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.

Finally I found 4*Hotel in Slovakia, which deserves all stars. I was on the business trip we had a professional welcome from front desk, helpful and nice receptionists, an excellent hotel service, quality and delicious dinner and breakfast from talented chef Andrej and his team. I didn't expect that everything would be so perfect from the first time I entered the hotel lobby to the time I left the large parking lot. Special thanks to the hotel manager Veronika who took care of everything with her professionalism and willingness. Highly recommended.

Hotel is in an amazing area of ​​Donovaly. A beautiful view and clean air, a complete celebration of nature. Full of attractions in the area and at the same time is in a quiet and perfect place. Lots of hiking and biking trails are in the area. Nice and helpful staff. Hotel offers all kinds of spa activities. A lot of parking in the site.

Disliked · It is not possible to fix the shower head in the shower and it is required to hold it by hand. Very uncomfortable. In addition, the method of opening and closing the doors of the paddle balconies is appalling. Very very not rich and modest breakfast for a 4 star hotel. There is not even a coffee machine at breakfast.

Very nice very kind staff! The receptionist even after a long night shifs was so nice and smiling!
The room was nice and clean, with a small balcony.
Breakfast was okay, personally i missed the bacon:) but there were other ham options.
I didn’t see alternative milk (laktose free,rise) but there was gluten free option in the pastries.

Fantastic surroundings, marvellous rooms, lobby, location etc etc... But come on... The service crap, the wellness fully booked all the time, massage, forget about it, the room where you can enjoy a cigar or a glass of rum, fully booked, and the list goes on and on. In a hotel with 300 rooms, wellness hotel, there are two small saunas available, no pool, and you have to pay extra for all these services. For the children they have prepared a playground consisting of two sofas in the lobby with some small toys. The hotel is fantastic, but yet again the people do not know what their customers need. Shape up! And get some qualified staff!

Have stayed twice now for work events.

Firstly, the hotel is quite new, but alreay there is some wear in the rooms with slightly chipping paint etc. Enoough parking and check in was quick.

Rooms are clean but found them to be really hot with no way of moderating the temperature. Had to open the window for a few minutes during the evening and this wa sthe middle of Winter. Should really be sorted out.

Had dinner and breakfast in the restaurant. Food was quite good and wine by the glass (Riesling) was tasty and good value. Breakfast had more choice than expected with scrambled and fried eggs, numerouse meats and plenty of cold food options.

Would use again for work.

Overall a good hotel in Donovaly. Few downsides : it's cold in the bar, restaurant, lobby, corridors, ellevator; food can be much better, since the assortment during breakfast and dinner is very narrow; check carefully your bill at check out, they strangely provide limitedbtransparancy on what's in... The inside kids playground is good, tha spa as well, garage is very convenient(10eur/night).

We found this hotel on line and with not much reviews or information about it we decided to give it a go and booked for a weekend trip in january 2017. The place - Donovaly - is beautiful and charming. The hotel it's nice but very overpriced: Definitely NOT the kind of service you would expect from a 4 STARS place. You'll be better off staying in another place for 50% the price.

Rooms: really good, very clean and comfortable but there's no thermostat! The hotel decides your room temperature, you can't change! Ah, and there's no room service.

Restaurant / Bar: We haven't had the chance to see it and try because there was a weeding on SATURDAY so they CLOSED the restaurant, bar and half of the BREAKFAST AREA for the ENTIRE WEEKEND so they could decorate the place for the party. Do you remember when I said that there's NO ROOM SERVICE?
All guests were squeezed in a very tiny room for breakfast and a massive queue was formed outside with those trying to get in - at 9AM.
The breakfast was very poor and there wasn't even a toaster. To have bread, you have to be there when the breakfast is served otherwise better go to the supermarket, buy your breakfast and eat it in your room. On top of that, every morning we had to ask then to refill the milk jars because was empty.

Parking space: is really small. Can take probably 25-30 cars - not at all compatible with the hotel size.
And there's more: because one of their main things is weeding events (as you can see on their website), you can imagine how pleasant is to arrive at your hotel on the evening and find out that the entire ground floor / hotel lobby is a big party and you no other thing to do than go to your room and watch TV.

Conclusion: if you wanna pay double and get 1/4 of what a 4 stars hotel is, this is the place fr you!

Thank you for your review. In the date 21.1.2017 we organised official Donovaly Ball, which is night full of entertainment and nobleness. Our reception informed every guest about this event and also offered discount for entry. We hope next time you would join us and enjoy whole stay. We are looking for your next visit.

Having spend there only one night, I cannot judge much, but :
- the rooms are nice and spacious, maybe a bit dated
- food was ok
- generally quiet.

I just can't overcome the fact that the hotel seems completely out of place. It's too big, a huge eyesore and generally out of place for where it is. The feeling just wasn't right.

"Definitely ask for room on east side for views of mountains, instead of west side (which overlooks parking lot)."
