Good value for money, super location
Great hotel and location, great breakfast. I was here with a school group and the hotel was perfect for our needs. Room was very comfortable with a lovely view of the street. Hotel was very clean and in perfect condition. We ate in the hotel in the evening which wouldn’t recommend and the only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars. If you don’t want dinner in though it is worth 5 stars!

Too many problems for one night
At my arrival after a 5 hour drive the lady at the desk told me that there was unfortunately a problem in their system. Due to this problem they've had to cancel my reservation and sent me to another hotel. All this happened without asking for my name, so as I arrived at the other hotel they've told me that the reservastion Hotel Alexander made was on another name and not on mine. At the end I could stayed at the second hotel. Then the next problem started because as I was on a business trip I needed a company name on the invoice but still after one week I'm waiting for this invoice. 2 calls, 2 emails and nothing happened yet. Not recommended!

Nice value near Old Town
Great location and excellent breakfast buffet. The hotel is very close to the Old Town so walking to the main tourist sites is easy. The rooms are sufficient size-wise and function-wise.

The hotel was clean modern & comfortable. Rooms were cleaned every day. We heard no noise from other rooms (we visited Mon-Fri). Breakfast buffet was served 7-10 & had a wide selection of items available. There are tea/coffee making facilities in each room & a water carafe, there is a drinking water point in the hallway. Only English TV channel available was Euronews, We arrived before 11am and were able to store our luggage securely and walk (5-7 minutes) onto the main square. On checking again we were able to leave luggage & make the most of our last day in Krakow.
