Hotel Franko Zvolen — Hotel in Zvolen

Review of Penzion Franko, not Hotel Franko||Our trip to Zvolen was to attend a karate seminar, and we chose this pension because it was near the university training hall and next door to the Hotel Franko, where our master was staying. We stayed for one week, and found the accommodation to be comfortable and good value for money, with great service from the staff.||The two Frankos share the Franko restaurant, which serves traditional Slovakian dishes and also an extensive range of pizzas for dine in, takeaway or delivery. A decent and plentiful breakfast is served from the restaurant to guests of both locations.||The location was very convenient for anyone wishing to be near the main visitor attractions, just off the main plaza. It was an easy 15 minute roll with our bags from the bus stop / train station.||The room was tidy & the bed quite comfortable.

The bathroom was modern and adequately appointed, spotlessly clean too. There were only "velux" roof windows in our...

I very rarely write negative reviews and it really has to be a bad experience to make me want to publish one so yeah...thats how bad this was..||||My family and I visited this hotel restaurant today and we left still hungry and disappointed . Its a bad sign to leave a restaurant as a hungry person! ||||The highchair for my son was probably being used for at least a decade and the chef must have had a very bad day! Thats my only hope anyway.||||One part of the order had uncooked meat while my meat was so SO dry I couldn't believe. ||||I expect some kind of quality for what I pay, and here I paid quite a lot and received very VERY LOW QUALITY food....
