Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Absolutely luxurious hotel!! Ideal for a family with small children. The children's corner is a large room full of toys, slides, etc. and is right next to the dining room/restaurant. Parents can thus enjoy dinner while the children play in the corner. The exit from the corner is only through the restaurant, so children will not leave unnoticed. Meals in the restaurant also have an adapted children's menu, the prices are low and the quality is high, regardless of the portion size, which is sufficient even for the moderately hungry. an adult. Standard portions are large. The hotel provides a baby travel cot, a step to the sink, a potty, etc. It will make packing, which is difficult with children anyway 😅, there is also a beautiful modern wellness area with a smaller warm pool for the little ones and a bigger one for swimming. The hotel is very clean and modern. Since we were now and our stay was rained out, we didn't leave it and we didn't have to due to its equipment. We had half board, breakfast and lunch are buffet style. The food was different every day and very good. There was always something for the kids. The service during the meal was also great, nice and communicative, especially the older blonde lady :) who took care of our family most of the time. The lady at the reception was nice, smiling and helpful, nothing was a problem, she helped us with everything, whether it was a request for a kettle in the room or buying a ski pass. I recommend this hotel to all families with children and we will definitely come again. 🔝🌸

This hotel is a great surprise for me. I did not except such complex hotel in my country in this price range.
We travelled as a family 2+3 for a weekend stay. The nature in Donovaly,Slovakia is great, but it is very hard to find a hotel that doesn´t ruin the whole holiday experience.
But this hotel makes it even better. It is rather small, maybe 50 rooms or so. Rooms are a bit small, but the hotel makes it up by offering SO MANY activities.
As the name suggests, the main attracions are he many sports you can enjoy - of course skiing, snowboarding in winter, but also hiking, mountianbiking, tennis, basketball, football, and also paraglinding from the near hill.
The restaurant in hotel is great, quality cuisine. They also have a wine room, bar for adults and great limonades for kids.
Room was very clean, with new furniture.
In the evening you can enjoy a quiet stay in the hotels garden.
But the best experience is the spacious wellness area. Saunas, massages, pools, kid´s pool, and a tepidarium...I wish we had more time to enjoy this place.
For kids there are attractions in the garden, some animals, jumpcastle, swings...
I strongly recommend this hotel for your stay in Donovaly. My family sure will return here.

We've stayed 4 night at apartment of Hotel Sport. Unfortunately, these were in separate building which was kind of challange having two small kids. Hotel is located close to skii centrum, but we still used car, walking is about 15 minutes. Apartment was huge and well furbished. There were few issues - very slow internet connection, hot water not working in showers by the pool, etc. but overall experience was very good. Food quality was excellent, for both breakfast and dinner.

First of all I must say - I was very enthusiastic about this hotel but unfortunately from the beginning we (my husband I and two kids) felt uncomfortable and unwanted in this hotel.
We had a problem with a door (it looked like someone tried to break in) in our room and I reported it immediately to the receptions. They tried to repair it for two days (???) but without success. On the day of arrival we came on dinner and all the baby chairs (exactly only two of them) were occupied so we had had to cope with our 2 year old twins. Dinner was mission impossible. On the next morning we arrived on breakfast at 8.30 (starts at 8) and yogurt was gone. When I asked the waiter can we have some yogurt for the kids, first he said they don't have it anymore. When I asked how this is possible since it was open only half an hour ago - he respond in very rude way "What would you like, everything?" We almost pack our things and went away. After that I wanted to speak only to the manager of the hotel and told her about the broken door, impolite staff, not enough baby chairs in a hotel full of kids and hotel that suppose to be kids friendly hotel... She apologies to me and the next day new baby chairs arrived and there was enough yogurt, but the damage was done. I felt very bad and ashamed because I traveled more than 500 km to show my family beautiful Slovakia and beautiful Slovak people and got a cold shower.
Aside from that, there are no bathrobe so you have to go in you swimming suit from room to the pool and the staff said "it is normal", there were no clean towels at the entrance to the pool so I had to go to the reception and ask them to bring me one, soap was never ever refiled, no staff in the saouna area and guest walk in their swimming suits, internet in rooms was down for two days, kids playroom was very dirty, not cleaned once during our 3 night stay, our bathroom had traces of mold, etc
Definitely will not return there ever, although hotel has a great potential, nice outside kids playground and it is situated in one of the nicest parts of Slovakia.

Cuisine: wonderfull menu a la carte. Tried some pieces and it was dellicious and food styling was just beautiful.
Breakfast and dinner served as buffet. Not very wide selection, but everthig served is very tasty and fresh.

In addition, you can ask indian chef to prepare you special herbal tea if you feel cold. :)

Spa: not the biggest one, but very modern, clean and comfortable

Rooms: modern and clean. First night it was bit cold, but after we asked staff to fix it, everything was great.

Overal: great hotel to spend time with your partner or family. Very kind and supportive staff in beautiful area of Donovaly.

A good value for your money. We rented a double storey apartment with a small kitchennette. The rooms weren't exactly flash, but very clean, tidy and comfortable. Restaurant served beautiful meals for dinner, breakfast were standard. However, on our second day we got there half way through the breakfast and most of the food was gone and no new food was served. Therefore we were left with mostly bread and a selection of salami.
Internet was unstable and slow.
Overall, we'll probably stay again, as it is a walking distance from the fairy tale village Habakuky and has beautiful views of the slopes. Might be a bit hard walking there in winter, but it's in the central part of Donovaly which is good.
Staff were friendly and helpful.

I stayed in this hotel with my husband for 4 days and I recommend this hotel to everyone. It is placed in the beautiful area, the room, the restaurant, swimming pool, jacuzzi and everything is beautiful. The food was amazing as well as the hotel staff. The only minus is that our towels have never been changed and the sope has never been refilled. I would like to come back one day :-)

We were there 2 weeks a go with 2 children (8 & 6) during winter school holidays and we ' ve choosen this hotel because of the short distance to the skiing area, its about 300 meters from hotel so in walking distance.
The hotel is renovated but some rooms are really small (we have 2 rooms Nr. 104 & 109... and 104 was small)
A bad surprise for me was (because this is a hotel specialized for winter holidays) that there is no possibility to dry your clotes in the rooms or in the hotel (after all day skiing) there is only floor heating available in the rooms with no chance to dry your wet clotes (childrens jacket, trousers, gloves etc) :(
In hotel is also a elipse shaped pool but the water was could on the first touch (according to writen information it should be 28 Celsius degrees but it felt like 24-25)
We' ve ordered a halfboard and food was very well, also for the children and also the staff at the hotel was very pleasant and helping.
The skiing possibilities for children in closest distance were perfect and we' ve enjoyed it a lot but with drying the clotes in the afternoon :( I was really dissapointed.
Therefore an average rating is only ***
