Reviews
The spa area is excellent! It includes a bio sauna, infrared sauna, Finnish sauna, steam room / roman style sauna), a salt room, as well as a swimming pool, jacuzzi, warmer pool, and a children's pool. The pools are a bit smaller and can get busy at times, but they are always very clean.
The food in the restaurants is also delicious.
The location is a bit outside the city center (about a 40 minute walk), but the hotel can easily call a taxi for you, fares are very reasonable at around 3 - 4 PLN per kilometer (0,70 - 0.90 eur / km).
By the way, yes there is a tram connection to the center close by but you need to know that interval is 20 min so if you miss the tram you wait. For going back and forward you can lose 40 min (pure travel time is additional up to 15 min). If you want to visit center there are better located hotels in Krakow.
The room itself was clean and comfortable, but overall, this stay did not meet 4-star expectations. Unfortunately, I will not return to this hotel.
Great price for what you get!
Also a big thank you to the cleaning lady who cleaned our room on 07.21 (Room 206) She didn’t only cleaned our room but she also went the extra mile by arranging our toiletries so neatly. She didn’t have to do that, but her attention to detail and care truly stood out. It’s the small, thoughtful gestures like this that make a stay feel extra special. I wish I know her name so I can let the management know about her extraordinary service.
I like the location because it's quiet and not crowded.
**🛎️ Thoughtful and thoughtful service**
The front desk staff is professional and enthusiastic, fluent in English and patiently answer all questions (special thanks to Anna for travel advice!). A welcome drink coupon was given upon check-in, the room was prepared in advance and luggage storage was provided proactively. The room was cleaned meticulously every day, and even the skin care products were neatly arranged for me, full marks for details.
**🏨 Comfortable and modern facilities**
The room design is simple and stylish, and the soundproofing effect is excellent, and the hustle and bustle of the street can't be heard at all. The bathroom is separated into dry and wet areas, with sufficient water pressure, and the exclusive Mercure toiletries have a high-end fragrance. The hotel also has a gym and a quiet office area, suitable for both business and leisure.
**🍴 Amazing breakfast! **
The buffet breakfast is so rich that it is dazzling: freshly baked waffles, Polish sausages, fresh fruits and organic yogurt are my favorites. The freshly ground latte from the barista is the perfect start to the day. If you don't want to go out, dinner in the hotel restaurant is also worth a try. I recommend trying the upgraded version of traditional Polish dishes!
**💡 Extra points**
- Paid private parking is available, which is friendly to self-driving tourists
- Free high-speed Wi-Fi, with smooth Internet speed
- The concierge can book tickets for popular attractions (such as the Wieliczka Salt Mine)
- Environmental protection measures are in place to reduce the use of disposable items
Whether it is a business trip or a vacation, this place can meet your needs. I even received a small souvenir when I checked out. How can I not love such a thoughtful hotel? I have recommended it to all my friends who plan to come to Krakow, and I will definitely choose Mercure next time!
