Since the complex actually comprises three hotels sharing a restaurant, thermal pools and spa, we were given a free upgrade to Balnea, so this isn’t really a Kristal review; Balnea is currently the most luxurious, the third hotel is under renovation, the modern hotel is nice, staff are professional in English, German and French, it’s quiet, and our fourth‑floor room with balcony was very spacious with a handy luggage rack for two large suitcases, a great bathroom with plenty of space, a decent shower that drained slowly but was roomy, and a very comfortable bed. The thermal area is open to day‑visitors and we always found lounge chairs in the afternoon; it can get very sunny late morning to midday, which is a plus unless you visit in peak summer. There are three pools – one for slides, one for kids, and a large main pool where even toddlers in nappies were allowed, though that was rare. The sauna area looked nice but we didn’t use it because in August the sauna was “nature” style outdoors. We stayed on half‑board, had a buffet breakfast with a good selection (more salty than sweet, which is typical outside Italy, and Italians tend to be on a diet anyway), though some items like the yogurt weren’t great. Dinner was buffet plus a choice of two main dishes; the buffet’s hearty “spizzico” each night was better than the plated options. Overall the food is decent for an overseas resort, but very demanding diners might prefer staying in Italy.
“Splendido e rilassante”
The spa and pool area was definitely the highlight of my stay, but I have to say that the rest of the hotel was pretty great too. The staff were super helpful, even when I checked in late, and the room was spotless, even if it was a bit on the small side. The location was also really convenient, but the noise from the street outside was a bit of a problem. Overall, it was a great experience, but not perfect.
I was really looking forward to relaxing at this hotel, but unfortunately, the noise from the street outside my room made it hard to unwind. On the plus side, the spa was amazing – the staff were super friendly and the facilities were spotless. The room itself was small but clean and comfortable, and the location was great for exploring the city. Overall, I'd say it's a decent value for the price, but you might want to request a room on a higher floor if you're a light sleeper.
We stayed at the Balnea, next to the Antique Palace. The hotel is modern with all comforts, large rooms, good finishes, and comfortable beds. The restaurant staff were not very welcoming.
“Izvrsna lokacija ljubazno osoblje,vrhunske sobe,a spa centar vrh.Doći će mo opet”
The staff here were absolutely lovely, 10/10 for their kindness and helpfulness. The hotel itself was fantastic, with a spacious room that felt really comfortable. The pool and spa area were one of the best we've experienced - it's clear they've put a lot of effort into making it a relaxing oasis. The only thing that stopped it being perfect was the noise from the nearby road, but that's a small price to pay for such a great place to stay.
