Going in September and have never been before. Is 4 days enough?

no idea but following for ideas

We stayed in the Unicus Palace in the centre of the old town, which was a lovely hotel. 4 days will be plenty and that should be enough to also have an out of town visit to eg Auschwitz or the salt mines.

Hi OP, we stayed here in November for four nights:

It cost us about €90 each (two people) but may be more in September. It was a beautiful apartment and a short walk to the main square etc. We had three full days which was perfect; the first day we wandered about and did a walking tour and on the second and third days visited Auschwitz and the salt mines.

I stayed here

vg location and could walk everywhere. I think 4 days would be ideal, time for Auschwitz and the salt mines and everything in the old town too.

I’m going back next month for my third visit in a year, I love krakow. We stay in an apartment just beside The Planty and a few minute walk to the main square

We stayed here in June and absolutely loved it. It's a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment with a terrace on Juliana Dunajewskiego directly across the road from Planty.

It was clean, well appointed and very close to everything, main square a couple of minutes' walk etc. We would definitely book there again. Lots of fantastic restaurants/bars etc very close by too.

We stayed at the Vienna Easy hotel in Krakow. It was a bit too far out of town but easy enough to get the tram. We did a golf buggy tour of the city, went to the aviation museum, the castle, did a bagel making workshop, went to the pinball museum.

Love Krakow. Only spent 2 days there but it is beautiful.
Listen out for the on the hour trumpeter - apparently he doesn't always get his tune right
From what I remember it's actually a recording now and deliberately stops mid way through at something like 4pm to commemorate the trumpeter many years ago who was shot in the neck mid play.

Ok the shot in the throat bit is true but it's still a live musician.
