Rooms at the 'Golden Deer' are unadorned but homely, with great mattresses and spotless bathrooms. There's also a sauna, pool and playground, all nestled amid woodlands 4km northwest of central Košice. The invigorating location is best suited to travellers with private transport; otherwise you can take bus 14 from town.
