’Wyspiański’ Hotel (formerly „Dom Turysty” — PTTK Hotel)
Characteristic, slightly curved elevation of the building follows the arch of the Westerplatte St. In this way a fluid connection of the once new, recessed edifice with the neighbouring fabric was achieved. The elevation has a distinctly marked ground floor and the higher floors are a cohesive and expressive ‘grid’ which is formed of loggias with full balustrades. Originally the building had a white and light grey colour scheme. A fragment of the wall at the main entrance was executed of small granite blocks, rectangular and rusticated — in a horizontal layout with deepened grouts. The rear part of the building is situated at a different level. Originally in the main hall there were expressive, winding stairs. Interiors were individually designed, including a wall with ceramic patterns, a colourful frieze and a sculptural map of the then [Krakow] voivodeship. Most interiors were transformed but the external form and its divisions were preserved. It was awarded with the 3 rd degree Prize of the Committee of Urbanism, Building and Architecture in 1963.
