About pension

Pension Ametyst is a small family pension suitable for people seeking comfort, quality, peacefulness, and relaxation. Our non smoking environment is strictly enforced.

Our historical ground floor building from the classical period (although the main part of the house was built much sooner and has walls which measure beyond two meters in width) was enlarged in 1907 and served as a luxurious residence to a local factory owner. Between the years of 1997 and 2002 the building underwent total reconstruction and was prepared to be run as a pension.

Our pension is perfectly located both to access the town as well as to relax in the serenity of the garden.

The front of our building faces Latran Street, which is the main street of the town, full of café’s, shops, restaurants and pubs. It runs through the entire town and also leads to the main entrance of the Cesky Krumlov Castle. The back of the building faces our garden. From the garden guests can enjoy the peaceful natural surroundings which include spectacular views of the castle.

The ground floor consists of small shops, the pension office, the main door, and access to the pension garden. The garden is a peaceful sunlit oasis where guests can relax, read, and enjoy. Private rooms are located on the first floor and in the attic of our historical building.
