Thanks to an individual approach, we want to provide our guests with a sublime journey that will allow them to discover the historical capital of Poland in a truly royal style. We are proud to start the local history of the unique Handwritten Collection brand in our hotel" said Patrycja Matyjaszczyk, Brand Manager.
