Hotel is in a great area for access to all the beautiful sights of the city which is beautiful. Room was lovely and luxurious but I was disappointed as there was no bar or communal area in the hotel apart from the restaurant The reception is small and access is immediately up the staircase or lift. It felt as though the hotel had been split off somehow. It did not impede on our trip as Krakow is so picturesque.

The property is absolutely beautiful! Within walking distance the main square and so many great restaurants. The staff and customer service is exceptional. The rooms are beautiful and the beds and pillows are super comfortable. Only downfall is that there is no pool or gym. They do have a partner hotel that offers these amenities down the street for an extra fee. Overall, absolutely beautiful property!

No parking - didn't find out you could pay extra to have them park for you until 3rd day. It was a struggle since my husband is mobility impaired. Parking in town is EXTREMELY limited. Also there is a Hotel Unicus close by - we started at the wrong hotel. Our room key quit working every day - minor inconvenience.

Great location in Old Town. Most comfortable bed we had during a month of traveling around Europe. Classic, historic building but with modern features. Very clean. Friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast is extra but there is free coffee available all day, and free snacks (including wine!)in the afternoon. Highly recommended!

Hotel está muy bien ubicado caminas a todos los lugares, el estacionamiento es complicado, el que está cerca cuesta 50 € medio día, es mejor usar el que está por el castillo cuesta menos de 10€ por día y te mueves en Uber o transporte para regresar al hotel . No hay aire acondicionado (no lo necesitamos) tuvimos muy buen clima, el Internet y la TV iban y venían no hay buena cobertura de wifi , el personal muy amable siempre! El desayuno muy completo hay de todo un poco mucho mejor de lo que me esperaba! Si te toca cuarto a lado de la calle si hay ruido en ciertas horas de la noche !

We absolutely loved this hotel! We drove in to Krakow in the late afternoon and found the driving in the old city area pretty challenging. The front desk staff were absolutely amazing and helped us get our car parked and took out all of the stress with trying to navigate the streets on our own. The rooms are beautiful and the whole hotel feels clean, modern and the service is just excellent. Breakfast were phenomenal! We walked everywhere from this hotel and totally enjoyed our experience. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Great location in old town though somewhat difficult to access by car. Had to violate a couple “no entry” signs to get there. Nice and friendly staff. Everything on par with expectations in this luxury labeled hotel, with exception of electrical issues causing non-working lift one day followed up by non-working air conditioning in our room the next day.

Loved the room we were in - very nicely decorated. The hotel is very convenient to the Old Town, only a few minutes to everything. Only downside is no parking onsite, but they park rhe car for you, so still convenient. Definitely recommend.

Dachgeschoss Zimmer mit Dachfenster, aus denen man nicht rausschauen konnte. Beim Saubermachen umgekippter Stuhl wurde liegen gelassen. Leere Flaschen wurden stehen gelassen. Statt kleiner Handtücher, drei Duschvorleger;). Der Flur war nicht sauber (voller angesammelter Staub). Insgesamt ok, aber bei der nächsten Reise dorthin werde ich ein anderes Hotel wählen, sicherlich eines mit Bar, an der man abends noch mit Leuten sitzen und etwas trinken kann.

Really nice looking hotel, and good breakfast. Unfortunately there was too many things that was not so great, and not to be expected from a five star hotel. One out of two spot lights in the bathroom was broken, which made the shower section quite dark, and despite mentioning it several times in the reception, who promised to send someone to fix it, it was not fixed during our 4 night stay. Despite having renovated the hotel recently, the window in our room was very thin, and hardly dampened any of the noise from the street outside. There was not blackouts curtains in our room either, so the room was completely light very early in the morning, which did not comprehend well with the late night noise. When we arrived there was only a half full roll of toilet paper in the bathroom, and no spare ones. We thought that they would fill it up the next day, but that didn't happen, so we ended up having to ask for more in the reception so that we wouldn't end up running out. The overall cleanliness of the hotel was not that good either. When we arrived in the room I noticed a dead fly on the floor next to the wall. It was very easy to spot, so I left it to see if they would remove it at some point, but they never did. Also the hallways was definitely not cleaed often enough. So even though the hotel was looking really fine, there were too many errors/faults for a five star hotel, or any hotel for that matter.

This is a very good hotel. Clearly recently renovated, appliances are new. Reception employees are excellent. They raise overall the rating of the hotel to me. Polite, accommodating, attentive, kind and approachable, professional and multilingual. Room functionality was off you can hear what happens in the room next to you: we woke up one night from people having sex. Very clear audio. Everytime other room occupant close the door, the lamps in our room would shake loudly. Function for room service/do not disturb didn’t work. Heat/AC didn’t work properly, always blasting cold air, and if turned off - it would get hot and stuffy quickly. Mattress was covered with a plastic protectors which makes you sweat, so points taken for that. Giving this hotel 4 Stars because of location, newly renovated interior, and wonderful employees.

We stayed at the Unicus Palace Hotel for 3 nights. From the moment we walked in, the staff were very helpful and friendly. Our room was large with a king size bed, which was extremely comfortable. The room is beautifully decorated. Bathroom is large and again beautifully decorated, including the bonus of underfloor heating. Large wardrobe with plenty of space, including a safe. Kettle with tea and a coffee machine to use. Mini bar is well stocked, though like all mini bars expensive to use, recommend to check the mini bar menu in the shelf above kettle to check prices. There is a restaurant in the hotel, we didn’t use it but it did look lovely. Location of the hotel is ideal, bars and restaurants around as well as a very short walk to the market square. We are already planning a return trip and will definitely be staying at the Unicus again.
