There are many fine places to stay in Zakopane but the Giewont is certainly not one of them. As soon as we had checked in we noticed that the whole hotel including our room stinks from cigarette smoke although not as much in the reception and the restaurant. The room itself was rather dirty and the towels smelled as if... more

A great hotel if you are planning on partying all night and not going anywhere near your hotel room. Not great if you want to use your hotel room for something weird such as sleeping. A booming disco went on just outside the window until about 4.30am. The highlights of the night's music was "2 Unlimited - Theres no limits"... more

We are a family from South Africa and stayed at the Orbis Giewont in Jan 2008 with our children and their spouses aged between 21 - 28yrs.

The rooms were very noisy 24 hours a day (located right in the middle of the main Zakopane thoroughfare, directly above KFC and Pizza Hut.) My room was pretty grotty... more

Good restaurant albeit with a limited menu, but very pleasant surroundings and excellent staff. Fly in the ointment was attitude of some of the reception staff. One in particular, who appeared to be a fairly... more

Stayed here for one night in a standard plus room. Very spacious and mostly clean (#211), carpet needs to be replaced. Staff was very friendly. A garage box for your car can be organised at the reception - order in advance, the hotel does not offer any parking. We had a very good few right down to the famous Krupowki... more
