PHOTOS: one of Hungary’s most astonishing luxury castle hotels close

Kastélyhotel Sasvár (Castle Hotel Sasvár) looks like the place of the king and the queen from our childhood fairy tales. “Whereever the king was the guest, the guest is the king today”, sounded their motto. Now they have to close because of the soaring energy and utility prices. The only good news is that the closure is temporary. The hotel may reopen in December.

The management is unable to deal with the energy prices

Kastélyhotel Sasvár has been functioning as a mansion hotel since 1996. Now, the skyrocketing energy prices will result in its temporary closure. The hotel’s management said they would do everything possible to remain open. However, after calculating the incomes and expenditures, they decided to close between 1 November and 1 December, sokszinuvidek.24.hu writes.

They said the reason is the “horrific gas and electricity prices.” They added they would like to save December in that respect and would notice their guests booking rooms for November an email soon. However, they will not be able to save the staff. Some members will leave to work somewhere else because of the temporary closure.

András Szélessy, the director of the luxury hotel, added that, based on the guests’ opinions, Hungary’s best hotel was to close.

Elegance and luxury everywhere

The mansion hotel in Parádsasvár is close to Hungary’s highest peak, Kékes (1014m). Its wellness facility includes specialities like a Kneipp stomper, panoramic jacuzzi, steam cabins, tepidarium, salt therapy cabin, Finnish sauna, infrared sauna, beer sauna and hay sauna. Guests can play billiards and tennis and use the trampoline. Inside, they can play X-box and use the 4K car simulator. Furthermore, there is also a cinema corner.
