What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Szczawnica Park Resort & Spa’s decorative facade mirrors the Alpine-inspired architecture of the guesthouses and villas around town, and like other hotels in the area, it’s built around naturally occurring mineral springs.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The Grajcarek stream promenade runs past the doors, leading on foot to town cafes and Pieniny hiking trails.

The rooms
Rooms keep to charcoal tones with hardwood floors, moody forest murals, and plaid wool blankets.
The indoor pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Counter-current jets and a water cascade feed the indoor pool, lined with hooded wicker daybeds on timber decking.
The sauna and gym
The cedarwood Finnish sauna sits beside an ice fountain, just steps from a wood-floored fitness studio.
At the table
Kwiat Paproci prepares regional slow food under antler chandeliers. At Echo Leśne, live piano music accompanies evening cocktails.
How it began
Founders Renata Gorecka and Grzegorz Gacek spent eleven years in Switzerland before building their modern Alpine spa resort here.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
