We wanted to come back to Zakopane with our children, having visited many times when we were younger. The town has gone downhill a long way, which was very disappointing, but the mountains are still as beautiful and this Pension / guest house is a great base for visiting them. Right from the start, the reception team has been accommodating, friendly and welcoming. It is lovely inside. Very nicely renovated with blonde wood everywhere, and wooden everything! The lamp shades especially are carved with beautiful patterns. There is always a very warm welcome. There's a small bar serving everything you need, with comfy sofas and a log fire when it's cold. The rooms are nicely laid out, especially ours which is a family room, with a wall between the kids beds and ours meaning we're close but not too. The en-suite bathroom is new, clean and nicely decorated. In fact, the whole room is nicely decorated, with lights hidden behind carved wooden planks decorating the high walls, a table and stools and lots of framed prints of the mountains. My youngest was really taken with the deep red velvet curtains and throws, and all are decorated with the house's pattern. Essentially, this is a delightful guest house to stay in :-) What makes it really special, however, is the food. It's amazing. Really, really good Polish food cooked very well and served with such friendliness. My eldest is mostly vegetarian and the cook was extremely accommodating to a last minute change and offered different choices until she got the biggest beaming smile. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, but she really stands out. Dinners are far superior to those available in the town and the breakfasts will keep you going until dinner time comes back round. I recommend you book dinner here rather than eat out, and at c. 20 zloty each for three amazing courses it is extraordinary good value too. You will need to go for some properly long walks in the meantime to burn it all off... Not a problem in Zakopane, fortunately. The only thing that might count either for or against this pension is that it's about 25 minutes walk from the town. Personally, I prefer to book a cab to a good place to start walking, and count the cost of the taxi (25 zloty to town, 40 to Kuznice, ymmv) as part of the accommodation. One visit to town was enough. One visit here isn't. …
