I had a lovely time at Hotel Pod Wawelem, which boasts a fantastic location just a short walk to the castle and the main square. My room had stunning views of the river and the castle, and the rooftop terrace was a great spot to relax. While breakfast offered a decent variety, the toaster situation could be a bit frustrating when busy. Sadly, one staff member at reception left a negative impression, affecting my overall experience.

I had a lovely time at Hotel Pod Wawelem, particularly enjoying the amazing views of the Wawel Castle. The location is ideal, just a short walk to the old town. However, my dining experience at the rooftop terrace was disappointing due to a rude encounter with staff regarding table reservations. Overall, while the hotel offers great amenities and friendly service, the restaurant's approach left me feeling unwelcome.

The room was clean and comfortable, offering lovely views of the river and castle. However, breakfast was a bit chaotic, with limited options and long queues for coffee and toasters, which could use some improvement.
