Hotel Leopold I

This hotel is very good and the location is very strategic, especially with the staff being quite friendly, making me happy to stay here

酒店有點老舊，服務人員態度一般。自助早餐超讚，停車就在門口。

Wow! What an experience. It's truly unreal to stay in this baroque fortress building. The hotel building itself was formerly a military building but has been a hotel for at least 70 years. The hotel upgraded us to one of the fancier rooms which was so amazing. The antique looking furniture in an ancient building just added to the ambiance. I'd seen some complaints about the fancy rooms having a Jacuzzi instead of a shower - but that's not accurate. The shower is MADE my jacuzzi - its a brand, not a hot tub! The bathroom was just fine! In fact, the water pressure in the shower was amazing. The room overlooked the river which was just so nice. The bed was nice and comfortable and we made good use of the sitting area of the room to just sort of enjoy the whole experience. The staff was really nice and helpful. Every single staff member I met was kind and wanted to make our stay as good as can be. The fitness center was honestly only OK. There is a treadmill, a multi-gym, some weights, and a bike but the bike wasn't working. We used the sauna but the jacuzzi tun wasn't running. (It's the off-season - most likely.) If we had one complaint is that there are three night clubs around the hotel and the music went really late. (I just turned on some white-noise and went back to sleep.) The breakfast was also excellent! And eating it in that restaurant environment just added to how good the experience was. Overall, the stay was excellent.

No, this hotel was not good. I made reservations online. The reservation process was easy and straight forward. I reserved one of the classical suites located in the first floor. These are the most expensive rooms. The rooms are dated. The bathroom is not good. The sink does not have enough space to place the essentials. The most expensive rooms do not have showers; they have a jacuzzi instead of a shower. Honestly, it is difficult to take the morning bath in a jacuzzi. You don't feel clean. There are no curtains or glass windows. It becomes messy with water. The essentials provided by the hotel are not good quality. The shampoo and the bar soaps are not good. Once the jacuzzi is hot, it is very difficult to stop the water from running as the faucet that controls the hot water gets stocked. The rooms are very noisy at night. The jacuzzi cleans itself over night and the noise is terrible. You have to disconnect the jacuzzi. If the night is cold, you need to turn the heater on and the heater is noisy as well. The daytime front desk staff is nice and they speak very good English. At night, they have some senior interns who don't speak English and who are not nice; they don't want to help. Breakfast is mediocre. Coffee is terrible. There is no fruit. Breakfast menu offers some greasy eggs and sausages. The morning waiter is nice. Room service and menu is bad. When you order meals, you have to remind them to bring silverware as well. Carpet is old. Furniture is old. The rooms are cramped. Bed mattress is ok. It is an old hotel. The good features are: 1. Parking is spacious and free. 2. There are nice views of the Danube river. 3. The hotel is located in the Petrovaradin fortress which is one of the most interesting sites in Novi Sad. It is not far from Novi Sad downtown (20 minutes walking distance). 4. The price is high for the quality it offers; however, when compared with similar hotels in other parts of the world or even in Serbia, the hotel is not too expensive. 5. It is not massive. It does not feel crowded. I recommend exploring some of the new and modern hotels in Novi Sad. Their prices are similar, they have showers, rooms are more spacious, quiet, and modern.

I had been looking forward to staying at the Hotel Leopold for some time and I was not disappointed. To actually stay within the fortress was quite special, especially after walking up the steps from the town and through the tunnel to the entrance gates. Reception couldn’t have been more hospitable, offering complimentary cakes and rakija as I checked in. The room was spacious although next time I may well upgrade to a superior one on the floor below. The hotel itself was exquisite in design, furnished extremely tastefully and oozing class. As the hotel was very quiet, breakfast was ordered directly from the menu which was in addition to a continental offering on the sideboard. Supported by excellent service from a remarkable waiter, it was a memorable start to the day. Visiting in mid January, the views from the bedroom looking over the Danube were spectacular. It proved to be a perfect base for 2 nights in Novi Sad and ultra convenient for exploring the museums of the fortress.

The hotel is old and historic with amazing views. The journey up to the hotel is an interesting cobble stone road and walk way. You are me by a hotel with stunning views of the Danube. The staff are very friendly and helpful with a good level of English. The rooms are a little dated in the style but not in quality. You are a quick walk to restaurants and the local attractions. Well worth a visit.
