Regent hotel

Comment

we asked for a high level floor and non-smoking. Maybe due to the fact smoking is everywhere in Poland they put us on a high floor (smoking)over-riding the non smoking request. Non-smoking is floor 1. Didn't realise how much fresh air means. Great breakfast btw.

Plenty of vegetarian choice around Krakow which was a pleasant surprise for an eastern european country. I don't like shopping but the shopping mall by the train station is a pleasant experience.

We enjoyed our visit. Hotel was clean, food good and staff were friendly. In a run down area and I was accosted at the hotel entrance by a man who was begging insistently.

Four days Wed to Sun was ample. We booked tours with the Information Office across the street from the hotel. A walking tour round the old town on Thurs; a trip to Auschwitz on Friday; Info Office advised taking a service bus to the Salt Mines on Saturday which we did successfully. We ate evening meals in restaurants in the Old Town and were well pleased with quality and price.

very central, staff extremely helpful- modern facilities in period building in Jewish section of Cracow. We would use Regent again

Top Tip

Book a taxi to find hotel on your first night - our driver had to stop and ask directions a couple of times

Comment

We were given a ground floor room with windows opening on to the pavement and road. This caused problems re security, and people seeing in. Unfortunately as the temperature was 30 - 32 and there was no air conditioning it made the room extrememly hot all the time. There was a fan, but it only moved the hot air around. Should of asked to move rooms. Good taxi service arranged by hotel straight to airport.

Top Tip

Very near the Jewish quarter which had the very best of restaurants. Go out of hotel and turn left walk down crossing about 2 or 3 roads and then turn left down one and hey presto there you are.

Comment

We were disapointed in the room allocated to us, especially when we saw the spacious rooms next door at the end of our stay. We had booked our room in March.

Top Tip

Plenty of restaurants in the Jewish Quarter of Krakow, also not very far from the old Town

Comment

Good location and reasnable price. Handy for both Jewish Quarter and Old Town. bedrooms could have been better equipped eg no hair dryers, poor quality beds and duvets.

Top Tip

Head for Old Town and eat Polish. Lonely Planet has some great restaurants Chopsklie Jadio, Georgeski (Georgian Food), U Backi.
