Panorama Townhouse

Panorama Townhouse turned out to be a real gem during our Carpathian trip! This three-star hotel is located on Gornaya Street in Polyana, and the name itself hints at what to expect here — the windows really offer incredible panoramic mountain views. Check-in went smoothly (we arrived around four in the afternoon), the staff is friendly and always ready to help with local routes. Parking is no problem either — there’s a private area, which is especially convenient when you arrive by car with all your ski equipment.

The rooms are cozy, though not very large, but that’s normal for a mountain hotel. Hot water was always available, which after a full day on the slopes is simply a lifesaver. Breakfasts are decent, though the selection isn’t very diverse, but everything is fresh and well-prepared. In the evenings, you can sit in the lobby — there’s a small relaxation area with a fireplace where it’s nice to have tea after walks. The only downside — sometimes you can hear neighbors returning late at night (the walls aren’t very thick), but this is more a feature of old buildings in this area.

What I especially liked was the location. It’s about a fifteen-minute leisurely walk to the lifts, and there are plenty of cafes and small shops around. The winter views are simply magical, and I imagine it must be wonderful here in summer for hiking too. For this price and with a rating of 8.0 points — it’s quite a decent option for those looking for a comfortable place without excessive pretensions. We’ll definitely come back here again!
