Hotel Ester - Krakow

what can one say 5 out of 5 on all points, only one complaint, did not have long enough there!!

I was pleasantly surprised by Ester. Well-maintained old style property. I really enjoyed walking the stairs up to my room--so much homier than a typical hotel elevator. I didn't mind the sloped ceiling, though I did find myself hitting the chandelier a few times while dressing. Very good value and style!

I've been to Krakow for work the past four years. I try to stay in the Kazmierz as it is close to many restaurants, bars, and old 19th-century style. Most of the places have stayed have been acceptable, and of hostel-level comfort. But this was the best I've been in. A good value. If I had to put in one complaint, the breakfast was small and unimpressive, […] but there are plenty of choices in a short walk. I'll be back. Devamı

Horrible experience, in order to get the room I booked I had to start a fight. Totally disorganised and the last floor of the hotel should be closed down as it is not fit to be rooms for normal height people, as the ceiling was too low in places.

in the central cobbled square of the Jewish Quarter - surrounded by restaurants, and easy walking distance of city centre, Ghetto, Schindler museum etc.

My second trip to Krakow and first stay at Ester was to say the least, quality and comfortable. Location: In a quiet corner of the Jewish quarter which is the best place to stay in Krakow. Your away from the stag parties yet only a 15 min stroll into the old town. The food at the nearby restaurants "Ariel" and "Kalmierz Hois" were 2 of the better meals […] we had in the 5 days. Service: Really quick to bring things to the room. Shame there was no mini bar. Breakfast was plentiful and tasty. Fresh local meat, cheese, bread and cereals all laid out. Not sure about the random decor in the restaurant mind. Would highly recommend this place to anyone. Enjoy Krakow! Devamı

Clean efficient hotel in a great location in Jewish Quarter. Surrounded by plenty of restaurants and activity. Excellent breakfast buffet that one might look to include up front. Well worth a visit, but is 15 mins walk from Old Town.

We had a lovely stay at the hotel. Our room was a bit smokey from the previous guests but they moved us, and for a small fee we got the best room in the hotel. The view from our window into the Old Town Square was lovely to see. Breakfast was probably typical of catering for all Europeans. (Maybe they could invest in a larger toaster as they only had […] a 2 slice toaster)!! The staff were very helpful to our needs, but we didn't bother them too much either. I would definatley go again and stay in the Ester Hotel, but would like to go in the summer months this time. Devamı

Great location for a great hotel that does exactly what it claims in its brochure. We really enjoyed our 2 night stay in this hotel as we explored the Jewish Quarter of Krakow. Th hotel is ideally located for viewing Kazimierz and within easy walking distance of the main market square in the centre of Krakow which is a truly beautiful and friendly city. […] Lots of interesting walks and sigts to see. I highly recommend this hotle and this city for a short break. Devamı

My husband & I had the pleasure of staying at the Ester Hotel last weekend. It's located smack dab in the middle of the Jewish Quarter & about a 15 minute walk to the major "Old Town" sites. Staff were friendly, our room was clean & comfortable & the (paid) breakfast was a feast! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel.

Hotel was pleasant and very nicely fitted out in the restaurant and reception. Smaller size made it feel a little more personal. I wouldn't class it as a 4 star though, unless other rooms are better. The twin room was on the top floor in the eaves, so we constantly had to bend down when walking around the room to avoid knocking ourselves out! The room […] was very clean and well furnished, but quite depressing as it was all dark wood, dark carpet, dark beams (in your face) and with a few of the back of the apartments behind, and all their rubbish on their balconies. With plug sockets hanging off the wall and little things like that, it wasn't an appealing place to chill out, and no coffee making facilities, although the complimentary water they replaced daily was appreciated (although tea making would've been better!). The hotel allows smoking (which is probably the norm in Poland) but I found it highly unacceptable to wake up in the night being able to smell cigarettes coming from neighbouring rooms, it was quite unpleasant. It was well placed for those who want the quiet of being out of the main square, and there was no shortage of lovely quiet restaurants on the doorstep, and the main tours pick up from outside. If it was classed as a 3 star I would probably agree, but the 4 star is pushing it. Bathroom was beautiful and brand new, but with no ventilation so it was like a sauna as soon as you got in the shower. They did give little toiletries, but I would rather have a window or extractor fan, and no cigarette smoke drifting in from other rooms! Devamı

My wife (age 46 and 50) and I took a few days break at this hotel following reading other reviews. The hotel was clean and staff at reception friendly. All spoke good english and were keen to converse and in general be helpful. Our room was spacious and clean, and the bathroom spotless. No bath, just a shower cubicle, but water pressure was great (we […] were on the top floor), and there was never a hint that the hot water may run out. Breakfast was the same every day cold meats, cheeses, various salad type offerings, cereal, coffee tea and juices. You could ask for eggs cooked differently, scarmbled for example. The restaurant menu was good, typical stews, steaks, fish etc, cooked and presented with great care, and the prices were so cheap. For example we had a bottle of wine, Beer, two main dishes, two puddings, side salads, bread, and two Baileys to finish, and the bill came to less than £40 !!. Waiting satff were really friendly and helpful, but not in your face every five minutes, there was no rush at all, very relaxed. The Jewish quarter was quite lively, lots of music in the evenings, and quite a few restauarnts to choose from all within a couple of minutes walk. You could also take a tour on electric cars, a ride on horse and carriage, which based themeseves on the square outside of the hotel. Every morning there were also tours of people viewing the area and local synagogues. So if you want it absolutely silent, maybe not the place to be, but it was definiteley not intrusive. A walk to the main Town square took about 20 easy minutes all on flat terrain, no hill climbing. All in all a really good, value for money find, we would definitely stay here again. Devamı

