We really enjoyed our stay here. The rooms were very clean and the location nice and quiet. The playground was covered in snow and our daughter loved it! The playground even without snow would be amazing. I would definitely come back here again.

A hidden gem!
We were really happy with Villa Gardenia. Martina was extremely welcoming and helpful. The hotel is off of the highway, but not too far,, so there wasn't any noise from traffic. The room was very new, clean, and accommodated all us very comfortably. There are decent restaurant options within easy walking distance. The breakfast buffet served at the hotel was very tasty with plenty of options. Overall, this hotel was an excellent value for the cost, and we would strongly recommend it!

Je důležité předem si domluvit pokoj s přistýlkami. Pokoje jsou různých velikostí, tak aby jste se nemačkali v malé místnosti... Jinak vše je funkční, nové, super lokalita..... - blízko funparku s lyžařskou školou pro děti...

Hotel provides no service at all
Very disappointing and warning to everyone else. When we arrived to the hotel 11pm there was nobody. Tried to call multiple times to the number on the door and their ads, but nobody answered. In hotels.com was information that they are 24/7 open. Finally had to search for another hotel, as we got no service at all.
