Good to know: There isn't really a front desk like you'd find in a traditional hotel. The reception area is actually the gourmet restaurant (listed in the Michelin Guide) on the ground floor. The restaurant is called Pod Nosem.
The apartments
When you arrive, you'll discover a house that's nearly 700 years old. In the 14th century, it was home to members of Kraków's ecclesiastical elite
The three apartments each have a very different atmosphere:

As a bit of trivia, the Royal Suite features authentic historic polychrome decorations and a ceiling dating back to 1688. The Imperial Suite, meanwhile, has a rooftop with a jacuzzi and a breathtaking view of Wawel Castle.

Location
Kanonicza 22 is ideally located on a very quiet side street in the historic center of Kraków, Poland.
Kanonicza Street was once part of the Royal Route. It was home to the residences of canons, but also, during the Renaissance, to those of court physicians, artists, and influential figures. Even today, the facades, illuminated in the evening, give it an almost cinematic atmosphere.
