Tourist Information Centre

Carpathian Mountains


Tarnów’s tourist information centre offers one of the best sleeping deals in town, letting out rooms above its office on the Rynek. Don’t expect luxury: this is as basic as it gets – just a bed and bath. But you can’t beat it for value. No breakfast, but several cafes are nearby. Call or email to reserve a room.
