About

Kanonicza 22

Kanonicza 22 sits on one of Krakow's oldest streets, Kanonicza, in the shadow of Wawel Castle. This adults-only hotel blends historic tenement charm with modern comforts: parquet floors, dressing areas, and tea and coffee facilities in each room. Guests praise the impeccable service, elegant interiors, and a restaurant that has earned a Michelin recommendation.

The hotel's location is a major draw—Main Square is about five minutes on foot, and Blonia Park is a short drive away. Each suite is individually designed, some with castle views and private jacuzzis. With a 9.3 rating from 203 reviews, Kanonicza 22 is a top choice for those seeking a quiet, luxurious stay in Krakow's Old Town.
