I took a couple of days off work and went to Cesky Krumlov with my wife. Friends had stayed at Pension Barbakan and found it good. We didn't know what to expect but were very pleasantly surprised. There are a lot of pensions in Cesky Krumlov and the streets are a maze but Barbakan was relatively easy to find. Reception... More

We stayed in the deluxe room on the top floor, a very spacious,  quiet room with views  over the Vltava River.   There are pine floors, which squeak like the dickens, and heavy, all pine furnishings which gives the room a definite Czech look.    Unfortunately there is no mini fridge or coffee maker which we think is an oversight....

We had a wonderful 2-night stay in Pension Barbakan. Fantastic location. Really friendly receptionist who spoke fluent English. We were fortunate enough to have a car park directly in front of the main building. Highly recommend.

There is maybe a hundred hotels and B&B in Cesky Krumlov. Most of them are very good and considering the extend of downtown, all close to the castle. This one is in my point of view one of the best value locations, because it's directly opposite (over the creek) to Hotel Ruze, with no doubt the most exclusive one in... More

Last September my mom and I stayed 2 nights at the corner unit of the 2nd floor, facing the river and bridge downstairs. We loved the room! It was spacious, nicely decorated in red color, and I loved the antique furnitures, too! The staff couldn't be more helpful and nicer... We were recommended to try a fish dish at the... More

We enjoyed our 1 night stay. The room was clean, bed okay, lamps rather dim. The room we were in Number 1 looks right out on the street so it can be and was noisy. The host and hostess were very nice people and the breakfast was quite pleasant. I would definitely stay there again, in a different room.

As always, booking sight-unseen on the internet is a bit of a gamble, and there's always the odd bad review mixed in with the good ones. But we were very happy with the result at Barbakan. Location turned out to be ideal, it's an easy walk from the bus station (how we arrived from Prague), and technically just outside the... More

The Barbakan is a very nice hotel in a great location. It is only a couple of minutes walk to the centre of the Old Town, but far enough away to escape the crowds. I would like to make special mention of the lady who was at the reception desk and attending the breakfast room. She made us feel so... More

We were pleased that we chose to stay at Pension Barbakan. It was a particularly good choice as we had a rental car and were able to have one of the two parking spaces by the Pension. (Be sure to request one in advance if you come by car.) The location really couldn't be better for seeing the ever-so-charming town.... More
