Apartment Nad Łomniczką-3 by Interhome

HOTEL OVERVIEW

You know what? I wasn’t expecting much when I first pulled up to this Interhome apartment in Karpacz – honestly, the name “Nad Łomniczką-3” doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue, and I’d been burned by vacation rental descriptions before. But this place actually surprised me in the best way possible. It’s tucked into this quiet residential area where you can hear the Łomniczka stream (that’s what the name refers to, by the way) gurgling away in the background, which is surprisingly soothing after a day of hiking around the Karkonosze mountains. The apartment itself feels like someone’s well-loved weekend retreat rather than a sterile rental – there’s this lived-in comfort that makes you want to kick off your boots and actually relax.

What really won me over was how the place just works for mountain life. The kitchen’s properly equipped (I mean, you can actually cook a real meal here, not just heat up instant noodles), and there’s enough space to spread out your gear after a day on the trails. The location is pretty clever too – you’re close enough to walk into Karpacz center when you want that tourist buzz and the restaurants along the main drag, but far enough away that you’re not dealing with the crowds of people heading to the cable car at 7 AM. I loved being able to grab fresh bread from the little bakery just down the hill in the mornings, then planning out hikes over coffee while listening to that stream. The parking situation is straightforward, which honestly is half the battle in these mountain towns where everyone’s fighting for spaces near the ski lifts.

Here’s the thing though – this isn’t some luxury resort experience, and that’s exactly why it works so well. It’s got that authentic Polish mountain hospitality feel, where everything’s clean and comfortable without being fussy about it. The beds are actually good (you know how hit-or-miss that can be), and the Wi-Fi holds up when you need to upload those summit photos or check the weather forecast for tomorrow’s adventure. Winter or summer, you’re really well-positioned here – Śnieżka peak is totally doable as a day trip, and if you’re into the whole spa thing, you can hit the thermal baths in the area and come back to decompress. I’d definitely book this place again, especially since finding decent accommodation in Karpacz that doesn’t cost a fortune or feel like a generic hotel room is trickier than you’d think.
