Wonderful location, located by the Wawel castle & just a short stroll to the main square. Plenty of coffee shops, restaurants & convenience stores within minutes. Ate dinner in the fabulous on site restaurant. Had a room at the front of the hotel overlooking the street, so did get noisy late at night & into the early hours of the morning as it got closer to the weekend. Very courteous, helpful staff.
