Prepare for stairs: rooms start on the 2nd floor, apartments may be on the 4th or 5th, and there is no lift.
What guests mention
Guests most often highlight the exceptionally central setting, which makes Kraków’s Old Town easy to explore on foot, and several notice the convenience of having a kitchenette or shared cooking space. Practical arrival details also come up repeatedly, particularly the main entrance and luggage, so it is worth confirming these arrangements before travel. The available comments lean more toward useful location and facilities notes than detailed assessments of service or room comfort, leaving a less complete picture of the overall stay.

About NOVUMHOUSE
NOVUMHOUSE is a polished Old Town base with a light, contemporary look and the practical ease that suits a short city break or a work-focused stay. Rooms and apartments are clean-lined and well equipped with air-conditioning, Wi-Fi and cable TV, while private bathrooms come with the useful essentials. Some apartments add a kitchenette, and a shared kitchen gives everyone the option to make their own breakfast or simple supper.
The address is the real draw: Kraków’s Main Market Square is around three minutes away on foot, putting cafés, museums and evening strolls immediately within reach. Wawel Castle is about a seven-minute walk, while Kazimierz is 1.3 km away; the main station and Galeria Krakowska are also walkable. It works especially well for independent travellers who want the Old Town on their doorstep. Reception hours are limited to daytime, though help is available by phone around the clock, and the on-site tourist information desk can arrange tours, bikes and airport transfers.
Guest comments often circle back to the central location, with the kitchenette also standing out as a handy extra. Mentions of the main door and luggage point to the small practicalities of arrival, so it is sensible to confirm access arrangements and any luggage needs ahead of time—particularly for an early or late check-in.
