Hotel in Kostelany amid the Chřiby Forests and Monuments

Kostelany lies on the northeastern foothills of the Chřiby range and is surrounded by forests on three sides. As a result, a wooded landscape, open views, and individual historical sites come together here within a small area. This contrast is particularly clear when looking from Kostelany across the open landscape to the northeast: from there, Hostýn can be seen.

Nature and Trails

The Chřiby forests around Kostelany offer opportunities for walks and more demanding hikes. A specific starting point is the bus stop in Kostelany, where the Kolem Kostelan trail begins. Among other sights, the trail passes a bridge of the unfinished Baťa motorway. This dates from around the turn of the 1930s and 1940s and connects the route with a notable construction project from that era.

Horses and Riding

Another option in Kostelany is Ranč Kostelany. From there, accompanied by an experienced instructor, visitors can go on horseback rides into the countryside around the ranch. Children aged 3 to 8 can receive instruction from an instructor in riding as well as grooming, saddling, and leading horses. The offering therefore includes both riding itself and the practical activities involved in handling horses.

Culture

One of the town’s historical landmarks is the sandstone reconciliation cross. It is considered the oldest surviving monument in Kostelany and probably dates from the first half of the 17th century. It stands in the forest below Kameňák, next to Klimešova studánka and above the Kudlovický potok stream. Its location both describes the monument as part of the wooded surroundings and places it precisely within the landscape.

A Memorial in the Town

The T. G. Masaryk Monument stands in a small park in the upper part of Kostelany. It was made and unveiled in 1938. After being restored, it was ceremonially unveiled again on 26 August 1945. The history of the statue also reaches back to the period of Nazi rule: residents of Kostelany preserved the damaged T. Masaryk statue after the Nazis ordered its removal.

Anyone comparing hotels for a stay in Kostelany can first review the individual offers according to clear criteria. On the individual offer pages, the exact location, the stated accommodation type, and the intended occupancy are relevant. In addition, included services, the individual price components, and the booking and cancellation conditions can be compared. Reviewing these points keeps the differences between the offers clear and traceable. Details about rooms or units should also be checked directly in the respective offer, as should the terms stated there. This keeps the specific characteristics of the compared offers separate from one another and prevents them from being supplemented by general expectations.
