HOTEL OVERVIEW
You know what struck me first about BOCANKA? It’s not trying to be anything other than what it is – a proper Slovak cottage that happens to be really, really good at hosting people. I mean, when you pull up to Nižná Boca 573, you’re not exactly in the middle of tourist central, but that’s honestly the whole point. This little village sits tucked away in a spot where you can actually hear yourself think, and the cottage fits right into the landscape like it’s been there forever.
The place has this lived-in warmth that you just can’t fake – thick wooden beams, that slightly uneven floor charm that comes with authentic old buildings, and windows that frame views of the surrounding hills like they were planned by nature itself. What I loved was how the owners (and you can tell they actually care about this place) managed to keep all the traditional character while sneaking in modern comforts without making it feel forced. The heating works perfectly, which matters more than you’d think when you’re staying in a mountain village, and there’s proper hot water pressure – honestly, these details make or break a stay for me. The Wi-Fi actually reaches the bedroom too, though you might find yourself using it less than usual because there’s something about this place that makes you want to just… be present, you know?
Here’s the thing about staying in Nižná Boca – you’re about twenty minutes from Liptovský Mikuláš if you need bigger town amenities, but close enough to some incredible hiking that you can literally walk out the front door and be on trails within minutes. The cottage sits at just the right elevation where mornings are crisp but not brutal, and evenings have that perfect mountain air quality that makes you sleep better than you have in months. Parking’s right there (no hunting for spots or feeding meters), and the check-in was refreshingly straightforward – none of that overly complicated key card nonsense. I actually appreciated how quiet it stays at night; you get natural sounds instead of traffic, but it’s not so remote that you feel cut off from civilization. The 9-star rating makes complete sense once you’ve spent a night there – it’s not luxury in the marble-and-gold sense, but it’s luxury in the “everything works exactly as it should and feels authentically Slovak” sense, which is honestly more valuable.

This is a lovely cottage in Tatra’s heart, it has so much cute details wich reminds me of my grandma’s house, well equipped and clean. I especially liked that there was a fence so my dog could run around.
The host is kind and tells you all the important information.
We really love this place and recommend it to everyone!☺️

Nous avons vraiment apprécié l'emplacement, chaque matin nous tirions au sort vers quelles Tatras nous allions en voyage. La cheminée, les meubles et les jolis accessoires de chalet donnent à ce lieu 50% de charme, l'autre moitié est la belle maison. Il y a tout ce dont vous avez besoin : matériel de cuisine, excellent café, serviettes, bois, jeux...

Mali sme úžasný pobyt. Všetko bolo skvelé od samého začiatku. Vyzdvihnutie kľúčov bez problémov, aj keď sme dorazili okolo 22:00 Bezplatné parkovanie. Atmosféra v dedinke je úžasná.. Drevenička bola veľmi čistá, vybavená všetkým potrebným pre každého rekreanta. Skvelá obývačka s TV. Netflix a internet fungujú (dokonca aj vonku). Vnútri aj vonku...

Výnimočná chalúpka v krásnom prostredí. Cítili sme sa ako v rozprávke. V chalúpke nájdete všetko, čo potrebujete, aj mnoho navyše (vybavenie kuchyne vrátane korenín; či čelovky na večernú výpravu,...). Komunikácia s domácou na výbornú.
Monika from Slovakia
Dnes sme sa akurát vrátili z tejto nádhernej dreveničky, musím vyzdvihnúť vybavenie, naozaj v nej nič nechýbalo, pani majiteľka myslela na všetko. Ďakujeme za krásny pobyt. Určite sa radi vrátime.

Nádherná chalúpka ako z rozprávky vybavená všetkým, čo na pobyt potrebujete. V takomto predvianočnom období tam na nás čakal vyzdobený stromček a sladké perníčky. Izby boli priestranné s pohodlnými posteľami. Tichá lokalita a všade blízko (Chopok, Srdiečko, Tále...). V blízkosti úžasná pekáreň Stará Zvonica kde robia výborný chlebík, koláče a iné...

Ingrid from Slovakia
Krásne štýlové a priestranné ubytovanie so všetkým, čo potrebujete. Cela drevenička je vybavená s citom pre detail. Nájdete tam všetko, čo potrebujete na dovolenkový výlet. Je možné využiť úžasnú miestnosť, s grilom, či uvariť v kotline guláš. Majiteľka je veľmi milá a má naozaj rýchle odpovede na vaše požiadavky / otázky. Bolo to jedno z našich...
