About

Pure Apartments Krakow

Pure Apartments Krakow is a small, 8-room property on Krolowej Jadwigi 185, a residential street in the city's west. It aims to be self-sufficient rather than serviced: each apartment comes with a kitchenette (kettle, cookware) and a flat-screen TV, and check-in runs through entry codes rather than a front desk. That's the kind of set-up that suits anyone who wants to come and go without queuing at reception.

The location is a fair distance from the touristic core — a 3.8 km from the Main Square and roughly the same from Wawel Royal Castle — which keeps things calm, but it means you'll rely on the nearby bus stops for the old town and the airport. A supermarket sits close by, and there are a few restaurants within a few hundred metres. The rating of 8.9 across 518 reviews points to consistent satisfaction, with particular praise for the staff and the value.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Self-contained for independent stays — Every studio has its own kitchenette with an electric kettle and cookware, plus a flat-screen TV. That means you can cook simple meals and not feel tied to restaurant hours — a practical set-up for a multi-night trip.
  • Calm but well-connected location — The apartments sit in a quieter residential area, yet guests repeatedly note the convenience of a nearby bus stop with routes to the airport and the old town. A supermarket is across the street, and a couple of restaurants are within a few hundred metres.
  • Consistent service and easy check-in — Guests frequently praise the helpfulness of the owner and staff, and the code-based self-check-in is called out as smooth and hassle-free — no waiting at a desk after a late arrival.
  • Free parking on site — For those arriving by car, the property offers parking — a genuine asset in a city where street parking can be tight. One review describes it as a 'free parking spot on the street'.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Set away from the old town — With the Main Square and Wawel Castle around 3.8–3.9 km away, you're not in the touristic heart. Expect to rely on the nearby buses or a drive — walking into the centre is a long trek, and there's no direct walk_min data.
  • Small and limited in scale — With just eight rooms and only two on-site parking spots, this is a compact operation. During busy periods, you may find space runs out, and there's no sense of a large hotel's facilities — no gym, pool or restaurant on site.
  • Adults-only policy — The property specifies 'adults only', so it won't suit families with children. Travellers hoping for a kid-friendly base will need to look elsewhere.
  • Check-in window ends at 23:59 — Self-check-in makes late arrivals easy, but the official window closes at 23:59. If your flight lands after midnight, plan for that — there's no mention of an after-hours alternative.

“A lovely stay in a cosy flat, the owner and staff were helpful, and the location was handy for the bus stop and the shop. The code access worked well, there were two parking spots available, and the apartment was clean and fully equipped.”

“Three nights that were perfect — the staff were accommodating, check-in went smoothly, and having a shower, hairdryer and bath sheets was a thoughtful touch. The position was ideal for driving into the centre.”

8.9Verified guest

“A great, unbeatable spot with buses into the centre, westwards towards the airport and past the shop — everything was wonderful. The staff were very friendly, the owner the best, and the location near supermarkets at night was a bonus.”

Wawel Royal Castle: The royal castle and its cathedral sit about 3.9 km away — another reason to hop on the bus rather than walk. It's a full morning out if you plan to explore the grounds.

The bottom line

A pragmatic, self-catered base for travellers who value independence over proximity to the main square. The reviews are consistently positive — the staff earn particular praise — and the free parking, kitchenettes and easy self check-in make it a sensible pick for a few nights, especially if you have a car or don't mind the bus ride into the centre.
