There are two hotels near the lake:
Patria, were there three times, the hotel is super, with a kitchen
www.hotelpatria.sk/
Kempinski
http://www.kempinski.com/en/hightatras/Pages/Welcome.aspx
Patria is closer from the ski lifts.
There are no thermal springs and mineral waters in Strbske itself, you have to go.
We were there only in the winter, so I can’t say for sure about the summer, but judging by the fact that I watched Strebsky on webcams, the lifts do not work in the summer.
Regarding how to get to Uzhgorod, write where you plan to go from.

From Uzhgorod to Strebsko.
Options are either by train to Poprad from Kyiv, and then a taxi (?). How many taxis?
Or by train to Uzhgorod, and then? What are the options?
There are questions about the Patria hotel, what procedures are there (such as massages, body wraps ...). how did you like it?

And more about Patria. I take it there's a buffet? Did you take dinners and how do you like them. What time is dinner served?
In Patria, one travel agency has already given me a calculated tour - I was pleased with the price and date of arrival, so now we are thinking about the option of a package tour to this hotel.
Will there be something for vegetarians to eat?

We traveled by train to Uzhgorod, and there the transfer took us to Shtrebsky (package tour). I know that there is a company in Uzhgorod that specializes in transportation to Europe. I had a business card somewhere, if I find it, I'll write it.
Patria has a very cool wellness center, a large indoor pool, massages, I don’t know about body wraps, I won’t lie. The hotel also has a bowling alley, a restaurant, two bars, a wine cellar. There is a kolyba on the shore of the lake (a separate building). Very good service at the hotel. The hotel is fully consistent with European 4 *. Kempinski, of course, is pretentious and super-duper, but the price is exorbitant. And in Patria, prices are quite reasonable, especially in summer it is cheaper there.

I know that there are dinners there (that is, you can take them along with the tour), but we didn’t take them, because. we like to go there to eat in different places, we like to walk in the evening on the snow, but sometimes we ate dinner at the hotel from the menu. I would not advise taking dinners, it is better to order what you want on the spot, it will not become more expensive in total. The guys who took dinner in advance were resting with us, so when on the last day we took them to the hut, they regretted that they didn’t go to different places - everything is close there. The breakfasts are a buffet, quite decent, we ate all the skiing.
I won’t say about vegetarianism, I’m not one, but the choice of dishes is absolutely sufficient (I remember that there were all kinds of salads, dishes from pasta, cereals, mushrooms, etc.), I think you’ll choose something.

Thanks for such a detailed answer.
My husband's parents will go - they are hardened, very economical and will not go to restaurants 100%. It would be better for them to include food in the tour so that it does not turn into aimless savings and the search for familiar dishes. They eat things that, I'm afraid, no restaurant will cook (lentils, tofu, flax seeds, some cereals in the husk ...). Therefore, I wanted to initially stop at the apartments and let them cook what they want. This option is really ideal.
But I really liked Patria's offer, and if dinner is also in buffet format, then it would be just perfect. Kolyba etc. they are definitely not interested. These are so harsh ;-)

And in that "Kolyba", which is on the shore and which is from the Patria hotel, there is a separate menu and separate orders. Or is there breakfast/dinner?

Then it's clear.
There are also private apartments in Strbske where you can cook, but they are not on the lake, and the shops there are such that they may not find what you wrote.

They will take their seeds and other things with them)))))))))
It’s just that if we pay them breakfast and dinner, they will most likely pick up all sorts of salads, vegetables, fruits, and some cereals. And they will not look for something that is simply not there. And if we don’t pay for their food, they won’t go to a restaurant, but will brew something in a thermos, invent all sorts of tricks with a boiler ...
It's useless to explain anything. We try not to argue with them.

And rightly so, well done. Good luck! There will be questions, ask.
By the way, massages are not paid in advance, so it’s not a fact that they themselves will pay for them. The wellness center can be paid for in advance.

The main thing is to explain to parents that the food has already been paid, and that you need to eat more to justify the costs.

If this is a continuation of the theme of parents' relaxation, then Tatranska Lomnica (the view of the mountains is wonderful) and a holiday at the base of the Novy Smokovec resort could definitely become an attractive vacation offer.
They have special offers for the summer period, a pleasant atmosphere, the rooms are definitely more spacious than in Patria and, unlike the hotel, they have a "strong" medical base.
Knock through Google to the Slovak company Esprit travel (Jana Obertova) - she represents the interests of this resort in the Ukrainian market.
The alternative is always better than the best, but the only choice.
Travel to Poprad by train from Kyiv is comfortable (without transfers), and from Poprad - 12 km, the transfer will cost approximately the same amount as travel to Uzhgorod and an individual. transfer to Slovakia.

