“Cramming in 27 rooms, a bar and a kosher restaurant, this petite hotel is a great base for exploring Krakow’s Jewish quarter.”
They say the best things come in small packages, and that’s certainly the case with this hotel. With just 27 rooms spread across three 15th-century townhouses, the Eden sits firmly in the small and friendly bracket.

As you’d expect from such an old building, the rooms vary in size. They’ve all been carefully restored, decorated with chunky wood furniture, cosy carpets and neutral colour schemes. Each one comes with a small en suite shower room, too.

They’ve kept many of the hotel’s original features, while adding 21st century touches wherever possible. So you’ve got a Swedish sauna sitting side by side with Krakow’s only mikvah – a Jewish ritual bath that looks like a miniature swimming pool.

And that’s not all on the facilities front either. There’s a cellar bar called Ye Olde Goat Pub, where bare stone walls and tiled floors are the stage for evening drinks. There’s a cellar-level salt grotto, with salt from the Dead Sea, for you to relax in – the salty air is said to relieve asthma and allergies. And there’s a small buffet restaurant with the only kosher kitchen in

Your guide to Krakow, Polish Cities

“A chocolate box of a city with the full A to Z of architecture, Krakow is Poland’s big crowd-puller.”

Don’t expect to visit Krakow and not fall in love. It’s easily one of Eastern Europe’s most evocative cities. And although it’s no longer the capital, it takes pole position on pretty much every score. Take its vital statistics. This scenic city notches up 6,000 historic buildings, 18 museums, 2.5 million works of art, one of Europe’s oldest universities and over 140 churches. Impressive credentials for somewhere the size of Birmingham. So it’s no surprise UNESCO gave it a place on their list of the world’s 12 most significant historic sites. With centuries of sights under its belt, there’s a lot to cram in. Luckily, most of the best bits gather in the Stare Miasto, or Old Town. Think Durham gone Gothic and you get the picture. Looped by the Planty – a series of gardens which were once the city’s moat – it’s packed into an area shaped like a light bulb. All the big titans are here. Stand in Rynek Glowny, Europe’s biggest medieval square, and listen to the ‘hejnal’ trumpet call blasted from St Mary’s Church on the hour. Snap the Renaissance palaces and 13th-century University along Ulica Florianska, the main artery of the city. And get a close up of Wawel Hill’s star attractions, the castle and cathedral, which sit at the end of the bulb. Auschwitz is within day trip distance from Krakow, too, a pilgrimage many tourists make. But if you’ve not got time, head for Kazimierz, the Jewish Quarter. A clutch of medieval streets and synagogues, it featured in the film Schindler’s List and its museums document haunting reminders World War II. But in true Polish spirit, it’s also flourished into a collection of quirky shops and drinking dens so cool Soho looks last season. Add to all that an unexpectedly hip shopping scene and gastronomic restaurants at bargain prices and there’s only one burning question. What’s not to fall in love with?
