Rezydencja & SPA Czarny Niedźwiedź

HOTEL OVERVIEW
You know what caught me off guard about Rezydencja & SPA Czarny Niedźwiedź? The name sounds intimidating (it means “Black Bear” in Polish), but this place is actually one of the most welcoming spots I’ve stayed at in the Tatra foothills. It’s tucked away on Wojdyłówka street in Kościelisko – honestly, I drove past it twice before spotting the understated entrance, which should tell you something about how locals prefer their mountain retreats. The building itself has this beautiful traditional Polish highland architecture mixed with modern touches, and when you walk in, there’s this immediate sense of warmth that has nothing to do with the fireplace crackling in the lobby (though that doesn’t hurt either).
What really sets this place apart is how they’ve managed to feel both luxurious and completely unpretentious. The spa – and I mean this – actually lives up to the hype. I’m usually skeptical about hotel spas, but after a long day hiking around Gubałówka, sinking into their wellness area felt like exactly what my legs needed. The rooms are spacious without being cavernous, and the beds… well, let’s just say I slept better than I had in months. The staff genuinely seems to enjoy working there, which you notice in little things like how they remember your coffee preference after day one, or the way they’ll casually mention that the weather’s perfect for visiting Morskie Oko if you’re up for the drive.
Here’s the thing though – Kościelisko isn’t Zakopane, and that’s precisely why you want to stay here. You’re about ten minutes from all the tourist chaos when you want it, but you get to come back to this peaceful pocket where the loudest sound at night is probably someone choking up wood for the morning fires. The location is brilliant for exploring the whole region without feeling like you’re camping in the middle of a postcard shop. Parking is straightforward (trust me, this matters in mountain towns), check-in was smooth, and honestly, the whole experience just felt… right. It’s the kind of place where a 4-star rating feels conservative, and that 9-point-something guest score makes complete sense once you’ve been there. If you’re looking for a base camp for the Tatras that doesn’t sacrifice comfort for authenticity, this is your spot.

The apartment size makes you fill you are at home, very suitable for Capules and small families, if with more than 2 kids I recommend a bigger apartment with them.
