Flott hotell sentralt i Krakow

Fint hotell sentralt i det jødiske kvarteret i Krakow. Selv om det er et eldre hotell, var det godt vedlikeholdt, og veldig rent og fint.

Nie polecam,drogo ale brzydko

Hotel nie jest na poziomie hotelu 4 *. Brudna recepcja, balagan na pulpicie robia zle wrazenie przy wejsciu.W lazience niedorobki, w pokoju wiszace kable od telewizora, ktorego nie mozna wlaczyc. Wygodne lozko. Okropna jadalnia z brzydkimi lodowkami, sniadanie podane niechlujnie, jedzenie niesmaczne, zeschniete pomidory z mozzarella, jajecznica zimna, masla brak - jest tylko margaryna. Mila obsluga.Cena nieadekwatna do jakosci

Pleasant hotel in the Casamierz district. About 20 min walk to the Old Town. Room comfy (with minbar and room safe) and staff pleasant and helpful. Breakfast very basic but cheap at 6GBP a head.

Trevligt läge i de judiska kvarteren.

Hotell med vänlig personal. Frukosten var inte direkt överdådig men ingick i ett bra rumspris. Personalen är hjälpsam och tillmötesgående. Lugnt område trots det centrala läget. Trevligt restaurangtorg utanför.
Mattias, 3-night trip

ravintolapalvelu ei asiakasystävällistä. Vain yksi nuori pitkä miestarjoilija oli erittäin ystävällinen. Vanha mies tarjoilija erittäin töykeä. Vastaanotto palvelu erinomaista.

It is a great little place, the room was small but the whole decor was beautiful. Great service people and wonderful location.

- one of my Krakow favorites

The only negative was the ongooing renovation, causing fine white dust everywhere - this will end! Hotel Ester is a nice hotel, well located for the lively Kazimierz area.

Hotel Ester

This is a fun place to stay in the Jewish Quarter, with many truly excellent restaurant options available, including the hotel restaurant. The room was quite clean, very quiet, and charming. The only problem was the WiFi. It was only accessible in the reception area and restaurant. I was unable to access it in my room (on the first floor). I told the staff every day I could not access it. One person said she would have the router restarted, but others would just shrug.
