I had a lovely stay at Hotel Stary. the location was fantastic, right next to Market Square, making it easy to explore Krakow. The stylish design of the hotel creates a chic atmosphere, though my room, while spacious, could've used a bit more comfort. The breakfast was quite varied, although I found it a bit pricey for what was offered. Overall, my experience was mostly positive, but there are areas that could be refined.

I found the breakfast to have a good selection with fresh juice options. however, the cost felt a bit steep compared to other places in Krakow. Despite that, the quality was decent, just perhaps not the best value.

The spa facilities were beautiful and inviting. I didn't get to use them much, but I appreciated the options like the sauna and pool looking inviting. The bar had a nice atmosphere, though I found the drink prices a bit high.

I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Stary, especially for its prime location just off the main square. The spa facilities were a highlight, providing a luxurious way to unwind. However, some room features could use improvement, such as the high bedside cabinets making it difficult to reach water while in bed.

Hotel Stary offers a chic, modern gothic design and an unbeatable location just off the Market Square, making it perfect for sightseeing in Krakow. However, some aspects, such as room comfort and breakfast service, need improvement. Despite these issues, the hotel's elegant ambiance and skilled staff enhance the overall experience.
Rooms

The rooms are stylish with modern design, but they lack comfort. My room had poor lighting, only one pillow per person, and no coffee/tea-making facilities, which was disappointing for a hotel of this caliber.

While the staff was generally helpful, my experience with breakfast was inconsistent due to multiple mistakes concerning dietary restrictions. Management was apologetic but didn't consistently resolve the issues during my stay.

I had a generally enjoyable stay at Hotel Stary, with its prime location just off the main square being a highlight. The luxurious spa facilities were fantastic for unwinding after my busy days exploring Krakow. However, the service lacked warmth, and I was disappointed by the absence of in-room tea and coffee-making facilities.

The spa facilities were amazing-I loved the steam room and sauna! It added a much-needed relaxing touch to my trip. However, I was left wishing for some complimentary snacks in the bar area.

I had a wonderful experience at Hotel Stary, with its prime location just steps from the main square making it easy to explore Krakow. The room was spacious and beautifully designed, though I found the lighting switches a bit complicated. The staff were attentive and helpful, particularly when I needed assistance during my daughter's stay, though I felt the breakfast could be slightly better organized. Overall, I cherished my time here and would recommend it to others.
