As heavy construction is
going on at the central railway station in Cracow, and no public
transportation is available in the vicinity, we recommend you the
following way to get to your hotel:
after getting off the train, you should go up (or take a lift) and take a taxi on the upper level of the railway station. For example: a taxi to the Novotel-Bronowice hotel costs about 5-6 Euro, at nights can be more.
