Fabolous hotel with great service. We felt like kings in our gorgeous double room, which in any other place would have been called a suite. Super service all through the hotel, the library bar and the ambitious restaurant. The breakfast also lived up to the same high standards, with a chef cooking up egg dishes before you. Though technically the hotel is not part of the actual hluboka Castle, it is situated on it's grounds, and you still very much feel that you are living in a Castle. Amazing place.

Last time we didn’t have to pay extra for the Sauna. Now, we were surprised by the request (after checkout) to pay for it. We’ll do so, but we are really disappointed as nobody told us beforehand that the use comes with an extra fee. We really loved this place, but in this case we will look out for a place in the city centre next time.

The setting and appearance of this hotel are magical and the town of Hluboka is lovely. We had a deluxe room which overlooked the town and made us feel like royalty. Some of our friends had rooms on the upper level with low ceilings and awkward bathroom configurations so be sure to specify a lower level room if these issues are of concern. Staff is friendly and helpful.

At the top of a steep hill next to the castle, hotel is a faux style C18 building in a quadrangle. Some rooms have limited headroom in places. Room was large with en suite but lacked walk-in shower, otherwise good and comfortable (no A/C) Alarmed to discover bar closed at 10:00pm exactly (except Sat). Breakfast on the terrace was very good with wide choice of cold and hot foods, coffee, juices etc. Parking is nearby as you can find it with ticket passes supplied by hotel. Next door castle is worth a tour, but a bit faux in comparison with French Chateaux or German Schloss- best viewed from a distance. Town below nice if a bit touristy, beyond that fantastic sports facilities for all types.

Very beautiful hotel with pictoresque surroundings! Rooms were nice with basic amenities. The tv was rather small and only showed czech programs. Although there was Netflix, but since the tv hadn’t been connected to WiFi(which the hotel had in every room), it did’nt work. Polite staff. Every restaurant in the town closes before 22 o’clock, also no food available in the hotel after that. So, remember to go to dinner on time! :)

cool, this hotel is the best.

Overall it was OK, but we encountered several issues. 1. Wifi didn’t work in our room at all 2. Condition of the room and hotel itself was not good. Furniture, beds was worn and paint on the walls was peeling off. 3. Water in the indoor pool was cold, even in hot tub was freaking cold. 4. Meals in the hotel restaurant “Erb”, were so spicy, that I was not able to taste the tomato soup. On the other hand, staff was extraordinary kind and friendly.

Can’t beat the fact that you’re staying next to a castle. The hotel property is almost castle-like itself and we loved the paintings they had on the wall.

Hotel is nice and just next to the castle but the internet does not work in the rooms!

Another amazing family stay in this lovely hotel. The only disappointment was very small choice of food in restaurant for vegans or those with allergies. For example only lactose-free milk for breakfast but no vegan option...which was available last year....hopefully that can be addressed easily, as otherwise very friendly and helpful stuff...would definitely recommend and will be returning....

Loved the place, it's incredibly close to the castle and the hotel itself looks like a castle straight from Disneyland. The staff is quite nice and the restaurant has good offers for decent prices. Only had a couple hiccups with the room cleanliness when we arrived but it was not too troublesome. Also note the parking included is outside, the indoor parking is paid. Would definitely recommend the place for a romantic weekend, it was really gorgeous!

We stayed at the hotel for one night and enjoyed it very much. A big castle right next to Hluboká castle, very nice, clean and spacious rooms (deluxe room), beautiful court in the middle of the hotel and great views of the lakes and the town. Friendly staff and street parking was fine (make sure you display your ticket on the dashboard). The wellness centre was good and relaxing. Well-thought decoration everywhere; with the exception of the dining room / restaurant, with white bright led lights that made dining a bit uncomfortable. The only issue we had was with the restaurant options which were limited and the food wasn’t great, the pasta was very greasy and the mashed potatoes were too salty. The snack menu was better.

Amazing hotel with a fantastic location and very helpful staff. For family booking deluxe rooms are very specious and no need to have an extra room just ask for extra bed which wasn’t a problem. Food is excellent.

The hotel definitely has amazing location and beautiful chateau-like character that makes the experience special. Big disappointment was internet (very poor WiFi), and wellness area (only gym, a tiny pool and a hot tub with working air but not jets).Sauna must be booked and paid for separately. Tiles in our bathroom were showing signs of mold.We were also little concerned about cleanliness of the tub as we found a clear razor cover sitting on the side of the tub (easy to not notice it but hard to miss during the actual cleaning process).We stayed in a small suite, and overall it was a pleasant experience for one night but don’t think we would go back.

Close to the famous Hluboka nad Vltavou castle, the hotel provides the guests with free access to spa (jacuzzi, swimming pool, etc.) as well with bathrobes and slippers you can use, which you find in your room's wardorbes. Strongly recommending to pack in your bags swimming slippers should you plan a visit to the spa. Breakfast offer is great as it ranges from cereals, freshly made omelettes on spot, cold cuts, fruit, veggies, etc.Free parking is a plus as well.The attic rooms are a bit tricky for tall people. On a bit of downside, there is lack of safe boxes within the room, though we felt safe all the time during our stay.

Good space, very clean. The only issue was that the ceiling was too low in some parts of the apartment.

Book some other wellness hotel in the town center instead, hotel Diamant or Pod Hradem both looked fine. Hotel Štekl is not a good value for money and we disliked more things about the hotel than we liked. We stayed in a classic double room located on the ground floor for 3 nights. The room looked nice but it lacked some basic maintenance and there was no kettle/coffee maker which we consider to be a standard at 4 star hotels. WiFi connection was extremely poor in the room and often disappeared completely. So, we had to use our own mobile data instead. This is unacceptable at a 4 star hotel. WiFi connection is essential and should be working. The gym definitely needs some maintenance. There were rusty dumbbells and even broken squeaky machines. There was no water fountain in the gym. We liked the hotel’s interior design and decoration but again we quickly noticed areas in need of cleaning and maintenance. The spa center is nice but rather small. We had free access, just like other guests, so it got quickly full at times. It only feels relaxing when there’re few guests using the spa facilities. We used a steam room every day and every day the light in it did not work. Temperature in the small swimming pool was different every day; sometimes way too cold for us to use it. There were stains on the ceiling in the spa center which might have been mould. Another major problem was noise inside the hotel. We could very easily hear other guests walking around and even talking.

Excellent location, nice staff. The hotel has seen better days - holes in the carpets, smeared walls, glass rings on furniture... Even in it’s prime of life it would never get proper 4 stars.

Perfect location. Adorable castle setting. Like stepping back in time with all the comforts of today. I loved it!

A wonderful stay in this lovely hotelVery nice and helpful staff

Hotel is part of the Hluboka Castle so you can stroll through the exquisite gardens early morning and evening. The atmosphere is elegant, buffet breakfast is fantastic and the spa facilities are excellent

Very nice hotel with friendly staff. Excellent cuisine! Small spa. Everything we expected from one night break. Furniture and decoration just like if you were in the castle! Quiet place, comfortable sleeping in cold room in the lower floor. We came on a motorbike and we parked it just in the front of entrance - lovely!

Good location,parking outside hotel unless you paid for garage

Good location, next to the Castle. A super hotel, nice and clean. Good restaurant with good breakfast. Room is spacious with comfortable bed,strong WiF, quiet and a nice view. The steam room can hold up 8 persons. Reception staff are friendly.

If you are looking for a unique experience then this is the place for you! The service was amazing, food was delicious and the room was cozy! They also have spa access where you can get massages for a decent price, hot tub, pool and bowling alley! Will come back next time in Czech!
