Hotel Under the Rose

Hotel Pod Roza, Hotel Pod Roza
Poland, Krakow
The Pod Rose Hotel 4* is the first in Krakow, located in the center of the Old Town, in a former Renaissance palace of the 16th century, owned by the family of Prosper Provana, courtier of the Polish Queen and Grand Duchess of Lithuania, Bona Sforza. The facade of the four-story hotel is adorned with a massive portico, in the late Renaissance style, with a dedication in Latin: "so that this house stands until the ant drinks the sea, and the turtle goes around the whole world." After the next owners of the palace converted it into a hotel at the beginning of the 19th century, many famous guests visited here. Among the most famous are: Russian Tsar Alexander I with his brother Konstantin, composer and pianist Franz Liszt, writer Honore de Balzac.

In the second half of the XVI century the house belonged to the family of Prosper Provanni, who in 1558 at the behest of King Casimir Augustus organized a regular postal service between Krakow and Venice. Since then, the house is decorated with a beautiful Renaissance portal, with massive columns. A Latin inscription above the entrance reads: "Let this house stand until the ant drinks the sea, and the turtle travels around the world. " At the beginning of the 19th century, the Burchynski family, who owned the house at the time, opened a hotel here.
