This is one of our favourite ever renovations - we so enjoyed doing it!
A spacious and grand classic old apartment with a remarkable Bohemian interior. Perfectly placed between the Old Town and Kazimierz Jewish Quarter with everywhere you'll want to see easily walkable. Two balconies, high ceilings, a 43m2 salon, this is the former home of Greg, Under the Thatch's founder.
We've scraped back years of modern decoration to create a unique 'modern rustic' Bohemian interior scheme that we hope you'll love. Wall murals by young Polish artist Arek Twardowski, and a mix of antique and specially commissioned furnishings (beds, sofas).
The apartment is one of the large apartments built for wealthy businessmen in 1905 in the Viennese Secessionist style, on the Kazimierz edge of the Old Town. Today that means it has an ideal location between the touristy Old Town and the Kazimier 'Old Jewish quarter' where you'll find the best bars and restaurants in Krakow. It sits overlooking a quiet square with the best patisserie in Krakow on the ground floor, an art gallery next door and other art galleries and antique shops on the square. You'll find very good food at great prices a short walk in every direction.
The apartment is on the top, 3rd floor and has high ceilings throughout, plenty of light and space.
