My stay at the Grand Hotel in Krakow was a combination of elegant ambiance and some service hiccups. The historic charm of the hotel is undeniable, with its classic decor and fantastic location near the main square. However, the breakfast experience left something to be desired, especially considering the high price. Overall, I'd consider returning due to its beautiful setting, but the inconsistent service during my stay did affect my overall impression.
