Reviews of Penzión Ingrid 3 stars

I stayed at Penzión Ingrid during my trip across Slovakia and it was one of the best value-for-money places I found. The location is great, just a few steps from the cog railway, and the rooms are clean, quiet, and comfortable. A special mention goes to the young man at the reception – he knows a lot about the area and gave me excellent tips for trips. With the warm hospitality and cozy atmosphere, this pension offers a unique balance of comfort and price. I would happily return here again.

Location (very close to rack railway stop), nice communication style, breakfast, large room, price (when discounted)

Perfect place for good price to stay for hiking in Tatra mountains. 10-15 min drive by car to Štrbske pleso where all hiking routes start. Also there is a train you can use. Appreaciate free parking and good internet connection. Breakfast was good and we liked it all 4 days we stayed. Staff was helpfull and kind.

Nothing to complain in general.

I’ve had the most wonderfull holiday here, one of the best i even had. The penzion is located on a quiet road between the town of Strba and the mountains, only a two minute walk from a small trainstation. Tickets come at €6,- for the entire day, along the south-eastern part of the tatra mountains which is much cheaper than the parking lot’s. Don’t worry about potential noise as there’s none. The penzion is clean and well maintained. Bedrooms come with a balcony to relax and offer a nice view of the garden and it’s surroundings and due to all the wooden touches leave the impression you’re staying in a modern cabin in the woods. The beds were perfect and provided a welcome support after exhausting days of hiking. Breakfast is fresh and offers a wide range of options. The owners, a mother and son, are lovely and honest people who do what they can to support and guide you through your holiday in the amazing mountainous area. I’ve had many talks with the son in english about a wide range of subjects and interests, truly a great guy who loves to take care of people and likes his job. Any advice about which hiking trails to pick best can be provided, or other places to visit if you wish to explore other parts of this wonderfull country. Since the main highway from eastern to western Slovakia is only a couple of minutes driving away, the penzion offers a wide range of options. There’s the regional hiking in the tatra mountains of course, which has one of the most stunning views to offer in all of Europe. The country has the highest castle per capita ratios in the world, so pick your favourite, fully restored or visit one of the ruins that brings back memories of it’s medieval past. There’s the beautifull cities of Bratislava in the west and Kosice in the east to visit. Driving through this country is wonderfull as well. People drive calm and thoughfull and due to all the different altitudes it’s a really fun experience and offers many spectaculair views along the way.

The location is perfect, just 10 minutes drive from Strbske Pleso where we were hiking to mountains. Comfortable beds, peaceful atmosphere made our stay very relaxing.

Outstanding Stay – Highly Recommended! Our holiday at this hotel was fantastic! The hospitality was exceptional—warm and genuine. The food was delicious- we ordered the burgers and fries. And the hosts were incredibly helpful, even taking the time to guide us through city highlights and nearby trails. A special thanks to Joseph for taking such great care of us. Highly recommend this gem for anyone looking for comfort, great food and top notch service.

Friendly staff, great breakfast, good location.

Nice, friendly Staff, quiet place, very good breakfast

Could be a bit cheaper

Great breakfast choice Free parking Nice and helpfull staff Very close to train stop - Zubacka

We didnt mind, but someone could complain about older furniture There was small kitchen, but there was no kitchen towel to dry the dishes

Did not make it to breakfast; too relaxed ;)

Maybe an extra teabag or two, but really nothing not to like

Close to railway

Lack of microwave or place to prepare a snack

Friendly and helpful staff (be prepared to use google translate). Daily cleaning kept the room tidy and neat. Location is right next to the train station (unfortunately only hourly trains to Strbske Pleso though). Large room where I was able to spread out. Large bathroom as well, with a decently sized shower. Beautiful view from my window. Great price for the comfort level.

Hourly trains to Strbske Pleso make planning your mornings an essential. Walls definitely on the thinner side, on my 3rd night I heard my noisy neighbors check in and have a little party.

Location is very close to Strbske Pleso! Also it's near train station that leads directly to Strbske Pleso and other locations. Nice, peaceful place surrounded with beautiful nature. I will come back here for sure!

Great location, very convenient for the COG Railway.

Nothing - all good

super location, tram station to Strbske Pleso is 2 min walk (in fact, 20-25 min, because of there is a beer point halfway ;)) in general, this accomodation fully satisfies us.

There is no soap dish in the shower. We lack a little fridge, too.

Our visit was during peak season, and we found the cost-quality ratio to be quite optimal. We were fortunate to have been allocated a spacious room that included its own terrace. Several positive aspects about our stay include: - Comfortable mattresses that weren’t overly soft. - Sizeable rooms housed in a separate apartment. - Availability of a kitchenette and kitchen for preparing light meals. - Convenient location close to the train station, yet providing quietude and great air quality. - Proximity to a few delicious restaurants and a small supermarket providing most of the essentials. - Ease of access to neighboring towns via train. - Hospitable and amiable staff. - A delightful breakfast spread for a week-long stay. - Access to private parking facilities.

Personally, I don't favor carpeted floors :)
