Autentikus múltidéző nyugalom, a tihanyi belső tó szomszédságában.
Pros:

A szállás rendkívül nyugodt helyen található, a tihanyi belső tó közelében. A szállástól néhány perc sétára szinte az összes nevezetesség elérhető. Autentikus berendezés, kitűnő reggeli, és rendkívül barátságos személyzet. Külön kiemelném a recepciós személyzet kedvességét, és segítőkészségét. Az elhelyezkedés és a hotel is maximálisan megfelelő volt.

Cons:

Ilyen nem volt.

מקום מקסים , מלון מיוחד, ארוחת בוקר טובה
Pros:

מיקום קסום , חדרים מאוד נעימים ומרווחים , נקי.

Cons:

אין וילונות !! כל מי שעובר יכול בערב לראות פנימה לחדר, היותר בעייתי היה במקלחת - שם לא היתה בכלל פרטיות ( אבל מגבת על החלון סגרה פינה)

Pros:

Odwiedziłam ten obiekt po raz drugi,za pierwszym razem,kilka lat temu, byłam oczarowana,tym razem rozczarowana.Czas się tu zatrzymał i to dosłownie .Co prawda tym razem wynajęłam pokój po schodach,więc był mały i pełen skosów z malutkim okienkiem,był też czajnik elektryczny,ale nie było żadnego kubeczka,,dobrze że łóżko było wygodne.Plusem było dobre śniadanie i bardzo miła pani w recepcji.

Cons:

Parking za 1 noc 10 euro i opłata za małego pieska 25 euro !!!

Ein empfehlenswertes Erlebnis
Pros:

Außergewöhnliches Ambiente. Viel Platz im Zimmer und im Frühstücksbereich. Sehr gutes Frühstücksbuffet. Großzügiger und gepflegter Außenbereich.

Cons:

Die Lage hinter dem Berg bedingt, dass die Ortsmitte etwas mühselig zu erklettern ist, oder das Auto muss her.

Ciekawe miejsce na pobyt i bardzo smaczne śniadanie.
Pros:

Bardzo ciekawe, historyczne miejsce na pobyt. Bardzo dobre śniadanie.

Cons:

Pokój bardzo duży i wygodny. Był ekspres do kawy, czajnik, herbata i korkociąg ale brakowało kubków i kieliszków. Więc nie można było sobie nawet zrobić herbaty.

Disappointing
Pros:

The hotel’s unique look was great, typical Hungarian style. I liked the furniture and renovated bathroom. Location is great, close to everything, however Tihany is quite small.

Cons:

I felt the price was too high for what you get.

The breakfast is quite basic, and having a proper, good-quality coffee would really improve the experience. The capsule coffee machines are not particularly environmentally friendly, and the coffee itself wasn’t very good. A simple drip coffee machine would be a much better alternative.

Unfortunately, the rooms have very little soundproofing, so you can hear a lot from the hallways and neighbouring rooms. This made it difficult to properly relax and rest, especially when there were children running up and down the hallway.

The TV in the room was also very small. Parking is expensive, and it feels like there are no real alternatives, so you essentially have to pay the fee. Some curtains or another form of window covering would also be nice.

The coffee machine in our room didn’t work either.

Overall, there are several small things that could be improved, and considering the price, I expected a higher level of comfort and amenities.
