What guests say
8 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 315 guest reviews
The Hungry Trout Resort earns consistent praise for its outstanding location beside the river, quiet surroundings, and solid value — particularly for fishing enthusiasts who return year after year. However, the property is showing its age, with recurring complaints about dated and occasionally poorly maintained rooms, no in-room breakfast or microwave options, and minor but frustrating issues like broken TVs and a closed pool. Guests who prioritise location and nature over polished amenities tend to leave satisfied, while those expecting a well-appointed, fully serviced resort may be disappointed.