We were in those parts in June last year: green, beautiful, but humid (rainy at night).
A windbreaker rain cape for walking and a sweater are a must. And warm socks - fresh in the evenings.
The lifts from the Tatra Lomnica are working (type in Google the words Lanovky Slovensko - you will go to the site of cable cars and lifts).
In the summer there are promotions for family packages, for the elderly, for young people ...
From Štrbské Pleso to Tatranska Lomnica there is a panoramic train with a wide view.
There are not many tourists at this time, but on the marked trails you meet quite often the same active and indefatigable;)) We climbed Skalnate pleso (it is at an altitude of just over 1700 m), and from there along the path we went out approximately to Strbske Lake.
There are other interesting routes, not to mention the exploration of the surroundings to the east of the Tatras (Levocha, Spissky Grad) and to the west (Liptovsky Mikulas). Do not forget about Poprad itself - the AquaCity complex is wonderful there: thermal water in the pools, a lot of fun on the water, steam baths and more ...
If your parents are not strict vegetarians, Liptov cheeses are a great part of their diet. No worse than the Swiss from the mountain pastures. Tried both those and others - worthy of praise.

As an alternative, Bardeev could also be suggested, especially since there are springs and balneological treatment there (which was also asked about). But the question sounded specifically about Strebsky, moreover, on the shore of the lake.

Yes, Bardeev is a worthy place. At the same time, one of the conditions was the possibility of combining recreation ON THE BACKGROUND OF THE MOUNTAINS and recovery.
Strbske - Nowy Smokovec - Tatranska Lomnica are located on the same railway line along the High Tatras within half an hour between the 2 most remote points.
Hence - the "middle" proposal for Smokovec (as a good option for VALUE for MONEY) and Tatranska Lomnica as the resort closest to the ski lifts with a developed infrastructure.

Thank you! I read about Novy Smokovec. Interestingly, the map also seems to be under the mountains.
And Bardeev, it seems, is already far from the rocks. There are mountains, like the Carpathian, and even lower, and the point is there in the baths (as I understand it).
It's just that when choosing "low mountains" I would rather stop at Geneva in Truskavets or the Ark in the Bukovina Carpathians.
Now I'm actively "digging" around everything near the High Tatras. I have not decided yet, but so far Patria is the most interesting, although there is no kitchen there.
And the apartments in Slovakia are somewhat modest (to put it mildly). Just a week ago I chose an apartment for myself in Bavaria, so after German houses, Slovak ones are not very perceived)))
But nature, of course, is amazing both there and there!

In Slovakia nature is great! But Smokovtsy will be worse, because of the hurricane that swept there 6 years ago and knocked down a great many trees. Consider this fact.

For HATINKA:
I am writing to you because I know this region quite well, I have been there at different times of the year - both by myself and with friends.
Patria seems interesting because stands directly above the lake, and for a long time was the best in view. hotel infrastructure in this part of the High Tatras.
Over the years, a lot of water has flowed under the bridge. there are new tours. objects - for example, Kempinsky, already mentioned in the topic by Ms. Jabetta (by the way, not the best representative of this brand - the attitude towards guests is somewhat detached, although maybe we were there in the first days after the opening).
As for the V.Tatras themselves, this is a mountain range stretching from east to west with resorts located at its foot (along the entire length of the Tatra mountain range). Along the foot of the massif, the train that I wrote about above runs: from Strbske Pleso (in the western part of the massif) to Tatranska Lomnica (in its eastern part).
I do not argue that the Germans have more respectable accommodation options, but in Slovakia, in general, the level of comfort is decent, and if they look more modest, then in terms of the quality of service and courtesy of the people working there, they are hardly inferior to the German ones.
But the prices also differ.
In a word, you received consultations, contacts - too.
Still, contact Yana - she is an expert!

Yes, but they chose an aparthotel, but expensive - almost 90 euros without promotions. There they threw off something on the action, but it's just a little bit. Hotel Crocus 4*.
Liked that there was a kitchenette.
Everything is almost good. First, they didn’t see much, mostly just walked and drove around the neighborhood a couple of times in a car. We didn’t go to the lifts, it’s scary ...
According to them, it was impossible to swim in the lake, it upset them very much.
They are happy, but I understand that they missed a lot of interesting (for me?) things. Perhaps it's for the best - age after all)))
The most annoying thing is that after learning the cost of the hotel, we were read a strict reprimand on the topic of waste))))))))))
