“Photogenic design stay off the square”
Balthazar Design Hotel is a small, beautifully designed Krakow boutique praised for cleanliness, retro-fashionable interiors and photogenic corners, including an inner garden and restaurant guests regret skipping. The location is extremely convenient and safe, right by the square and walkable everywhere. Staff are warm and attentive — a birthday was marked with prosecco and a card — and breakfast is so well loved that several urge paying the small extra for it; a Michelin restaurant is on site.
