Apartmán Za kopcem

Apartmán Za kopcem Overview

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Apartmán Za kopcem, I’ll be honest — I wasn’t expecting much from the outside. It’s tucked away in a quiet residential area of Boskovice, and the building itself has that understated Czech charm that doesn’t scream “look at me.” But you know what? Sometimes the best places are the ones that don’t need to show off. The free parking right on site was immediately a relief — anyone who’s driven through Czech towns knows how tricky finding a spot can be.

The Space Itself

This three-star place is actually an apartment setup, which means you get way more space than your typical hotel room. The moment I stepped inside, I could see why couples rate this place so highly — there’s something really cozy about having your own little space rather than just four walls and a bed. The kitchen isn’t huge, but it’s got everything you need if you want to grab some local ingredients from the market and cook something simple. I mean, Czech bread and cheese taste even better when you’re eating them at your own little table, right?

Location Magic

Here’s where this place really shines — and honestly, the 9.3 location rating from couples makes total sense once you experience it. Boskovice isn’t some tourist trap; it’s a real working town with actual character. You can walk to the town center in about ten minutes, and there’s this lovely castle ruin (Boskovice Castle) that’s perfect for an evening stroll. The surrounding Moravian countryside is gorgeous if you’re into hiking or just want to escape the crowds you’ll find in Prague or Brno.

What Makes It Work

The owners clearly understand what travelers actually want — space to spread out, somewhere to park without stress, and a location that feels authentic rather than touristy. The apartment is clean and well-maintained, though don’t expect fancy amenities or a concierge desk. What you get instead is that rare feeling of staying somewhere that locals might actually choose for themselves. The Wi-Fi works well (I tested it extensively), and the neighborhood is quiet enough that you’ll actually sleep through the night.

Why Guests Love It

Look, if you’re the type who needs a hotel restaurant and daily housekeeping, this probably isn’t your place. But if you want to experience a slice of real Czech life while having your own comfortable base — well, that 9.2 overall rating isn’t an accident. Couples especially seem to love the privacy and the chance to play house for a few days. Plus, Boskovice is perfectly positioned for day trips to Brno (about 45 minutes) or exploring the Moravian Karst caves. It’s one of those places where you end up staying longer than planned, not because there’s tons to do, but because it just feels right.
