A good hotel quite near Old Town Centre. Friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast had quite a good selection of meats, breads and fresh fruit and cereals. There was also a choice of hot food including sausages and eggs. Arrived late at around 21:30 hours and had a nice meal in the hotel restaurant. Rooms always clean and tidy. Downside was the hard mattresses and the quilts which were too small. Otherwise an all round good hotel. We would stay there again.

We stayed at The Hotel Atrium at the very end of February for a short girls' holiday and we had a great time. We booked through Easy Jet and after a very late flight, we finally got to the hotel at about 11pm. The receptionist was very nice and gave us directions to get to old town to get a bite to eat. Because it was dark, we didn't make it to the old town but we found a small grocery store just around the corner which we made daily trips to during our stay. Our room was a pleasant surprise - so large! It had two couches that pulled out into beds, as well as a seperate bedroom with a large bed, desk and flat screen TV. The bathroom had a large tub as well as a shower and there was also a kitchenette. There were cups, plates, bowls, cutlery and pans provided but no washing up liquid. We felt guilty about not being able to wash them, but the cleaners did it every day for us. We did not eat in the atrium restaurant for dinner, but we had our continential breakfasts there every morning and found that it had quite a good selection and enough to fill up and get ready for a long day of walking! All in all the hotel was great, the staff were friendly and it was a great location. Its about a 5-7 minute walk to old town so you're close enough for the sites but out of the way of drunken stag parties. The hotel organises excursions, but if you are on a budget I would recommend going to the tourist information centre where they can direct you to get public transport of your own to the local attractions. We took a trip to the salt mines using a local bus service and it only cost 5 zloty return!

I would defintiely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to visit Krakow.

The Atrium has a great location just on the edge of the old town and about a 5 minute walk to the main square. The room we had was on the small side with not a lot of storage space, however it was clean and comfortable and well maintained throughout our stay. Breakfast was good with a selection of fruit juices and both hot and cold dishes.

Do not use the hotel's excursion facility as it is more than twice the price to go to Auszwitch as the local tourist shops in the old town.

The hotel is also very convenient for the shopping mall and the railway station.

As we were arriving quite late, we used a transfer service from the airport which is the same price as a taxi but the driver meets you when you get into arrivals and helps with your luggage. Cost was 70 zlt + 10 zlt tip. On the way back we took the train to the airport as it was so easy to do.(5 min walk through the shopping centre and you can buy your ticket on the train if you are pushed for time) Cost was about 8zlt.

Good way to see the city is by the vintage tram which goes by all the main sites and on which you can have tea, coffee, beer etc. and snacks.
Good city to visit. Hope you enjoy it.

My husband, mother and I stayed here in June of 2007. We had some confusion with our reservations and the staff helped us immensely and went above and beyond to make sure the rest of our trip in Poland went smoothly. The room was larger than we expected and very clean. Being used to the 'continental breakfasts' in the US, we were thrilled with the wonderful breakfast they provided. The hotel is in a great location. Don't miss the local market just down the street.
