Ibis Budget Krakow Stare Miasto

“Ideal for a short stay”

We stayed here from 2nd January for 3 nights. We found the location great for the train station and a massive shopping mall. Around 10 minutes walk to the old town square. Obviously depends on how fast you walk. The room itself was very clean. Small and compact, great blackout blinds and we never heard anything from outside. The bed I found ok , I found that the light to the toilet coming on for about 5 minutes when you walk in really inconvenient as I am a light sleeper and it wasn't good that If I went to the toilet in the middle of the night, I couldn't get back to sleep afterwards due to the bright light. On our last night I took out the key card from the holder and lo and behold no light! 😃 Wished I'd done it earlier but I thought it would knock the plug socket off , which was needed to charge phone. Staff at reception were lovely and helpful. Especially the girls. We had breakfast once which costs a little over £10 . It had nice choice but was a bit chaotic at the time we were there. Loved Krakow and how Christmassy it was. Some places were really cheap and others extremely expensive. We found a fantastic polish restaurant called bar Smack. Amazing food and really cheap. There was a queue outside to get in. Also tried Moo Moo burger, really good 👍 We will definitely be back

“Close to centre but LOUD”

It was about a 15-20 minute walk from the main square which meant it was in an ideal position especially as it was right next to the train station as well.

It was about a 15-20 minute walk from the main square which meant it was in an ideal position especially as it was right next to the train station as well. The room was as expected for a budget hotel, small but clean and usable. The shower is right next to the bed which is a bit inconvenient if sharing with people other than your partner. Due to it's central location it is very loud outside. You can hear the tram announcements clearly even with the windows shut. It is right next to the Ibis (non-budget) hotel so can be confusing as to which entrance to use. The staff in the other ibis hotel reception were quite rude and seemed to look down on us for staying in the budget one.

Chosen as last minute , next to main train station but rarely heard trains unless they whistled Ok location 20 mins stroll to Krakow main square. Great shopping center for breakfast, drinks etc 5 mins. Reception helpfull Clean and tidy. Due to price expected basic but Rooms small And very very basic. TV in room but 31 polish channels 1 USA news catch up(didn't worry us as not in room much) Beds hard with thin mattress topper that moves off the bed as you sleep!! Shower good step out to side of bed needs a hand rail as awkward yo get in and out of. loo( very low, auto bright light with pull shut catch so no going in quietly during night ,basin in room. No kettle or anything Only have continental breakfast as no kitchen. Can go next door to the Normal Ibis for buffet @ £15 pp (not worth it) This was ok for couple of nights,we did 4🥴
