Penzion Jelen — Hotel in okres Znojmo

If you wish to try for yourself what it could have been living in a well-to-do home in Moravia (or anywhere in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy) in the early 20th Century, then book an apartment here. The name (the family name of the once owners, meaning 'deer' in Czech, but meaning 'present' as in time for us, Hungarians) is an exceptional lodging in my experience. The once grand villa standing very close to the center of this lovely small town has smaller and larger apartments furnished with a blend of comfortable contemporary and period furniture.

This is the best place to stay in Vranov nad Dyji by far. It is a beautifully and tastefully renovated villa from the 1920's.||We have booked an apartment on the 2nd floor with castle view & we were more than pleasantly surprised. The rooms are spacious, clean with original features. We have had a very good selection of teas and coffee in the kitchen.Some rooms have got balcony as well. There is a large garden with sitting areas, where you can enjoy nice glass of wine you just bought from some local vine maker.||The breakfast is FABULOUS, with an excellent choice of cold meat, cheeses, home made! bread and sweets or their home made jams are to die for.||This place is ideal for couples.

It was really difficult to leave, but we will be back! No...
