“Brilliant hotel !”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

people found this review helpful

We have just come back from a weeks holiday at this hotel. I booked it based on the reviews on here. We were not disappointed , in fact it was even better than anticipated! I travelled with my husband and two children age 3 and 6. We had a quad room which was huge, modern , two single beds at one side of room with a bigger than king size bed at the other. Very clean ( cleaner came in every day ) free wi fi in room and satalite tv with cartoon network which kept the kids happy for half hr here and there ! Room was quiet with a lovely view of slopes. We had a shower room ( again big) I guess if you wanted a room with a bath you may need to request this. There is no kettle in room but we had taken a travel one.

Food was really nice with an excellent choice, breakfast there was every thing you could want, cereal, fruit, yoghurt, toast, ciossants, rolls, pancakes, cheese, ham and hot food sausages and selection of eggs etc, selection of juices and teas and coffee. Dinner was just as good with a good choice, kids always found something they liked always at least 3 meat dishes, vegetables and a couple of pasta dishes, salad , cheese and cold meats. The food is traditional. Dessert was good too with a selection of cakes, fruit and ice cream. ( My only negative was that you had to pay 2.80 euros for a bottle of water when tap water in Slovenia is drinkable).

The staff were very pleasant and helpful and even allowed us to stay in our room till 12.30 when check out was 11 am.

The hotel is in a great place just a walk over a small road to the slopes ( literally a minute ). Crystal told us that they were the cheapest for lift pass and skis - they are not !!! Get your lift pass from the hotel ( someone previously mentioned on here ) and get your skis from Sport Point ( its on the right looking at the slopes with orange tent at side attached to sporty bar - great for hot chocolate and hot wine ! ) Really friendly blokes in there and we also arranged a private lesson for myself and one for my sons through them. They will do you a good deal and most days gave us a sledge for free. Kids skis, boots and helmet were just 10 euros for both of them , we just had them a day at a time when we wanted them.

Kranjska Gora is great for families , there is lots to do ...nursery slope with a magic carpet , slope just for sledging, ice rink, hike to see reindeer for kids ( hotel puts this on) , inflatables at the bottom of the slopes which kids sit in and get pulled round. This isnt the place for apres ski as most locals seem to drink fruit tea after a day on the slopes , Vopa Bar was probably the only bar with some life which was a nice place and just over 2 euros for a large beer.
Hotel puts on a mini disco twice a week at hotel 8 till 9 o clock.

Hotel has lovely pool and they even give the kids bath robes - just ask at reception.

We would love to go back ! Excellent value for money.

Room Tip: You probably have to ask for a room with a bath as I think most have showers ( showers are big thoug...

“Brilliant hotel near slopes”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012 via mobile

person found this review helpful

Recently stayed in this lovely hotel for our childrens (ages 8 & 6) first skiing holiday.

A stones throw from the nursery slopes, we couldn't fault it in any way.

Sizeable clean rooms, brilliant swimming pool, a large selection of different food at each meal, friendly staff, all in what seems like a recently refurbished hotel.

Would definitely return if we decide that there are enough slopes for the kids to progress on, as it is quite restricted on variation of slopes.

“Excellent Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012

people found this review helpful

Have just returned from a skiing holiday at this hotel through Crystal / Thomson. For what we paid I cannot believe the value. Our room was large, very clean and lovely views. The hotel is quite modern and spacious with a very nice free swimming pool and hot tub and a lovely sauna area with 3 types of sauna, plunge pool and rest area although there is a 13 euro fee for this. Breakfast catered for every type of palate from cereals to cauliflower! The bacon was not best back but edible. There was fresh fruit and the usual cold meats and cheeses, eggs, waffles, pancakes etc, in fact something for everyone. Dinner was the same, buffet style. Shark was one dish on the menu the first night, I think something got lost in the translation there. The hotel is a two minute walk to the slopes and ski hire and the Vopa pub is also two minutes away with a large beer at two euros, wine at one and coffee at one. Like all hotels they charge more for drinks in the hotel, but coffee was only fractionally more expensive and the wine and beer cheaper than home. Staff all spoke English far better than my Slovenian.The locals tended to eat dinner and breakfast in a range of track suits, so quite informal.
My only complaints, you had to pay for water with your meal and when you showered it would occasionally change temperature quickly so be prepared to push the head away.
As far as skiing goes the resort is really only ideal for skiers up to 3 years, after that you will not be challenged, although the reds and blacks on Podkoren were good but limited. However the night skiing adds a new level. We skied from ten till two when the sun sent behind the mountain, ate, swam, slept, had dinner and skied again.
So very good hotel, lovely resort, ideal for beginners and you will not be ripped off.

“Very big disappointment”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 January 2012

Arriving at 03:00am all I wanted is to take a shower and have some sleep, instead I faced a dirty toilet I needed to clean and blood in the shower, in addition to unchanged sheets with umbilical hairs of previous guest.
The reception boy told to take the room since he have no others.

The room was ordered 2 weeks in advance together with other surgeon's congress members.
In addition to my case to other 2 guests from the same group were offered to share a room, since they had no free rooms (regardless the order).

This situation is more suitable for low class hostel rather 4* hotel.

Fitness center they are promising is a room with a table tennis, and even this wasn't accessible, since following them it was rented by somebody for private use.

Breakfast is also very poor

After intervention of the travel agent (very good job) hotel administration rooms were found the next day and administration apologized.

Room Tip: Hotel Larix from same hotel network 100m from there is better.

“Great Hotel, great resort - v busy over Xmas”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

Eastern Bloc chic - designwise!!

Big rooms (well family room was big), great staff, buzzing over Xmas, lovely pool, perfect location next to slopes, super little resort. Only gripe was the ski lift queues but that's nowt to do with the Hotel. Also kids ski school wasn't as good as previous experiences but it was a very busy time so big classes - again nothing to do with the hotel.

Massive selection of food. Some dishes a little iffy and deserts not up to much but plenty of choice so you won't go hungry.

Recommend a day trip to Ljubljana.
