Hotel Polski Pod Białym Orłem enjoys a superb location, steps away from the Florian Gate and within easy walking distance of main attractions. Guests consistently praise the plentiful breakfast buffet, sometimes even featuring prosecco, alongside comfortable, clean rooms equipped with robes and slippers. While some guests have occasionally noted a funny smell in the bathroom, the hotel's proximity to shops, restaurants and convenient amenities like complimentary water, tea, and coffee in the rooms makes it a popular choice.

The location was very central to popular attractions. The hotel staff was consistently helpful with directions and recommendations. The room upgrade to a Beautiful Double Room was a wonderful surprise for my birthday. It really enhanced my stay!
The street noise at night was quite disruptive. A bar nearby was open late. This disturbance affected my sleep quality on several occasions.

The location proved really good, right off the main square (very convenient for exploring). The breakfast was also quite nice. It featured prosecco every morning, I found out.
The air conditioning in the room was quite powerful. This resulted in a constant switching between too hot and too cold. I also noticed a lack of hair conditioner in the bathroom, inconvenient.

the location was acceptable.
The air conditioning was MUCH too strong for my small room. the room switched between being too hot and too cold, even though i did not change the settings. this caused severely dry air. I woke up several times during the night. the a/c unit was placed almost directly above the bed. it was too cold to turn it off completely. i found this disruptive.
