"Beautiful ugly" - these two words, spoken with great tenderness about the
Hotel Forest, reflect its beauty and non-obvious character. This extraordinary building located in the heart of the Wolski Forest is an example of a skillful combination of opposing forms by architects from the Krakow University of Technology, who designed the whole in the spirit of the late modernist trend in architecture known as brutalism.
Minimalism, simple form, industrial character and raw materials gave a coherent character to the entire space of the facility. This place, which is so close to the center of Krakow, and at the same time surrounded by a beautiful forest, attracts guests who are looking for non-obvious places that give them space, freedom and peace.
The hotel building is located 200 m from the Przegorzały Castle and the historic Tower, creating a complex of unique buildings on the Castle Hill. Hotel Wolski has 85 spacious rooms, a restaurant, 7 conference rooms, including an auditorium for 180 people and an internal courtyard. You will feel at ease with us, having many opportunities to spend time actively, or to calm down and regenerate in contact with nature.
The hotel building is designed in such a way that, on the one hand, it offers a large conference space (auditorium), and at the same time its architecture is conducive to work in smaller groups. It is a place conducive to the organization of closed events, in particular workshops, design works, meetings and symposia. The atmosphere of the place is conducive to concentration and creative work.
The satellite location of the Forest Hotel on the Castle Hill allows easy access by car to the center of Krakow and famous towns such as Wieliczka, Oświęcim, and Zakopane. It is also a place surrounded by famous attractions (Zoological Garden, Camaldolese Monastery, Tadeusz Kościuszko Mound), which can be reached on foot or by bike.
