I especially liked the traditional aesthetics of the premises and the façade of the hotel, which made me enjoy the authenticity of Banska Stiavnica very much. All the staff was very friendly and helpful. A special help for me and my friend was that the room was split into two separate room with a bathroom in the middle, so we both had quiet sleep...

All the staff was very friendly and helpful. A special help for me and my friend was that the room was split into two separate room with a bathroom in the middle, so we both had quiet sleep. Given the very reasonable price, I was 100 % satisfied and can't wait to accomodate in the same room again.
