Penzion Panorama

We stayed at Penzion Panorama and the end of September 2016 for a couple of days while touring around Mikulov and the region, and I'm so glad we did. The penzion was a bit of a walk outside the center (maybe 10-15 minutes) but was worth every step. The backyard was an excellent hangout area with a bar, picnic tables, a covered pool, and a mini zoo that had sheep, guinea pigs, the largest chinchillas i've ever seen, gerbils, rabbits, and kangaroos. The animals were obviously well loved by the husband-wife owners. After spending the day in town, my friend and I returned to the penzion and joined many of the other guests out back. The male owner was working the bar and pouring (very healthy pours) one of the best sauvignon blancs I've ever tasted. He would also bring around some shots of local flavored vodka every once in a while (on the house!). Every so often he would wander off to feed the sheep and rabbits and let them roam about the yard. He was happy and relaxed and you could tell he loved what he was doing very much; it certainly showed in the property and his generosity. We met some of the other guests and it was a great finish to the night. The rooms and bathrooms were clean and attractive, and the downstairs breakfast area was decorated like an old Prague beerhall. Mikulov was the highlight of our time in Czech Republic, and a large part of this was due to the friendly owners at this penzion.
