Comfortable Stay & Great Restaurant

The hotel is well situated. Although it's a little bit dated, we still had a comfortable stay there. The restaurant at the property is amazing. We sat down there and ate for several hours because it was raining outside. The price is excellent.

Could have been better.

Amazing unobstracted view of the mountains and great location just 10min away from centre. As for the hotel it would really need a makeover, it is very dated. But the most disappointed moment was when we arrived with 2 luggages each and the receptionest informed us that our rooms where on the 3rd floor and with a smile she told us that the hotel does not have left. So it was a struggle for 6 ladies to take our belongings 3 floors up. As for the restaurant we where on room only so can not comment.

I was with a group of 40 hillwalkers with my club, and stayed for 7 nights. The hotel staff were extremely friendly, obliging and helpful, and everything was made very easy for us. The food in the restaurant was fabulous - I would highly recommend it. The park setting and the location beside the city centre were ideal and it was great value. Overall, this was the best accommodation that our club has ever had in any of our trips abroad

Wonderful stay in zakopane

The hotel is quite good, with a wonderful view of the mountains and very helpful staff. The only drawback is that there is no lift so be prepared because we had to carry our luggage to the 3rd floor.

Nice, clean hotel

Staff very nice. Clean. Excellent family room with 2 bathrooms! Beds could do with being updated - only let down. Great location. Close to town and Gubalowka mountain. Play room. Good family hotel (if you're ok not having a luxury bed. Didn't bother me, but would my parents).

Nice room but terrible noise

The hotel rooms were lovely and the restraunt next door was great, but there was terrible noise every night with drunk people coming back and messing around in the corridors. When it was mentioned to staff were rude and they said just put earplugs in. I think that is terrible customer service and I would never stay here again.

A bit dated

The hotel was nice enough in a good location. It was just a little dated and the rooms could do with having air conditioning. The staff could also have been a little friendlier.
