Resort Mezná

We thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay here. Mezna is a small village out of the way, mainly on the map for the boat rides in the scenic gorge below. It also has a very regular bus service to Hrensko (about 10-15 mins away) which has stops for the walk to Pravcicka Brana, Europes Biggest natural sandstone arch. The guesthouse has a real young family feel and you feel like personal guests rather than residents (so not for those wanting a formal hotel style situation, but this is far more rewarding!). The location is amazing overlooking the forest and the steps down to the gorge start at the Penzion, although the boats depart several hundred feet below and about 50 mins walk away through the beautiful forest. I seriously recommend this trip and you can return to the Penzion by catching a bus at the other end of the boat ride, after about another 20 mins scenic walk. This saves you having to travel back on the boat and climb the incredibly steep steps up the gorge. Most of the staff speak good english or excellent german, are exceedingly friendly, have a good sense of humour & go out of their way to help. The doubleroom we stayed in was 40 euros & had a shower, but the WC was across the hall. It was clean & homely, more like staying in a friends spare room. Food was some of the best we ate in the Czech republic. The garlic soup topped our list of all the places we visited. Overall a real family feel in a secluded area with tasty food all for a good price! Definitely a gem of a find & if it wasnt so far from home we'd be frequent visitors!

We stayed in this penzion for 3 nights. We had a completely renovated room with all the fascilities as fridge, hairdryer, tv, WiFi etc. The room was very clean, with a beautiful view on the surroundings rocks and forests. The service was friendly, willing to help and we could also rent 2 bikes. The food was nice but still kind of czech cuisine, so for a longer stay i would prefer more vegetables. The room was a litrle bit expensive, but the location is unforgettable. I must say that we were lucky to travel in june because we avoid the mass of tourists that will come to this place in summer. Really a lovely place to stay..
