Barbakan Residence occupies a newly built wing of a restored townhouse on Zacisze street, right beside the Planty park. Both the name and the interiors nod to the Barbican, which stands a few steps away. The whole building has been thoroughly renovated and has a lift.
There are three apartments to choose from, ranging from 27 to 72 m². The two smaller ones are studios for three and four guests, and the largest has two separate bedrooms and sleeps six. Each one is air conditioned, has a private bathroom and its own kitchenette with a dishwasher, and guests share the laundry room in the building.
The location combines two things that rarely go together. Galeria Krakowska and St Florian’s Gate are a two minute walk away and the Main Square five, yet the lane itself is quiet. The locks are code operated, so you can check in at any hour from 3:00 pm, and you can leave your luggage in the luggage room.
