We compete in the “Best Castle-Palace Hotel” category, with the final result decided by online votes. So today, we ask for your support.

What is the ranking?

The ranking’s purpose is to showcase Polish heritage not only as history but also as a key reason to travel in Poland. From royal residences and mighty fortresses to Renaissance palaces and romantic ruins off the beaten path – it encourages discovering places that can inspire exploring entire regions.

In four categories – “Most Beautiful Castle,” “Most Beautiful Palace,” “Most Atmospheric Ruins,” and “Best Castle-Palace Hotel” – experts from Travelist Magazine and the Polish Tourism Organization jointly selected fifteen nominees each. Their criteria included historical, cultural, and architectural significance, preservation, authenticity, and tourist importance. The fifth main category – “Poles’ Favorite Castle or Palace” – has no nominees list: anyone can vote for any site in Poland they find exceptional.
