Breathtaking views of Giewont (the 'Sleeping Knight') directly from balconies
50-meter walk to Polana Szymoszkowa ski lifts and geothermal thermal pool
Underground parking is free (a rarity in Zakopane) and elevator-accessible
Γρήγορη Ματιά: It's a high-end apartment rental masquerading as a residence, so expect stunning views and silence, but don't look for a 24/7 concierge or room service.
Αξιολόγηση από @ursulakham: I honestly didn't expect the views to be this good. We spent every morning having breakfast on the terrace while the kids played. The apartment felt super modern but cozy. If you're heading to Zakopane with family, this is the spot to book.
Ο Επισκέπτης που Έμεινε Εδώ Είπε
The hype
Guests are universally obsessed with the cleanliness and the mountain views, often calling it the best vista in Zakopane.
Reality check
The 'breakfast' gets mixed reviews—some find it adequate, others describe it as 'lunch food' or cold catering, so you're better off cooking in your kitchenette.
You are a skier who wants to walk 5 minutes to the lift
You prefer a quiet glass of wine on a balcony over a noisy bar scene
You have a car and want hassle-free, secure parking

Συχνές ερωτήσεις & Κρυμμένες συμβουλές
Όλα όσα πραγματικά θέλεις να ξέρεις πριν κάνεις κράτηση.
Is there a pool on site?
No, but the Polana Szymoszkowa geothermal thermal pool is literally a 2-minute walk (100m) away.
How far is Krupówki Street?
It's about 1.5 km. A 20-minute brisk walk downhill, or a 5-minute taxi ride.
Is breakfast included?
Not usually. It can sometimes be purchased, but it's often a catered box. Plan to self-cater or eat out.
Is there an elevator?
Yes, the building has elevators connecting the underground garage to the apartments.
Can I bring my dog?
No, the property has a strict no-pets policy.
Is there air conditioning?
Generally no. The mountain air cools things down at night, but south-facing rooms can get warm in July/August.

✨
Skip the crowded Gubałówka funicular; walk 10 mins to the 'Butorowy Wierch' chairlift for a peaceful, scenic ride with better views.
✨
There is a hidden path behind the residence that leads toward the ski slopes, saving you from walking on the main road.
✨
The 'Karczma Szymaszkowa' nearby offers better food and views than many tourist traps on Krupówki.
5 πράγματα που πρέπει να ξέρετε πριν φύγετε
💡The cleaning fee is steep for a 1-night stay; this place is designed for 3+ nights.
💡The 'breakfast' is often just a cold plate delivered to your door, not a buffet.
💡You might hear the snow cannons working at night in winter if you're on the slope side.
💡The garage entrance is tight—take it slow if you have a large SUV.
💡WiFi speed is generally good (25+ Mbps) but can lag when the building is full in peak season.
