Come experience the magic of Krakow in our brand new, superbly decorated apartment in the heart of historic Krakow (Ul. Lobzowska). You won't be disappointed in this luxuriously restored 19th century living space complete with a high, chandeliered ceiling, antique parquet floors and granite entryway. Combined with the modern conveniences of high speed Wi-Fi internet, satellite TV, fully equipped granite kitchen, central heating, air conditioning and all the latest.
This sunny, light-filled environment in an off-street setting provides a safe and quiet experience thanks to 24-hour security and an underground parking garage for your vehicle. Step outside our door and find an Italian ice cream and pastry shop. Stroll down the neighborhood streets to witness the ambiance of the imposing 19th century architecture.
We are 5 minutes walk from the largest (and most beautiful!) medieval market square in Europe where you can languish over coffee or wine and stroll around absorbing the incredible sights of the Renaissance Sukiennice Cloth Hall (selling Polish arts and crafts), St. Mary's Church (listen for the hejnal - a trumpet tune played from the tallest tower at the top of the hour), and a fabulous line-up of renaissance and medieval townhouses.
Enjoy Krakow's many delicious and charming restaurants, fine shops and exquisite cafes (we have favorites on a list for you in our apartment). Don't miss the Czartoryski Museum, the home of Da Vinci's famous painting, "Lady With an Ermine", as well as many other fine museums tucked around the Old Town. Catch the opera, ballet, theater or philharmonic while you are here, all within walking distance. In the evenings don't miss Krakow's famous jazz club cellars. There is no end to enjoyable pastimes.

Stunning Accommodation in the Old Town
Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Krakow (Cracow)
Our family is fortunate to have had the opportunity to live in Poland for 4 years while on a business assignment. We are not of Polish ancestry but found a place in our hearts for the spirit and determination of the Polish people and thoroughly enjoyed our travels around the country. When the assignment was over and we were sent back to the US, we decided to buy an apartment here so that we could come back and visit our adopted country. We chose Krakow, the pearl of Poland, where charm radiates from every inch of its medieval streets and squares. We promise you will fall in love with it too!!

Enjoy Krakow's lively cafe, restaurant and club scene too. You will find a broad array of activities to fill your time, or simply plant yourself in a cafe on the main square and watch the world go by.
