A great place in a central location. It's a one minute stroll to the main square with lots of food and drink options. Rooms were very stylish and a little different to the norm. Friendly and helpful staff. Very nice looking restaurant, but possibly a bit overpriced for the area. Some of the fancy lighting in the room didnt work properly. All in all, a great few nights away.

A stellar staff! Never have I received the caliber of friendly and welcoming service as I did upon my arrival with Małgorzata and departure with Klaudia at Hotel Stary. Malgorzata allowed my early arrival and Klaudia my late departure. Their colleagues at the spa were so supportive and friendly. I felt like a queen for my entire stay. Not bad for a woman from South Bend, IN in the USA. Thank you!!
