“This places makes me happy and restores my faith in people.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 September 2011

This places makes me happy and restores my faith in people. I've read that the Polish pride themselves on being excellent hosts, and Pod Czarną Różą demonstrates that well. This is a hotel with a bed and breakfast feel and a prime location. It's near the clubs, which aren't my thing any more, but it's also near the water, near the leaning tower, near cafes, near the square, near NCU…

This isn't a technical five-star hotel. It doesn't satisfy some list of check boxes. It's not cookie cutter. There's character. You'll trip on the ledge at your room's door. You might worry a bit on the tight stairs. The floor creaks as an older building should. The shower's European, so beware of cracking your elbows.

All this, and they have a real iron you can use. Seriously, silly "business" hotels, why can't you get this right?

The staff went above and beyond. I needed to check out at 5am, and they not only accomodated me but also volunteered to help with my missed breakfast. One lady provided an excellent suggestion for dinner, Oberza two doors down. They always welcomed me with smiles, even with my sad attempts at phrasebook Polish.

Perhaps I'd feel differently if I were lodged in the newer building, but my stay in the older one was utterly delightful. And extremely inexpensive.

Oh, and there is a jar of Nutella on every breakfast table.

Room Tip: If you can, the old building.

My wife and I stayed here for a long weekend for the Speedway GP. We were pleasantly surprised. The room good was clean and tidy but the carpet could do with replacing as it was very warn. A lick of paint would be good too. The hotel was very close to the centre of the city with plenty of pubs and clubs nearby, but this did not disturb any sleep.
The breakfast was plentiful. The only thing needed was fresh towels daily! That was the only negative. We will be back to stay.

Nicely decorated rooms (if slightly small) and very friendly hotel staff. An atmospheric hotel in a great location

“Small and stylish, in the heart of the old town”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 August 2011

A tremendous location, halfway between the river and the old town square. Lots of bars, restaurants, and even 2 jazz clubs close at hand, but not close enough to disturb a good nights sleep.
This hotel has more of a good guesthouse atmosphere. There is a small reception area with elegant, comfortable chairs. The adjoining breakfast room could prove a bit tight if everyone came down at the same time.
The bedroom provided was a double for sole occupancy, which made it a very good deal.
Refurbishment was recent, with a sparkling new bathroom, and a bedroom very tastefully furnished in traditional style, with some very nice wooden fittings.
Everything worked fine.
The only drawback was the steep spiral staircase, which could prove a bit of a challenge.

“Awesome location!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 May 2011

A great location at a fabulous price! The guarded parking lot was only a short walk away. Employees were very friendly. Be aware, though, that to get to many of the rooms, there are several flights of stairs to climb. The only downside to our stay was that our room smelled a bit like cigarette smoke.
