Hotels in Wroclaw

Wrocław is one of the oldest and the most beautiful cities in Poland. Situated at the foot of the Sudetes, by the Oder river, criss-crossed by its numerous tributaries and channels, it is an exceptional city of 12 islands and more than 100 bridges.

       

The walls are steeped in the city’s rich and turbulent history. Ostrów Tumski, “the Cathedral Island”, one of the most beautiful surviving sacred architecture sites in Europe, is a reminder of the early Middle Ages. The Wrocław city hall is counted among the most splendid Gothic-Renaissance buildings in Central Europe. The large market square, enclosed by impressive tenement houses, after a thorough renovation in 1997 is without a doubt the most beautiful in Poland and one of the most beautiful in Europe.

       

The city also boasts many green spaces, starting with Promenady Staromiejskie (Old Town Promenades) in the city centre and more than 14 parks and gardens further in. The Botanical Garden, with its beautiful flower garden, orangery, rock garden and cactus greenhouse, as well as the Zoological Garden, funded in 1865, are both perfect places for taking a walk. Park Szczytnicki, too, will surprise you with an exceptional attraction: an original Japanese Garden. 

 

Discover Wrocław in a private walking tour, or take a comfortable 2-Hour Sightseeing Tour by Electric Car to see the main attractions.

       

Wrocław is also a dynamic centre of culture. Numerous theatres, an opera, a concert hall and many clubs, museums and galleries ensure a rich programme of artistic events. Various musical and film festivals of international renown has become the city’s trademark.

       

Wrocław is a wondrous city of rich history and exceptional beauty, appreciated both by its residents and its guests. When visiting our city, you will be discovering truly magical places. We are looking forward to seeing you!
