Dear guests,
The time has come. Tomorrow, on Saturday, 6 December 2025, Saint Nicholas will visit us for the first time with his entire entourage, including angels and Krampus. Have you already managed to record your children's misdemeanours or good deeds in the book of sins? You can still do so today, so that Saint Nicholas, the devils and angels can read something to the naughty and nice little ones. The voluntary admission fee will be used to cover the travel expenses of the devils, Saint Nicholas and the angels, because it is a long way to us from both hell and heaven. We cordially invite you and look forward to seeing the whole Saint Nicholas troupe, you and your children.

At the same time, our charity stand for Honzík Šána from Hradiště near Nová Bystřice will open next to our punch stand this weekend. Honzík, now 18, suffered a severe brain infection as a newborn, leaving him severely mentally disabled, unable to sit up or care for himself, and requiring constant care. In 2023, our guests donated CZK 23,266 to little Julinka from N. Bystřice, and in 2024, they donated CZK 35,562 to Vojtěch Opelka, also from N. Bystřice. This year's collection for Honzík Šána has already been supported by visitors to our 1st Wood Carving Symposium, which was organised at the Waldhotel Peršlák in cooperation with Waldviertel Exklusiv from Heidenrechstein, with a contribution of CZK 15,000. Our campaign, with which his parents would like to buy a special mattress for Honzík, will run until 6 January 2026. Come by and support this good cause by buying a small item at our stand.

Monday, 8 December 2025, is a public holiday in Austria, the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary. It is one of the three most important Marian feasts in the Catholic liturgical calendar.


This coming weekend, the Peršláker Bear promises to wake up from hibernation. Since he loves occasional attention, he will set his alarm clock and rush over to us to have his photo taken with anyone interested on Saturday and Sunday, 13th and 14th December, from 11:30 a.m. onwards. Take advantage of this opportunity and come by to see our bear. The brave ones can even pet him.

Unfortunately, our capacity in the outdoor dining area and restaurant is limited, so we kindly ask you to reserve a table by telephone on +420 384 386 505.

We offer school pupils and students from Neubistritz and the surrounding area the opportunity to work part-time in our restaurant or hotel. Mainly at weekends, but also during the holidays. The minimum hourly wage is 180 koruna and meals during shifts are free. We are looking for reliable and committed people who enjoy working in the catering industry and interacting with people. Are you no longer studying and would like to earn some extra money working in the catering industry? Get in touch with us, we would love to meet you.

PS: Our restaurant is open 7 days a week, every day from 11:30 a.m. Of course, you can also order from our entire menu.

Kind regards,

Dear guests,
Winter is just around the corner, we've already had the first snowfall of the year, and now the frosty days are beginning. But here at the Waldhotel Peršlák restaurant, it's nice and warm. Just imagine: the fire is blazing in the fireplace, you're making yourself comfortable on our cosy sofa, holding a fragrant mulled wine, punch, coffee or hot chocolate in your hand. In an atmosphere like this, winter will fly by.
What's more, you can reach us via the newly repaired road, which you no longer have to imagine, because it has already become a reality. Have you tried it yet? How do you like the drive to us? We look forward to your feedback.

Dear guests,
Today marks the start of a long weekend in Czechia, as Monday, 17 November 2025, is a public holiday, the Day of the Fight for Freedom and Democracy. Two significant events are associated with this date. The first took place in 1939, when Czech universities and student dormitories were closed and many students were arrested, some even executed. This happened shortly after the funeral of Jan Opletal, who had been fatally injured during an anti-Nazi protest on 28 October 1939. The second event is remembered by many of us as the peaceful student march on Národní třída in Prague in 1989 was violently suppressed, marking the beginning of the so-called ‘Velvet Revolution’ that led to the fall of the communist regime. Thanks to this event, we can not only travel around the world, but also visit the beautiful nature of the border region without restrictions. And it was the first step towards transforming the border guard barracks into the Peršlák Forest Hotel. Come and join us to celebrate this important day.

We would also like to remind you of the launch of the book Landštejnské legendy (Legends of Landštejn), which will take place this Sunday, 16 November 2025, at 3 p.m. at our hotel, with the participation of the author Josef Gušlbauer and guests of honour, actor Dušan Sitka and the Swing Trio music group. The book will of course be available for purchase, and you can have Mr Gušlbauer sign it or write a dedication.

We have arranged with Saint Nicholas that he will visit us on Saturday, 6 December 2025, with his entire entourage, including angels and devils. For anyone interested, we will open the Book of Sins, from which Nicholas, devils or angels will read out the misdemeanours of the naughty children.

Dear guests,
Our first international wood carving symposium has come to a successful end. Last weekend was very eventful. The artists worked diligently with their chainsaws and earned the admiration of almost 2,000 visitors. All of the artworks that were auctioned off after the speed carving found buyers, and many of the sculptures that were brought along and created here also found new owners. An art symposium sounds wonderful, but of course it also has to make economic sense for everyone involved. Thanks to our visitors, we succeeded in doing just that.

Yesterday, repair work began on the access road to our premises. Today, on 7 November 2025, new asphalt will be laid on the worst sections, which is why the restaurant and hotel will remain closed for the entire day. We will be open again from tomorrow, Saturday, 8 November 2025, and look forward to welcoming you. Come by and see how the partial renovation of the access road has turned out.

Until the end of November, you can enjoy goose or duck dishes, which we will be happy to prepare for you. We kindly request that you make your reservation 24 hours in advance. Thank you very much.

Artists with their chainsaws are coming to us from all over the world, from Ecuador, the USA, Germany, Slovenia, etc. Today is all about preparations. From Saturday, 1 November 2025, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sunday, 2 November 2025, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., 19 masters will be creating their new works, and you can be there to watch them at work and admire their creations.

Admission is voluntary, and your contributions will help two children from Czechia and Austria. Come by and who knows, maybe you will like one of the wooden sculptures so much that you will want to take it home with you. We cordially invite you all.

Following this major event, we will be closed on Monday, 3 November 2025, and Tuesday, 4 November 2025. On Wednesday, 5 November 2025, there will be no electricity in Nový Vojířov all day due to work on the power line, which is why we will also be closed on that day. From Thursday, 6 November 2025, we look forward to seeing you again.

Until the end of November, you can treat yourself to goose or duck, which we will be happy to roast for you. All you need to do is order at least 24 hours in advance.
