Dreamy Getaway!

Reviewed By Angelika R

Booked 2 nights with my partner in this charming Bed & Breakfast. We were warmly welcomed by the owners. They were also helpful in providing a map of the area and gave tips to make our stay here unforgettable. The B&B is situated only a short walk from the Lake and the centre of the town. And we a very tasty restaurant is also only a few streets away! The room was quaint and the shower was amazing! The garden of the B&B was an oasis of flowers and in the evenings we could sit on the provided chairs and enjoy the tranquility of the garden. I can't find any fault except for the morning coffee, but I'm not a fan of chicory. The rest of the breakfast catered for every taste! I'll definitely be booking here again at my next trip to Keszthely!

GOOD LOCATION

Reviewed By Ashram222

This hotel is well situated in Keszthely and although it is close to the main square the road itself is quiet. The hotel is clean but quite stark, particularly the reception area, and the breakfast area has dark heavy wooden furniture from a bygone era. The breakfast itself was good with a variety of items available from fresh fruit to cooked breakfast. Although the bedroom was quite big the shower room was very small in comparision and the towels provided were very thin and not really adequate to dry oneself after a shower. There is no parking available at the hotel but they provide tokens to park in an underground park about a mile from the hotel. Also the website stated that there was a restaurant open for dinner but when we arrived and requested a table we were told that it had shut 2 months ago!!

Tokajer Pension

Very nice hotel with lots of facilities

Reviewed By abarker02

This is a very good place to stay with an easy 20 minute walk to the lake/marina or to the downtown. The lobby area is a little dated but the rooms are clean, comfortable and air conditioned! Note that there are no elevators so request a ground floor room if stairs are an issue. Breakfast was very good. Lots of facilities with pools, a hot tub, a sauna, a games area and nice grounds to relax in. Parking is available right outside the hotel at no charge. The staff are friendly and do speak some English so we did not have any communication issues. Definitely recommended.

OK, but worn a bit

Reviewed By pengemex

Location is in quiet area of Keszthely. Receptionist lady at check-in was kind. Room is worn a little, but nothong serious. Bed was big and OK. Breakfast was fine, the serving lady (Niki) was extremely nice. You have to pass the internal pool area by a bridge going to the rooms which was a unique tought at the design stage but can be disturbing for people laying at the pool and also bad for the dressed people to walk in high humidity. What I found the most disturbing was the cleaning staff. They started to loudly vacuum clean the corridors before AM waking guests up. Then one of them entered my room at around 8 AM when I was still in bed. Another one of them entered at 8:20. During their work they were chatting very loudly.

Sorry, No wifi netwerk. I can't help you

Reviewed By Frankv332

Even when it was working the hotel does not have fast WiFi in the rooms as advertised. One night WiFi broke down and could not be restored by the staff on duty. 'Sorry sir, I can't call anybody. I know nothing'. The rest of the hotel is okay. Location out of town.

Apartment with defects

Reviewed By maarkus

The location of the apartment is extremely good. The center, the pedestrian street, many restaurants and the beach of Lake Balaton can be reached within a few minutes walk. The interior view of the apartment is pleasant, although the furniture and equipment are already heavily worn and need to be renovated. The apartment is only accessible by spiral staircase. The apartment (P11) itself has two floors, the one bathroom, for example, can only be reached by stairs. Not recommended at all for the elderly and people with limited mobility. The apartment for 4 people has a double bed on each level, so it is not recommended for families with children. The apartment has no air conditioning, ventilation is insufficient, there is absolutely no air upstairs. In high heat, the heat is unbearable. The staff is helpful and kind. Cleaning could be more frequent and thorough.

Good base,but not a smiley place...

Reviewed By isis_k_2013

Immaculately clean, so much so, that we weren't actually allowed to swim in the pool unless our heads were out of the water. Well equipped and reasonably situated (10 minutes walk to the beach in one direction and to local shops in other and about 20 minutes into town). Sadly, although the owner made an effort occasionally, she was more like a female Basil Fawlty in her attitude towards guests. If you do pay on arrival, make sure you get a receipt as she keeps no records and will ask for payment again when you leave. Still - a nice place to use as a base. Bear in mind that, as Balaton was where the East and West Germans used to meet before the Wall came down, German is a lot more widely spoken than English, not only in this apartment, but in the area as a whole. :)

The level of service was outstanding ! We enjoyed our stay from the beginning to the very end. Breakfasts were amazing, super tasty, with unique touch of homemade products included. Wellness area was quite impressive with every little detail covered by the owner. The room was spacious with everything needed. I'm glad that places like this still exists. Thank you for an excellent experience !

Absolutely perfect !

Reviewed By 673piotrm

We stayed at the Muschel Panzio for almost a week and we both were very impressed with the staff, facilities and building. The building - we loved it, nice big room with well appointed bathroom and nice balcony, good air con and a good bed.. The location, it’s perfect for exploring the town and the area around but fair enough away that if you wanted some quiet time you wouldn’t be disturbed The staff are great, very welcoming and couldn’t do enough for you. Mr Istvan Görei is a great host who looks after every detail. Muschel Panzio is definitely a place for demanding guests who require good standard and nice ambiance. We are very happy customers who would gladly return to Muschel.
