Hotel Zajazd Pasymowski, a roadside inn in the forest
Hotel Zajazd Pasymowski is a forest-side hotel with a restaurant in Uniszki-Cegielnia, near Mława in Poland. It has a sauna, gym and games room, and guests rate it 4.2 on Google. I'd pick it for a stopover by car, if you value big portions over modern rooms.

Where Hotel Zajazd Pasymowski is and how to get there
Hotel Zajazd Pasymowski stands in Uniszki-Cegielnia, a small spot near Mława in the Mazovia region of Poland. The address is Uniszki-Cegielnia 31. It is surrounded by trees, and one guest says it is practically in the forest.
It sits by the national road DK 7, which is also the international E 77, so it works well if you are driving through. One guest describes the car park as a handy place to rest, with covered seating and tables in the green before the next stretch of road. Parking is on site, which is useful for any road trip.
If you fly in, the description mentions Olsztyn-Mazury airport as the nearest one, but you will want a car either way.
What the rooms and facilities are like
The hotel is a three-storey building with a garden, and the old description compares it to a three-star guesthouse. Rooms come with fresh linen and towels. Opinions on size vary, which is worth knowing before you book.
- Some rooms are small. One guest staying alone says the room was not big but clean, which is what matters most to them.
- Others are spacious. A guest praises large double rooms with comfortable beds.
- The recreation area has a fitness centre, a sauna and a games room with billiards and table tennis.
The reception works round the clock and speaks Polish, English and German. A guest also says you can ask to eat in your room.
The restaurant is the main reason to stop
Most of the praise goes to the kitchen. Guests talk about fresh food, very large portions and low prices for what you get. Dishes named in the reviews include beef tartare, pork tenderloin with dumplings, fish, duck and beef cheeks.
Several guests say they come back just for the restaurant. Staff are described as friendly and quick. If you are travelling as a family or a small group, this makes the hotel easy to recommend for a meal alone.
What guests say
Hotel Zajazd Pasymowski has 4.2 on Google from 448 reviews. That is a good score for a place with such a mix of opinions.
Most reviews are warm. People mention food, the helpful staff, the clean rooms and the peaceful setting among the trees. A few add that the place does not make a huge impression, but is worth a stop.
The criticism is sharper, though. One guest calls the building old and under-invested, and complains of a stuffy room with no air conditioning. Another says the food was reheated or made from ready-made ingredients, and an older review found the duck dry and the sauce too sweet. So the kitchen divides opinion a little, even if most people love it.
What to know before you book
This is where I'd be honest. The hotel is better as a good meal and a bed than as a modern stay.
| What works | What to keep in mind |
|---|---|
| Big, fresh portions at the restaurant | A few guests found the food reheated |
| Clean rooms and friendly staff | Rooms can be small and the building feels dated |
| Sauna, gym, billiards and table tennis | No air conditioning mentioned by one guest |
| Quiet forest setting | Mosquitoes in summer, according to a guest |
If you are sensitive to heat or insects, ask about your room first.
Who it suits and what is nearby
I'd choose Hotel Zajazd Pasymowski for a stopover on the road, a hearty dinner, or a quiet night after a long drive. Business travellers and families who value food over design will be fine here. If you want a polished, modern room, look elsewhere.
The forest around the hotel is good for fresh air and a short walk. For something different in another region, there is Spa Apartments Lidzbark Mazury in Lidzbark. I can only give you its name and town, as I do not have its details.
Passionate about travel and about the kind of places that turn a getaway into something unforgettable. I love writing about hotels, country houses and charming hideaways, helping every traveller find the perfect place to rest and feel at home.
