Services like the airport shuttle and self-parking also incur additional fees.

Super cute hotel in the best location with an amazing view - we were lucky to get one of the top floor rooms. The room was really lovely, nice interior design and very clean - same goes for the whole building. The service team was always nice and helpful.

Great and very clean boutique hotel with friendly staff. Ideal location for city break. My only negatives would be - Some items at Breakfast were not replenished from 8.30am which I think is poor given breakfast goes till 10am. Breakfast staff also seemed a bit agitated at times. - TVs in rooms were dated and most channels didn’t work. Worth knowing - You cannot park at the hotel. It is a 5 minu...

Fantastic hotel! I arrived to a friendly welcome and was offered a secure area to keep my bag before check-in time. Furthermore, I was able to access my room two hours earlier than expected. Glad of that when my journey started at 02:30! The room itself was extremely clean, comfortable and lots of room for me on my own. One of the best breakfasts I've had in a hotel too. Really can't find any fa...

Clean, comfortable and well kept Hotel in a great location. Staff were all friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was very tasty with a lot of options. Bed was comfortable and room was a good side even for a seal room. Nice bathroom. Lots of bars/restaurants and shops in the area. Only issue was heat/cool control. Could adjust the temp in the room.

Perfect location in old town. Staff are extremely helpful and professional. They truly made us feel like we were coming home each time we walked through the door. Rooms feel luxurious with very high end details. Breakfast is probably the best experience in Slovenia. Coffee is actually brewed and not from a machine thank goodness. Staff quickly take orders for specialty coffees if requested. Epic s...
