. The living room has two comfortable couches, which may easily be converted in additional and very comfortable sleeping space for up to three more guests. There is cable TV of course, including a choice of over 500 channels, as well as a CD/DVD player. And all throughout the apartment you have free and unlimited access to very high-speed Internet access by WiFi connection. We also provide you with a cellphone as well as a fixed phone, so you may be in touch with each other and loved ones elsewhere as you would back home.
A fully-equipped kitchen awaits you, including a large kitchen island with breakfast bar, and a solid oak dining table that easily seats 8 people. The kitchen has all the modern amenities you expect, including a large refrigerator, microwave oven, full oven, water boiler, coffee maker, bread toaster, juicer and a number of additional items which make spending time in the kitchen area all the more pleasant.
Your apartment has two bedrooms, a master bedroom with a double bed, as well as a second bedroom with two single beds). Both bedrooms are away from the street, so there is no noise to disturb your sleep. As said, a fifth, sixth and even seventh guest may be accommodated comfortably in the living room.
The bathroom is beautifully appointed with tens of recessed halogen lights, and includes a clothes washer and heated towel rack for your convenience.
We are child-friendly! This means that we have a crib/cot ready for you, including linen, as well as a high chair, and you will also find electric outlet plug-in covers waiting for you.
Although we prefer a two-night minimum stay, we are very flexible. Our apartment is therefore ideal whether you wish to stay for a night or a month. Prices for longer stays are of course negotiable.

The apartment is ideally located close to the spectacular old market with its great market square and many amenities. Minutes away one will find food shops, bakeries, post office, pharmacies, and a farmers market. (if you can, go early Saturday morning to see the stalls overflowing with local produce). On our arrival we were greeted by the local property manager who efficiently helped us settle in and made some last minute accommodations. We were made to feel that if the need arose we always had someone to connect with. The apartment is on the fist floor and quite large. Our group of five (teenagers and adults) could easily disperse and find a quiet corner or gather round in the open kitchen and dining area or living room. Every one was pleased with the accommodations and as much as Krakow has to offer for the tourist we all looked forward to geting back to the apartment after a day of sightseeing. Communication with the owner was easy throughout. This is a great address which I will certainly recommend.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, families with young children, families with teenagers.

Our family of four most enjoyed our week in Krakow and in this lovely apartment. The space, the furnishings, and the amenities contributed to a "home away from home" at the end of a day of touring. The kitchen, in particular, is very well-appointed to prepare both a simple meal and something more complex with your purchases from the local markets. The location is outstanding. We felt that we were in the heart of Krakow, yet enjoyed quiet nights at the end of the day. And Sylvia, the manager, is a gem!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, families with young children, families with teenagers.

We stayed in the apartment for 5 days and we loved our time there. The layout and size of the apartment is great allowing plenty of room for 2 couples. We used the kitchen a lot and we had everything we needed. There is a smaller supermarket around the corner, and a farmers market a few steps further as well as a bakery. Also the big supermarket is at the Galleria shopping center. We took the taxi from the train station and the cost was just a few dollars. The walk to the Main Square is literally a 5-7 minutes and there are plenty of restaurants there to choose from. We will recommend this apartment to anyone we know going to Krakow! Thank you again.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, families with young children, romantic getaway.

Thank you, Caspar, for a great place to stay in Krakow. The apartment was actually bigger than we expected, but everything else was as described. We found everything to be clean and well appointed, and your property manager is a gem! The location is ideal for exploring the many sights in this lovely city. Thanks also for your informative emails and suggestions. Next time we go to Poland, in a couple of years, we hope the apartment is available for a stay.

My sister-in-law, my wife and I stayed here for two weeks in June/July 2011. The apartment was great and the pictures we had seen on the internet very much described this apartment. The gentleman who picked us up and also returned us to the airport was great, as was Swylia who came to show us around the apartment. The apartment was very nice and the location was very convenient to all places. Krakow is a beautiful city and there is lots to see and do. This is our third visit to Krakow and this time we had more rain than we ever had before. We didn't let the rain stop us from enjoying our vacation in Krakow and we had a great time. The apartment owner, Caspar was very helpful in negotiations for renting this apartment. We would highly recommend the apartment to any one who is visiting Krakow.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers.

We were struck immediately upon entering the building with the old world atmosphere of high ceilings, marble (maybe) walls and floors, cool interior on a hot day. We were a trifle disappointed that the elevator had been broken for what seems to be a long time, but the disappointment didn't last. The apartment itself is just wonderful. Spacious, with a very old world feeling yet the modern appliances and necesseties that make a vacation comfortable and enjoyable. The rooms are huge. One thing that has been lacking in our previous rentals is comfortable seating in the living room. That's important to us because we don't go out gallavanting at night but sit and read our books. Well, there is plenty of comfortable seating--more than enough, We just loved everything about this space. I echo what everyone else has said: this is the best place we've rented, and we rent apartments frequently when we travel. The location is perfect. Just far enough from the Old Town to be calm and serene, but just close enough to be able to make short forays if one wants without having to think about a long walk back and forth. The supermarket is right around the corner and so is the farmers market. A ten minute walk takes you to the Galleria, a shopping mall that you thought you left behind in the U.S. suburbs! I couldn't imagine staying anywhere else in Krakow. This place is IT!!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

...and I've stayed in a few. Good points: Location Furnishing Equipment Comfort Quiet (well, for Krakow!) Convenient Beautiful decor Use of all mod cons including cable, local landline and mobile Knowledgable local host (Sylwia by name) Economical Challenging points: Lift (elevator) doesn't work the Polish door lock system seems to trouble some (but not us) - hence written instructions are provided! You need to leave in the end...! I would (and indeed already have) recommend it to friends and colleagues, and will definitely be back if I can. Don't bother with others at the same price - this one is almost certainly better!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, families with young children, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

My wife and I stayed here over Christmas week. The listing was acurate and the photos were spot on but, the apartment was so much nicer than we were anticipating. The space is very roomy and comfortable and there were many little touches of luxury and comfort that made our stay very enjoyful. The high ceilings, long hallway, design of the bathroom, and building enterance really gave us an understanding and appreciation for living in Europe. We were assisted with our transportation schedule to and from the airport and the apartment keys were delivered to us. The location is just a short walk to the old city, many local restaurants, markets and public transportation is close by as well. Would recommend this apartment very highly to anyone looking to experience Krakow. A real gem!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

I cannot recommend this apartment enough. From the start, Casper was quick to respond to our stay request, and the price was more than reasonable. We were looking forward to our stay because it sounded like a central location that could accommodate the six of us (us, three kids, and my mother-in-law). Prior to arrival, we contacted the housekeeper, Sylwia, to arrange a pick-up time for the keys. When we finally got to the apartment - wow! It was huge, two big bedrooms, large living room, huge kitchen - much more than we expected. Everything is newly renovated, very clean, lots of personal touches throughout. The old town section of Krakow was a very short walk, there was an open market around the corner, and everything was convenient. Thanks to C&L for a great place to stay!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, people with disabilities, girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
