Top Wawel Castle Hotel Reviews

Hotel Rezydent

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location just a few feet from the main square - perfect location for tourists. The hotel is in an older building but the bathroom is brand new. The hallways and rooms still have original but updated decor, with upgrades added like in-room safes and hot water kettles. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and arranged airport transfers for me o. Arrival and departure. Everything you could want is within steps, including stores, shops, and al fresco dining. The hotel has a great restaurant featuring pizza and Polish food, and they put on a very nice breakfast every day from 7:00 to 10:00 and if you can’t make that, they will pack you a take-away meal. Take I to account that this is a very busy area and it can be loud - so the hotel provided ear plugs so that when it was bedtime I just used them and I was able to sleep, but it can be loud, especially on weekend nights. Also, there are no USB ports and in my small single room there was only one wall plug, too far from the bed for me to keep the phone next to the bed. Also there is no AC, and while I was there the elevator was out of service, but they helped me carry my bags upstairs. I would stay there again, even knowing the minor drawbacks I have mentioned - great staff and location!"
