Detailed Reviews
Really friendly and helpful staff, a clean hotel room with a nice minimalist decoration style. The team did everything I asked of them, they were so helpful.
The only negative thing for me was the food, which I did not find particularly enjoyable, but it also was not bad in any way, but I'd eat out in Martin next time where there are many good options.

Recently, I had the opportunity to visit hotel Bystricka. I'd describe my stay there overall as comfy. Every part of the building was satisfyingly clean. The receptionist Jan Bugala gave us not only all the information needed, but even didn't fail to satisfy some of our strange wishes. He demonstrated extraordinary patience :)
P.S. Sitting in front of the fish tank was such a pleasure.

We were visiting the folk museum (skansen) in Martin but chose to stay in Bystricka, just a short distance from Martin itself, which was not an attractive city. We loved the Hotel Bystricka. It is situated in a quiet village but on its main road so easy to find. The accommodations were very comfortable; the meals at the Pate Restaurant were surprisingly good. (Everything except wine by the glass; do order a bottle unless you like thin wine.) The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. Massage was available at a reasonable price. The only discordant note was that music played in the courtyard until 10:00 pm at night. It is such a classy hotel that it seemed strange to have loud music ever present just outside our window.
There is a nice seating area and patio dining area in the courtyard. We had lunch there and enjoyed the outdoors. Also, for walkers, it's easy to walk in the village. And, if you go up to Lipsky, the next village, there are marked trails on the road to the mountains. We walked up to the village (25 minutes), but there was a trail that could go 40 minutes or a couple of hours at the top of the road. We also walked along the field in back of the hotel. It's nice to stretch one's legs after driving. There is a small grocery store a couple of blocks from the hotel. The folk museum is well worth a visit. It's nestled in a forest at the edge of Martin.

We stayed at this hotel because I had a business meeting nearby. It was recommended by the meeting organizers. There are not many choices in the area.
First a few ok things. The room and bathroom were both large. It had been remodeled in the past few years so it was in good condition. The bed was ok. The restaurant overall was OK. The staff tried to be helpful.
Now to the other stuff.
I am older and my mobility is less than optimal, though I'm not really impaired. I was dismayed to find there was no elevator! I didn't think to check - I learned a lesson there. Like the other hotels I've stayed at in Slovakia, it had a big, deep bathtub with a shower wand. And this one didn't even have a grab bar. The bed was a low platform bed, so getting up from it was another challenge.
There were also some service challenges. One of the lamps was not plugged in. The little frig was not plugged in and the cord was behind a very heavy chest of drawers. We had to get the front desk to send someone to fish out the cord.
Nine of us had dinner there one night. Overall, the food was good and plentiful, but not something you would drive far for. They forgot to put in the order for two of us and we had to ask again and then wait quite a while.
Special mention goes to the "orange juice" at breakfast, which resembled orange juice in that it was indeed orange. Otherwise, there was no similarity to real orange juice. It resembled watered-down kool-aid.
Overall, I think the picture I posted of the wilted roses at our table the first day sums up the visit rather well.

Dear AoifeCuRua, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We appreciate your detailed review and would like to express our sincere apologies for the inconveniences you experienced during your stay. We are pleased to hear that you found the room and bathroom spacious, and that our recent remodeling efforts were noticeable. Your positive comments about the restaurant and the efforts of our staff are also appreciated. However, we regret to learn about the challenges you faced due to the absence of an elevator and the accessibility issues in your room. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the low platform bed and the lack of a grab bar in the bathroom. We do have a room that is suitable for guests with less than optimal mobility, however it was occupied during your stay. Your feedback is crucial, and we will certainly take it into consideration as we continuously work to improve our facilities. Regarding the service challenges you encountered, we apologize for the oversight with the unplugged lamp and fridge. We will address these issues with our housekeeping team to prevent such occurrences in the future. Additionally, we deeply regret the delayed service during dinner and the oversight with your order. Your comments regarding the breakfast orange juice have also been noted, and we will ensure to enhance the quality of our offerings. We understand that your overall experience did not meet your expectations, and we sincerely apologize for any disappointment caused, particularly with the wilted roses at your table. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we will use it to implement necessary improvements. If your travels bring you back to the area, we would appreciate the opportunity to make amends and provide you with a more enjoyable experience. Thank you once again for sharing your thoughts, and we hope to welcome you back in the future. Best regards, Hotel Bystrička*** Team.

Great location while visiting city of Martin. Good food, quiet neighborhood, friendly staff except last night stay.
Room 203 has a problem with the bathroom faucet. The manual switch from faucet to hand shower is stuck and nearly impossible to operate. Complained to the front desk, upon check out and expected some kind of break or discount for the room price but that was declined. One would expect the hotel to compensate guests for this type of malfunction.

If you consider night in this simple hotel, you better be sure you are thin. In my room I had two beds, each only 50 cm wide. One bad move and you sleep on the floor. Other than that, the stay was pleasant thanks to courteous staff and nice restaurant.

Generally the hotel is good, The room was good only the beds could be more comfortable but it was not horrible and may be more programs in TV would be nice. Wifi in the room was working good in the evening, but in the morning I could not connect my smart phone. The staff in reception and restaurant were OK. This hotel is located outside the city of Martin beside the hotel there is no entertainment in this area. The restaurant was very good I took there my dinner and breakfast and everything was excellent.
The price of the room was good.

This hotel is simply extraordinary! The food is amazing and the chef would deserve a few Michelin stars himself. The service is absolutely phenomenal, this hotel offers sabrage and some foods are actually made in front of you on a portable grill with the waiter serving them in white gloves. The facilities would deserve a 5* rating, the hotel has its own spa and wellness facilities with more than reasonable prices.
We stayed in the presidential suite and could not complain. The only downfall is the location which is a bit away from the city centre and you would need a taxi or a car to get around. On another hand, it is in a tranquil village so if you are seeking a good night's sleep, this is the place to go. Would definitely recommend for functions and/or weddings, the facilities are just superb.
The pricing of the rooms, however, would indicate you are somewhere at the Mediterrean sea and not int he middle of Slovakia's countryside.
