Guest guide

Your stay, step by step

Advice from guests who actually stayed at Crystal Suites Old Town — the single most helpful tip for each part of your trip, in the order you'll need it, from booking to your last morning.

Booking

Check the website photos and confirm the exact apartment, shower type, and bed size before booking because every unit differs.

Transport

Arrange airport transfers through reception or escape2poland.com instead of taking an unbooked airport taxi; one reported fare was 105 zloty versus 65 zloty returning.

Rooms

Choose room 9 for two bedrooms, two bathrooms, generous space, and a balcony; expect some morning street noise.

Dining

Visit Cupcake Corner downstairs for a cupcake, and avoid rooms directly above its entrance if you are sensitive to morning noise.

Activities

Book your Auschwitz tour in advance and make time to visit Krakow’s old center.

Location

Walk 10–15 minutes to the market square for food and shopping; the surrounding streets are quiet but busier in the morning near a private school.

Service

Use the secure main-door key access and the reliable Wi-Fi for multiple devices.

Tips & Tricks

Bring a fan in summer and request larger bath towels if needed.

About Crystal Suites Old Town

Crystal Suites Old Town is for travellers who prefer the character of a private city apartment to the routine of a standard hotel. Each intimate suite pairs bright, polished contemporary interiors with individually chosen furnishings, fabrics and artwork, while fin-de-siècle details bring a touch of Krakow’s old-world elegance. The result feels refined but lived-in: a smart base where you can settle in rather than simply sleep over.

The apartments sit in central Krakow, within easy reach of the Old Town and the Main Square, with tram connections nearby for exploring further afield. Fully equipped kitchens make them especially handy for longer stays, families, couples wanting more space, or business visitors who appreciate independence and privacy. It is a strong fit for anyone keen to experience the city at their own pace rather than follow a hotel timetable.

Guests often describe the apartments as lovely, well-equipped and reassuringly home-like, with the kitchen and generous apartment layout frequently appreciated. The location earns particular praise for making Old Town sights easy to reach, while the nearby tram adds practical appeal. The prevailing feeling is of a comfortable, self-contained stay that combines Krakow atmosphere with the freedom to live a little like a local.
