I love the beautiful historical old town, walking around, sightseeing, visiting castles and museums. The history of this silver mining town is very interesting too, but I am not sure in which places you could really find and English speaking lecturer. According my opinion Banská Štiavnica is one of the most beautiful towns in Slovakia.
This is a must when you come to Slovakia. Real historical gem, with authentic genius loci. Historical places, museums, galleries, small shops and cafes in old buildings, good restaurants, breathtaking views... surrounded by beautiful mountains suitable for light hiking, beautiful artificial lakes called "tajchy" - their water is maybe too cold for swimming but a few kilometres from Banská Štiavnica you will find spa Sklené Teplice with thermal water.
Great for those ready to explore the town on foot. Wouldn't recommend it to people with mobility problems but it's great for family trips as there's so much to see and do. We walked for miles and highlight of the trip must be the 360• views from the top of Calvary hill and visit to nearby manor house in Svaty Anton. We used local bus to get to Svaty Anton and spent 3hrs there and left the Stiavnica town exploring for late afternoon on foot. We had just 1full day in Stiavnica so this was clearly not enough to see all attractions in the area but was a great experience to plan our time here.
Really nice city only 2+ hours away from Bratislava Old town very good preserved. Nice to walk around, interesting museums - visited Bartolomej mine (it is worth to bring warmer cloths & solid shoes) and Old castle (you can use the guide or just stroll around the courtyard and climb the walls as we did), short hike to Kalvaria (nice, quite place, panorama view)...you can spend easily two days in city. Just bring or withdraw some cash as not all places accepts card. Enjoy your trip!
Beautiful city, which has preserved the historical spirit. On the main street are cute cafes and souvenir shops. Favorite place for coffee and beer was Archanjel with very nice staff. BS streetfood restaurant for food to eat fast (it is little by hand, but you can order home delivery) and Monarchy restaurant for longer lunch or dinner with typical Slovak food. A little hidden is tea house Klopacka with selection off tea from around the world. The city has many historical monuments which are worth seeing but to all of them need to go uphill. :-) The surroundings are beautiful places and on nature walks. Is certainly worth visiting the gold and silver mine. The ideal time of stay is four days.
“Great view of the calvary and whole city of Banska Stiavnica”
“Apartment pretty large, clean, all furniture new, Reality was perfectly matching the pictures on web. Nice courtyard. Restaurant and small grocery just on the other side of the street. I was really satisfied and will come back when traveling to Banska Stiavnica or surroundings.”
“Hotel style breakfast included, very welcoming staff. I traveled with bicycle and they store in a secure place. I slept in the single room, unfortunately it don't have view, but the garden has an amazing view.”
“Staff went above and beyond for us (3 friends). We booked the accommodation in the evening on the day of arrival. On the booking it states check-in is only until 6pm. We arrived past 10pm and found no staff present. We called the number twice with no answer but after just a few minutes we got a call back. The staff member went out of his way to get us into the hotel and upgraded our room AND lowered the price due to inconvenience. Excellent customer service! Will recommend to family and friends.”
“This hotel offers special atmosphere, being nicely restored historical building. Excellent breakfast and kind staff.”
