Hotels Near Mestské múzeum Štúrovo in Sturovo

We stayed at the hotel for 5 days, booking a ”Castle holiday” offer on their website. First impression upon arrival was great - the whole area and park surrounding the Castle was amazing, as were the interior spaces. After entering the Castle itself though, we were quite surprised by a small, unrepresentative reception hidden behind the corner. The room was nice at first sight, although we noticed immediately that it was truly hot in there (30 degrees Celsius) and there was no AC (in a Deluxe room!!!). After the first night, we requested switching rooms for another one with an AC - we were lucky, as they had one available. With the ”Castle holiday” offer came buffet breakfast and 3-course dinner/buffet dinner. Breakfast was nice with a wide selection. Dinner however was a bit disappointing - we did expect more from a Chateau hotel, which offers also Gourmet packages and tastings. The food felt a bit dull and the portions were ridiculously big, given there were three courses served in a row. I have to highlight the desserts though - those were truly AMAZING every evening. The pool area was nice looking too, although did provide only roughly 20 sunbeds (the capacity of the hotel is 44 rooms!!!). On top of that, many families with small children made it impossible to relax in the pool area as advertised by the hotel - there was NOTHING RELAXING about that. One thing I have to mention, as we did travel here during the Covid-19 pandemic times: everywhere in the hotel, there were signs requesting people to wear a face covering when inside, but we were the only ones (plus the stuff) wearing it. I didn't see once that someone from stuff would remind the guests of this, which is a huge failure on their side. Another thing bothering us during the whole stay was smoking allowed on the terraces during dinner, everywhere in the park and around the doors, including pool area. This forced us to stay inside for each dinner, as there were always people smoking on the terrace. Recommendation for the hotel: - separating areas for families with children, so that people seeking relaxation and quiet can truly get it - being more considerate to non-smoking population - being more conscious about the rules set during these days

The room is quite large and equipped with a kitchen, but the facilities are relatively old. The hotel is suitable for local people to come on vacation. There is a swimming pool, a large dining area, and a wide variety of breakfasts.

We spent 6 nights here. There were positive and negative experiences too. About the hotel and the room: The first surprise is the staircase: you can drag the package up there but you have to pick it up from there by hand. There is an elevator, but only from the top of the stairs, from the level of the reception. If you can't afford to carry your suitcases in your hand, don't choose this hotel! The receptionist was nice, she told us everything. We spent a lot of time in many hotel rooms but this was the narrowest one. Entering the room we were just spinning: where to put the baggages? There is room for only one suitcase - but in a double-bed room used to be two persons... this suitcase holder was also covered with the table. We regularly found ants in the room and in the bathroom, which is perhaps understandable on the edge of the forest, but one is still reluctant to share their abode with them. The TV is ridiculously small, although we weren’t very interested in that. The yellow blackout curtain on the east façade is extremely dysfunctional. It is already so clear at dawn that you cannot sleep by turning towards the window! There is only one hanger in the bathroom, and there is no space for a soap dispenser in the shower. The building is full of cameras, but none got into the parking lot next to the road. The toilet paper was not replaced automatically, though we received it on request. If you want to go hiking, be close to nature, this accommodation is a good choice. Restaurant: Breakfast is from 8 to 10 a.m. It happened three times that at 9 o'clock the kettle wasn't even plugged in, so the water was cold and stayed in it from yesterday. Ants were also on the breakfast buffet. I also found two dirty mugs in a row. When the mugs ran out, I had to tell them to bring them out. Every breakfast is exactly the same, no variety. After a few days, it's pretty boring. There is no drink list for dinner: order so you don’t know what to choose and how much it costs. All the staff are kind, we have not encountered any problems in this area. Overall, despite the annoying problems above, we had a good time. Most of the problems listed could be fixed with little effort, raising the level of the site a lot. For some problems that require more investment, the owner should change in the longer term (room size, lack of elevator)
