Situated in Old Town Krakow, the Hotel Stary has captured the grandeur of the hotel’s past while showcasing the erudite décor. The renovations have resurrected what was once a marvelous merchant’s home, dating back to the 15th century. Voted “the most beautiful hotel interior design in Europe,” any guest of the Hotel Stary can surely attest to its elegance and stylish accommodations. The sensual blend of decadent interior design and historical architecture has created a distinctive atmosphere that is both gothic and modern.

The 53 guestrooms and suites of Hotel Stary continue this same aesthetic theme with period wood and leather furnishings, hardwood floors, and natural silk. The bathrooms are beautiful and functional with Italian marble and onyx designs, heated floors, and a Jacuzzi tub. Some rooms offer private balconies overlooking Old Town and Market Square, and most feature beautifully renovated frescoes dating back to the original construction.

Guests can enjoy a well-equipped fitness center, swimming pools, and spa located in the cellars, which create a romantic ambiance with the pools' medieval vaulted ceilings and beautiful tile mosaics. You can also feast on savory dishes from the seasonal menu of the Trzy Rybki Restaurant or take in the stunning panoramic views from the rooftop patio of the Sky Bar.

Hotel Stary offers the perfect locale for those staying in Krakow for leisure, but there are also plenty of amenities on-site for business travelers. Whatever reasons for coming to Krakow, there are very few hotels that can rival the beauty and service of Hotel Stary.
