What guests think

Across recent reviews, travellers describe Happy Tower as a budget-friendly, centrally located base with easy tram and train access, walkable to Old Town and major sights, offering simple, functional rooms that suit short city stays.

Many mention spacious, modern apartments with basic kitchenettes, though thin walls and nearby trams create recurring noise for some. Cleanliness is frequently praised, but several reports cite inconsistent housekeeping, worn towels, and occasional maintenance issues; staff are generally friendly and helpful, with reception handled in the bar and hours limited at times. Expect a simple, well-located stay focused on value and convenience.

Good location. Poor communication from hotel. Advertised available parking was mediocre, it was impossible to communicate with him. The room was very dated and run down. Evidently, the online pictures were taken many years ago. Room and objects needed to be cleaned. Advertised amenities were lacking - TV was broken and covered with a dark plastic, cooking fan was broken, heated Towel rack was broken. Sink plugs were missing. Sinks barely drained. Pillows and mattresses were thin and uncomfortable.

Perfect location for exploring Krakow between the old town and Jewish quarter. All main sites walkable and close to a pick up point for the Auschwitz and Salt mine tours. Clean, modern apartment and bathroom with basic but adequate kitchen facilities for breakfast, although the bar does have breakfast available to purchase. Friendly staff, discounted drinks, bag storage on our last day was really useful.

The reception is not at the entrance of the building, & no clear indication of where it is. It is in the bar around the corner & should be clearly marked at the enterance of the building. Otherwise location is excellent as the hotel is within walking distace from main square, Wawel castle & Jewish quarter.

To confess I didn’t know about the free breakfast. 🙃 But the flat was very nice. Good value for money too. I was able to do two weeks of washing, then dry everything inside the flat on the drying hooks inside. No oven, but everything else. Very clean, quiet, comfortable and warm. Pleasant staff too. Just a shot walk away from the centre and the castle.

チェックイン時と朝食時には、客室から数戸離れたPoli Barに行く必要がある。チェックアウト時は、カードキーを所定の箱に入れるだけなので楽ちん。部屋は比較的清潔で、冷房も冷蔵庫もあり、特に不満な点はなかった。口コミでよく言われているベッドの硬さも個人的には気にならなかった。近所にはŻabkaもあり買い物にも困らず、旧市街までは歩いて10分ちょっとでアクセスも良好。ただし、最寄鉄道駅はKraków Grzegórzki駅で、中央駅までは結構歩く必要がある。

Walked into a lovely large space, decent kitchen space, nice bathroom. Just needs a good cleaning however. The floor had not been cleaned; hair on bathroom floor and lots of dust in the corners and absolutely filthy walls. The towels could only be described as rags. Empties from the last clients still in the cupboards. Did enjoy the lemon vodka welcome drink!

Prima kamer (nr 2), goede ligging. Helaas erg gehorig, je hoort alles wat er buiten en binnen gebeurt heel goed. Zelfs de deur was niet geluiddicht. Wij hadden de pech dat ze sochtends rond 6 buiten al aan het klussen waren een aantal dagen. Ook is de wc zo geplaatst dat je er niet normaal op kunt zitten. Tevens is de afzuiging in de badkamer niet zo goed waardoor vocht van het douchen lang blijft hangen.
