The 196-room Radisson Blu Hotel is a sophisticated luxury property in central Krakow, a seven-minute walk to Main Market Square and Wawel Castle. The hotel has a restaurant and lobby bar, plus it serves a daily breakfast buffet -- though it's not included in all room rates. Other on-site features include meeting rooms, a modern gym, and a small spa with a sauna and treatment room. Rooms are stylish and contemporary -- though its chain-hotel decor lacks some personality -- and include TVs with on-demand movies, minibars, and free Wi-Fi. Travelers may want to compare rates with the Sheraton Krakow Hotel, another luxury property with more classic room decor and a small pool.

This four-pearl hotel, situated steps from the Main Market Square in the former Czartoryski Palace, has been drawing distinguished guests since it opened in the 19th century (past ones include assorted royals plus artistes ranging from Joseph Conrad to Adrien Brody). Restored in the early 1990s, it boasts a suitably grand lobby dominated by a sweeping staircase. Three eateries, an inviting bar, and a series of event spaces add another layer of luster. But its 64 guest rooms don’t always live up to expectations. Top-tier choices have gorgeous accents and appointments; minibars, flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi, moreover, are standard across the board. However, the least expensive rooms look more dour than decadent. Travelers who value fabulous accommodations above all should try Kanonicza 22, where each suite is sumptuous.

The 138-room Puro Hotel is an upscale property with modern interiors full of bright and eclectic decor. It's situated right by the main train station and about a 10-minute walk from Krakow's Old Town. The hotel features a stylish lobby with lounge areas and a chic, casual restaurant that serves up bar and cafe items, including free coffee and tea all day. Rooms are modern -- both in decor and amenities -- and include touchscreen tablets that control features like lights, TV, and air-conditioning. There is no pool, spa, or gym, though in-room massages are available, while free bike rentals are a nice perk. Guests may want to compare rates with the nearby Andel's Hotel Cracow, which has a sauna, spa, and fitness center, but decor is not as stylish.
