What we write about

For 15 years we have been running apartments in Kraków: in the Old Town, Kazimierz, Kleparz, Podgórze and in quieter districts with good transport links.

Every day our guests ask us the same questions: what to see in one weekend, how to get from the airport, where to eat well away from the tourist trail, and when is the best time to come.

On this blog we gather those answers in one place. You will find district guides, sightseeing ideas, practical tips before your arrival and news from our apartments.
