Staying on the boat was such an amazing experience, particularly the glasshouse dining at the back. Note that this being a boat, the walls between the rooms are quite thin and noise does transfer across. ##### Euric Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris 20 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pleasant stay Stayed for 4 nights over the Easter holidays. We stayed in a family room with bunk beds. The room was comfortable and also had a bathroom with shower. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Location was brilliant. A very short stroll over the bridge to the centre of Krakow. ##### Chris Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 13 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing family stay on a boat We were very happy with our stay! The location is perfect – just a short walk to the main square in Kraków, and with a beautiful view of Wawel Castle right from the boat. It was warm and cozy inside, and the experience of staying on a boat was really unique and fun for the whole family. Our kids especially loved the bunk beds! There’s a lovely glass conservatory with a river and Wawel view, and even an aquarium with turtles – such a cool touch. The boat had everything we needed: kettle, coffee, tea, fridge, microwave, plates – very convenient. The boat was moored securely so it didn’t sway at all – we slept great. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Definitely planning to come back. Only positives! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nick 11 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great stay ##### Nick Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Michael 23 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Nice small hostel.

Som namnet antyder är det hostel, inte hotell. Sängar sköna och rena, badrum helt ok. Då detta är ombord en ombyggd pråm är storleken mindre på allt. Köksdelen var kommunal och mycket charmig på inglasat ombyggt akterdäck. Pråmen är förtöjd nära till allt. ##### Jonas Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Axel 20 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Room comfort Betten sind keine 2m lang - das sollte unbedingt erwähnt werden! ##### Axel Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deni 14 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Tutto ottimo ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/847771be-ea73-4320-953a-df9ee0536d97-1749905350654.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/df7ee2ab-7044-41cf-93fb-341cbd8de901-1749905354840.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/daa7fc80-8a11-4abb-9ef7-a80798400dfd-1749905354069.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/11e0794d-6082-4cff-9c83-651d3c026995-1749905355968.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Deni Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Armando C 2 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excelente Me surpreendeu, toalhas e roupas de cama muito limpos, atendimento eficiente.

Los tranvías y buses están a 2 minutos andando del barco y te llevan a cualquier sitio de la ciudad. La habitación tenía 4 literas pero sólo la habilitan para dos personas. El espacio de las habitaciones para dos personas está bien; para 4 sería ya incómodo. El baño está en suite dentro de la habitación. Es pequeño pero cuco. La ducha amplia pero sin embargo el lavabo muy pequeño que con sólo lavarte las manos se salía todo el agua. Te ponen toalla y jabón para lavarte las manos pero no te ponen champú de baño que se hubiese agradecido. La zona común en la popa del barco tiene una vista muy bonita del castillo y la ciudad. Disponía de kettel para calentar agua, café, te, cacao y azúcar. También tenía de una nevera para dejar comida pero no cocina para cocinar ni nada parecido. No se nota para nada el movimiento del agua, sólo muy de vez en cuando si pasa algún barco cursando el rio que haga olas y estas dan en el barco. Experiencia recomendada. ##### ANGEL LUIS Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert 28 Feb 2026 ##### Robert Stayed 1 night in Feb 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yulia 22 Feb 2026 ##### Yulia Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Valentina 27 Jul 2025 ##### Valentina Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [AC Hotel by Marriott Krakow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-AC-Hotel-Krakow.h67292355.Hotel-Information) > - [Gołębia 8 Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Golebia-8-Residence.h6696969.Hotel-Information) > - [Florianska 32 by PI Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Florianska-32-By-PI-Apartments.h39180646.Hotel-Information) > - [Antique Apartments - Plac Szczepanski](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Antique-Apartments-Plac-Szczepanski.h2167130.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Krupnicza 30](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Krupnicza-30.h88847664.Hotel-Information) > - [Central Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Central-Palace-By-Habitan.h34569677.Hotel-Information) > - [G12 Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-G12-Aparthotel.h12226116.Hotel-Information) > - [G12 Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-G12-Aparthotel.h74147615.Hotel-Information) > - [The Bonerowski Palace Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-The-Bonerowski-Palace-Boutique-Hotel.h1790518.Hotel-Information) > - [1891 Garni Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Salomon.h69675699.Hotel-Information) > - [Szpitalna 9 Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Szpitalna-9-Residence.h57230899.Hotel-Information) > - [ Leonardo Boutique Hotel Krakow City Center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Metropolis-Design-Hotel.h8763825.Hotel-Information) > - [Aparthotel Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Pergamin-Apartments-Old-Town.h16004145.Hotel-Information) > - [Betmanowska Main Square Residence Adults Only ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Betmanowska-Main-Square-Residence.h10639967.Hotel-Information) > - [Plaza Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Plaza-Boutique-Hotel.h22294585.Hotel-Information) > - [Express Kraków Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Express-Krakow-Hotel.h920200.Hotel-Information) > - [Ventus Rosa Boutique Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Brilliant-Residence-Aparthotel.h44531984.Hotel-Information) > - [Hampton by Hilton Krakow Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Krakow.h70937934.Hotel-Information) > - [inQse Krakow | Brewery Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-EXCLUSIVE-Aparthotel.h11299480.Hotel-Information) > - [Old Time Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Old-Time-Aparthotel.h108812001.Hotel-Information) > - [Liebeskind Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-ALiebeskind-Boutique-Hotel.h60600221.Hotel-Information) > - [MR67 Mayera Rapaporta ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Aparthotel-Rapaport.h67398705.Hotel-Information) > - [No.23 Premium Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-No23-Premium-Aparthotel.h93701007.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Pod Roza](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Pod-Roza.h1551423.Hotel-Information) > - [Leonardo Boutique Hotel Krakow Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Legend.h16653628.Hotel-Information) > - [Feniks fragola Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Feniks-Fragola-Apartments.h21507818.Hotel-Information) > - [Aparthotel Stare Miasto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Aparthotel-Stare-Miasto.h4310502.Hotel-Information) > - [2 floors apartment with sauna and jacuzzi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-2-Floors-Apartment-With-Sauna-And-Jacuzzi.h33560193.Hotel-Information) > - [Main Square Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Meyo-Apartments.h33616945.Hotel-Information) ---
