We liked this place for our stay in Ljubljana. Staff are friendly and helpful, they let us check in even thought we arrived early and held on to our bags after checkout. Room was large and clean. It is in a good location for seeing Ljubljana. For our one night, and since we were backpacking, it was a bit of a long walk to get there from the train station and to do the walk again the next day. If you are staying for longer than one night then definitely recommend!

The entrance is on the third floor up the stairs, so don't be confused when you get there and buzz in! The location is amazing, and the room is large and comfortable. There is no AC in the room, but the staff brought a fan to us (without us having to ask) when the weather got unseasonably warm, and we were comfortable sleeping with that and the window open.

We had a 2 night stay in a studio apartment. It looked newly decorated and very modern, lovely bathroom and a 4 ring stovetop, microwave and fridge with little freezer section. Ideal if you don't want to eat out all the time. Bed large and comfy. Check in went well, staff lovely. I'm sure it warns you of this but to reiterate, reception and apartments are on 3rd floor of building with no lift. Approx 70 stairs to climb, Excellent exercise! Location gorgeous along the river. We were there in a mini heatwave for May, about 30 degrees. There's no aircon but there's a fan, although we didn't need it. There's windows to open and shutters to close in day. Definitely would recommend if you prefer an apartment type stay.

Location right along the river. It is walkable from the train station about a 20min walk, price was good, cleanliness and room service was excellent amd the security of the entrances and rooms top notch. There is no elevators here so 3rd floor all day. Rooms are very spacious and quiet. No air conditioning available but the nights are cool for now so issues there. Shower is small so if you are an overweight person you might find this uncomfortable. The bed to me felt uncomfortable as well the mattress is not the most supportive and not padded well enough so people with back problems this is a no go. The bed also squeaks everytime you move so maybe some ear plugs may help. Microwave, mini fridge and electric tea kettle is included. You are in a location full of restaurants, shops, breweries, bars, churches, parks, river boat rides, bike rides. Laundromat is a 15min walk from the hotel in the college part of the town. Overall not a bad experience the sightseeing and all the walking plus tours around the area will make it well worth it.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay in Galeria River. The staff, particularly Ines was very friendly and helpful to our needs. The room was very comfortable as it is big enough for both of us, with comfortable bed, clean, good rain shower head, the view outside our window was very relaxing with all the greeneries next to the river and view of the castle and old European structures. Perfect location, walkable to all the sites, restaurants, shops, and tourist attractions. Would definitely stay here again if given the chance to be in Ljubljana again.

The hotel was in a very convenient location. We loved the Riverside view from our room. The room is both large enough and had a cozy feeling.

Our staff was very responsive to all questions, and gave some great recommendations for things to see and places to eat.

When we inquired about a ride to the airport the next morning, they gave us a wonderful resource that served our needs very well.

We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique experience in a very historical building.

Basic property with no frills attached but I would stay there again. The location was perfect, in the old town, and it was very clean and quiet. There is street parking and garage parking. The street parking we had to pay the meter for but it was easy to do with the downloaded parking ap. On Sundays parking is free. You can park anywhere there are solid white lines on the road (yellow lines are for the residents) and we always found a spot close to the hotel. The front desk is helpful. They are not there 24/7. The hotel is up three flights of stairs but the receptionist offered and carried my bag up. This was a great stay and I would stay there again.

Just in front of the river, near the main attractions of the city. The room had a good space and was very clean.
Point of attention: there isn’t a lift and we had to carry out luggage to the 3rd floor. When leaving the hotel, my son fall from the stairs and got his arm injured (there was a painting service on the 2nd floor and they removed the handrails and covered the steps with a sleepery material)

