Krakow offers all kinds of accommodation but regardless of whether you choose a hotel, student housing or an apartment, we recommend booking a room way in advance, as Krakow is a highly frequented tourist destination.
Krakow city centre is walkable and if you book accommodation on the west side of the Old Town, you can walk to both conference venues, certainly to the one in Karmelicka Street. We do not recommend staying in the very Old Town, as it has a very busy night life and gets very loud at night, especially during weekends.
Below is a list of hotels conveniently located within a walking distance to the Old Town and the Karmelicka conference venue:
Amber Boutique Hotels – Hotel Amber ***
Hotel Alexander ***
Grand Ascot Hotel ****
Golden Tulip Krakow City Center****
The Crown Krakow Center – Handwritten Collection ACCOR****
Hotels (decently-priced) within the Old Town:
Great Polonia Kraków Old Town***
Hotel Wawel***
The UKEN student dorm / guest house, Krakowiak, is located at 9 Armii Krajowej Street (20 minutes from UKEN main campus). It offers double and single rooms in July-September (when students are away). https://ach.uken.krakow.pl/
