Krakow Hostels and Guest Rooms

Many visitors to Krakow opt for a hostel, b&b or other low-cost lodging rather than a full-blown hotel. The city presents a whole range of temporary accommodation arrangements, from boutique hotels to bed-and-breakfasts to boarding houses to dorms to a room in a family apartment. And converting old downtown apartment buildings into newly refurbished downtown guest houses has come into vogue among local businessmen in the recent years. 

Service and rates in the hostels in Krakow. 

Quality generally matches with rates but obviously there are always exceptions to prove any rule. Some bed-and-breakfasts in Krakow easily beat many low-end hotels while a guesthouse or two prove hardly habitable at all.

Over summer student dormitories often double as youth hostels in Krakow. Despite large number of monasteries and convents in the city just two of them – at the Tyniec Abbey and the Sanctuary of Divine Mercy – run guesthouses for outsiders on their premises. 

Rates at hostels in Krakow start at an equivalent of under ten euro per night for a bed in a room for six or more.
