Close to the station some 500m south of central Pszczyna, this budget hotel occupies a former red-brick prison that housed its last inmate in 1975. There’s nothing cell-like about the rooms now, though nine of the cheaper ones share facilities. Breakfast is not included, but there's a kitchen for guest use.
