From the travel guide. Select a place for details, a map and what is nearby.
The Manor House, in nearby Chlewiska is a great option if you don't mind spending some significant money. However, for that price you will be staying in a world class resort which offers not only a hotel, but a great restaurant, spa, and local recreation such as horseback riding. Parts of the complex are approx 800 years old and renovated to be truly magnificent.
By car
Szydłowiec is very near to the highway connecting Warsaw and Kraków. It has two exits, both north and south of the town.
The town centre of Szydłowiec is very small so it is easy to get around on foot.
