Qubus Hotel Zielona Gora

Excellent hotel for three stars… breakfast was one of the best I have had in Polen.. Staff are helpful, and friendly, room was clean and comfortable…proximity to city, parking one the property…. The price point was really good.. My husband really enjoyed staying here..

Unfortunately, my wife and I visited this place. We were encouraged by the photos of the dishes. The 5-star review was probably written by the owner himself, because I don't believe that anyone with knowledge of cooking could do it. We ordered: 1. Tomato cream 2. Carpaccio 3. Tenderloins 4. Burger After reading the menu, my wife warned me that I probably shouldn't expect good food in a place where the chef writes "hamburger" on the menu for a dish supposedly containing Angus beef, but well, a hungry man doesn't think, so I didn't listen. I will summarize in points because I don't feel like exercising my brain to describe this place: 0. Chocolate ice cream - watermelon + feta. Honestly, quite an "original" combination of flavors, especially without any additional spices and sauces. It doesn't fit together at all. If you don't have the ability to combine flavors, it's better to serve warm bread with flavored butter (you have to have it, but more on that in a moment) 1. I didn't get the tomato cream at all because the waiter forgot or didn't hear my order (actually, it's a good thing, because I don't think I missed anything special. 2. The carpaccio did not contain the declared olive oil, but there was definitely an excess of balsamic vinegar (of very poor quality). For the hot roll served with the appetizer, we received a butter-like product, not butter. 3. The tenderloin and the additions to the dish were simply tasteless. 4. The burger (sorry, according to the chef: "hamburger") looked the best of all, but unfortunately the taste couldn't keep up with it. Maybe he watched Angus beef on TV, because the meat it was made of wasn't even next to it. The meat is ground, compact, well-done, instead of the declared medium, and completely tasteless. The bun is hard and dense, certainly not suitable for a burger. The only positive aspects are the fries and a quite good burger salad. At the end, the waiter came to ask how our dishes were. I expressed my opinion (in a shortened version) and he left, stating that he would convey it in the kitchen. He went, came back, brought a bill for PLN 200 for these "pleasures". No feedback, no comment. Let everyone draw their own conclusions. Edit of November 21, 2023 - I just came across information that Google has blocked my opinion because it allegedly violates their rules. Embarrassing.

The location of the hotel is excellent, on the top of a small hill, beside a park, and within walking distance to the city centre and a shopping mall. Silent rooms, well cleaned, nice beds although they are on the softer side. There is a guarded parking but it is not necessay since the area seems to be very safe. Top breakfast with a large variety of options. Some local products. Staff is frendly, but a smile now a and then would cheer everyone up a bit.
