From Poprad-Tatry to Nový Smokovec
Take a direct connection from the Poprad railway station by Tatra's Electrical Railways (a mountain narrow-gauge train). The access to the platform for this train is upstairs from the hall in the railway station building. Take the trains directed to Štrbské Pleso. When you get to the station Starý Smokovec, prepare yourself for getting off at the next stop, which is Nový Smokovec (New Smokovec). After getting off, you will find yourself 50 meters from the entrance to the Atrium hotel. Timetables for the mountain train can be found here: www.jizdnirady.cz. Taxi from Poprad to Nový Smokovec A taxi from the Poprad-Tatry railway station or the airport in Poprad costs about 350 - 700 SKK (ask in advance). By Car Please note, that if you want to use highways in Slovakia, you need to have a highway-toll ticket, which can be bought at every petrol station. Moreover, because of low winter temperatures (−25°C to 10°C) and snow, you must have tires for winter season and also chains for the tires.
