Považie rich in castles and chateaus

It would be hard to find a region in Slovakia where there are more castles, chateaux or castle ruins than in the Považie region. In the vicinity of Piešt'any you can visit the castles of Beckov, Červený kameň and Čachtice Castle, which are steeped in legends; visits to Trenčín Castle, Topoľčany Castle, Nitra Castle and Smolenice Castle are also interesting. Less than a 20-minute drive from the hotel is the village of Podolie, where the informative Miniature Park is worth a visit.

Organised events

The traditional opening of the summer season is a celebration with a rich cultural programme called Opening of the Summer Spa Season. It has been held annually during the first weekend in June since 1992.

In June, there is also a multi-day show of historic vehicles called Piešt'any's Golden Ribbons, which you should definitely not miss during your stay at the Park Hotel.

Until recently, Piešt'any Airport was known for organising large events. However, with increasing interest in air stays, one of the most famous festivals in Piešt'any – Grape – has to search for a new home. On the contrary, Piešt'any Airport should become a traditional home of the Aviation Festival of Piešt'any, the first year of which was held in 2019.

In addition to the Grape Festival, other music festivals with national and international significance such as Topfest or Lodenica are held in Piešt'any every year.

Film connoisseurs will also find something to their liking in Piešt'any. The Cinametik International Film Festival is held here every year.

Piešt'any also has a unique atmosphere during Advent, when Christmas markets are organized.

For animals on the farm, in the zoo and in the shelter

If you are an animal lover or if you want to take your children to see them, you can do so during your stay at the Park Hotel. On Spa Island, a quarter-hour's pleasant walk from the hotel, is the Bird Mini Zoo. You can do a good deed if you visit the Piešt'any shelter. Even if you can't adopt one of the abandoned pets, your presence or a small tasty gift will surely make them happy.

 "Exotic" animals make their home in the Eko Park Piešťany, which can be reached in less than 10 minutes by car from the hotel.
