We travelled recently to Eger to spend a long weekend there. Being there for 2 nights with full board (Dinner on arrival day, Brakefast, lunch and dinner on Saturday, Breakfast on departure day) all in all we were able to collect very positive impressions. ||||The City is a nice place to be, even if its not recommandable to plan a stay for longer than 1 day. This one day is more than enough to cover everything interesting offered in Eger. We enjoyed the nice center of the city as well as a walk to the castle. The turkish bath is very authentic and in very good condition. We enjoyed very nice hours there. ||||About the Hotel we have very mixed feelings. Although the family running the Hotel seems to be nice and endouvered to deliver a good service, at many points we felt that the service is not professional. ||||- Located at Dobo I. Ter Offi Haz is very close to the Castle and the Center of the City. One of the best locations in Eger. (Turkish Bath is 10min by feet, Big city garden is 10min by feet, Castle is 5min by feet, etc.)||||- The room was nicely decorated. From the window we could see Dobo Istvan Ter. The bed was very soft (too soft) and contained 2 mattresses. The mattresses were sliding away from each other so that very sood a gap was built between the two sides of the bed.||||- At least 2 plugs in our Room were not able to provide electricity so we had to charge our electronic devices in the hallway. ||||- The floor was covered with carpet. On our departure day we had the chance to observe the cleaning lady. There we could see that she was not using a vacuum cleaner for the carpet but only a broom to clean the room. This confirmed our impression, that the rooms were not in the nicest and cleanest condition. In the radiator located in our bathroom was a lot of dust, which would have been easy to be vanished with a vacuum cleaner. ||||- The food provided was in avarage hungarian kitchen and good filling. We were sad to hear, that although as full-boarded package advertised in the internet, as lunch we were offered only a soup. At least the waiter offered us double portion of soup (at dinner you get normal portion) so that weren't hungry afterwards. The dinner menu contained: Soup - Main dish - sider Salat - Dessert. Breakfast was nice and in good variaty (Omelet, sausage, different bread, Ham and Cheese, tomato & cucumber, paprika, honey and strawberry jam, cereals and joghurt, coffee, orange juice, tea and milk).||||- The Hotel offered us an All-you-can-dring Wine-Package included in our price. We could chose and drink out of 5 different wines. The wine was delicious and we enjoyed it, especially because were allowed to consume it on our room as well. ||||- At the end of our stay the price was a little bit higher than agreed on the phone. The lady at the reception informed us that booking on weekends is more expensive. We were sad that we got this information only when we complained the higher price on our bill. ||||- The Receptionist was not very talkative. So she didnt ask us if we enjoyed our stay, if we had any complaints, etc. We re sad to leave the Hotel with hardly 2 words, especially regarding the fact that the Hotel has only 5 rooms and for sure we were known to the staff. ||||- The Hotel provides a guarded Parking Area that is free of costs for Offi Hotel Guests. This is a very nice service because parking in the Center is expensive, even on weekends. The walk from the Hotel to the parking area takes 2 min (ca. 200m).||||As a resume we enjoyed being in Eger for 2 days. The Castle and the Center of the City with its small streets are worth it a visit. Our Stay in Offi Haz was friendly but we were not overwhelmed by the service provided. About Eger it could be said that 20-30 years ago it was a beautiful hungarian city. it seems a little bit oldfashioned by now. The Turkish bath for sure is one of...
Read moreWe fall in love with the atmosphere of this cute historical city, Eger.||||In the heart of the city we found this cute, family run hotel a few years ago. We had some great meals on their terrace when we discovered that they have five nice rooms upstairs. They offered it on competitive price including breakfast, and half or full board on request. The owners of the hotel were really friendly and helpful. As we returned four times already, we can see that they work really hard to improve their services.||||The rooms are not so large but very pleasant for a couple, clean and well maintained. The food in their restaurant is traditional Hungarian with some fantasy. They were flexible in changing the menu to support our low gluten diet. They keep a good selection of local wines from some of the best wineries, as Eger is one of the famous winemaking regions of the country.||||We spent there some really refreshing and relaxing long weekends. We will return soon!||||Just a tip: to reach the most beautiful Turkish bath we ever seen is just 10 minutes walk along the banks of the Eger stream running next...
Read moreThis is a small, family run hotel. If you're looking for 5* you'll be disappointed. However, we found it charming. 3 of the rooms overlook the town square (choose rooms 3, 4, or 5, I think). The other two rooms have less good views.||Breakfast sitting outside on the cobbled square was wonderful. ||Eger is a lovely town and well worth visiting.||||Top tips:||1. Visit the Torok furdo (Turkish bath). I'm a bit of a spa fan and have been to many, but this place is special. Make sure you go to the right entrance, else you end up in the outdoor part which seems to be used as a municipal pool in the summer. The evening sunlight reflecting off of the water and around the gilt-covered cupola was spectacular.||2. Visit the wine caves (I can't remember the name). They're just out of town - I think that there are special buses that go, to save you the mistake that we made of requiring a nominated driver. Well worth a hazy afternoon's...
