We stopped here for lunch after completing the tour Cerne jezero > Spicak Rozhladna > Certovo jezero and Restauracia & Hotel Karl. We ordered Sumava pocket 4x and Kulajda. The food was good. The service is a bit peculiar. The restaurant also has its own tourist stamp.

We came across this hotel during our wanderings in Šumava, we had lunch and continued on, so we cannot rate the rooms, however, the service was professional, they seated us and took care of us, although ours would have been 16 with children, the food was prepared very well and was delicious. only the potato pancakes could stand a little more love :)) however, that's just a detail, we were satisfied, it was nice to have something to eat and drink after walking down from Pancíř. 😎
