In the heart of Kazimierz, Kraków's historic Jewish quarter, stands Hotel Rubinstein—a testament to the city's rich tapestry of history and culture. But it's the Sky Bar at this iconic hotel that offers guests an ethereal experience, combining unparalleled views with sophisticated indulgence.
Hotel Rubinstein is named after Helena Rubinstein, the renowned cosmetics magnate who was born in one of the townhouses now forming part of the hotel. The property, with its centuries-old architecture and carefully preserved details, echoes tales of bygone eras.
