Luxury Digs and Winter Adventure: High Tatras, Slovakia

It’s February, and in the northern hemisphere, winter is most definitely here!

One of our favorite winter getaways to date was to the Grand Hotel Kempinski High Tatras in Strbske Pleso, Slovakia. It was a magical weekend full of luxury, adventure, delicious food, and snow . . . lots of snow! Here is a little preview of all that the Kempinski, and its unique surroundings, have to offer.

If you make a trip to the Kempinski High Tatras, here are the awesome things that await you:

  • Breathtaking scenery in the High Tatra mountains, with the Kempinski being set right on an alpine lake, which is perfect for exploring, making giant snowballs, and sliding across the ice!

  • Snow rafting and skiing in the Tatras, with nine slopes less than a mile from the hotel (and a private hotel shuttle that takes you there- bingo)!

The hotel is so close to the nearby slopes and winter park (with snow tubing and snow rafting), and takes you directly to and from with a private hotel shuttle.

Could a pool setting be any more beautiful?
