What it’s good at
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
In contrast with its surroundings, the Puro is contemporary to the core, and the rooms recall the heyday of 20th-century European modernism.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The hotel stands in the historic Jewish quarter, steps from the Old Market Square's rebuilt Renaissance townhouses.
The rooms
Shower screens carry a color gradient drawn from vintage Polish glassware, and rooms are trimmed with rounded timber beading.
The spa & gym
At the table
Nifty serves modern Polish dishes beside a leafy garden patio, with leather banquettes modeled on vintage train carriages.
How it began
Archaeological excavations on site uncovered an intact medieval brick wall, which was dismantled and rebuilt inside on the ground floor.

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
