ARIES Hotel & SPA

ARIES Hotel & SPA

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great stay and really enjoyed the hotel - the children especially loved it. The service was excellent throughout, and there were so many lovely Polish touches. The location was perfect for us too: close to everything, but away from the madness of Krupówki. The spa was brilliant. The pool never felt too busy, the jacuzzi was perfect, and the sauna area was amazing - three different saunas plus a steam room, with the whole space feeling incredibly calm and relaxing. A really lovely hotel and a great place to come back to after a busy day in the mountain. We’d definitely stay again."

8/10 Good
"The listing said the economy studio has 2 sofa beds. I ended up having a double and a sofa (not a sofa bed). My travel partner had to sleep on the sofa for 3 nights. It's about 15mins walk to the train station/buses. You can literally see the station when you walk out, it's just you have to go around the roads to get there. The apartment is located near the end of the road (at least quit into the road), but overall not a big problem. Other than that, space is good, had basic cooking stuff."

"lovely hotel on the outskirts of zakopane perfect for travelling to the mountains. room was lovely and clean and beds very comfy. staff were so kind and helpful with any questions and the restaurant attached had amazing food. only slight issue was a limited amount of parking spaces, we rented a car and had to park just outside the front door on our second night. not the end of the world though and we have come on an exceptionally busy weekend! highly recommend staying here"
