The staff were all quite friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and well-equipped. The only thing that would have made the room better is air conditioning, but that was not a big deal. The hotel's private parking is handy and relatively easy to get in and out of. The location is convenient for walking to all of the major sights in Banska Bystrica as well as restaurants, bars, & shops.

Good sized apartment at a reasonable price
My wife and I stayed here for four nights. The hotel is one street behind the town square in the old part of town and only 5 minutes walk to Banská Bystrica Mesto railway station. The location is good, being close to the Europa Shopping Mall (10 minutes) and the central train and bus stations (15 minutes walk). The hotel has a nice entrance foyer that adjoins a cafe that is used by hotel guests for their breakfast. Breakfasts were included and there was a good selection catering for many different tastes. Check-in was quick and efficient and the staff, who spoke reasonable English were very helpful. Our room was a good size with a very comfortable bed and serviced daily. There was room for a lounge and coffee table. There was also plenty of hanging space and places to store our luggage. The bathroom has a shower over a bathtub. However the shower is a hand held one and is set at midriff height with no shower screen or curtain making it difficult to wash yourself. There are also no towel racks if you want to reuse your towels. The room has heating but no aircon. It was very hot (around 27C) and because it is on a busy street is very noisy at night. If you closed the windows to shut out the noise it was stifling hot and if you kept the windows open the noise disturbed your sleep. In summer, ask for a room that doesn’t face the road.

A great spot to stay in a little-know city
This hotel is basically a new, serviced apartment in an enviable location; one street away from major attractions like the extensive main square with a host of summer alfresco dining options, the top class SNP (military) museum and a short walk to the largest nightclub in Central Europe. Never heard of it? I'd suggest going for a trip to Banksa Bystricka!

Great welcome and even better after that
The receptionist at the hotel put us at ease from the word get go. Everything was sorted out, car parking opened up and then we went up to the room. The room was a palace with kitchen dining area, lounge area and bed and with ample shelves. Location was 50metres walk from town square. I could not fault the hotel nor the stay.

Very Good Price Value
Spacious, clean, well-appointed room in a very convenient location for walking to the town center. Very helpful, friendly and competent reception staff and very nice breakfast. Not a luxury hotel, but quite pleasant and very good price/value. They need to get blackout curtains however.

It is OK but did not have the amenities promised
The hotel lists on its website "All units have kitchens with stovetops, microwaves, refrigerators, and separate dining areas.". This is not true. Our room only had a small refrigerator. The person who checked us in didn't speak much English (it was a Sunday) and we had a difficulty communicating wit her about a hair dryer (which they didn't have) and Internet access in the room (which doesn't always work) so I didn't try to ask about the kitchen. Overall, the room is spacious, neighborhood is nice, it is very close to the city center. The toilet seat had a hair on it, but otherwise everything seemed clean and we slept well. Oh, and there are not drapes to black out the room, so if light bothers while sleeping then you should bring an eye patch. Also, the TV is only in Slovakian.
