Apartamenty – MI Stare Miasto

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first heard “Apartamenty – MI Stare Miasto,” I wasn’t sure what to expect from a 3-star place in the Old Town. But you know what? Sometimes the unassuming spots surprise you the most. This little gem sits right in the heart of Stare Miasto (that’s Old Town for those brushing up on their Polish), and I mean actually IN it – not one of those “near the historic district” places that’s actually a 20-minute walk away. The moment you step outside, you’re surrounded by those gorgeous cobblestone streets and medieval architecture that makes Krakow so ridiculously photogenic.

What really struck me about this place is how it feels more like staying in a local’s apartment than a typical hotel – which, given the name, makes perfect sense. The apartments have that lived-in comfort that’s hard to fake, with kitchenettes that actually work (I made coffee every morning, and honestly, having real mugs instead of those tiny hotel cups was a game-changer). The building itself has character – you know, the kind with thick walls that keep things surprisingly quiet despite being right in the tourist zone. I was worried about noise since Old Town can get pretty lively, especially on weekends, but the windows did their job well. The 9.1 rating isn’t just inflated review scores either – you can tell the owners actually care about the details. Fresh linens, everything clean without that overwhelming chemical smell some places have, and the WiFi actually worked consistently (which, let’s face it, isn’t always a given even in nice hotels).

Here’s the thing that sold me on this place – it’s positioned perfectly for exploring without making you feel like you’re living in a fishbowl. You can walk to the Main Market Square in maybe three minutes, grab fresh bread from one of those little bakeries that locals actually use, or duck into a milk bar for cheap pierogi when you’re tired of restaurant prices. But when you want to escape the crowds, you just slip back to your apartment and suddenly you’re in this quiet courtyard where the only sounds are maybe some distant church bells or the clip-clop of a horse carriage a few streets over. I spent a week there last September (perfect timing, by the way – warm days, cool evenings, and way fewer tour groups than summer), and by day three I felt like I actually lived there. The check-in was refreshingly straightforward too – no lengthy presentations about spa services or breakfast buffets, just keys and genuine recommendations about where to find the best zapiekanka after midnight. For the price point, especially considering you get apartment-style space in prime Old Town real estate, it’s honestly hard to beat.

• Virginia from Italy (10/10)

  Appartamento molto grande. Ottimo per 2/4 persone. Si trova esattamente in piazza a Varsavia, è comodissimo per girare a piedi la città e prendere anche mezzi pubblici perché a pochi metri ci sono fermate di tram e autobus. Il proprietario è stato molto gentile e disponibile, gli abbiamo chiesto un phon perché non c’era in appartamento e lo ha portato subito. Risponde velocemente ai messaggi.

• Bartomeu from Spain (10/10)

  En la misma plaza principal del casco antiguo. Con vistas traseras a la catedral. Imposible estar más céntrico. Puedes visitar todo a pie. Rodeado de restaurantes y sitios para visitar.

• Mariagrazia from Italy (10/10)

  posizione eccellente!

• Nla from Denmark (9/10)

  Fantastisk beliggenhed midt i den gamle by. Vinduer til kirken og ikke til torvet, så der var nattero.
  Meget rent. God madras/seng i soveværelse, men smallere end dobbeltseng. Dejligt brusebad med masser af varmt vand. Ville absolut bo der igen.
