Karpinski Suite


This exquisite apartment is one of the best that we've seen in a long time. It was created by a young Polish designer whose family was compelled to emigrate after the War. Her great uncle, Alfons Karpinski, was one of the artists who hung out at the legendary Art Nouveau cafe round the corner - Michalik's Den. Rumours of dancing naked at Karpinski's favourite spot spread like hell-fire, although as it was, most of the artists went on to become venerable, moustachioed professors. Alfons's niece has clearly inherited the artistic touch, and she won her spurs decorating Manolo Blahnik's shop in London. If you're after a serene home from home then this is the one for you. Here you'll be able to savour a string of gracious rooms, a beautifully finished bathroom and an attractive, modern kitchen. And of course, you're just a step away from all of Cracow's treasures, not least Michalik's Den itself. One word of warning though, the age of dancing naked has passed in the cafe, so you'll have to save such antics for later.

Karpinski Suite

"I stayed with a friend at the Karpinski Suite for about a week. We had a superb break. The Suite is very smart in an unspoilt historic building in an excellent location in the city. It was very relaxing to be located in a virtually traffic free area and not to be dependent on taxis; everything was in walking distance. in view of the abundance of numerous good quality and value restaurants in walking distance the kitchen was completely redundant as far as we were concerned. I certainly hope to return again. "

"Wow! Large, luxurious, warm, comfortable and elegant. This is a special place, recommended by our son. Comfortable bed, large, well-appointed bathroom and kitchen. Not that we used the kitchen much.... the appartment is two minutes walk from Krakow's central Market Square with more restaurants than we could try. Great breakfast place just down the road. A really attractive place to stay. 5/5. Anne and Hugh"

"Was a little worried when I saw the grubby old court yard that leads up to the flat but was totally stunned by the interior of the karpinski suite. I had been impressed by all the pictures on the website and I must say it was seriously nice. It even looked way better than on the website. It was so convenient being right in the centre and they gave us a good discount for staying 3 nights which made it even better. I would reccomend this place to anyone who wants a bit of glamour and luxury. I will definitely be going back. "
