We had a wonderful time at the Jested hotel. The “comfort” room was comfortable enough and the food was delicious! Plenty of vegetarian options in the lunch and the dinner menu. The breakfast buffet was delicious as well.
- Would be nice if bath robes and slippers were provided :)

I'm not rating the hotel. My feedback is about the lack of understanding from the hotel staff. Due to a tough flood situation, I had sent the request for canceling my reservation( reservation for one night). It was a few days prior my arrive. During that time the situation of flood in some part of Czech Republic and Poland wasn't still clear enough and the traveling was quite difficulty in some points. That was unexpected and hard situation for many people. The hotel staff refused of my request and wanted charged me 100% of canceling my reservation if so. In any other situation, the refusal would have been understandable to me and non-negotiable. As the owner of the tourist property, that hotel's replay was  incomprehensible. It seems that greed took over the understanding of the extraordinary situation over which, as a guest, I had no effect on it . Ultimately, after checking the authorities information both Polish and Czech, I had decided not to come to this hotel. Some of roads which I could to reach that place had been impassable or required complicated detours.

Hiked to see the Jested Tower up close, it was ok, but the view was totally worth hiking up 470 meters.
This giant sculpture is a television transmitter on top of Mount Ještěd near Liberec in the Czech Republic. Measuring 94 m (308 ft), it is made of reinforced concrete shaped in a "hyperboloid" form. The tower was designed by architect Karel Hubáček,[1] who was assisted by Zdeněk Patrman, involved in building statics, and by Otakar Binar, who designed the interior furnishing. It took the team three years to finalize the structure design (1963–1966). The construction itself took seven years to finish (1966–1973).

Ještěd Tower, designed by architect Karel Hubáček, was completed in 1973. It serves as a television transmitter, hotel, and restaurant, and is a national cultural monument.

The Remarkable History of Ještěd Tower in Liberec Czechia.

Perched atop the scenic Mount Ještěd near the city of Liberec in Czechia, Ještěd Tower stands as a striking testament to innovative architecture and visionary design. Completed in 1973, this iconic structure uniquely combines a television transmitter, a hotel, and a restaurant, making it a multifaceted landmark beloved by locals and travelers alike.

Early History and Architectural Breakthrough

The story of Ještěd Tower begins in 1963 when the original hotel on the mountain tragically burned down. Determined to create a new symbol for the region, construction on the current tower started in 1966. The design was led by celebrated architect Karel Hubáček, who carefully crafted a hyperboloid structure using reinforced concrete. This futuristic form was not only functional but also visually stunning, embodying space-age aesthetics that still captivate visitors today.

After seven years of dedicated construction, Ještěd Tower was officially completed and opened to the public in 1973. The building not only serves as a vital television transmitter but also houses a hotel and restaurant, making it a unique destination for visitors who want to enjoy breathtaking panoramic views alongside exceptional amenities. Its futuristic design quickly made it an architectural icon in the Czech Republic.

The cultural and architectural value of Ještěd Tower was formally acknowledged in 1998 when it was declared a national cultural monument of Czechia. This status helps protect the tower's legacy for future generations. Further elevating its prestige, the tower was added to the Tentative List of UNESCO World Heritage sites in 2006, highlighting its international significance as a masterpiece of modern architecture and engineering.

Today, Ještěd Tower is much more than just a transmission facility; it is a destination that combines adventure, comfort, and history. Visitors can hike or drive up Mount Ještěd to experience spectacular views of Liberec and the surrounding landscape, dine in a restaurant with unique décor, or stay overnight in one of its distinctive hotel rooms. This melding of function and form, combined with its rich history and cultural significance, makes Ještěd Tower a must-visit landmark for architecture lovers, nature enthusiasts, and curious travelers alike.
