Hotel Kranjska Gora

We’ve recently spent the half term week at Hotel Kranjska Gora with friends and had the most wonderful time. The team here really are a different class. The hotel has recently changed ownership and the staff throughout the hotel couldn’t have been more helpful. Everyone was friendly and went out of there way to help and advise, whether it was Ksenija on reception helping with my very limited Slovenian and providing ideas of where to go when the weather wasn’t so great, to Jadran who managed to find excellent local wines every evening at dinner and Nichola who really went the extra mile throughout our stay, helping us with everything from car hire to sampling the local grappa and planning us a trip to Monte*****! The hotel itself is undergoing some renovation, however this is being done in a very subtle way and we weren’t aware of any significant work taking place during our stay. The rooms, bar, restaurant, and food were all excellent and really clean. We had planned to eat out a few nights, however due to the quality of the food and the service provided by the team we ended up eating at the hotel every night! The location of the hotel is superb, 5 minutes walk into town and around 10 minutes walk to the local lake (which really is beautiful as the sun goes down). Whilst our plan was to ski in Kranjska Gora, the weather was against us (too warm and too wet) however the Gerlitzen Alpe across the boarder in Austria was less than 40 mins drive away and being so much higher had great snow. Kransja Gora itself is a pretty little town, with some fun bars and lovely restaurants and the resort itself is really good value for money, however in truth it was the hotel and the staff that really made our holiday, we’re already searching for flights as we’re sure to return soon 😊

We stayed here for two nights as part of a tour that we were on. We ate in the hotel both nights and had a good choice of foods from the buffet which had a different choice each night. Very friendly staff two of which stood out -- Nicholas in the restaurant and Ksenija on reception were both cheerful and helpful. I understand that this hotel has just been aquired by another group and will be shut in November for a major upgrade. This will freshen it up and I would love to return. A walk in to town only takes about 8 minutes. There is a large car park and the views from the rooms are stunning mountain scenes. You can walk from the front door of the hotel on a variety of trails.
