There is a small difference between Polish and Hungarian trains, the Hungarian ones have a little bit nicer sleepers and the Polish ones have a little bit nicer seating. It also depends on which class you are travelling in. First is usually with two beds and second is with four, both classes though, are among the best you can find in Europe because both countries use their absolute nicest trains on these routes, manufactured in Germany and Austria in the last two to five years.

Your train will start it's journey in Krakow (it is not a connecting one from Warsaw) so you will mosy likely to be able to board by 9pm.

Be prepared to be waken up about three-four times during the night for border control !

Here is your schedule...
