Lovely hotel on the edge of town, rooms were quiet and comfortable.
WiFi was a bit spotty/weak but otherwise a great spot for exploring Soca.

This would be a 5 star property but for the management. While the staff was great, the manager seemed to go out of his way to make things difficult. Check in was at 2:00 pm but when I arrived at 1:30, check in “was not possible.” I tried to schedule a massage (one of the amenities) but the manager said “it was not possible to do” and implied that he gave the masseuses the day off because they were overworked. I scheduled a massage the next day but was unsure of when I would get back so only scheduled 30 minutes. I got done early and when I got back to the hotel, I asked the staff if I could change from 30 minutes to 60 min. They indicated that the masseuses had availability but they needed to call the manager to confirm. When they called the manager, even though there was availability, he said “it was not possible “ to change from 30 min to 60 min. The staff was great, but unfortunately this manager seemed to go out of his way to to make things difficult and said no every chance he could. For the price you pay for the amenities, I would not recommend this hotel until there is a change in management.

Booked this for 3 nights, two rooms a long time ago.

Basic rooms that cost quite a lot.

The rooms had no windows in. The rooms had a doorset that had a window in. There was nowhere that you could sit in that room and see any view.

The room was advertised as a mountain view. Unless you left the room there was no view. When you were in bed you could only see concrete walls.

I have stayed here before. The owner seemed to think it was because i had an apartment. It was not. I have never booked anywhere, any hotel that does not have a window in a hotel room. It did not state this. There was a window in the door and doorset. This window in the door overlooked the back of a house.

The TV had to be fixed every night, no fridge.

I went onto the ABTA website to ask how to fix the problem. It said to speak to hotel and ask to leave. After one night i offered to pay and leave. The owner said covid everything was expensive and offered me a tiny studio. My husband is 6 foot 2. I honestly dont know how we would have fit in with the suitcases. I just wanted to leave and pay for what we had. The owner would not allow it.

I stayed and paid because it is our holiday. I will not be back. It was dismal. Dreadful. Like a cupboard. This beautiful valley and there was not one place you could sit with a coffee and see any view or i fact any window. I was shocked. But like the owner said ' well you paid for basic'

The staff is very nice and polite - Katrina was amazing. Hotel location is excellent with good parking.

Rooms are dated and need major renovating. House keeping needs improvement. Daily cleaning of the rooms was at a very basic level with beds not being made at all. TV in the room was of a small monitor size
Can’t fault the hotel for location and staff but definitely in need of serious renovation.

Great place to stay in Bovec!

Excellent hotel, welcomed with a very friendly face and homemade liquor to toast to the holiday. We were given a full induction to Bovec with a map upon arrival and given plenty of recommendations on how to get the most out of our time. Free parking outside and a great environment surrounding the hotel.

It was a nice hotel. We were a little upset about the marketing of it on Expedia, we were expecting access to a sauna and hot tub as marketed, when we got there we learned that you have to pay for both of those services and schedule in for the sauna. (They want 80 Euros for a hot tub session....)

It feels more like a hostel than a hotel

The property is run down and appointed not to the level one would expect of a 3-star hotel or a 120 Eur-per-night without breakfast. The ground floor rooms are particularly depressing with a view on the parking lot, dirty walls, very cheap furniture and persistent sewage smell in the bathroom. The only positives are the TV with many internatiinal channels and the quiet position. Overall disappointing and not recommended

Next!

Bovec is expensive for what you get but I definitely don’t think this hotel is worth the extra charge. For $100, plus another 12€ for breakfast + 6€ for taxes, I would recommend looking elsewhere. The room j stayed in was TINY, definitely only suitable for a solo traveler, and it had an odd setup with the sink in the main area. Not sure this works for anyone that’s a couple. Beds were okay, no extra bedding despite it being cold. There was this strange tree in the room. View of the parking lot. I walked around the entire property and not exactly sure where this view is pictured on the app. I stayed in a very large apartment the next night a block away for 20€ less and it slept four people and had Mountain View’s, a kitchen, and a proper bathroom.

Clean, tidy room with a superb view.

The rooms are more like minimalist style but the people working there are very friendly and efficient. Wonderful breakfast. We enjoyed their sauna (8euro/person)! The only thing is they did not make our room at all on the first night. As we did not need to change towels or anything (we stayed two nights), it was fine, but just odd. Over all very nice stay and great view around the hotel!

Room smelt of drains

Room smelt of drains. We’re not really complainers so we just put up with it and kept the windows / door open. But on check out when I mentioned it, the receptionist said it was a known problem and it couldn’t be fixed. Surely this can be fixed! We stayed in six different accommodations for our holiday to Slovenia and this accommodation was our least favourite and we would not return, purely because the room smelt like rotten eggs! Just some advice... it needs sorting if you want to keep your customers! On the plus side, lovely breakfast!

Recommend to all

It may not be luxury accommodation but it is such a great place to stay. Not many hotels in the Bovec area but there is no need, the service received was great by Bostian and his wife, they run the hotel themselves which shows by the level of service they give. The place is designed beautifully with inspiration from the Bovec area. Breakfast is recommended - at 12 euros - but it is delicious and the the hosts will cater certain requests.

Good well priced hotel

The hotel is in a good location for visiting the soca valley. Accommodation is clean and modern but basic - nowhere to hang towels, design means that water spills out of bathroom into room when showering etc. Breakfast was incredible - lots of delicious local produce.

Hotel lost reservation

Unfortunately, the hotel had overlooked our booking made months earlier. We arrived to be told \"We have no record of your booking\" and \"We are closed.\" However, the receptionist did find our reservation in the computer, but it had been overlooked. They made us a reservation at a nearby hotel, but we were quite dissatisfied with the situation and left the area immediately the next day rather than stay for the three nights we had booked for the the hotel. It may have been pleasant under normal circumstances. We'll never know.

Great honeymoon location

Had a great active honeymoon stay at this hotel - the setting is beautiful with an idyllic mountain view. There are plenty of outdoor activities to do in Bovec, such as rafting, kayaking, zip lining, but I suggest renting a car when visiting as public transport is very limited - as we found out the hard way!

Simple design hotel in a good location.

Only stayed one night so probably had the most simple room on the ground floor. It was very plain ( as expected from a modern hotel) but with the most comfortable bed ever. Breakfast was also very good. Only problem was that there was no sign from the road but we guessed where it was! The owner and his wife were charming and provided excellent info on where to eat and then booking our choice.

Ein Glücksgriff in Bovec

Am Rand von Bovec, aber das kleine Zentrum ist gut zu Fuss erreichbar. Sehr schönes, neueres Appartement. Äusserst netter Empfang. Beim Frühstück gibt es erfreulicherweise sehr viele regionale Produkte.
Die Dusche ist einer der wenigen Minuspunkte, keine Abtrennung in Form von Vorhang oder so.
