"My husband and I were in Krakow April 23 to 27, 2009, and wanted to stay at the Ibis, but since there was no room, they recommended the Kossak. And are we glad they did that!! This new hotel is beautiful, clean, and with wonderful service. All the staff spoke English. The room we got was on the fifth floor and had a great view of the Wawel Castle and the Vistula River. The restaurant (Percheron) served a good, tasty breakfast. We did not have dinner there as we wanted to try the many different restaurants. The room itself was very modern and impeccable. Bed was good and firm. One problem is the strange pillows - one is very large size and the other very small size. We could never figure out what to do as neither one fit the purpose. The air conditioning worked wonderfully. The water pressure was good, and the temperature hot. The toiletries were of good quality, but the housekeeper was on to me and my usual habit of collecting them; she did not replace all those little bottles I had kept hidden in my suitcase. There is a large Jubilat supermarket in the same block, which made it handy when wanting to purchase candy or chocolate or something to munch on in the room. The location cannot be beat! We walked around and found the Stare Miasto in no time. We plan to visit Krakow again and will definitely stay at the Kossak. Thank you for your hospitality." ~Octavia Hathaway, Seattle Washington USA

"Cons: Bathroom vas a little dirty. And it would be good if there where some cleaning equipment in the room." ~Krislin

"Pros: The property is basic but nice and clean and everything we needed for a long weekend in Poland. Only a short walk to the old town which is lovely and close to supermarket. Our flight back wasn’t until evening and the owner allowed us to keep the room on until we needed to leave in the evening as no one else was due in after us, this was very helpful and much appreciated! Cons: The property was great but there was a funny smell in the bathroom which I think was coming from the drains. But other than that couldn’t fault it for the money." ~Marie

"Pros: The location could not have been better. The apartment windows are also facing the inner yard, so decently quiet. Cons: The apartment was small even for two people, definitely not meant for stay over a day or two." ~Lesya
