Also known as *Stražilovo*, it houses revered relics and features beautiful frescoes and a tranquil courtyard, providing a profound sense of peace and history.
- Fruška Gora National Park: The hotel’s greatest asset is its proximity to this lush, rolling national park—your gateway is literally at the doorstep. For hiking, cycling (rentals available at the hotel), wine tasting at local vineyards, or simply enjoying panoramic views, the park is a natural playground. Key trails and viewpoints are accessible within a 5-10 minute drive from the property.
