It was very close to all amenities. However it was noisey especially when it was warm as no air con in the room so had to leave the windows open. One thing i will say is the shower tray very very slippy i had to put a towel on the base to feel safe in the shower. But great place to stay. Lovely breakfast and they made us something to take out with us when leaving very early. Would definitely recommend or stay again. Staff were lovely.

Our stay at Portal House Apartments was very pleasant and superbly located. Easy to walk in the Old City and easy to get to trams to explore. One star docked for such hard beds! Otherwise the included breakfast was lovely and the accommodations charming.

The apartments are in a great location for both the old town and the Jewish district. Everything is walkable and organised trips pick up within 5 mins walk maximum. The room was spotless, bathroom modern, breakfasts good and the staff were great. On 2 mornings we needed to leave before breakfast started at 7am so they made us breakfast boxes to take with us at no extra cost. I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone visiting Krakow.

We stayed here for 5 days and we were amazed with the very warm welcome from the polite receptionist, Rosza. Our room is very clean and neat. Location is perfect. We were able to walk around even late at night. All the transport route are very accessible including the main railway station. Also with thanks to Philip one of the young receptionist who guided us through while searching for the places we’d like to visit. Breakfast iare good too. I would highly recommend Portal house to everyone.

A good hotel in a convenient location.

We stayed in a Junior Apartment at Portal House Apartments. It was very spacious, modern and clean. The bathroom was one of the largest bathrooms I've ever seen. The shower was in a separate part of the room and was very powerful. Then there was a double bedroom, double wardrobe with hanging space and shelf space. There is a safe which is free to use. If you need to iron clothes, an iron and ironing board can be provided without charge. We had a spacious lounge area and TV. The kitchen had everything you need. We only used the kettle and the fridge. We couldn't find the cutlery! When you open the drawers, there is a drawer at the top of that open space. It just looks like a piece of wood. There was also a little patio outside the bedroom. Breakfast offers a small selection of fruits, cereals, yoghurts, breads, waffles, pancakes, cakes and hot food.Plenty of choice. Fruit juices and hot drinks too. The staff on Reception were very helpful and friendly. The hotel is very bright and modern with touches of the original building in the staircases and wooden doors. It is situated within easy walking distance of bars, restaurants, the main square. We ordered a Bolt taxi from the airport. Youll need the app. It was around 50pzloty each way. If we returned to Krakow, we would stay here again.

I was able to order a taxi at the desk. I could come and go as I pleased and at any time of night because there was a host 24 hrs a day at the front desk to buzz you in . I felt safe and enjoyed the area since it was just a block and half away from the head market square.
