    Our room was located just above the restaurant terrace. It was loud during the evenings and there is smoking allowed as well. I recommend specificaly ask not to get room at this part of property.

    Nice architecture with blend of antique and modern. Very good wellness and very nice staff.

    Unfortunately lobby bar was only open until 9:00 p.m. Nothing to do there because also hotel restaurant opening hours were same.

    Generally it is good hotel to relax in quiet places and we enjoyed this.

    Because it was very hot, we had breakfast outside, this place was also reserved for smokers. Smokers should have a place reserved for them somewhere else or smoking should be prohibited during breakfast. The wooden paneling at of the building upon arrival made it look like I had mistaken my place of residence. Other wise, realy, everything was perfect !!!

    Very happy with everything

    - spa cost additionally 7 eur per person per 2 hour - not a big deal but could have been included in the room price (even at the cost of slight higher room Price) - checkout could be at least at 11 (or even 10:30 so there’s time between breakfast ends and checkout) - again it’s not a big deal

    - modern room and hotel -very friendly staff - spacious room - cool spa area

    Amazing hotel. The property has safe private parking , restaurant, exceptional spa & professional massage. The location is very close to Zilina. The reception staff as well as any other staff members we have talked, were extremely helpful and speak english very well. There are art pieces from medieval times at the hotel, makes the stay even more enjoyable.

    A nice place. Seems to be used more by business guests rather that families or couples.

    First of all, when arriving by car, you have to walk quite a lot to get to the reception. Then there is the fact, that for whatever reason, we got a room (101) for disabled people. Even though, there was nothing really wrong with the room and that the bathroom seemed to be bigger, it was not really comfortable to use a toilet placed that high. What was also strange: we were asked repeatedly about making a reservation for a dinner in the hotel restaurant - which we eventually did - but to our surprise only one other table was occupied during our dinner. This was really really strange, especially as the other table arrived after us and without a reservation. No idea what this was about (btw. the dinner was ok, but nothing special, we wouldn't return for the food, not a good value ). Both the wellness and the fitness seem to be available to public as well.

    We liked the building and surroundings itself - it is a very nicely renovated Chateau in a park. It was also great having a balcony. The staff was nice too. The hotel is also well equipped (wellness, fitness, bowling etc.). Breakfast was ok.

    Spiders in the room Sauna not included in the romantic wellness package Head-down setup for the massage Early check out Location near the industrial area The garden and outside wellness need more design touch :) The ham served wasnt fresh The toilet’s sink near the lobby bar doesnt work Also, highly recommend to mark the last step on the 1st floor as it might be dangerous when unseen The cold sink water was actually warm.

    Nice and silent rooms, library and the access to the tower Breakfast options Pool Booking communication Main dinner dishes Comfy beds Parking

    We were in an unairconditioned room. If you want a/c you need to have a more expensive room.....in other words if you use a booking service you probably won't have a/c. We were in an attic room with a small window. Luckily it wasn't a very hot day and there was enough breeze for the room to be comfortable. Just a warning, if you will be there in the summer you need to be aware of this.

    Good dinner and breakfast. Comfortable bed. Good pool but the sauna costs extra...

    There is no air conditioning, it was very hot in the room. The spa area has become paid for hotel guests (before it was free). In the spa, the saunas are very dark, neither the temperature nor the time on the hourglass can be seen. It was very hot in the restaurant in the area where breakfast and dinner were not air-conditioned, while in the room where the staff was, the air conditioners were working.

    Cozy chateau with history and beautiful aesthetics. Friendly staff, free parking available. The rooms are spacious, equipped with everything you need, including high-quality shower gel and shampoo. Good breakfast (included). Excellent spa area (you need to book in advance, 2 hours - 7 euros per person).

    1. No air conditioning in the hotel room which made for a very warm and sweaty stay. 2. Our check in experience was strange. We were just handed the keys and weren’t explained where everything on property is (restaurant, spa, breakfast, etc). Front desk person wasn’t very friendly. 3. The property’s outdoor area is vast yet no area for children to play. 4. In our double room, no stand-alone shower. Just a bathtub with a handheld sprayer which got the bathroom soaked when trying to shower ourselves.

    The bed and pillows are incredibly comfortable. The grounds of the property are very well kept and very clean. The hotel itself is beautiful.

    Shower too small. Far away from many touristic places. Unkind staff. Small windows at the room. You have to sign up for every activity in the wellness center or in the entertainment center and you have to extra pay for every activity but the pool

    It’s well designed, very elegant. The rooms are big.
