If you're ready to mingle after dark, hit Kazimierz filled with bars and clubs for a fun night out.

When it comes to choosing the perfect place to stay in Kraków, the MEININGER hotel Kraków Centrum in the heart of the city stands out. Our vibrant neighborhood, the Grzegórzki district, offers you easy access to all the popular attractions and historic landmarks of the city.

Just steps away from our spot, you'll find the historic Old Town of Kraków. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to famous architectural marvels, photogenic streets, and the Main Market Square, Rynek Główny.
