Hotel Batory was an excellent choice in Krakow - a 5 minute walk from the main town square and a 7 minute walk from the main train station. Located in a quiet residential area, the hotel has two options for your stay.
There is the traditional hotel which is accessed straight from the lobby of the main building, and the building annex which provides cheaper rooms for larger parties. We stayed in the annex as we had 9 people in our party, and were able to get 2 rooms with 5-6 beds each. It is not a hostel however, as you have to rent out the whole room no matter the size of your group. The rooms were spacious and had their own bathrooms and TVs. The beds were adequate, some were single and some were bunk beds.
The hotel also offered a free breakfast buffet to both buildings, which was excellent. There were meats, cheeses, crepes, cereal, fruits, sausages, breads, fruit juices, coffee, and tea. It was definately one of the best breakfast buffets we have had! After we checked out, the hotel also allowed us to store our luggage in the luggage room for the day which was very convenient.
I would recommend this hotel to families and groups of students travelling for a weekend away. It is centrally located and we had a pleasant stay.
