Globtroter - Krakow, Poland 

Location

This guesthouse lies in the heart of the old town, less than a minute’s walk from the main square with its Basilica of the Virgin Mary. However, if you look out of your window or step out the door, you cannot help but wonder if you are in the countryside. Follow the cobbled paths and you will reach the centre of the medieval royal city where there are many theatres, museums, clubs, restaurants, bars and other establishments which cater for your cultural and entertainment needs. As well as Częstochowa with its miraculous painting of the Black Madonna, the Zakopane mountain resort, Dunajec River gorge where rafting is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Europe and Pieskowa Skała with its Renaissance castle, there are many places accessible from Krakow such as:

Wawel Castle – approximately 10 minutes walk away: The seat and resting place of the Polish kings and queens.

Kazimierz – approximately 20 minutes walk away: Discover the old Jewish quarter’s unique atmosphere of its historic past while strolling its narrow streets.

Auschwitz-Birkenau: The infamous concentration camp set up in 1940 contains the largest shoah cemetery for the European Jews exterminated by the Nazis.

The Wieliczka Royal Salt Mine – 35 minutes away by local minibus: This attraction is registered on UNESCO's First World List of Cultural and Natural Heritage.