WARNING! This was not a hotel, it was a sauna. This place doesn't have any air conditioning and when the city is 89 F (32C) degrees outside, like when I stayed there, it's like you're in a sauna sweating non-stop. They say they offer fans to help out - the fans in both my rooms were broken. One had no blades on the fan, one just blatantly didn't work. The building has small windows as well and no airflow so the rooms themselves are even hotter than the outside. Think you can sleep in a 96F (36C) degree room? Think you can sleep while your body is pouring out sweat and you're drenched? It's impossible.
Other things that make this place a really bad choice - there's no plugs in the room! Like 1 in the bathroom and 1 in the main room, where the fan is plugged in (if it worked). My bathroom smelled horrible, and I think the smell of the sewers was coming up through the shower drain. I felt really bad for the poor girl working in the lobby (on the 4th floor) - she was absolutely drenched in sweat and red in the face.
I had booked 2 rooms for 2 nights at this place and could not possibly stay a 2nd night. I left a day early even though I had already paid for the 2nd night.
I'd advise everyone to look elsewhere.

The location was great. That was the best part of the stay. Easily walkable to many attractions. The room had no hooks or pegs anywhere, so it was not convenient to hang clothes or towels. No extra pillows or blankets were available; just 1 skimpy 1/2 duvet and a flatish pillow for each.

There was a big problem with the shower which doesn’t drain properly threatening to overflowand is also very slippery
I fell and lightly sprained my wrist. If I had broken something, this would’ve been a huge problem as there is no safety cord and the reception is staffed only during work hours. When I mentioned this to the receptionist she was polite but didn’t seem to be in any hurry to summon a plumber. They do not have rubber bath mats, so I requested an extra cotton mat which I stuck in the shower. This became very filthy and filled with soap after two nights.
This is a less than ideal situation.
In addition, there is no air-conditioning which is surprising as even cheap hotels have AC nowadays. The temperature in late May reach 28°C.
This hotel was certainly overpriced for the amenities.
I would definitely stay somewhere else next time.

Although the location of the hotel was ideal our room's location within the hotel was less so. We found it difficult to rest and relax as our room was one of three located in reception. We we're frequently disturbed by guests checking in and out as well as the slamming of the lobby door as people entered and left the premises. Further, our experience was hampered by a broken shower in our room. When we alerted staff to the issue we were met with indifference and a suggestion of how we might fix the shower ourselves. Though one might expect fewer amenities at a budget friendly hotel Galeria River is not that budget friendly and a working shower isn't a high-end amenity.

TLDR: great location, mediocre rooms, poor service

Nice place but totally uncomfortable in the summer

Pros: great location. Affordable, small but nice room w en-suite great recommendations on restaurants and activities. Shower had great pressure and was nice Cons: this is partially my fault and Mother Nature as it was 90+ degrees F and I figured it wouldn’t be an issue in a 200 year old building. I’d love to stay there again in any season but summer as there’s no air. You are provided with an 8 inch fan. I had a dilemma as my room faced the river(a great view was another pro) but if I closed the windows it would be unbearable and if I left them open-which I had to-I’d be swarmed with bugs-which I was. I ended up putting the fan next to me and slept on top of the covers with the bugs. They landed on me all night as there’s a lamp light directly to the right of my window when you look out. The sheets weren’t changed in 4 days I was there but I didn’t go to the front desk to complain as I was on tours each day and it didn’t open until 10 and was closed by the time I got back. It was one of the most uncomfortable stays I’ve had in Europe yet I want to make clear that I’d stay there in cooler weather. Maybe the listing should make it clear that due to no air it’s a hard stay so be prepared.

Our stay

The hotel was located on the 3rd floor of a building and had no elevator. It wasn’t a big deal for us, but is important for people to know when carrying luggage up 3 flights of old, slightly uneven wooden stairs. The room was super plain. Seemingly, an ikea bed and table. No a/c, but they did have a fan. The shower head did not hold in place and so kept sliding down low. The hotel is in a good location for walking

The location of the hotel is on the edge if the town center but everything is within 10-15min walk. Shuttle bus from the airport is about 30min.
Staff are very friendly here and toiletries are adequate. The only thing that I would complain is the WiFi. The network is so bad that I got disconnected everyday few minutes at the worst period.
