New Port is a 4* floating hotel located directly on the water near the center of Krakow, Poland. You sleep on the Vistula, facing the sublime and iconic Wawel Castle. A romantic stroll along the river takes you to Rynek Główny, the Market Square, in less than half an hour on foot.

 

Reservation

We recommend that you book your stay in New Port via Booking.com, which often offers free cancellation. Send us a message on Instagram if you go, it would make us super happy.

 

The rooms

The 29 rooms, spread over 6 barges, all offer a breathtaking view of the castle and the greenery along the other bank. Unlike standard rooms, superior category rooms have a private terrace overlooking the Vistula. The latter, however, feature a beautiful bay window.

Here are a few of our favorite rooms:

1 • Standard Room • Photo • 🪿
2 • Premium Room • Photo • ☘️
3 • Superior Room • Photo • ☀️

Depending on the room you choose, you'll enjoy the following amenities: king-size bed with a very comfortable mattress in the mezzanine, private terrace overlooking the Vistula, panoramic windows, living room with TV, bathroom with shower, hospitality products, underfloor heating, plus a connected tablet to manage lights, curtains and temperature.

Tip: when booking, specify that you want a room at the ends of the barges. These are the quietest and most pleasant.

 

Breakfast

In the morning, à la carte breakfast is served at the Hala Forum, a beautiful spot 100 meters from the hotel. If you prefer to have breakfast elsewhere, we have a great suggestion: Boby Specialty Coffee, located a 15-minute walk away. The drinks, both classic and more original (such as strawberry matcha), are delicious, as are the sandwiches and pastries. The Basque pistachio cheesecake is amazing!

 

A few romantic extras

For the ultimate in relaxation, you can also book a massage directly in your room. The hotel also offers a romantic package for two, including a night in a room with terrace, a candlelit dinner at the "Pino River" restaurant on the Vistula, a 60-minute massage for 2 in your room, a bottle of wine on arrival, flowers and rose petals...

 

What we love about the hotel

- Luggage transport from the parking lot approximately 250 meters away (available until 4 p.m.)
- Coffee bean machine, free and accessible at any time
- Free seeds to feed the ducks and swans

 

Location

New Port is a veritable oasis just 100 m from the Hala Forum, home to a dozen restaurants, open-air stages, an open-air cinema and the famous Krakow Eye Ferris wheel. There's also a hot-air balloon moored here, which will take you up to 150 m above the ground. Admire the city from the sky and, further south, the Beskid and Tatra mountains.
