It is my understanding that this hotel very recently, underwent a renovation. That being said, when the room was booked, we booked a king. Kings are no longer an option in this room post-reno, so we dealt with a queen. This information was not relayed to us and no other options were provided. The room was TINY. A constant scent was sprayed into the room from somewhere and it wasn't exactly subtle. Location and breakfast was good. View was excellent. Bed was comfortable.

Short City Break

Hotel was clean and comfy. The reception staff were always very helpful. We booked our trips to the salt mine and Auschwitz through the hotel. View over the castle and river was amazing. Probably one of the best hotel room views we have ever had. Hotel is only 5 min walk from the old town.

Rooms are a good size and a good standard for a 4 star hotel. Great location to get to all the main attractions and walkable to the main square. The reception team arranged tours to The salt mines and Auschwitz which came to the hotel to pick us up I would highly recommend this hotel and would stay here again if we return.

Friends Birthday Vacation

The hotel is very nice and is in a good location. The views from the rooftop bar were amazing. I was disappointed in the view from our room as I paid extra to upgrade to a room with a castle view. I have attached a photo of the view from my room which was on the first floor. I do not think I should’ve had to pay extra for this view. The regular rooms were the same size. Some of the service on the rooftop bar was poor also.

Great room, freindly staff.

So this hotel is a 20 minute walk from the station and by the castle side of the city. It doesnt look much from the street but we booked a superior room overlooking the river and it was spectacular. The room was spacious with 2 bathrooms and a really comfy bed. I think this room catered for 4 people so we had plenty of room and two large tvs. The hotel was really clean and staff friendly and we used the roof top resturant and the food there was great. Only slight negative was the gym, we like to work out when we go on holiday and one treadmill and a couple of weights (not heavy) is all that was there. Defintely would go back though it was good value for money. Recommended 5 stars.
