About

Hotel Maltanski

Hotel Maltanski occupies a quiet spot in central Krakow, within easy walking distance of the Old Town and Wawel Royal Castle. The property is modest in scale, which keeps things personal and unhurried.

Rooms are styled with parquet floors and warm decor, and guests can use the terrace or garden when the weather cooperates. On-site parking, a 24-hour reception, and an in-house restaurant cover the practical needs of a city break.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

5 reasons to book
  • Prime yet peaceful location — A nine-minute walk to Wawel Royal Castle, with the Old Town just beyond. Guests describe it as quiet despite the central setting.
  • Helpful, friendly staff — Multiple reviews single out the reception team for their warmth and attentiveness, with one guest specifically thanking Nastya for good advice.
  • On-site parking — A notable advantage in central Krakow — a large courtyard lot, though it is paid.
  • Pet-friendly — Dogs are welcome without issue, which is a plus for travellers who don't want to leave their pet behind.
  • Clean, comfortable rooms — Rooms are described as spotless with good water pressure, coffee-making facilities, fridges, and parquet floors.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited breakfast selection — Some guests felt the breakfast buffet was not extensive, though the quality of what's offered is praised.
  • Rooms may feel basic — Comfort and facilities ratings are the lowest categories, suggesting some rooms or amenities may not impress those expecting more.
  • Paid parking — Parking is convenient but not free, which could add to the total cost for drivers.
  • Check-in window closes at midnight — If you're arriving late, you'll need to make it by 23:59 or arrange otherwise, as check-in isn't 24-hour.

Getting around Krakow
