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 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael 23 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Nice small hostel.

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 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel 9 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Cheap and cheerful and ideal for a city break. Here to see the city and just need somewhere to rest my head. Was perfect. Not here to spend a fortune on convenience and over priced rooms that I later regret ##### Daniel Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 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 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexandra 21 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stanza piccolina, bagno minuscolo ma tutto molto carino e pulito, la vista dalla finestra meravigliosa ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8cf28437-94ea-4522-a290-ee7143bde7ab-1766304090564.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Alexandra Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### alberto 15 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Qué puedo decir,el personal muy amable,la ubicación perfecta, cercana a todo a pie o en transporte público, la habitación excelente, no le pide nada a ningún hotel de “mayor categoría”. No se por qué cuando me hospedé creo que fui el único huésped del día, siendo que en cuanto a calidad-precio, lo que ofrece es increíble. Si vuelvo a Cracovia claramente volveré a hospedarme aquí, y recomiendo a todos quienes tienen pensado ir, que se alojen aquí. 10/10 ##### alberto Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christian 9 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Die Übernachtung in der Koje auf dem Boot war eine besondere Erfahrung. Das Boot liegt zentral vor Anker und eine Haltestelle der Flughafenlinie 300 gibt es quasi vor der Haustür. Habe die kurze Auszeit in Krakau in vollen Zügen genossen. Die Dusche ist modern, das Handwaschbecken eher was für Zwerge. ##### Christian Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jonas 16 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A little pearl of a 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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 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 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Valentina 27 Jul 2025 ##### Valentina Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tom (Milosz) 23 Jul 2025 ##### Tom (Milosz) Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kerry 13 Jul 2025 ##### Kerry Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Monica 24 Apr 2025 Liked: Staff & service ##### Monica Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MARICLA 30 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### MARICLA Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### MARICA 22 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### MARICA Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Old Town Residence - Premium Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Old-Town-Residence-Premium-Aparthotel.h72988060.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Wentzl](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Wentzl.h1669938.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Grand Krakow Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Unicus-Palace.h18436288.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Maximum](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Maximum.h45430238.Hotel-Information) > > [Metropolo by Golden Tulip](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Metropolo-By-Golden-Tulip.h31697361.Hotel-Information) > > [Venetian House Market Square Aparthotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Venetian-House-Market-Square-Aparthotel.h6071168.Hotel-Information) > > [Aparthotel Stare Miasto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Aparthotel-Stare-Miasto.h4310502.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Jan](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Jan.h2693247.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Wawel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Wawel.h2693296.Hotel-Information) > > [Focus Hotel Premium Kraków](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Garden-Square-Hotel.h40886694.Hotel-Information) > > [Amber Design Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Amber-Design-Residence.h29746886.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyspianski Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Wyspianski-Hotel.h790500.Hotel-Information) > > [Betmanowska Main Square Residence Adults Only ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Betmanowska-Main-Square-Residence.h10639967.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Boutique Hotel Krakow Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Legend.h16653628.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Plus Krakow Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Krakow-Old-Town.h1109882.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel H15 Francuski Old Town - Destigo Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-H15-Francuski-Old-Town-Destigo-Hotels.h541802.Hotel-Information) > > [AC Hotel by Marriott Krakow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-AC-Hotel-Krakow.h67292355.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Krakow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Krakow.h78193179.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Unicus Krakow Old Town - Destigo Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Unicus-Krakow-Old-Town.h2733032.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bonerowski Palace Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-The-Bonerowski-Palace-Boutique-Hotel.h1790518.Hotel-Information) > > [Plaza Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Plaza-Boutique-Hotel.h22294585.Hotel-Information) > > [Balthazar Design Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Balthazar-Design-Hotel.h33339543.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Saski Krakow, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Saski-Krakow.h2034801.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Rezydent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Rezydent.h1109602.Hotel-Information) > > [Antique Apartments - Plac Szczepanski](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Antique-Apartments-Plac-Szczepanski.h2167130.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Mint Apartments Main Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Luxury-Mint-Apartments-Main-Square.h24452611.Hotel-Information) > > [Fragola Apartments Old Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Fragola-Apartments-Old-Town.h23051904.Hotel-Information) > > [H15 Palace, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Krakow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-H15-Palace-Hotel.h52545974.Hotel-Information) > > [Feniks fragola Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Feniks-Fragola-Apartments.h21507818.Hotel-Information) ---
