Breakfast
Amber Design Residence offers a breakfast experience that may surprise guests in several ways.

Parking
Amber Design Residence in Krakow offers some logistical challenges when it comes to parking. While there is limited parking available directly in front of the hotel for loading and unloading, the situation becomes trickier for extended stays. Many guests were pleasantly surprised by the convenience of short-term parking at the entrance, but long-term parking solutions are less straightforward.

Several reviews highlight that parking options are generally off-site and often come with an additional cost of around 80 zloty per day. Nearby parking lots, such as a monitored theater parking lot within a five-minute walk, offer some relief despite the extra expense. Nonetheless, guests frequently reported a lack of clear information about parking facilities, both on-site and in the vicinity, leading to confusion and wasted time searching for spots.

In a bustling area like Krakow's city center, the challenge of finding available parking spaces is continuously mentioned with some guests needing to park as far as 300 meters away. The absence of hotel-managed parking and the need for guarded parking lots underscore the necessity for better communication and potentially pre-arranged agreements with local parking providers.

While the hotel staff sometimes assist by organizing external parking solutions, the lack of consistent and reliable parking arrangements means that those driving into the city might face significant inconvenience. Overall, improving parking logistics and transparency would greatly enhance the guest experience at Amber Design Residence.
