Hotel Kossak – Conferences with a Panorama of Wawel
Hotel Kossak is a 4-star boutique property in the very heart of Kraków (Kossak Square). Its key advantage is its location right on the Vistula River, offering a spectacular view of the Wawel Royal Castle.
For conference organizers, it is a prestigious address that solves most logistical challenges in a large city. The property is just a 5-minute walk from the Main Market Square, which eliminates the need to arrange coach transfers to restaurants or attractions. It is an ideal base for companies that want to be at the center of events while still expecting premium standards and quiet (good window soundproofing).

For companies that want something more than just a corporate trip
Hotel Kossakis the perfect place for:
Conferences in Krakow (City Center)This is location no. 1 for groups who, after the substantive part of their event, want to enjoy the charms of the city. The conference room for 160 people provides a comfortable working environment, and the proximity to the Main Square (a 5-minute walk) means participants don’t waste time in traffic. We handle all the logistics: from booking the room, through catering, all the way to an evening outing to Krakow’s historic cellars.
Board MeetingsThe Orangerie Room on the 7th floor is a setting that elevates the prestige of every meeting. We provide complete discretion, VIP waiter service, and transfers from Balice Airport, creating the perfect conditions for strategic discussions with Wawel as your backdrop.
Rooftop Cocktail EventsThe viewing terrace is a ready-made space for a prestigious evening event. We host stand-up style banquets there with live music (saxophone, violin) and an open bar. The view of the illuminated castle creates a real “WOW effect” that doesn’t need any artificial stage design.
Urban Game "Kraków Express"The hotel’s location is a perfect starting point. Instead of sitting in a meeting room, the group heads out into the city: the Vistula Boulevards and Kazimierz are within walking distance. We provide tablets, a storyline and facilitators, and the game ends with a finale on the hotel terrace.
