Emília Vášáryová has honoured the hotel with her visit recently. A great lady and first-class actress, very popular with the Slovak and Czech audience. Her star has been shining in theatres, films and on TV for over half a century. It was the embrace of the beautiful Tatras, where one of the most romantic films of the Slovak cinematography – “The Copper Tower” was shot. Ms. Vášáryová acted there along with Štefan Kvietik. When staying at Grandhotel Starý Smokovec, she has always felt like at home and would spend Christmas there very often. She said she had been very surprised by the plans about naming suite no. 221 after her then. “When I was offered the opportunity, I was very surprised. Now I´m very happy that I accepted it,” she said. The suite is like a home far away from home for her. “It is a very pleasant, elegant, not too overstuffed and perfectly designed space with beautiful wallpapers and everything that such a suite should have,” she added.

Ms. Vášáryová is always enchanted by the beauty of the mountains. “I have been coming here regularly for fifty years and always know where to find snow. I usually spend Christmas in the Tatras. I didn´t have to get up in the morning, make the fish. We could enjoy the holiday outside. I love the stars, the sky and in the Tatras mainly at night. I always walk with my head up, admire all the beauty and when the sky is clear and all peaks can be seen, there is no need to go anywhere else. I know I can relax here, gain positive energy and if I can, exhaust my body a bit too. I used to enjoy sledging very much and there was a beautiful large ice rink near the hotel in the past. I can still remember times when Hrebienok was used for skiing. I have experienced here a lot, more and less pleasant moments but most of them very positive so I am truly happy to be here and feel fine,” she concluded.

The team of Grandhotel Starý Smokovec would like to preserve the stories of famous personalities who achieved a lot in their lives. This summer, another suite is going to be dedicated to another eminent person who has a close relationship to the hotel and the Tatras and shall be paid tribute to in this way.
