What makes a family holiday comfortable?

Some are looking for active relaxation, others for the tranquillity of our little gem of a hotel, the atmosphere of the old plane trees. But most importantly, you should spend your time here relaxing and enjoying moments of joy. The hospitality of Platán Hotel at Lake Balaton and our family-friendly attitude is reflected in every detail to make your experience perfect.

 

What is the most important aspect of your holiday for you?

• The shores of Lake Balaton, the attractions of Zamárdi, the excellent restaurants, the proximity of the ferry?
• Our private pool, Finnish sauna, comfortable rooms, or a delicious breakfast buffet?
• Our playground, the child-friendly environment, maybe a free baby-kit?
• Is it the fact that your pets are also welcome here?
• The welcoming atmosphere, a charming garden and beautiful green surroundings?

 

Platán Hotel at Lake Balaton is the ideal choice for a family holiday. Even if the idea of travelling with small children or a baby may seem complicated at first, it’s still worth taking the plunge. This family-friendly environment is for you!

 

1. Free baby-kit, because when you have less stuff everything is simpler!

At Platán Hotel we provide a free baby-kit so you don’t have to bring all the bulky items with you. This way you can pack more comfortably and you’ll have more space during the journey.

The free baby-kit includes:

• a baby bath
• a high chair
• a baby cot

 

 

If this is your first trip, it’s handy to depart at the beginning of your baby’s bedtime. The car lulls the baby to sleep and a rested, smiling child wakes up at Lake Balaton.

Our hotel provides closed parking for your convenience on arrival.

 

2. A small paradise, a few minutes from the beach

Platán Hotel at Lake Balaton awaits you with adventures and a peaceful, protected environment. In our secure enclosed garden, you’ll find a playground and shaded areas where little ones can explore the world while you can finally relax.

Lake Balaton is just a stone’s throw away, so you can go for a swim or a walk in the sunset at any time. On the beach you’ll also find a sandy beach for children and a splash area.

 

3. Private pool, Finnish sauna

In the garden you’ll also find an outdoor pool where older children can have fun splashing around while you relax on the sun lounger. If you’re travelling with a small baby, the hotel pool is the perfect place for your little one to get familiar with the water while you splash around together.

Would you like to enjoy some me-time in the Finnish sauna while the rest of the family is having fun?

The holiday is a time to recharge and leave behind the difficulties of the period behind you. Our Finnish sauna helps you relax, reduces stress and supports the immune system, improves blood circulation, detoxifies the body and refreshes the skin.

The question is, after a good sauna session, which would you choose: a splash in the pool or a nap in the soft bed in the afternoon?

 

4. Comfortable air-conditioned rooms with terrace and breakfast

Our small family-friendly hotel has 16 rooms, all with terraces, soundproofed and air-conditioned. In such an environment, even putting your little ones to sleep is child’s play. While the little ones are sleeping, you can sit out on the terrace with a glass of Lake Balaton wine and enjoy the endless tranquillity of a starry evening.

 

 

The rooms are equipped with the following:

• Private bathroom, towels
• Flat-screen TV with cable channels
• Refrigerator
• Beds with comfortable mattresses, bed linen and soft pillows

If you’re travelling with teenagers, you might also consider booking two separate rooms. You’ll love a bit of private space and the youngsters will love the chance to have some independence. Having teenagers doesn’t mean leaving them at home; shared experiences grow as they do. Even more important at a time like this, a family holiday can give you memories to last a lifetime before the kids fly out.

Choose from our double rooms, triple rooms or family rooms with a double bed and a bunk bed, according to your needs. Platán Hotel at Lake Balaton awaits you with complete tranquility!

 

5. A generous breakfast buffet is included in the room rate!

The smell of steaming coffee, freshly baked pastries and fruit will lure you out of bed. The room rate includes a generous breakfast buffet, with something for all ages. If someone in your family has a special diet, let us know in advance and we will arrange for lactose, gluten or sugar-free treats.
