I enjoyed my recent week-long stay at Aparthotel Adler, in the historically significant neighborhood of Podgorze. The staff were very pleasant, welcoming and helpful. Though I was offered a quieter room at first, I chose to stay in a room that faced the street which was noisy at times with traffic, tour groups passing by and music from the boats on the river. I would generally advise bringing ear plugs because the acoustics of the marble interior of this hotel and the thin walls are such that you may be able to hear people snoring, cell phones vibrating, and certainly doors closing and people talking. Also, you get only the bare minimum of amenities (gel and shampoo) and they are not replenished during your stay; additionally, if you want fresh towels more than every three days, you need to pay 10 PLN. These are not deal-breakers, but they were surprises. The breakfast is delicious and I was glad I had it on my last day - very fortifying. Otherwise, I shopped at the Fresh Market store down the street for my breakfast as there was only an introductory bottle of water and no tea or coffee in the rooms at this hotel. You are only steps away from some great restaurants, interesting graffiti, a historic pharmacy and a moving public artwork tribute to the Jews who were murdered, Oskar Schindler's Factory/Museum, and an excellent contemporary arts museum, MOCAK.
