Novi Sad, Serbia Staying At The Fortress – Hotel Leopold I

There is no better area to live in Novi Sad than on the castle lodge in Petrovaradin. The citadel is referred to as the Gibraltar of Danube within the olden instances.

When I first saw the hotel on-line (Hotel Leopold I), I simply knew that it is the place to live within the city. And I become very proper. The motel’s putting isn't always handiest dramatic offering cultural insights and historic revelations, however it also bids top notch sweeping perspectives of the Danube River and Novi Sad.

The fort motel is just 100 metres to the Varadin Bridge and about 10-15 minutes walk to Novi Sad town centre. There is a brief reduce from the castle main to the bridge through a brick tunnel and stairway. I arrived right here with the car so I took the longer direction passing via extraordinary ramparts and embankments of the 17th century old castle.

I typically stroll to the city centre, and going returned to the fort I opt to take the taxi due to the fact it's far fast. You pay approximately 110-one hundred twenty Dinars (RSD) that's pretty reasonably-priced.

The personnel had been very jolly and friendly. They welcomed me with the traditional Serbian drink – Rakija, and a few strawberry jam. They informed me that the alcoholic shot and the jam goes together. I didn’t recognize that jams can be a remarkable accompanying object for alcoholic liquids?

They also gave me the history of the inn in a rolled paper tied with a crimson ribbon. I learned that the inn is named after the Habsburg Emperor Leopold I of Austria who advised the fortress to be constructed. The real constructing of the resort was the accommodation quarters of the army officers.

I have to mention that I quite preferred my room; it's miles very traditional, fashionable and Baroque. The pink and yellow beige color theme had been very dominant and coupled well with cream white and gold palette accents. When I arrived a welcome letter and a Serbian sweet pastry was anticipating me in the small sitting room. The gesture could be very lots liked however I couldn’t finish even half of of the sacchariferous issue because my tastebuds revolted. Give me some thing salty and spicy whenever, please?

The most effective thing that could be a bit of a minus for this room are the home windows. They had been not big enough. Too awful because you have got the Danube River and Novi Sad views before you.

Breakfast turned into quite a royal enjoy. It changed into served buffet fashion with champagne as an alternative, aspect by way of side with espresso, tea and juice. A large leg of ham was displayed on the table. The Serbs, I observed, love their personal domestically cured ham, in addition to their pork cracklings! Pork cracklings are big within the Philippines in which I become born. So it's far a surprise to me to look that they are very well acquired in Eastern Europe as well. I actually have seen them up to now in Slovenia, Croatia and now in Serbia.

Also, I am grateful for the properly geared up resort workforce for preserving my Mac charger and cooperating easily with the lodge I stayed at in Belgrade. They controlled to reunite me with my Mac charger that I by accident left at the back of! Thank you so much!
