Hotel Plesnik Logarska Dolina

Incredible experience. We stayed here for our honeymoon in late April and cannot recommend it enough. The wellness center is incredibly relaxing, with gorgeous views and excellent massage options. The hotel is situated near many scenic hikes within walking distance and the staff was immensely helpful in helping us navigate towards them. Finally.. the FOOD. We did the half-board option, which gave us breakfast, a small soup/salad lunch and a 4 course dinner, and I cannot rave enough about it. Everything was made from scratch and incredibly delicious. Additionally, we did the optional fine dining experience which has been open for about a month of writing this. The food was Michelin-star level, with 11 courses of local food presented in novel ways which was, above all, delicious. Our server was also incredibly nice and explained the dishes well. Overall, we were extremely pleased with the experience and would come back again.

Great spa and the view, amazing! Spa is opened until 10pm that is a great benefit. Rooms are very spacious, balcony with a pool and mountain view. They offer small lunch from 12pm on the day of arrival, some salads, soup and cheese. We were missing some local sweets so we order for extra charge. Dinner is nothing special, main course was good, but we expected more from a 4* hotel for that price. Overall, it is a nice experience but a bit overpriced. Some services could have been easily improved (extra towels in spa, individually made eggs for breakfast, sauna with mountain view not only underground etc….)

The location is very pretty, in a quiet valley. Our room (king balcony) was relatively small but nicely decorated; the bathroom did not have a real wall, but great shower and nice décor. There is no air conditioning, which worried me when I found out but the temperature in the room was actually ok (opening the windows). We arrived during a storm and were poorly greeted. The same happened at breakfast, the staff is not very friendly and seem annoyed (probably they are understaffed?). They have lots of old fashioned pension rules such as allocated tables for breakfast and set dinner menu. I had originally asked to have dinner at the hotel but when we arrived we were shown a menu with only a broccoli soup and a dessert as veg options, so we declined. The receptionist said the chef would make something vegetarian for us but without knowing what it was we opted to eat somewhere else. The whole situation was a bit of a faulty tower episode. They claim the set menu avoids food waste but I am not sure how many people choose to dine in. I would rather have a choice and maybe eat one dish rather than be forced to eat a big meal with a sad vegetarian option (baked onions, broccoli soup, hummus). The set menu is quite expensive (50 euro without beverages) compared to other local restaurants. The habit of allocating a table per room (not negotiable) is unpleasant and old fashioned. The restaurant room was stifling in the morning. There is a nice terrace and we saw other guests having breakfast there so we just moved there. The natural pond (with fish) is a little weird. Overall it feels like an old-style pension and it should be priced accordingly, in my opinion. I fell and sprained my ankle and they were kind enough to provide ice for me.
