“Krakow charmer, carry your bags”
Hotel Copernicus is a wonderful historic-street stay minutes from Wawel Castle, the river and Market Square — a beautifully atmospheric building, clean well-equipped AC-cooled rooms, Krakow's best breakfast by one verdict, a Michelin-listed restaurant, and staff who are warm, polite and proactive — Mathew researched Auschwitz transport for a first-time visitor. Caveats: a first-floor room had only interior windows, dining-room noise and aggressive lighting; the luggage cart is useless on worn cobblestones — plan to carry bags; and rooms have tubs only, hard for mobility issues.
