Weddings — intimate too, up to 100 guests

An elegant wedding room in the very centre of Kraków that needs no decoration beyond flowers and details. You compose the menu with our Head Chef, and the newlyweds and guests stay overnight under the same roof. The registry office and Old Town churches are a few minutes' walk away.

A venue that works for your celebration

Banquet room in the centre of Kraków

A modern, air-conditioned room with tables arranged any way you like — and around it, everything that sets a hotel reception apart from one in an ordinary restaurant.

  • Up to 100 guests, any layout

    We adapt the table layout to the character of your celebration. For groups of roughly 20–30 or more the room is exclusively yours; for smaller parties we arrange an intimate private area.

  • Menu composed with our Head Chef

    Polish and international cuisine, seasonal specialities and full flexibility — the menu is designed together with you, including your guests' diets and preferences.

  • Children are welcome

    A children's menu (nuggets, chips, pancakes), high chairs, changing tables and room for a pram — parents celebrate at ease while the youngest have all they need.

  • Intimate summer garden

    A toast in the open air, a break from the dance floor or the summer part of the reception — guests move freely between the room and the garden.

  • Private parking in the centre

    20 spaces right by the hotel — a rarity in the strict centre of Kraków. Let us know how many cars to expect and we will reserve the spaces.

  • Discounted rooms for your guests

    92 rooms one floor up and a discount on accommodation for reception guests — nobody crosses the city at night, and you extend the celebration over a shared breakfast.

From light refreshments to a festive dinner

Menu for your reception

We match the format to the occasion: an elegant served dinner, a cold or hot buffet, or lighter refreshments. Add a wide selection of drinks from the hotel bar and cakes made to order.

Festive served dinner

The classic form for Communions, christenings and anniversaries — courses served by waiters, paced to the rhythm of your celebration.

Cold or hot buffet

A more relaxed form for larger groups — a buffet area with hot and cold dishes that encourages conversation and long celebrating.

Cakes & sweet table

On request we prepare a celebration cake and homemade pastries — or we will serve the cake you bring from your own confectioner.

Guests on receptions at MidTown

What organisers say

I organised my husband's surprise 50th birthday here. Everything went perfectly! The manager recommended excellent wines, the food was delicious (guests praised the duck!), and the staff made sure nobody lacked anything. A big plus for being able to stay overnight on site.

— Ewa · 50th birthday

We were looking for a Communion venue in the centre with parking — mission impossible in Kraków, and yet here it was! A perfect location; after Mass at St Andrew's church our guests simply walked over. We highly recommend MidTown Restaurant.
