Poland Adventure Holidays

The breakfast cost £14pp for 'very' watered down orange juice and cold beans every day. Not something I would expect from a hotel of this status.

We had a great stay in Wroclaw and the hotel was great in many ways. However, we had not been alerted to the fact that renovations were being done on the rooms in the 5th floor. Yet, we were still assigned a room immediately below the one that was being renovated. For 2 out of the 3 mornings, we were woken up at 7:00am with loud released noise and pounding on the ceiling. We complained but nothing was done about it except to tell us that they were renovating. Interestingly the noise seemed to stop after 10:00am, which is puzzling. Apart from this significant inconvenience for which there wasn’t even an apology, everything else went well. Thankfully the 3rd morning was a Sunday!

Good: modern hotel with a seaview and beach access. Pool facilities and sauna were great Con: bathtub knob fell off, wasn't properly maintained

The hotel is very well located close to the old city and has very comfortable rooms and great breakfast

If you are visiting Kraków and want a hotel that truly feels exceptional, Hotel Stary delivers on every level. From the moment you enter, the design sets the tone. The interiors blend historic stone, glass, and contemporary furnishings with effortless sophistication. Every detail feels intentional, and the rooms are wonderfully comfortable. The linens alone deserve mention—soft, luxurious, and the kind that make slipping into bed feel like a reward after a long day exploring the city. What truly sets Hotel Stary apart, however, is the remarkable spa and gym hidden in the historic stone cellars beneath the hotel. The pool is spectacular, framed by vaulted brick ceilings and atmospheric lighting. A lap current allows you to swim continuously, while fountains add a calming element to the water. The wellness area also includes a salt cave, dry sauna, wet steam sauna, and a beautifully equipped gym—all designed within the dramatic medieval architecture of the building. It’s rare for a city hotel to combine this level of design, comfort, and spa experience so seamlessly. Hotel Stary manages it effortlessly, creating a stay that feels both luxurious and deeply relaxing. A truly memorable place to stay in Kraków.

Staff at the front desk is unpleasant. When I booked my mom‘s the room I immediately texted the hotel that all is paid incl. breakfast and that mom should not be asked for any additional money at the time of checking in etc. Of course nobody „remember“ and the receptionist was adamant with the request that my mom pays upfront for bar use either 500zl or 100zl. Mom called me; I then talked over the phone with the receptionist and he still was pressing upfront payout incl. that he could send the link to pay to me. I was livid at that point. I asked to speak with the manager and mentioned that it is again the same story at this hotel. Eventually my mom signed the document that she will not be using anything from the room‘s bar. What the hotel did later was below 4-5 star hotel - they came and remove the room bar. I have never and my mom too, been treated at the top rated hotels like that. We will never stay in or recommend this hotel to anyone.
