A Very Nice Small Hotel in Levoca
This was not a hotel I expected to stay well spending my two nights in Levoca. The hotel that I had intended to stay in the Pension U Leva was actually full so I tried the hotel next door since it looked nice from the outside. It was actually nice in the inside also and cheap too. This serves to remind the traveller not to remain wedded to the travel books when looking for a hotel when you are visiting strange cities and towns. The Hotel Arkada is not mentioned in either LP or RG and is a very acceptable place to stay in. The location could not be better and the building has quite a bit of atmospheric charm. (It must have received a paint job since I visited since on the website the facade is yellow instead of pink). The hotel room was larger than I expected. I was surprised because the hotel clerk suspected that it might not be up to my standards but for one who has traveled over much of Europe I felt that room was large when I compared it to some of the rooms I have stayed in elsewhere. It was also well maintained and had cable TV. A major plus for this hotel is the restaurant in cellar. It is very popular, especially with tour groups and is quite worth checking out.
