D1 Hotel & Restaurant

At first glance, a modern hotel and restaurant by D1 highway may sound like a quick stop, but there is much more to it than that. This family business, operating since 2018, combines a hotel, truck pub, and restaurant. The imaginative interior is inspired by highways and cars, but it is not kitschy. The walls are decorated with paintings made from tire treads, a halved Barkas truck instead of a classic painting, and other playful details. All together, it creates an original yet tasteful environment. The D1 theme is sensitively present, unobtrusive, and gives the restaurant a clear identity. The menu is simple, tempting, and has several very successful moments. The burrata with pesto and dressing was perfectly seasoned and the portion was generous. The cream soup with dill, potatoes and porcini mushrooms and a 63-degree egg was impressive in its presentation, the Starobrno goulash was a satisfying classic, and the pikeperch fillet with caponata shows that even near the highway, it is possible to cook with ambition. The wine list is a big draw – rich and carefully compiled from small European wineries. Combined with a professional approach and a family atmosphere, this place is a pleasant stop not only when traveling.
