„Lokalita je veľmi nešťastná. Prostredie kaštieľa je veľmi pekné, upravené. Toto miesto som navštívil kvôli Aponiovskej knižnici. Napriek tomu, že knižnica je vskutku impozantná, vstupné za prehliadku je neprimerane vysoké (6 EUR) a o osobe sprievodcu nemôžem povedať nič pozitívne. Kvôli situácii na ceste sme meškali 5 minút. Okrem nás dvoch tam bola jedna trojčlenná rodina. Speivodca bol veľmi netolerantný a netrpezlivý. Výklad má naučený od A po Z a okrem toho, čo som sa dočítal na stránke, som sa okrem 3 maličkostí nedozvedel nič nové. Na otázky návštevníkov odpovedal mimoriadne nevhodne. Vinou sprievodcu bol zážitok z knižnice veľmi nízky. Veľká škoda, keďže som mal od tohto miesta väčšie očakávania. “

„Dňa 4.júna 2021 členovia MO Matice slovenskej zo Slovenského Grobu navštívili v rámci svojho poznávacieho zájazdu nádherne zrenovovaný kaštieľ v Oponiciach. V prvom rade nás milo prekvapil precízne udržiavaný rozsiahly areál a potom prekrásny interiér s množstvom vzácnych kníh a pútavé rozprávanie sprievodcu. Ďakujeme za pekný kultúrny a oddychový zážitok.“

„V sobotu 4.júla sme boli na výlet v Oponiciach. Veľmi milo nás prekvapila pani v knižnici, ktorá nám dala veľmi zaujímavý a pútavý výklad o histórií kaštieľa, knižnice a živote majiteľov kaštieľa.Nádherná kultúrna pamiatka,veľmi málo známa a ponúkaná.
Rodina Ďurišová a Stopperová.“
