Kaštieľ Kubínyi - Hotel & Wellness | Coffee & Wine — Hotel in Vyšný Kubín

I stayed at the Kaštieľ Kubínyi for five nights with my family of four in July 2025. We really enjoyed our stay and all agreed that this is a special place. |There are twelve rooms altogether, five in the mansion itself and seven in the former stables where the restaurant and the spa are located as well. None of the rooms in the mansion were occupied during our stay. We had an apartment that consisted of two bedrooms, a bathroom and a terrace. It was very spacious, clean, stylishly decorated and equipped with a safe, TV, tea station, hair-dryer, fridge, and bathrobes. Ample storage space was provided and the beds were comfortable. There was no A/C, but I suppose it isn’t needed as even though the weather was warm, the room never got too hot. There bathroom was brand-new with a great shower and nice range of toiletries provided. The one thing we didn’t like about the room was the fact that the blinds in our bedroom where thin and light-coloured so that the room got very bright once the sun was up, and that the two side windows in the boys’ room didn’t have blinds or curtains at all. We blocked out the light with pillows and cushions which wasn’t easy as the windows were narrow but very high. I suppose attaching curtains would interfere with the decoration concept of the room. Just letting the light in interferes with guests’ comfort, though.|Breakfast was buffet style with an additional breakfast menu from which different egg dishes, porridge etc. could be ordered. The food was very good, choices were adequate. All the staff were polite, friendly and helpful.|The price of the room also included two hours in the spa and a guided tour of the 18th-century mansion. The spa is very nice with a small indoor swimming pool, a sauna and a steam bath. We greatly enjoyed swimming with a panoramic view of the mansion and mountains and then relaxing in the sauna. However, we thought that a mere two hours in the spa during our five-night-stay were far from adequate. This should be extended to two hours a day or at least every second day. |We enjoyed the tour of the mansion very much. The mansion is very pretty with an interesting history and our guide was very knowledgeable.|Kaštieľ Kubínyi is a special place. We enjoyed our stay very much. With a little effort, they could achieve true excellence. We could tell that the decorative items in the room, the linens and towels were carefully chosen and of high quality. The same attention to detail should be applied throughout. For example, one of the chairs on our terrace was badly damaged. The staircase lamps were dusty. The choice of bread for breakfast got smaller every day. These are just small things that I wouldn’t mention in a chain hotel review, but a place like Kaštieľ Kubínyi should strive for perfection. Nevertheless, I warmly...

What an absolute treasure among the soul-less hotel chains and independently owned places forever stuck in the past decades. ||To see the place before the restoration years ago and now took our breath away. The exclusive and limited availability adds to this gem even more value. Definitely check before you make your travel arrangements to avoid disappointment. We have visited the hotel mid-week on Wednesday only for the one-night experience. From the first moment when you arrive at the entry gate, you can feel this is no ordinary place to stay. ||The staff was wonderful, smiley, friendly, warm and made us feel like we are one of the long-time regular guests. Welcome drinks came as surprise as it is not something you see a lot in Slovakia. Clearly the owners travelled a bit more than just to Bratislava to learn the level of hospitality is now around the world from the best places to stay. ||The quality of the hotel building, room, wellness and whole restoration of the manor-house is impeccable and no surprise it took the owners more than 10 years to get it done. ||Wellness is cute, small little space of the relax heaven on its own neatly tucked next to the lobby area with a great view outside through oversized windows. The place is ideal for the events and special occasions due to its countless options to capture the unique moments in beautiful surroundings indoors or outdoors. ||Fine dining restaurant adds to the whole experience lovely touch. Personally, I think there is a potential to have a Michelin star as well If desired by the owners and the team. The cooking style is seasonal, simple and focused to please not only your pallet but all your senses. It reminds me a little bit of cooking of great British Chef William Drabble. However, if you prefer the more local and rustic way of dining, you may find the portions way too small, sophisticated and delicate. The wine cart to complement the simple menu offered low to mid-range priced bottles of the wines from their preferred winemakers. No big pricey names but rather more settle selection of the most desirable bouquets to meet demand. ||All in all, our stay was among the best we had in years from all trips we did so far around the globe. Considering the location, the market, the state of the place before and the challenges of the current hospitality climate this hotel is way ahead of others in Slovakia when comes to quality even beyond the Slovakia border. ||We left the place with the promise that we will definitely be back in the future. This hotel is simply special, and you can feel the energy and love which have been invested to transform neglected old ruins into a truly magical place to stay. ||Thank you for your...
