Loved our amazing historic king suite at reasonable cost. Walk 5-10 minutes to Wawel Castle grounds or to the beautiful and massive square for a horse and carriage. One of the nicest European hotels ever and we’ve been to the best. Love the dry sauna and little pool downstairs to refresh.

Wonderful reception staff both day and night. I was always greeted when enteribg the hotel. The building is beautiful and the roof terrace is a haven. Only thing pulling the wxperience down was that after a super long day I was looking forward to room service but despite the menu on the room stating it was available until 23.00, when I called at 20.55 I was told there was no food, only drinks. Also the person answered me very shortly and hung up without saying goodbye or apologising. Other than that, I am more than happy and will definately consider the Copernicus for future trips to Krakow

Hotel is beuatifully designed and well maintained, staff helpful and courteous. Location is perfect, next to Wavel and market. We did not have breakfast, so cannot comment. The only downside - Restaurant is highly priced for a restricted menu of over-the top fancy menu which was not disappointing.

As you enter, you are greeted by friendly receptionist. The building is historic. The rooms mainta.in this history and provide modern conveniences. Everywhere you want to go is a short walk away. The street is quiet. The food to die for! The breakfast is delicious and provides many options. Do make reservations for dinner as it will be the best dinner you have ever had. Dinner was exceptional, mouthwatering flavors and impeccable service.

Super find.

Absolute terrific find. Really large twin room- lovely style furniture, very modern bathroom, very comfortable bed, great l'occitane toiletries. Little pool and sauna to use with soft towels and dressing gowns and slippers available. Staff extremely polite and helpful. All in all an absolutely great stay. Only slight disappointment was there wasn't a bar but you only needed to venture outside for an enormous choice available to you.
