The Ultimate Backpacker’s Guide to Kraków: Save Money on Luggage Storage

Backpackers in Krakow looking for cheap luggage storage and lockers

Kraków is a paradise for backpackers. It offers amazing hostels, cheap and delicious street food, and incredible nightlife. However, carrying a massive 60-liter backpack around the Old Town after you check out of your hostel is exhausting and definitely not fun. If you are traveling on a budget and need a place to leave your gear, here is the ultimate travel hack for finding the best cheap luggage storage Krakow has to offer.

1Skip the Expensive "Per Bag" Storage

Most traditional left luggage Krakow offices and station cloakrooms charge you for every single item you leave. If you have a main backpack, a daypack, and a sleeping bag, the costs add up quickly. At Kiss & Store, we do things differently: you pay per locker, not per bag!

2Share a Locker with Friends

Because you pay for the space and not the number of items, you can easily split the cost with your travel buddies. Rent one of our Large (L) lockers at our Krakow train station luggage storage (Radziwiłłowska 26A) or in the Jewish Quarter (Miodowa 7). You can easily fit 2 or 3 large backpacks inside a single locker, making it incredibly cheap when you split the bill.

3No Apps, No Hidden Fees

Backpackers often rely on free Wi-Fi and have limited phone storage. That’s why our 100% automated facility requires absolutely no apps to download. Just walk in, use the terminal, pay securely with your card, and take your printed access code.

4Flexible Pricing for Nomads

Hostel check-outs are usually at 10:00 AM, but your night bus or cheap flight might not leave until late evening. Our pricing fits your schedule perfectly. You pay an upfront rate for the first 4 hours. If you want to spend the whole day exploring, any extra time is simply "pay as you go" at the terminal when you return.

5Keep Your Tech Safe

Backpackers often carry expensive cameras, laptops, and drones. Don't leave them in an unsecured hostel corridor. Our luggage lockers Krakow are CCTV-monitored 24/7, and every rental automatically includes up to €1000 in insurance. Lock your gear up safely and go enjoy a free walking tour or a night out in Kazimierz!
