Sheraton Krakow, Poland

We had made contact with the Sheraton Krakow a few days before arriving to arrange a pick up by hotel limousine from the airport.
Our driver was already waiting for us, holding a sign with our name. Our limousine was a Mercedes E-Class
The journey was pleasant and took around 30 minutes. It cost around 95 PLN (ca. 23.75 Euro or ca. 30 USD)

The Sheraton is located opposite Wawel Castle and maybe ten to fifteen minute walk from the Old Town.
The door man was very friendly and offered to take our luggage.
At reception there was no queue, so we could check in immediately. The gentleman was friendly and efficient.
At our request he booked an Auschwitz Tour for us, costing 125 PLN per person (ca. 31.25 Euro / 40 USD).

Our room was located on the highest floor, had a side view of the castle and was located near the elevators.
It was a large, classic room with red and brown colors, writing desk, seating area and king sized bed. The flat screen TV offered international and local channels. There was enough storage space.
The bathroom was medium sized with a sink, bath tub / shower combination and Shine products.
At the in room dining the Color Your Plate concept - as mentioned in the Sheraton Poznan Review - was available.
The room was comfortable and everything was in working order.
Things to consider:
Light sleepers might get disturbed by the noise the elevators make, moving up and down.
At first we feared the room could be to dark, based on the few light features, but it turned out to be no issue.

The lobby is really fantastic, airy and filled with natural day light thanks to a huge atrium. The reception is immediately to the left and opposite of it is the Some Place Else Pub. Most of the space in the atrium is taken up by the Olive Restaurant. The Sheraton also has a fitness center with spa and swimming pool, meeting facilities, The Roof Top Terrace and Bar and Qube Vodka Bar and Cafe.
The Link @ Sheraton is there, too, as well as an ATM. It is a bit hidden near reception.

The reception can get very busy, and sometimes there are long queues. The staff is very friendly, efficient and capable.

This time around we were so much out and about that we didn't use the restaurants, so unfortunately can't comment on them.
Our three night stay passed quickly.
The day before returning to Warsaw with LOT we requested a limousine transfer to the airport. It was well organized and cost 70 PLN (ca. 17.50 Euro or ca. 22 USD).

Check out was done quick and in a friendly manner.

Would we stay here again? Yes, we would.
