The incongruously recent-looking Hotel Kopernik has 42 neat rooms that exude early millennial optimism – all citrus walls and cheap-but-sturdy furniture. Some rooms have cathedral views. There's a budget restaurant occupied most evenings by the mostly German residents of the hotel. The Teutonic guests also guarantee the breakfast spread is a good one. No English spoken.
