We recently stayed at the Stary hotel in Krakow for four nights, and had four disturbed nights of sleep. The design of the place is great visually, but from a sound point of view at night it’s very poor. The metal parts of the bedroom door locks clatter shut, and it seems impossible to close them quietly. The sound echoes... More

This hotel has a great atmosphere and is located in a quite street just minutes from the historical central square of Cracow. Food is good, the staff accommodating and everything works. More

I spent five nights at the hotel Stary during April 2012. The hotel was advertised to be a 5-star hotel, but there is still plenty to do with the management to get to this point. First of all the excellent points of the hotel, the location is superb. It is difficult to get closer to the Old square of Krakow.... More

My husband and I stayed at the Hotel Stary for four nights on a brief vacation to Krakow (amazing place!). The location of the hotel is excellent...close to great restaurants, and very easy walking distance to all the usual tourist sites. The property itself is beautiful...wonderful renovation, with a great combination of the original features of the historic building and... More

Had a really lovely Easter weekend in Krakow, and Hotel Stary made it even better. The rooms were very comfortable, full of luxurious extras like toiletries, bath robes, slippers, drinking water and there was an amazing jacuzzi bath in the lovely modern bathroom. The heating system is quite powerful, so even if it's a snowy weekend don't turn it up... More

I cannot rate Hotel Stary highly enough. The service was impeccable from start to finish. A very helpful Reception who assisted with everything from arranging a 1-2-1 tour of Nowa Huta to booking us train tickerts to Warsaw (language was proving a barrier...) Beautiful, tasteful decor, gorgeous pool (although not as warm as some might like), lovely breakfasts, and a... More

This is a spectacular hotel in a perfect location just steps away from the Krakow market Square. I understand that it's been recently renovated and the public areas and rooms were beautiful. There's a gym downstairs with a stunning swimming pool as part of the fitness complex, unfortunately we'd left our swimmers at home. Two minor niggles stop me giving... More

This hotel is less than 100 meters from the main square in the old town yet in one of the quieter streets so little if any outside noise. The hotel is a boutique style hotel with rooms, junior suites as well as full suites. Facilities, staff and position are excellent. The room has a modern feel yet is structured around... More
