Betmanowska Main Square Residence Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing location right in the centre of the main square, spotlessly clean, friendly staff 24 hours a day! Lots of early trips and staff there to help and talk to even in early hours!

Room facilities good, tea/coffee, safe, hairdryer etc. Bathroom very pleasant, underfloor heating a nice touch. Public areas very pleasant. Reception staff really good, great communication both before and during our stay when we asked for help with booking taxis, trips etc."

Hotel Experior Boutique - Destigo Hotels

8/10 Good

"The hotel is immaculate and the staff were very helpful. The only negative to the hotel is the large floor-to-ceiling windows which the beds are placed next to. There is very little privacy and you can see into the room from different angles even when the blinds and curtains are closed."

Aparthotel Best Views Luxury

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible convenient location, right off the main square, along the pedestrian walkway leading to the castle. Everything in the city is walkable from here. If you have any tours to meet up at set locations, it's a very easy walk. The only negative was it can be a bit loud on the weekends. If you're a light sleeper, you might need earplugs."
