“Copernicus review”
The hotel is in a great location, in a quiet side street. We were upgraded to a deluxe room, which was of a high standard. Our only disappointment was that we had a shower only, and did not have a bath. The staff are very friendly, and completely professional, in all tasks. The breakfast buffet was of a good standard, with plenty of variety. I would definately reccomend the hotel, and would stay there again.
“Great service”
We had a lovely stay at Hotel Copernicus. We were particularly impressed by the quality of the staff - friendly, helpful and quietly efficient. The hotel is in a wonderful location for exploring the old town. If we return to Krakow, and I hope we will, we will defintely return to this hotel.
“Highly Recomend”
What a great place. Location is perfect for visiting all the sights in Krakow. The staff was friendly and efficient. The breakfast was very tasty, with a nice selection each morning. The pool was just wonderful, great way to relax after a day of sightseeing or a break in the afternoon. Can't say enough good things about the visit to this hotel.
“Lovely hotel”
Excellent location. Good choice at breakfast. Reception staff speak excellent English. Free internet in lounge.
“Very impressed”
Very impressed with this hotel. It has an excellent location, just at the foot of Wawel Castle, and only minutes from the Market Square. Room 203 looks down the old Kanonwicz Street with views of the castle. Rooms are spacious. All staff encountered during the stay were courteous and polite, and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was good. Personally I believe this to be one of the best hotel's in Krakow and I would certainly recommend it to others.
“Beautiful, atmospheric hotel”
We found this hotel just lovely to stay in & it's in a superb central yet quiet part of the old town. Our room, which looked out onto the street leading to Wawel castle - about 2 minutes walk away- was huge and simply yet tastefully decorated. The staff were warm & welcoming & when we returned at night the hall- way was always lit with candles. We can't wait to go back.
“Luxury under the Castle”
OK, my husband and I don't normally stay in hotels of this standard so I might be biased here but I thought it was just lovely. The staff were very friendly, the breakfast buffet was great (super coffee), the best was big and comfey - my only gripe was the room was a bit on the warm side. All in all, a room of this standard in the UK would have been double what we paid with undoubtedly surly staff.
“Copernicus Gem”
Superb hotel full of charm and character and very well located in the best part of Krakov. Krakov itself is a wonderful city. Very friendly and enjoyable.
“Excelent Hotel in ideal location”
Excellent location, central for the Castle and Old Quarter, but quite at night. Brilliant service, friendly staff. Nothing was too much trouble.
“Cracking Krakow Copernicus”
A really great hotel - with one of the best breakfasts on the planet. Sophisticated but small enough to be personal - wonderful decor with covered courtyard where you breakfast and a swimming pool and sauna to boot. Highly recommened
