Penzión Príjemný Oddych Overview
First Impressions
Penzión Príjemný Oddych sits quietly on Starozámocká street, and honestly, you might walk right past it if you’re not paying attention. The name translates to “Pleasant Rest,” which is actually pretty spot-on for what you’ll find here. It’s one of those unassuming places that doesn’t try too hard but somehow gets everything right.
Location & Historic Charm
Being right in Banská Štiavnica means you’re practically living inside a UNESCO World Heritage site — the old mining buildings and baroque architecture are literally outside your door. I mean, you can walk to the Old Castle in about ten minutes, and the famous Calvary complex is just up the hill. What I really appreciated was how this three-star place lets you experience the town like a local rather than a tourist passing through.
The Room Experience
The room I stayed in was simple but thoughtfully arranged, with wooden furniture that felt authentic rather than trying to be trendy. You know what struck me? The windows are proper double-glazed, so even though you’re on a main street, it stays surprisingly quiet at night. The bathroom was spotless and modern — not huge, but everything worked perfectly, which honestly matters more than fancy fixtures.
Breakfast & Daily Rhythms
Breakfast happens in their small dining area, and while it’s not elaborate, they do fresh bread and local ingredients really well. The staff actually remembers how you like your coffee after the second day, which is the kind of detail that makes a difference. There’s parking available too, which you’ll definitely appreciate if you’re driving through Slovakia’s mountain roads to get here.
Why Guests Love It
What really works about Penzión Príjemný Oddych is that it feels genuine — like staying with relatives who actually want you to enjoy their town. The 8.8 rating makes sense when you consider that they’re not trying to be something they’re not, just doing the basics exceptionally well. It’s the kind of place where you end up staying an extra night because you’re not quite ready to leave Banská Štiavnica behind.

Guest Reviews
The breakfast was excellent value for only €3.5. We could choose from eggs, ham and eggs, sausages, with plenty of fresh pastries, baguettes and mini croissants, plus honey, butter and other basics. There was unlimited juice, tea and coffee, which...

What could be improved: Nothing
Fantastic location right in the heart of the Old Town — all the main sights are within walking distance. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, which made our stay even more enjoyable.

The location is excellent. In the heart of the old city
What could be improved: The room under the roof was too hot and for grownups rather tight.
Beds squeezed between walls.
Very good location in the center, next to the old caste. Easy to walk from here. You can park there, too. Super breakfast in the morning , and very nice staff! And also there is bar and restaurant down, we did not try it, but seems great too What...
Very nostalgic, clean, traditional breakfast.
What could be improved: the extra charge for a parking spot… also they could at least know a little english
