I can definitely say that the Puchner Castle Hotel is one of the most beautiful and exciting accommodations in Hungary for those who like this style.

The puchner castle hotel is located on a huge estate away from the noise of the city.

Rooms

The rooms are located in seven different style buildings.

Elegant castle and palace, spa house with wellness area; grove house in a landscaped area with large terraces, a guest house for larger groups, a medieval old town, and a mansion reminiscent of a contemporary inn. We have booked a room in the mansion every time so far, I really like its style. With wooden beams, bricks, stone.

Wellness

There are wellness areas in several buildings, everyone can find the best for them, couples in love, the elderly, families. There is a part of the wellness that only adults can enter, but there is also a whole world of children, with a very low water pool for babies, a slightly higher water pool for small children and a larger pool with a slide for older children. There is a Moroccan-style spa, French spa, VIP spa ... whatever you want. There is also an outdoor pool, a simple pool surrounded by sun loungers and a grassy area.

Food

The meals are also impeccable. Lunch is also available on the adventure estate, it is a bit more restrained and not part of the booking. At breakfast you will find EVERYTHING you can think of. I wondered a lot if I could say something that was missing from the breakfast offerings. No! Many kinds of baked goods, cheeses, vegetables, fruits, fish cream, butter cream, cottage cheese, sausages, scrambled eggs, muesli, cereal, puffed rice, yogurt, coffee, tea, juice, salad, salami, ham ...

Dinner is buffet style, with appetizer, main course, dessert and fruit on long tables. In addition, the unlimited consumption of beer, wines, juice, soft drinks and mineral waters is part of the dinner. Meals always include local dishes as well as international cuisine.

The restaurant is very nice and proper clothing is a must. The rules are not very strict but long pants, closed shoes are an expectation.

There are plenty of activities in the castle hotel and the associated adventure estate.

Knightly gymnastics, equestrian theater, family programs, craft classes, playgrounds for small and older children, costume rental, petting zoo.

Adventure estate

The gates of the adventure estate are open to everyone, there are several entrances. From the puchner estate, hotel guests can go to the adventure wines at any time, but those who are not hotel guests only come for a day for the programs can also buy tickets. There are not many programs on the property on weekdays, but even then it is worth walking around because it is very beautiful and interesting. We can also see two small lakes, one with swans and koi fish, and there is a tiny dripping stream that drives a tiny watermill in the fairytale village. There are several small houses in the fairytale village, one of which belongs to the blacksmith, and behind the house you can find the blacksmith shop. (There are programs here on the weekends). There is the witch's house, from which mysterious music is heard, and entering we find ourselves in the dark, but dimly lit on the wall, we can see all sorts of ingredients for the witch's potions. And even there’s the magician’s house, with an exhibit.

The estate also has a baker, wood carver, tailor workshop with plenty of handicrafts.

Otherwise, all workshops, attractions, buildings are marked with a number. On the weekends if we want to take part in the game we will get a map of the estate at the gate on which we have to write the numbers of places that we see on the buildings. There is also a game that has symbols to look for in different locations on the estate. It adds an extra excitement to our day on the estate to excitedly search for hidden symbols.

Of course, there is also a costume rental where we can dress in medieval clothes and take photos. In most places, it works by choosing an outfit, taking a photo and then taking off the outfit, paying for the service and that’s it. It works differently here. You can rent clothes for a longer period of time if you want to rent a dress in the morning and walk around the property wearing it all day, wearing it and going to dinner. It’s really an experience like you’ve been dropped into another world, and not just for a few minutes while a photographer takes a picture of you. Of course, there is such a service as well, a photographer takes pictures of you in different places on the estate and puts those pictures on a mug or pillow or whatever you ask for.

My own feelings about the Puchner estate

The whole place is amazing! There are beautiful sculptures and flowers in the area of ​​the estate, the programs are interesting and exciting. The food is plentiful and delicious. You can't just visit this place once! When we were there for the first time, we were already planning when we were going to go next.

If you're traveling to Hungary, love the medieval style and want something that isn't ordinary, then your destination is Puchner estate, Bikal, Hungary.
