    Excellent stay at this beautiful hotel. Rooms are spacious and soundproof, so you don’t hear other guests. Windows have mosquito nets. There is a lake within a walking distance where you can go for a swim. Breakfast was excellent. Staff was very professional.

    The only suggestion would be that pillows could be thicker to provide more support and darker shades / curtains for better sleep could be installed.

    Very clean, fresh, spacious and nicely decorated rooms! Lots of fresh air, no noise pollution and air condition, easy access for stroller, as we travelled with 2 month old child. Baby cot was also provided. We enjoyed the spa and massages at the main resort facility, transfer was provided. Masseurs were very professional, good technique! Both restaurants at the main resort (European cuisine) and Silene Spa resort Egle (Italian restaurant) were fantastic! Great variety, quality and service! Staff was very professional and accommodating! Exquisite views!

    There is nothing to do around in a walking distance. Hotel surroundings could be more private, because you can see village neighbours clearly, there are no high fence or hedges.

    Hotel is the quiet village. Rooms are very nicely decorated, cosy. Restaurant is amazing - food is great, oriented to Italian cuisine, everything is so fresh and tasty. Breakfast was also very delicious.

    This is an overlap facility for the main resort, situated some ways away from the central resort (driving or a shuttle is necessary). Egles Villa provides for all the basic necessities - a bed, a restaurant and a very decent breakfast. No major attractions in the surrounding village.

    Bed mattress was hard, reception lady was very nice, but didn’t give the information about SPA, that we asked and she said she will get back to us. Prosciutto pizza was not tasty at all and overpriced for this region.

    Room was pretty and clean, breakfast were great and full! We got two coffees both and it was for free. Very beautiful surroundings.

    Not a cheap weekend getaway, but with Daugavpils-Latgalian specific service. :)

    Upon arrival, we learned that both restaurants that are there - host weddings. And no one can feed us, come back later. The only option is to go to the store and buy yourself something to eat. A great option - isn't it? Arriving at the Spa at the time of reservation, we had to wait 15 minutes. Since the visitors before us took a very long time to change their clothes and dry their hair. But according to the usual tradition - our visiting time ended on time, as the next visitors arrived. :) The cleanliness of the spa area leaves much to be desired. This is, of course, the fault of the visitors, since it is clear that they use the same shoes in which they came from the street and do not want to wash properly in the shower. But the staff's job is to keep an eye on it and clean it up. There is clearly not enough staff. The employee is both a massage therapist and an administrator. (The worker is good, but he physically cannot do everything on time). When we were finally able to get into the restaurant - (after 21, having reserved a table in advance) - we learned that we could only eat outside on the terrace, because there was still a wedding going on in the restaurant. (when we reserved a table, they forgot to warn us about this). Therefore, after visiting the spa (after the sauna and with a wet head), we had to enjoy a late dinner in the cool September air. :( The waitress tried very hard to somehow rectify this situation (she was great), but she had to start by listing a long list of dishes and drinks that had run out. The food was brought quite quickly, which rather indicates a large amount of food had been prepared earlier. Since the pizza (which cannot be prepared in advance) was served last, after the meat dishes. But the food was delicious - thanks to the chefs for that. In the morning, we spent a long time looking for personnel who could tell us exactly how much we need to pay for visiting the spa.

    In this region, this is actually one of the best SPA centers (but when you have no competitors, you begin to relax). And the nature around the Spa Center is very beautiful (but this is not their merit). There is an Italian wine shop next to the hotel. Sommelier Alexander is the best employee with whom we had the opportunity to communicate during these two days. He contributed at least 50% of our positive mood this weekend. Great breakfast. I really liked the hotel’s creative approach to increasing its own booking rating. If you look at the reviews, you will see Victor, who this summer alone left more than 10 reviews out of 10 without any comments...apparently a loyal regular visitor. :)

    Both restaurants were not serving guests as they had a wedding to cater to, no alternative was offered. The spa had to be booked well ahead and the TV was not English operational. Abit sorry we stayed here.

    Breakfast was the best of our stay.

    I couldn`t understand that is two different areas from webpage EGLE and SIlene. Without a car, no chance to be there.

    Brekfast was assome, however if I have to stay longer, it can be challenging to choose from.

    Okay accommodation, excellent (if expensive) restaurant and an interesting part of the country.

    The on-site Italian restaurant was closed for the first two days of our stay giving us basically no choice but to eat at the expensive resort restaurant. It was only when we were actually on the way to the hotel that we were told the on site restaurant would be closed. We had a very mixed experience at the restaurant - the food was good but the first night we had to wait more than an hour for a very simple selection of dishes: Caesar salad, Soup of the day and two children's portions of pasta. Clearly the waitress forgot to place our order. When I asked what was happening it arrived quickly but had obviously been done in a hurry (the chicken in the Caesar salad was undercooked). In fairness the more senior waiting staff did apologise and give us complimentary dessert, which in fact turned out to be the best part of the meal. The second time we went there we had no problems and an excellent meal, probably because the head waiter took care of us and extra effort was being made. As regards the hotel itself, I don't understand how it merits a four-star rating. In my opinion it should be three star. Despite it being high season (mid August) the whole place felt like it was just being dusted off. There was only one hanger in the wardrobe, so I asked for some more. The TV channels didn't work properly. The helpful receptionist came and tuned the TVs for us while some unknown (and unmasked) man stood in the doorway. I assume he was some sort of manager? He didn't bother to explain his presence. Similarly at the 'resort' we hired bicycles to ride around through the local forest. We must have been the only people to do so for a long time as the tires were flat and the brake and gear cables rusty. I guess the place had been shuttered during Covid, but as it was still not operating 100% I think the prices being charged should have been considerably lower to take account of this. The photos make the room look more impressive than they are.

    It does at least offer some decent accommodation in a region that is short on better-quality offerings, but this is a slightly strange place, with the bulk of the roooms some 5 km away from the 'resort' part by the lakeside. The staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast is good - and even more so if you take it at the lakeside restaurant. The wine list at the lakeside restaurant is excellent - whoever put it together knew what they were doing, and the atmosphere there is enjoyably grown up (mellow jazz from the speakers instead of annoying pop). One good thing about the accommodation being in the village - a short walk away, across the school playing field is an excellent public swimming spot in the lake. In fact it is better than the swimming spot at the private resort. Daugavpils and Krāslava both make excellent day trips from here and the forests are good for mushrooming and berry picking.
