Fantastic Hotel, Location and Price!!

Reiseportale wie Tripadvisor sind ja nicht nur nützliche und bisweilen unterhaltsame Hilfsmittel um herauszufinden, welche Hotels einem in der Fremde behagen könnten oder wo blutbefleckte Betten und schwarzer Schimmel im Bad den Aufenthalt beeinträchtigen könnten, sondern sie eröffnen uns auch bisweilen einen ganz neuen Blick auf die Welt. Stichwort: Schwarmintelligenz!

Tripadvisor-Userin BoltonPrendi, eine offenbar ziemlich lokalpatriotische Dame, die gewöhnlich “for Fun” reist, zwischen 50 und 64 Jahren, aus Bolton – das liegt übrigens in der Gegend von Manchester – , teilt zum Anlass einer Besprechung des Hotels “Wyspianski” zu Kraków sehr freizügig nicht nur ihre Eindrücke, sondern auch ihre Bilder mit uns. Et voici le résultat :

Wyspianski

Wer noch einen Beleg gebraucht hätte, dass Auschwitz aus der modernen Welt nicht herauszubekommen ist: Le voilà!

Hier übrigens auch noch BoltonPrendis Hotelkritik, ein weiterer Beleg dafür, dass zwischen Mamma Mias Pizza und Auschwitz möglicherweise nicht Welten liegen, sondern bei Lichte besehen nicht einmal ein Leerschlag:

we have just returned from a 4 day break in krakow,poland.we stayed at the wyspianskimand it was great,the room was great,the price was great,the food was good,but different.the breakfasts were cereals,not much choice,salad looking things,eggs with cucumber on top??hot onions ,hot dogs,bacon looking things,very strange.no fry ups but it was sufficient to keep you going.we didnt eat in the restaurant at night as it didnt look too busy.instead we ate at the virtuoso in the main square,it was lovely food and very reasonable,we had cocktails ther too.weate at the alter ego pub and mamma mias the pizza there was excellent.we visited the auchswitz and birkenau camps with a company called “discover krakow,they were great.we booked the day before and paid 130 zlotys each.we were picked up by Peter and taken to a larger mini bus.we watched a dvd on the bus,preparing us as to what to expect.we were then taken round the camps by a girl called Marina,she was very knowledgable and was very pleasant.we were then dropped off around 6 hours later,it was all very proffessional,as was the boy in the booking shop,Darek,he spoke very good english too.So if you are looking for a good hotel and a good company to visit the camps with look no further.by the way not many people in the shops can speak english so you have to do a bit of sign language!! also the reception staff at the hotel didnt seem to understand what we were talking about,all apart from 2 of the staff who were very nice.Enjoy your trip.
