The language barrier was a bit difficult at first but easliy overcome with a bit of effort- i would def recomend hiring a mountain bike in the Tatra mountians- The tourist info centre can give you information on this- it is stupidly cheap and great fun- was a nighmare riding up a mountain for 2...more The language barrier was a bit difficult at first but easliy overcome with a bit of effort- i would def recomend hiring a mountain bike in the Tatra mountians- The tourist info centre can give you information on this- it is stupidly cheap and great fun- was a nighmare riding up a mountain for 2 hours but that was all forgotten coming back down the hill.close

At any time of the year, there are several outdoor activities available (walking, skiing, tobogganing, cycling etc). The town is a tourist paradise & swarms with school groups & small groups. Souvenir stands line the streets & there is a large market at the foot of Gubalowka Hill. Despite this, the place still retains a lot of charm & provides an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area. We found most residents very friendly & only too pleased to help with polite enquiries.close

Top Rated Zakopane Places to Stay

  1. Villa Harenda 90%      

    Very akin to a bed and breakfast really. The breakfast is superb and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The location is a little awkward as it is a distance from the town.

    Beautiful, traditional style hotel 5 min walk from main pedestrian street in Zakopane. Great facilities- pool table and jacquzzi. Great breakfast included. Not a party place, but a sophisticated retreat. A lovely change from the backpackers we have had. Staff very hospitable, did our washing and...

    Good hostel! Only problem was that there is only one shower for the entire hostel, and the rooms are very cold, but otherwise it's all good.
