The staff was welcoming and helpful. I asked for additional power near the desk for charging multiple devices and it was sorted in Immediately. Room was clean, comfortable and large.
Localização maravilhosa ao lado do castelo de Cracóvia, prédio histórico belíssimo, café da manhã excelente, produtos super de qualidade, quarto amplo e confortável. Facilidade de estacionamento. Esperava apenas um recepção mais calorosa por parte dos funcionários, quem sabe um drink de boas vindas um mimo no quarto, pelo nível do hotel, esperava mais neste quesito, mas no restante excelente.
Fabulous from booking in to booking out. The spa was superb. The staff were exceptional recommending local restaurants and packed breakfast one morning we left early.
I’m going back here soon.
This is our third stay at Hotel Copernicus spanning 20 years, and it was another exceptional experience. The team made my husband’s 60th birthday unforgettable with sparkling wine, a handwritten note, and a superb seven-course tasting menu. The chef’s food was truly outstanding — we have eaten in several Michelin-starred restaurants, and he is certainly worthy of one. Kasper and Sylvester were exceptional hosts, and the chef’s surprise birthday cake was a lovely finishing touch. Elegant, warm, and consistently excellent — Copernicus never disappoints.
Loved our amazing historic king suite at reasonable cost. Walk 5-10 minutes to Wawel Castle grounds or to the beautiful and massive square for a horse and carriage. One of the nicest European hotels ever and we’ve been to the best. Love the dry sauna and little pool downstairs to refresh.
Really lovely hotel, so convinient for old town and what I wanted to see. Pool and spa are lovely too as is the roof top terrace.
Staff are great and were really helpful in helping me make the most of my trip. Would highlt recommend
Wonderful reception staff both day and night. I was always greeted when enteribg the hotel. The building is beautiful and the roof terrace is a haven. Only thing pulling the wxperience down was that after a super long day I was looking forward to room service but despite the menu on the room stating it was available until 23.00, when I called at 20.55 I was told there was no food, only drinks. Also the person answered me very shortly and hung up without saying goodbye or apologising. Other than that, I am more than happy and will definately consider the Copernicus for future trips to Krakow
Hotel is beuatifully designed and well maintained, staff helpful and courteous. Location is perfect, next to Wavel and market. We did not have breakfast, so cannot comment. The only downside - Restaurant is highly priced for a restricted menu of over-the top fancy menu which was not disappointing.
Great location in the old, historic part of town. Classic, historic hotel with underground pool and sauna. Wonderful breakfast. Highly recommend this hotel.
As you enter, you are greeted by friendly receptionist. The building is historic. The rooms mainta.in this history and provide modern conveniences. Everywhere you want to go is a short walk away. The street is quiet. The food to die for! The breakfast is delicious and provides many options. Do make reservations for dinner as it will be the best dinner you have ever had. Dinner was exceptional, mouthwatering flavors and impeccable service.
