Slovak tastes in the legendary hotel

After your wanderings, come to recharge and eat at the pleasant restaurant of the Hotel FIS. You can choose from a selection of home-made meals, light salads or enjoy one of the delicious desserts. The chef’s tip – the traditional Russian borscht – can make it easier for you to decide what to have. In the summer monthssitting on the terrace in the captivating Tatra environment will be a well-deserved reward.
