Hotel Budweis

he hotel is right on the edge of the old town, very accessible to the old town, but not to much else. It's a 20 minute walk from the train station, which was a bit much with suitcases over cobbled streets. I had a corner room on the thrid floor, very spacious, with closets, safe, kettle, desk and so on. The staff were very helpful. Breakfast was good. The bathroom is nice and large, but the shower is in a very high bathtub which is actually not easy to get into, and I'm not a short person. The shower itself is hand-held, meaning that i had to hold it in my hand while showering, and while there was plenty of hot water, I could never get the temperature right. Also, I was there in the winter. The temperature in the room was just a bit on the cool side, and the thermostat seems to be pre-set. Not cold enough that I complained about it.

This is the second time I stayed here. The first time was great, this was not a stay that mirrored the first. The room was not that clean, I could see dust on the curtains. The maid staff left cleaning products in my room and the vacuum cleaner was in the hall for 2 days. The breakfast service is just okay and I did not find staff friendly, but this might be due to a language barrier as I am English speaking. The most disappointing occurrence was theft of a cashmere sweater. It was in my room waiting to be packed , when I left for dinner. When I was gathering my things the next morning I realized it was missing. This was relayed to the front desk and I have heard nothing since. I was unable to connect to the WiFi in my room for the entire stay, the signal was too weak. My daughter lives in Ceske Budejovice , and it is a lovely town. I felt that the hotel might be struggling based on what I saw and that an item was stolen with no apologies from management.

Hotel di qualità molto buona. Stanze ampie, fresche, ben arredate. Colazione abbondante ma forse un po' sotto le aspettative. Non c'è molto spazio per il parcheggio, ma lo staff è di aiuto per risolvere questo problema. Architettura esterna ed interna davvero molto bella.
