Hotel is in a good position in the old town. The spa facilities and small gym were very good. Staff were courteous and helpful. We didn’t eat at the hotel but I’m sure we wouldn’t have been disappointed. The room was a good size and comfortable. We would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Great płace to stay if you want to explore Bialystok. It is located in a very central location. Close to Branicki Palace and lots, and lots of restaurants. My room was spacious and bright with a very comfortable bed. Hotel is new and clean. There is a parking for 40 zl a day. Excellent free spa with spacious two saunas, jacuzzi and a salt cave; very clean and quiet. We had great stay in this hotel.

Loved it!
Air conditioner was literally blowing cold air to your face when you were sleeping. You are unable to adjust airflow direction. For that reason we had to turn off air conditioning all together and slept in a hot room. No chance to open windows as streets were very noisy and crowded. Other than that - FANTASTIC! Great location! Great rooms! Comfortable beds! Large bathrooms! Clean! Friendly stuff - especially this overnight security! We checked in around midnight and went straight to bed. If you check in during a day and can let air conditioning run while you are not there, it would probably solve the “hot room” situation. I have no idea why the hotel does not cool the rooms beforehand. 🤔

Dear Madam, Thank you for your feedback. We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay with us. Hopefully you will visit us again. Air conditioning is only turned on before arrival upon request of customers. Many guests do not wish to use AC due to allergies etc. Best regards, Katarzyna, Reception manager.

I was able to check in 2 hours early which was very important to me and meant I could charge my phone and then get on with enjoying my stay in Bialystok. Reception were positive and friendly. The room was large, comfortable, a good temperature, had great facilities like tea and coffee making options, robe, slippers, lots of storage space, spotless modern bathroom with plenty of towels. My favourite thing was the beautiful view I had of the church across the road, the large windows let in lots of light and there were two pillow chocolates and a free bottle of water (one carbonated, one still). My second stay here as it is top class. Will always be my go to place in Bialystok.

Incorrect information on Hotels.com.
I booked this stay during travel to Riga Latvia. We booed here because they claimed they had laundry facilities on location. Well come to find out they did not and that is the only reason we stayed there. Please update the accommodations list to reflect that they DO NOT have laundry facilities on site.

After reading reviews about how certain rooms experience noise at night, I emailed the staff and asked for a quiet room. They reminded me that my reservation entitled me to a second floor room when I arrived I noted that my room faced the courtyard. It was a nice quiet night. But I think the Poles like to party because a very friendly swaggering man entered the lobby early the next morning. Security asked him to leave and he politely complied. The breakfast was amazing. Food is great in Poland.

One night stay at crystal was enough as it was very noisy. Our room overlooked the road and the windows did not block out noise of traffic and people. The good thing was the breakfast which was excellent. Moved to the Ibis which proved to be much quieter.
