This beautifully renovated hotel is part of Relais&Chateaux, so expectations were high. On arguably Poland's oldest street. We used a last minute Booking.com offer, very good price. Postiives: the in-house restaurant, and generally friendly staff, and the basement mini-pool, a unique setting. To look out for: One of our two rooms, 302, you should avoid as it can get very...

This hotel is fabulous! Excellent service, beautifully restored and located just a five minute walk from the market square and right at the foot of the stunning Wawel Castle. Full marks all round for this establishment!

The Copenicus is an outstanding hotel. The front desk served us well, the room was very good, quiet, clean and well serviced. The breakfast was very good and the morning wait-staff the best. It's location served us well to see the sites of Krakow. Krakow is a great city. It is very clean and safe. Prices are reasonable and there... More

This hotel is ideally situated on a small cobbled street which runs between the castle and the town square. All the major tourist attractions are within easy walking distance. We slept well, undisturbed by traffic noise which can plague many city centre hotels. There was a delightful buffet breakfast with hot food cooked to order. Dinner in the hotel was... More

Long weekend in one of the loft rooms. Great room, huge bathroom with great large shower enclosure. Roof terrace is great offering spectacular view of the castle especially at night. We paid £85 per night for a double inc a full breakfast.

We booked this hotel through an online travel agency for a four night stay with friends and we could not have been more pleased. A lovely old building beautifully restored.

Arrived home yesterday after spending 2 nights here. From our arrival, the staff were courteous and very attentive - even had my bag carried to my room! Not sure if that was just because I was the only female travelling with 3 blokes, but, it was very nice all the same! We stayed in room 302 on the 3rd floor... More

We stayed at the hotel last weekend and had a wonderful time. It was my fourth trip to Krakow and this was the best hotel I have stayed at, though it does come at a price as more expensive.

As the title says, a fantastic night sleep albeit in an overpriced room. No shower, just a pull out shower hose on the bath and they claim to be 5 stars!?!? The swimming pool in the basement looks very cool BUT at one end just above the surface of the water is the metal-work for the walkway that's above. So... More

Dear Copernicus Friends, We are grateful for your opinion. It is first time we got complains about the structure of the swimming pool. Your comments are important for us and we would take it under careful consideration. Despite the swimming pool inconvenience we hope you had a pleasant time in Krakow. Best personal regards.

Pricey but very cool hotel. Historic charm, cool downstairs mini swimming pool and sauna. Huge glass roof over center. Place was clean and everything worked. Don't miss the roof deck. Great location near Wawel palace and river. 5 min to main square.
