Our bright, spacious two-bedroom apartment, situated in a typical Polish town house dates back to the 19th century and is perfectly positioned in the leafy street of ul . Boguslawskiego, home of one of Poland’s greatest Nobel Prize poets (Czeslaw Milosz). The apartment is minutes from the historic Jewish Quarter, the Castle District and the City’s central square and is furnished with a mixture of contemporary and classical styles. We have retained the original Kracowian feel such as parquet floors, high ceilings and chandeliers. The magnificent living room consists of antique furniture, Afghan rugs and two comfortable sofas. There is cable tv, a DVD player and a top-of-the range sound system. In the open-plan kitchen, we have all mod-cons and doors leading out onto the sunny balcony. The master bedroom has a sledge bed and beautiful mahogany and oak furniture. The main feature of the sumptuous bathroom is the free-standing claw-foot roll-top bath.

Location: Krakow in Poland

Nearest Airport: Balice International Airport, Krakow at 10 Kilometres
Krakow is the best-preserved city in Poland, the former capital and seat of the Polish kings and one of the jewels of Eastern Europe. Walking through the Old Town streets is like drifting back through the pages of an historical novel. This is where the Royal Castle of Wawel is located, as is the medieval Cloth Hall (Sukiennice). Krakow boasts churches from every period since the Middle Ages - Renaissance, Baroque, Classicism and is surrounded by monasteries and abbeys. There are opera halls, museums, and other cultural venues, including a centuries-year old university. The student population of the city numbers almost 100,000 and this large student population fires a lively nightlife scene that burns brightly in the atmospheric cellar bars. A visit to the nearby former concentration camp of Auschwitz is an unforgettable experience, as is a visit to the former Jewish district of Kasimierz. Also, don't miss the amazing UNESCO site, Wieliczka Salt Mine.

Krakow apartment

lab23 Hampshire, UK
Review Submitted: March 17, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
We had a week in this apartment and couldn't fault it at all. It's very spacious, the windows are huge and make it very light and the bedrooms are comfortable and bizarrely have paintings of Richmond park on the walls! Kitchen is lovely, was clean on our arrival and boasts an array of utensils meaning you could happily self-cater for the duration of your stay, although we chose to eat out. We had to buy bin bags and washing powder etc though. The coffee machine suffered heavy usage and was easy to operate for a bleary-eyed caffeine fix in the mornings after a few Zywiec the night before. We were there at the tail-end of winter so didn't use the balcony but it would be a nice facility when the weather warms up a bit. Living room is huge and provides a great space to pour over the guidebooks while planning your activities for the next day. The iPod docking station on the HiFi was a nice touch but the piano is in dire need of a tune!. The best thing about the apartment though, is the location. You can be in the main square of the old town in less than ten minutes walk, or in Kazimierz - the Jewish quater - even quicker. Krakow is a beautiful city and our stay was made even better by choosing such a great apartment. On our return there was no problem with getting back the deposit cheque promptly.

Krakow apartment in Boguslawskiega

tsw56 Wimbledon, UK
Review Submitted: October 4, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
Stayed for a short few days in early Sep 09 - self, wife and daughter. Good points - Rafal the owner was very responsive sorting out our stay at short notice, the apartment was comfortable and spacious, and very well located for old town, Jewish quarter, castle and river - not far from any of these. Several great eating places quite near and two handy shops for provisions. What was not so good - the shower (it's a great bath but a basic shower) and the building work nearby which started at 6am. Also the taxi driver from the airport couldn't find the street, this was just bad luck! Summary, we had an enjoyable stay and I recommend the apartment to others.

Fantastic city apartment

Simon Dee Edinburgh
Review Submitted: August 24, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
The flat is located in the perfect position to enjoy Krakow from. Simply 10 mins walk to the main square and also the Jewish quarter it is located in a quiet residential street. Whilst the lady meeting you doesn't speak English, the flat is clean and spacious and everything is easy to find and work. We are a family of 5 (2 teenage girls and a boy of 5) and there was plenty to do and see in Krakow. One warning, if you're not good with steps then the 72 to the 3rd floor might be a challenge.
Rafal, the owner, was helpful and checked everything was OK.
Highly recommend and will return for a short break in the winter. Thanks for a great flat in a spectacular city!

Wonderful Krakow

compbh North Duffield, Selby, UK
Review Submitted: August 19, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We've just returned from a superb holiday in Krakow. Our week got off to great start when we arrived, tired from the airport,and climbing the stairs, to find this jewel of an apartment. It is in such a great location for exploring the city by foot, was absolutely spotless and contained everything we needed for a great holiday. Rafal has really made a comfortable home from home...we absolutley loved the place. For the two of us, the apartment was huge, but would be very comfortable for up to 6.

We appreciated Rafal phoning us prior to leaving for Poland to make sure we were OK and we were greeted on arrival and shown around the apartment. Milk and water had been provided for us on arrival, together with some lovely fresh coffee which we enjoyed all week. There are plenty of nearby stores which provide for self-catering. We took some CDs and DVDs to play in case rain stopped play and enjoyed having this facility.

This was our first ever city break type holiday and so we weren't sure if the city would provide enough attractions to keep us interested...but fear not-Krakow is an amazing place and we would love to go back again.

We had booked 3 tours using krakow-tours.com. The visit to Auschwitz made such a sad and lasting impression, we would highly recommend a visit. A guided cycle tour of the city was great fun and we think this is definitely the best way to get to know the city, including some of the outskirts across the river and Schindler's factory.

We ate out most days and had a pick of a vast number of restaurants providing a huge variety of cuisines.

This has been a very memorable holiday for us and we highly recommend this apartment. Enjoy!

Krakow and Rafal

Review Submitted: August 18, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Spacious elegant apartment which does exactly what it says on the tin. Highly recommended and I'd definitely go back next time I go to Krakow.
Owner, Rafal, is a joy to deal with and helpful over and above the call of duty.
Krakow itself is a wonderful city; better than Prague in my opinion. Great value for money too, but go before the euro replaces the zloty.
