+ Lovely place near the Balaton lake. Walked to the village for a short stroll. The room is cozy - you might have to be carefull when walking under the small door frames. The atmosphere is fantastic, history meets modern accommodation standards. Staff was lovely, we needed to do a late checkin and they did it for us, so we could go to our event and just follow the very clear instructions to get into our apartment in the late hours. The breakfast was tasty - we have enjoyed Langos especially and a cinamon roll.
− We failed to find the TV remotes so the kids were a bit dissapointed.

Suite with Lake View Suite with Lake View 6 days ago young couple
+ Staying at Houses of History was one of the most amazing experiences. We extended our stay spontaneously. The historic houses have been restored with love and offer stunning experiences, sleeping under thatched roof and watching sunset over the small lake. The place is so welcoming - flowers arranged everywhere, luxury linnen and toiletries, and a huge communal room where refreshments are available all day. If you can, join the dinner offered by the hotel. The place is next to the natural reserve and from the front door you are stepping out into the lavender fields. Don't miss out on this place!
