Hotel RT Galicya - Krakow, Poland 

Comfortable in Krakow
Posted: Sat, Jul 05 2008
Modern hotel block in a suburb of Krakow at a good price. Rooms were very clean and simply furnished in a cheap way, with comfortable beds but flimsy bed linen. TV with a single Euro News channel in English. Surpisingly good shower and bathroom. No air-con but room was comfortable anyway in the mild spring weather. Breakfast, served from 7 to 10 a.m. in a bright and airy restaurant, was a pretty reasonable buffet. Mostly cold stuff as per local tastes, though also a limited hot plate, with scambled egg and frankfurter sausages. Bar prices were, unsurprisingly, high by Polish standards. Reception desk helpfully provided a three pin adaptor when I discovered I had forgotten mine, and were generally very pleasant and courteous throughout. The hotel is in a quiet spot, although only a hundred metres or so from a main road with both bus and tram routes into the old town. Trams 8, 10 and 40 reach the old town in 10 - 15 minutes and run until just after 11pm for the return home from the centre. There is a small cigarette kiosk near the tram stop to buy tickets for the tram, though it is difficult to spot; persist, however, because buying tickets from the tram drivers costs a little more and seems to be more than a nuisance to them! The 10 and 40 trams stop close to the main railway and bus stations, so proved useful for the journeys to and from the airport.

a great holiday

4 miles out of town on frequent tram route. Architecturally dull but spotless inside. Most friendly & helpful staff. Rooms fair size, ample storage, matching furniture design. TV includes English news channel. Excellent buffet breakfast, well stocked for most international tastes. Evening meals modestly priced and of good quality and quantity. Menu with English translation. All in all good value for money. The hotel is one of three in the city chain. My wife and I (in our sixties) would happily return.