Well done boutique hotel renovated with all the modern conveniences in a lovely old building, it is located in the historic Jewish Quarter of Krakow which has become a very "happening" neighborhood. The staff is friendly and efficient. A minor complaint was that the desk never had change and that was something you always need for tips, etc. The hotel […] had a restaurant which had Klezmer music on some nights. They were terrific musicians and we highly recommend having dinner one night at the hotel restaurant and hearing them. Devamı

the hotel was small and suited the surroundings- the buffet breakfast was ok- not a large selection but adequate- the location is excellent if u want to be in the jewish area- reasonable walking distance to other sites

The Ester Hotel in Krakow is located in the picturesque Jewish quarter known as Kazimierz. This was a superb location - at the corner of a plaza which contained a variety of restaurants and bars which served Jewish and Polish food. There are numerous sightseeing opportunities within walking distance of the Ester, reinforcing it's prime location spot. […] It was only a 15-20 min walk away from the old town too. As for the hotel itself, I could not fault it. I had a double room which was a very comfortable size for myself. The buffet breakfast was also good - especially the herring! I would thoroughly recommend the Ester to anyone. Devamı

We stayed at the Ester Hotel for two nights in June. It is very conveniently located in the very heart of Kazimierz district in Krakow which, as we also found, was within an easy walking distance to the city centre. The room we got was fantastic. We stayed in many hotels around Europe, including Hilton, but this one is our favourite so far! Very spacious, […] fresh with stunning decor and a great attention to detail. Lovely bathroom with a corner bath. Powerfull air-con unit which was much appreciated due to hot weather. Although our windows were overlooking the street the room was nice and quiet. The breakfast buffet was nice and there was a good choice. We also tried the restaurant and really liked the food, even though we thought it might have been a bit overpriced (discount for hotel guests is available). Only one thing, but that is common to all hotels in Krakow at the moment- if you watch your budget, do your homework before booking any tours or transport with the hotel. They all use their friends and relatives and they are not necessary the cheapest option! Devamı

Situated in an interesting square in the historic Jewish quarter of the city this hotel offers excellent accommodation and has a very good dining room serving a full breakfast and with an extensive menu for evening dinner. The staff are helpful and attentive and will arrange tours to areas of interest in and around the city. We were very satisfied with […] all the amenities offered by this small friendly hotel. Devamı

Jättetrevligt hotell med perfekt läge i den judiska delen av staden. Rummen rena och fina, olika standard på rummen. Maten si så där på hotellet. Bra och hjälpsam personal både i receptionen och i restaurangen.

Vi reiste til Krakow for å dra på julemarked, og valgte Hotel Ester som overnattingssted. Rommet vi fikk var greit. Litt lite, men rent og pent. Frokosten på hotellet var imidlertid ikke bra. Buffeten ble ikke etterfyllt ettehvert som det ble tomt. Vi måtte be om alt fra rundstykker til skinke, enda det da var to timer til buffeten skulle stenge. Ikke […] kast bort penger på dette. Ellers var hotellet helt greit. Det var et stykke å gå til markedsplassen, og til shoppingsenteret Galeri Krakow. Men det er billig å ta taxi dersom man ikke vil gå. Det går trikker gjennom byen hele tiden, men det er lite som er oversatt til engelsk, så det kan være litt vanskelig å orientere seg. Krakow er en fin by, og hotellet kan anbefales som et greit overnattingssted. Devamı

Hotel molto ben curato in una zona di Cracovia con ancora qualche lavoretto da fare, ma comunque charmant, personale molto disponibile gentile e preparato.

Situado en pleno barrio judio (que además de por su historia está muy bien para cenar y salir el finde) y a 10 min caminando del centro. Magnifica relación calidad / precio.

grei standar god service hyggelig personal,seng kunne vært bedre madras

Sentralt beliggende og koselig hotell. God fortausrestaurant med rimelig og god mat. Flott atmosfære i den Jødiske bydelen,og stilt om natten. Frokosten var relativt enkel.

Ester er heldigvis ikke et upersonligt hotel, der kunne ligge hvorsomhelst. Til gengæld må man være forberedt på, at det ikke er splinternyt og strømlinjet. Personalet er meget flinkt og venligt. Beliggenheden er meget charmerende. Morgenmaden er skuffende; efter at have prøvet den, gik vi andre steder hen.

Hotellet har en veldig fin beliggenhet i det jødiske kvartalet i byen. Hyggelige uterestauranter og koselig stemning rett utenfor døren. Rent og pent. Utvalget på frokosten var noe begrenset, men variert meny og meget god kvalitet på maten som serveres i restauranten for øvrig.

친구커플과 함께 투숙하였으나 그 친구의 방은 엘리베이터도 없는 4층 다락방에 배치되었음. 객실매엔 쓰레기통도 없고 샤워공간엔 비누, 샴프등을 밑바닥에 놓고 사용할수 밖에 없음. Wi-Fi는 됐다 않됐다하고 객실에선 아예 불통. 절대 이용하지 마세요
