Horizont Resort

Good base in the Tatra mountains We enjoyed a wonderful 2 night stay at the hotel, full of comfort, good food and relaxation. The hotel is located at the foothills of the Tatras mountains, fantastic location for hiking and enjoying the beautiful scenery. You can walk to the nearby town of Tatranska Lomnica through the forest in about 20-30 minutes. The Tatra electric railway (TEŽ) station Stara Lesna is a 16 minute walk from the hotel and you can access all the stops along the Skalnate Pleso lift stations for just €4 for a 24 hour pass. Rooms are small, but comfortable, we had a beautiful view of the mountains (ask for a Mountain View on check-in) Nice bathrooms and the spa is definitely the highlight along with the VIP Sky lounge although this is an extra fee. The wellness opening hours worked for us as we were out all day then could enjoy the spa in the evening but in the summer you may struggle to use the facilities. Onto a very big positive.....we enjoyed the buffet-style breakfast and dinners and the quality of the food was excellent. Some great choices and food selection for people with dietary requirements. Staff were all so nice and helpful. Overall a great hotel, however small details that could make it better: such as internet availability. The wifi always disconnects and you needed to keep opening a browser and log in again and again. The coffee at breakfast could be a lot better, maybe some hot milk could be available for the machine use. Also opening hours of wellness centre could be better as you don't have much time to use it if you're on trip during the day, using the pool first thing would be great and longer onto the evening. We loved it :) thank you x

I have slept there with my family for 3 nights in double room with No. 314. The room is maximally for 4 people. Two persons may sleep on a couch in the room on the second floor (entrance to the room). Other two people may sleep on the first floor in a bed, which is tight and small even for two persons. Both premises of the rooms are also very small when you compare it with standard rooms in other hotels. Air in the upper room is relatively breatheable but in the lower room an air is very badly breatheable. In case you think that you will turn on aircondition you are wrong because there is not aircondition. By that reason you will be certainly not happy in summer time. In case you will choose for a fresh air and you will open a balcony door (only one source of day light) so you will change your mind after a while because a window (on upper floor) and balcony door (on lower floor) do not have any net against insects. After a while you have full room of various local insects and you will decide to sleep in hot and stinky (also from bathroom) lower floor room. In case you have a baby stroller with you so it is a problem because of the room`s proportions. Because of that my stroller was at my car and other guests had there strollers outside at the terrace accessible from first floor. For me this hotel was special because I have never seen a 4star hotel without a room service. This was my first time in my life. They did not make my bed during the whole stay there and did not clean my only one and very small trash bin during the whole stay there. At the hotel you may see wide range of damaged porcelain at room and at restaurant premises. My wife drank at room on first day a coffee and we had that cup untouched until the last day there. We did not have any slippers at the room for the whole stay. The room with No. 314 has the wall with the hotel kitchen and by that reason you can smell everything what they cook at the room. In the night from Friday to Saturday probably in the kitchen there was a huge local staff party from 02:00 AM until 06:00 AM which was really noisy. I call at 03:00 AM reception but probably by that reason they did not find the source of music and loud noises of drunk staff. Wifi at the hotel is terrible, very slow and unstable. The food was tasty but they have really small range of meals to choose when you compare it with other hotels. Overally I evaluate the hotel as too much expensive (like 5stars hotel) with services between 2 and 3stars hotel. This was my first and last stay at the hotel. And I almost forgot that somebody was smoking cigarettes at our terrace when we were at local trip.

The hotel is rather far from nearest town with not much to do in the evenings. Staff was not very friendly, rather strict to the point, not all speak English well enough to serve. Room was so OUTDATED, small, carpets need to be replaces no faciliteis in the room- really disappointing comparing to the hotel lobby and shared areas. Pool area was really good and they also have sauna. Prices are rather high for the dull room you get. Dinner was ok, not more but it is better that you reserve a half board since you have no restaurans around and the roads are not the best to drive at night. Overall experience- you better choose a different one.
