Zamek Karpniki Schloss Fischbach

My experience at this hotel was disappointing from the start. The receptionist during check-in was incredibly rude, offering no information about the castle and dismissively suggesting I read online. When I asked about the premises, her response was a curt "go and explore." To top it off, our reserved room with a double bed turned into separate beds. Despite requesting a change, she initially refused until I insisted on speaking to the manager, and suddenly a different room became available. Overall, the service left a bad impression in a supposedly luxurious property. It's disheartening that the management tolerates such rude staff.

Just WOW - to stay in such a fantastic castle - touching history was an amazing experience. The decor, the staff, facilities and location were simply amazing. I was travelling by horse and carriage and it was a fabulous end to the trip. Amazing food, location and a spa

The castle is mediaeval in origin with several rebuilds. It still has a working moat (Pol: fosa) and is worth a visit just for this. No entrance unless your are a hotel or restaurant guest - restaurant has 'Warsaw' prices. I think it would be a good place to stay to get the true 'castle' atmosphere. There is a very nice white loggia by a small lake that, if you sit in it, offers a great view of the castle and the mountains in the background.

Best stay of our Poland trip. Wonderful rooms and setting. Worth going out of your way to stay here. The restaurant was great and the staff was very nice. Amazing breakfast buffet selection. Peaceful setting on a little pond.

This polish region is very nice from the natural point of view. There are not too many luxury hotels. Most of them are converted from old palaces or aristocratic former mansions. We checked several and concluded that this hotel ( originally called Schloss Fischbach ) offers the best choice. It is housed in a castle-like building, build by a member of the Hohenzollern family as a summer retreat. After years of neglect it has been refurbished as a hotel with much detail and taste. Rooms are large, furnishing is in style with the building and the general atmosphere is of what you would expect from a “castle”. Public rooms on the first floor look amazingly close to what the Hohenzollern had in mind. The hotel does not have AC but all other modern conveniences are available. We had the Renaissance apartment consisting of an oversized bedroom and sitting room, with another separate Study room and a gigantic bathroom with huge cabin shower and bath tub. It was furnished with antiques, nice carpets and an outstanding XVIII tapestry. WIFI worked well, breakfast was great with a huge selection of vegetable dishes so generous it could be called a brunch. Dinner and lunch could be had in the same restaurant and the menu and food was excellent. I recommend dining in house. Reception and restaurant staff are well trained and kind. They have a Spa consisting of 2 saunas and a hot tub.

We spent many days at this castle in the fall and it was beautiful surrounded by nature! The rooms were spacious. The spa had a hot tub outside which was so much fun sitting under stars at night. Quiet rooms, wonderful meals, great place to walk and relax.

Having visited many posh places worldwide, I can be proud that Lower Silesia has so classy place as Karpniki. Everything is simple perfect: scenery, careful services, serious implementation of Covid-19 measures, etc. Restaurant offers great meals, both as the breakfast and a la Carte meals. Do not miss their famous outside hot springs bath.
