Information

Construction of the hotel began in 1978 and was finished in 1988. It was supposed to be the largest, most modern and most luxurious hotel in Krakow. It functioned as a hotel up to 2002 when it became a commercial spot, where you could advertise your buisness or else. The hotel building 110 meters long and 40 meters high, had 278 rooms for usage and 6 conference rooms that could accommodate up to 600 people.

Now Hotel Forum serves as an entertainment center with the Forum Fun & Food restaurant at the ground floor, the rooftop Panorama Forum restaurant, and a nightclub in the basement. Some floors remain abandoned, attracting urbex fans.
