森林山飯店(Hotel Forest Hills)

Based on the name Forest Hills Hotel & Golf, we expected something fancy, but the interior of the hotel is more reminiscent of the eighties. The staff is nice, the rooms are clean and a good size. The sauna is in the central building, but we got a room in one of the guest houses, it was exciting to walk in a bathrobe at zero degrees. While using the sauna, you can notice that the hotel minimizes energy costs... It's strange that life stops here at eight o'clock in the evening. Not only the dinner ends, but the bar also closes. For those who don't come by car - for example, we were hiking - it's worth considering that, for example, on Sundays after 9 a.m., you can’t catch a bus to Zirc until around noon.

We stayed here for a weekend with my family (2 kids) in a deluxe suite. This room type and size with the 2 king beds suited perfectly to our needs and met our expectations fully. The room was tidy and neat, the bed was comfortable and it was nice and quite. The biggest highlights here are the service and the food (the 2 most important factors in hospitality). Everything is freshly cooked, small but fine, delicious buffet for breakfast and dinner. Nice wines and spirits at the bar. The kitchen was really helpful to serve us some lunch for the kids although they were not in full service in the time we came here. And it comes point number two: the People! From the first moment onwards everybody was nothing but helpful and thoughtful towards us trying to make our stay unforgettable which it really was. We definitely plan to return. The truth is, the hotel could use a facelift but nothing major compared to the hospitality and peace which we found in this beautiful area! It’s a pity not everything worked in the spa but the jacuzzi was great. The pool must be nice in the summer. The golf course is nicely kept and is a beautiful area itself.
