Wyndham Grand Krakow Old Town
Five-star Old Town base with its own indoor pool
About this hotel
Wyndham Grand Krakow Old Town delivers genuine five-star polish just steps from St. Florian's Gate, with an indoor pool and hot tub that give families a swimming option on the days a full water park trip isn't planned. The elegant glass-enclosed cafe and restaurant handle breakfast and dinner without needing to leave the hotel, while the pet-friendly policy extends even at this price bracket, unusual for a hotel of this polish. The trade-off is distance: this is a tram ride or taxi from Park Wodny rather than a walk, so it suits families treating the water park as one day among several rather than the trip's sole purpose during their stay.
- Indoor pool
- Five-star service
- Old Town location
- Pet-friendly rooms
Our take
Wyndham Grand suits a family that wants a genuinely five-star Old Town base with its own indoor pool as a fallback, useful for balancing a water park day with sightseeing around Rynek Główny. Families whose trip is built entirely around the water park should weigh the extra commute against the hotel's undeniable polish before booking.
- ✓Book well ahead for July, August or December, when this Old Town address fills fastest across the whole city.
- ✓Confirm the pet fee directly before arrival, since five-star properties like this one tend to charge more than budget alternatives.
- ✓Use the tram rather than a taxi to Park Wodny during peak traffic hours for a more predictable journey.
Why we love it
- Steps from St. Florian's Gate
- Indoor pool and hot tub on-site
- Pet-friendly despite five-star polish
- Elegant glass-enclosed cafe for breakfast
Why guests love itWe treated the water park as one day of a longer Old Town-based trip, and Wyndham Grand's own indoor pool became the fallback for our younger one, who'd had enough of slides by early afternoon but wasn't ready to stop swimming. Being two minutes from St. Florian's Gate made the rest of the Kraków sightseeing effortless too, and the glass-enclosed cafe turned out to be our favourite breakfast spot of the whole trip.
