What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
This chic boutique hotel sits between the old market square and Kazimierz. Charming bedrooms come in brown and silver and feature the latest mod cons.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Planty parkland sits right outside, with the cafés of Kazimierz and Wawel Castle both an easy walk away.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling windows brighten brown and silver interiors, and Deluxe rooms open onto balconies looking toward Wawel Castle.
The spa
Treatment beds sit beneath original brick barrel vaults, and a candlelit relaxation room adjoins a two-person Finnish sauna.
Amarylis Restaurant
A lit brick tunnel leads to vaulted cellar dining rooms, where morning buffets give way to French-influenced tasting menus.
At the table
Bartenders shake cocktails and pour sommelier-selected wines at an illuminated white bar beside backlit bottle shelves.
How it began
The lobby was once the building caretaker's apartment when this was a nineteenth-century residential tenement.
