“Ok - fine but not great”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 May 2011

The biggest drawback in this boutique hotel is the quality of the beds. They are simply not comfortable. I was also not impressed with the cleanliness of the rooms. It wasn't anything specific, it just was a bit shabby. It is an old hotel converted from a townhome, and insufficient attention has been paid to the acoustics. It can become a bit loud from the outdoor traffic and the noise in the corridors. There is an elevator, which is a plus. The restaurant providing breakfast is quite good with a wide selection of items on the buffet. Again more attention could be paid to the cleanliness of the tables when bussing them. U.S. travelers don't like the crumbs simply swept off the table cloth between seatings. The staff is helpful and cordial. The location, within walking distance of the old town is excellent.

“Excellent location, relatively expensive, great helpful staff”

I got into Kracow late on the train so I was looking for a place closeby. It turns out the Old Town is just next to the train station and the Hotel Pollera, which has been around for over one hundred years, was right where I needed a hotel : ) I initially booked one night then two more then another. I could have gotten a better priced hotel but was completely lazy. The location was perfect. It is an old hotel but in relatively good condition. My room was a single which really wasn't worth the money and it was located between two rooms that were both used by housekeeping (I think the room may have used to have been a closet...literally). I paid a discounted rate of around 65.00US for the room per night which I didn't think was a good value. The breakfast buffet in the morning was included and was great. The personnel were very helpful and friendly.

“Great Olde Worlde Hotel near the square”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 February 2011

We stayed here for 5 nights and could not fault the hotel in any way. It is a perfect base in which to explore Krakow and staying here won't break the bank. In fact what we did this trip was stay here 5 nights and 2 nights in the delightful Wentzl Hotel (see my review).

The Pollera is what I would describe as authentic Polish faded grandeur. It was clean, the breakfast was adequate (continental) and the staff were attentive. We requested a room overlooking the theatre on booking and this request was granted. The theatre was beautiful lit up at night.

We wouldn't hesitate staying here again.

“Charming hotel, great location and great value.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2011
1
person found this review helpful

This hotel is just wonderful - full of charm and character, very old fashioned style and art nouveau stained glass window in the hotel reception. It is located only five minutes away from the main square so is in a superb spot. Also on a quiet street.
The rooms are very comfortable, nicely (though old fashioned in style) decorated, with lots of little added touches. Our room was very spacious and the bed was large and comfortable.
Staff are on the whole very friendly. The hotel is also very close to the train station (10 mintes walk), where you can get a very speedy direct train to the airport.
The breakfast buffet is also good.

The hotel is definitely very good value for money and Krakow is a fantastic city to explore.

“Wonderful city break”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 October 2010
2
people found this review helpful

This hotel is ideally located within a short walk to main square in Krakow. Friends and I shared a spacious room that had 4 single beds. Ideal for a family. Hotel was spotlessly clean. It is an older type of hotel with its own unique charm. Recepionists were very helpful on request. Breakfasts were of continental variety . Very Substantial. A member of our group has stayed there on 3 occasions which is testament enough. Would highly recommend this hotel.
