Chrysso

Košice


Inside an 18th-century building, Chrysso retains some original baroque features from its past lives. Meanwhile the rooms boast sleek design (charcoal feature walls, filigree throws) and stylish bathrooms. Beds are immensely comfy, and aromatic herb pouches and floral arrangements sprinkle a little whimsy throughout the rooms. There's also a wine cellar and restaurant, where the breakfast buffet is prettily assembled.
