The mid-range Hotel Santi is a boutique property with Old-World charm just off Krakow's Main Square and close to sights, shops, and dining. The 20 romantic rooms are unusually spacious for Krakow and come with flat-screen TVs, sitting areas, and mini-fridges, although some lack air-conditioning and just have fans. Trams pass directly in front of the hotel, which can make crossing the street tricky and cause noise for front-facing rooms, however, they don't run at night. The hotel lacks a full restaurant but its cellar bar has lovely exposed brick and a free champagne buffet breakfast with cooked-to-order items is popular. Limited parking is available just next door, though advance booking is needed and it's at a fee. Amber Hotel is farther from the center, but it has a fitness center and small spa.

The 35-room Wielopole Hotel is a value property located between Krakow's Main Square and the buzzing Kazimierz district. Small but stylish and romantic rooms have flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi, although bathrooms are compact, not all come with mini-fridges, and some have unattractive building views. Additional downsides are the lack of fitness and meeting facilities. Still, it has a vegetarian and vegan restaurant that gets great reviews and offers a free buffet breakfast. Note that a fee applies for guests bringing pets and there's a charge for cribs. It's worth comparing rates with Andel's Hotel Cracow, which has a spa, gym, and in-room minibars.

Hotel Copernicus is a upscale hotel located inside a 15th century building in Krakow's Old Town. The public spaces and most of the 29 guest rooms feature stunning examples of original architectural details like 16th and 17th century frescoes, vaulted ceilings, and exposed wooden beams. Rooms can be dark and a bit severe for some tastes. The swimming pool and spa are located in the atmospheric red-brick vaulted cellar. An on-site restaurant gets enthusiastic reviews for its traditional Polish cuisine and gourmet tasting menu, and views of nearby Wawel Castle can be enjoyed from the hotel's rooftop terrace. Hotel Copernicus is pricey compared to other five-pearl hotels in Krakow, and both breakfast and parking cost extra. Travelers could consider the Sheraton Krakow Hotel for its exceptional location right on the River Vistula.

The elegant, four-and-a-half-pearl Bonerowski Palace is one of the few hotels situated directly on Main Market Square in the heart of Krakow.

Travelers might want to also check out the Hotel Stary, which has a pool and a spa, but it isn't directly on the square.

Poised on the edge of the Old Town, in sight of the Vistula River and Wawel Castle, this four-and-a-half-pearl Sheraton delivers everything expected of a luxury chain hotel. For starters, the 232 rooms, redone in 2017, have classy contemporary decor and amenities that include the brand’s signature beds, minibars, flat-screen TVs, and (in many cases) free Wi-Fi. Upper-end options come with notable extras, like access to a club lounge where guests can take advantage of free food and drinks. The hotel also features multiple restaurants, well-equipped meeting rooms and a fitness center with an indoor pool. What’s missing is the historic ambience that makes this city so special. If character matters, consider Hotel Stary instead; it’s a boutique hotel in a 14th-century townhouse.

The mid-range Spatz Aparthotel provides 28 comfortable rooms in Krakow's historic Kazimierz district, within walking distance of the Old Town. Rooms are mostly contemporary, outfitted with flat-screen TVs, minibars, and free Wi-Fi. They do not have kitchens like the name may imply, and it's also worth noting only third-floor rooms are air-conditioned. The property lacks wellness facilities and an elevator, but an all-day restaurant offers traditional Polish cuisine and a bar. The surrounding streets house many historic Jewish sites and synagogues, plus recent years have seen the area thrive with a lively bar and club scene. There's no wow factor here, but affordable rates and a good location make this a suitable pick for tourists. It's worth considering Hotel Columbus, which has more character-filled rooms, free breakfasts, and an elevator.

The five-pearl Hotel Stary is a modern, boutique property in a 14th-century townhouse that overlooks the historic main square in Krakow's Old Town. Its 53 individually decorated rooms offer city views and dramatic marble baths with jetted tubs and heated floors -- but some guests complain about wet bathroom floors and motion-activated bedroom lights that can be a nuisance. The fine-dining restaurant serves Polish fare, plus there's a lobby lounge and a seasonal rooftop bar with gorgeous views over the Old Town. Health facilities include two swimming pools, a spa, fitness center, and sauna, while business travelers are catered to with meeting rooms and free Wi-Fi. The five-pearl Sheraton Krakow Hotel offers similar amenities plus a club lounge, but it's nowhere near as stylish nor atmospheric as the Hotel Stary.

The three-pearl Campanile Krakow is located in the heart of the city's Old Town, close to great cafes, restaurants, and all the major tourist attractions. Its 106 guest rooms are simple and contemporary, with work desks, electric kettles, flat-screen TVs, and free Wi-Fi, although they lack mini-fridges. Property features include a casual buffet restaurant, where breakfast is offered for an additional charge, a lobby bar with an espresso machine, and a cozy library lounge. Business travelers can make use of several meeting rooms and a 24-hour internet corner, but there's no fitness room.
