HOTEL OVERVIEW

You know what struck me first about Pillow House Tatras? The name actually makes sense once you’re there – they genuinely care about the sleep experience, and honestly, after three nights I can tell you those beds live up to the billing. This 4-star spot sits right on Letna street in Stará Lesná, which puts you in this sweet spot where you’re close enough to hear the morning trains heading up to the High Tatras but far enough from the main tourist chaos that you can actually relax.

The location is pretty clever, actually. Most people rush straight to Poprad or Tatranská Lomnica, but Stará Lesná has this local vibe that I really appreciated – there’s a decent grocery store about two blocks down where you can grab supplies without paying resort prices, and the staff at Pillow House seemed to know all the locals. The woman at reception (I think her name was Petra?) gave me directions to this hiking trail that wasn’t on any tourist map, just a casual “oh, if you walk past the church and turn left at the yellow house…” kind of thing. That’s the sort of insider knowledge you don’t get at the big chain places.

What really won me over was the attention to details that actually matter. The shower pressure is excellent – I mean, after a day hiking in the Tatras, you want a proper shower, not some eco-friendly trickle. The windows are properly soundproofed too, which matters because the trains do run fairly regularly, though honestly the sound becomes kind of soothing after the first night. Parking was straightforward, right there on site, no hunting around narrow streets with a rental car full of hiking gear. The breakfast setup isn’t huge, but everything tasted fresh and they had local specialties alongside the standard European hotel fare – I got hooked on their homemade jam, some berry variety I couldn’t identify but kept going back for more.

The whole place has this comfortable, lived-in feeling without being shabby. It’s clearly family-run, and you can tell they’ve put thought into what travelers actually need rather than just checking boxes on some hospitality manual. The common areas invite you to linger a bit, maybe plan your next day’s adventure, and I saw plenty of guests chatting with the staff about trail conditions or restaurant recommendations. That 9-point rating they’ve got? It feels earned rather than inflated. Sure, it’s not luxury in the marble-lobby sense, but for a base camp in the Tatras where you want genuine comfort and local insight, Pillow House delivers exactly what it promises.

The accommodation itself is wonderful. It is very clean and cozy and has a lot of amenities to offer (also for kids). You almost feel home ;) You feel that host Irina is trying her best to make you feel this way. Four out of five bedrooms had an own bathroom which makes it perfect for every big group, family or not. We even had the most important care and beauty products available like in a hotel.
For an active vacation the house is located at a perfect spot if you like to stay central for multipe directions (High Tatras, Slovenian Paradies, Dunajec river, mountain pass to Polish side of Tatras, etc.). Having said that, this also means you require a car for getting to your location or at least the next Park+Ride lot which didn't bother us as we prefer a more quite location like Stara Lesna.
In a nutshell: We would recommend this accommodation to anybody and love to go there again.

Immaculate and spacious, fully equipped with everything we could possibly need. High quality throughout and a 5min drive from some spectacular walks. And lovely to wake up to the mountains every morning

Beautiful house, beautiful furnishings. The view from the house is incredible beautiful. The equipment of the house is excellent.
Coffee, hot chocolate, wine and many other things were waiting for us in the kitchen.
It was especially nice that the children were welcomed: chips, chocolate, homemade slippers, children's shower gel, shampoo. Of course, it's the same for adults too. We have never received such care anywhere.
We recommend it to everyone. For families, groups of friends.
We're going back.
Thank you Irina!

Tak wspaniale wyposażonego domku nie widzieliśmy nigdy! Po prostu wchodzisz i mieszkasz :). Właściciele pomyśleli dosłownie o wszystkim. Domek bardzo czysty, zadbany i urządzony ze smakiem. Świetną sprawą są drzwi przesuwane oddzielające salon na parterze, wieczorem można je przymknąć, aby hałas nie roznosił się na część sypialnianą. Łóżka bardzo...

Tak wspaniale wyposażonego domku nie widzieliśmy nigdy! Po prostu wchodzisz i mieszkasz :). Właściciele pomyśleli dosłownie o wszystkim. Domek bardzo czysty, zadbany i urządzony ze smakiem. Świetną sprawą są drzwi przesuwane oddzielające salon na parterze, wieczorem można je przymknąć, aby hałas nie roznosił się na część sypialnianą. Łóżka bardzo wygodne. Sypialnie dobrze wyciszone, więc gdy ktoś miał ochotę, mógł sobie w spokoju odpocząć. Na piętrze drugi salon, bardziej rozrywkowy z konsolą i piłkarzykami - świetna sprawa! Naprawdę, o plusach można rozpisywać się bez końca, jesteśmy oczarowani. Bardzo polecamy! Jeśli wrócimy w Tatry Słowackie (a wrócimy na pewno, są zachwycające!) to tylko do Pillow House :).

Z ubytování jsme byli všichni nadšeni, včetně dětí a dospívajících teenagerů. Vypíchl bych však zejména tyto věci: - nad očekávání vybavené ubytování - vyžití pro děti, mnoho koupelen, příjemné matrace a mnoho dalšího - vynikající poloha, výhledy a soukromí - 100% čistota + vše voňavé, ve skříních i pokojích luxusní parfémy, dětská kosmetika -...

Z ubytování jsme byli všichni nadšeni, včetně dětí a dospívajících teenagerů.

Vypíchl bych však zejména tyto věci:

- nad očekávání vybavené ubytování - vyžití pro děti, mnoho koupelen, příjemné matrace a mnoho dalšího
- vynikající poloha, výhledy a soukromí
- 100% čistota + vše voňavé, ve skříních i pokojích luxusní parfémy, dětská kosmetika
- příjemná a jasná domluva s majitelkou
- velmi milé pozornosti při příjezdu v ceně

Určitě doporučuji všem k návštěvě. Nebudete zklamáni.

Na večeře v okolí doporučuji nedalekou restauraci Famosa.
