Hotel Wawel enjoys a superb location, just a short, quiet walk from both the Market Square and Wawel Castle, making it ideal for exploring Krakow's attractions. Guests often appreciate the spacious and clean rooms, some featuring a fridge, and the generally tasteful decor. The Orangerie, with its complimentary 24/7 coffee, stands out as a particularly pleasant space to relax, although a few guests have noted that the breakfast room can feel a bit small when busy. The Black Duck restaurant is connected to the Orangerie and offers great food.

The location was great. It was close to the main square, yet quiet. My room was quite spacious and clean. I appreciated the breakfast and lunch box provided for my early trip. The 24hr coffee in the Orangerie was a nice touch, TOO.
