Nathan's Villa is located less than 100 meters from Wawel Castle and right in the middle between Krakow's main square and the Kazimierz district. We are in walking distance to all the main clubs and pubs, so you can easily and safely walk home after a long night. There's an ATM at 10 meters, and the best thing is that there's a 24H EVERYTHING STORE right around the corner!
