Kimkim Trip Reviews for Slovenia

Great location and easy to get to old town, shopping and also easy location to meet drivers. The breakfast was fabulous!

Great location to.ild town and quiet.

The staff here were fabulous. Take advantage of the restaurant to have the lamb. Breakfast was wonderful. Rooms were so clean. We loved the little courtyard as well. It was the staff who made this place a 5 star +++.😁

This hotel is situated on main road and easybtonfind although a goodb45 minute walk to old town or 10 min taxi ride. Staff are exceptionally helpful both to make recommendations or providing service in the hotel They even set up a WhatsApp group and would make reservations or call for taxi for us wherever we were in Kotor.

Situated inside old town so just step outsideand walk to anyplace in old town. An excellent breakfast and also a small litte gathering room where we could sit with friends and have a glass of wine. They also helped set up our airport transfer and it was an excellent service as driver had to come to get us to lead us to the car (parking around old town is very limited).

This hotel was located in a great location. Clean and spacious room. Helpful staff. One of the bests meals EVER at the Mediterraneo Restaurant in Hvar. Not connected to the hotel but in walking distance. Fun place to be.

Not a lot of choices by Plitvice National Park but this hotel was more than adequate. Clean and convenient to the park. Hotel had a restaurant across the path which was good.

We loved Rovinj and this hotel was in a great location. Spacious room and clean. Fantastic bathroom - I like a good bathroom which is a requirement for me. One of our best meals was in Rovinj. Don't miss this city of going to Croatia.

We had two different guides in Dubrovnik and both were wonderful. They were able to explain the history of the city as well as general history of the country before, during and present. We learned so much about the homeland war of 1991 and breakup of Yugoslavia. Fascinating. They both went above and beyond insofar as the time they spent with us and their overall knowledge of the city and country.

We had a great guide in Hvar who drove us all over the island explaining so much about life there. This was a half day tour and we enjoyed every minute. Learned a lot and felt safe and comfortable the entire time. He took us to a konoba which was so much fun. He made the day really special.

The tour guide that took us to Kliss Fortress and then Trogir was also great. Very knowledgeable.

Lake Bled was beautiful. A great way to end our trip. However we were supposed to have gone to Radovljica and that never happened. It was apparent to us that our driver was also doing work for a company that was picking up people from LJU airport. We were supposed to have been picked up at Lake Bled at 2:00 and then gone to Radovljica. Our driver informed us the pickup would be at 3:00 and he never took us or stopped at the town. He was a nice person but was obviously juggling two separate jobs.

We absolutely loved Split. Hard to separate out all the tour guides we had but I know it was a great experience. Split was worth every minute we stayed there.

We had a lovely guide in Ljubljana. Due to the EU bike championship race going on that morning our guide altered our original and took us up the funicular to the Castle first. We toured the castle and then retraced our steps. We were shown the bridges that separate the two sides of the city and explained the triple bridge with the attendant dragons guarding the city. Beautiful city with fantastic restaurants and shops that line the river on both sides.

I was really looking forward to taking the walking tour of Plitvice. The lakes are beautiful and the area surrounding it incredibly well maintained. Our guide took us on various paths so we were able to see some of the lower and upper lakes. Nice break from the cities.

This was a fun activity. We were greeted by the owner of the estate we presented us with samples of wine and brandy that are produced on their property. She explained the difference between the white and black truffles and showed us the variety of ways they are used. We were treated to a lovely lunch of eggs with truffles as well as homemade breads.

Fun morning for sure, but I'd say our overall feeling about this was "meh". Our particular rafting group struggled to follow the guide's instructions somewhat and weren't the most fun group...which lessened the fun. Also, wish the rafting experience had been longer because 1 1/2 hours really felt too short. The guides and staff were pretty good and helpful though, so my comments are not a reflection of them.

All extremely helpful information provided by Nikola!

Such a special place to stay while enjoying our time near Lake Bled and the Gorje. Charming, modern, cozy (think hygge!) accommodations, and the staff were fantastic. Can't say enough about the restaurant. We ate dinner at the hotel both nights and had fabulous meals. The breakfasts are over the top as well. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

This was a fantastic boutique hotel located in the old town of Ljubljana. The room was modern & extremely comfortable & the breakfast was superb - all the staff were attentive to our needs. We loved reading about the 400 year history of the building

We enjoyed this activity immensely

We had a great experience- our guide Maya was very helpful

This was the best hotel I have ever stayed in. Attention to detail everywhere, rooms spectacular and the restaurant fantastic

The hotel lobby and dinning area were beautifully restored art deco notify. The rooms were small but very clean. Our room looked out to the mountains above Bovec. The breakfast buffet was superb

Beautiful setting in the Green Katst region og Slovenia. This hotel from location to rooms to the restaurant is meticulously maintained. The spa region first class and the food out of this world.

Nicely appointed rooms. Excellent location in the heart of Slovenia

An out of world experience. I have never experienced anything so remarkable. A must see in slovenia

Fantastic location, amazing food, super attentive staff. Highly recommend!

Stunning chalet in a stunning location. The breakfast baskets were delicious, and the private chef on the last night was a perfect way to end our trip. Highly recommend!

Amazing Farmstay, in a storybook town. Great food, comfortable rooms, unbeatable scenery and hiking right out your door

Great Farmstay, plus a tasting cellar! Beautiful location and great access to both the city and the caves

Beautiful, comfortable rural hotel, but only 15 minute walk to the beaches at Lake Bled! Great family and food!

We stayed at a hotel in Bled, which was a fantastic experience. The hotel reminded us of a fairytale, almost like something out of the Lord of the Rings, with its charming structure and decor. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, and the location was prime, right in the center, which allowed us to walk everywhere without worrying about transportation. They provided a top-notch laundry service, too. We went out for the day, and by the time we returned, our clothes were folded and placed on our bed. It was so convenient and truly delightful.

Our experience doing the Alpine outdoor activities was phenomenal. Even though we initially planned to go sledding, the change to an Alpine tour was perfect! We visited stunning waterfalls and a serene lake, surrounded by breathtaking winter scenery. Our tour guide was enthusiastic and made the experience even better. It was a full day with a small, friendly group, making the car rides enjoyable and the day one to remember.

We stayed 2 nights and loved the hotel. Our checkin, the location, our room and breakfast were all fabulous. It was a great start to our trip

We feel we absolutely picked a great place to stay in Bled. Many of the other hotels looked dirty and tired while Penzion Berc was small, quaint, clean, and well located. The breakfast and dinner on the property were excellent. Other meals in Bled were disappointing making our choice of Penzion Berc even more pleasing. We will be recommending it to others

Dobra Vila is an elegant hotel with a 1930’ish vibe. The public spaces are all beautifully appointed and terraced mountain view is unobstructed. Our room had access to a large patio with lounge chairs looking out to the mountains and sunset. The breakfast room is gorgeous and the breakfast is top notch.; we wish they also had dinner service. The bathroom was true to the hotel period decor but showering was a bit of challenge as it meant having to be in a beautiful bathtub.

Great room and hotel in a former castle in stunning Slovenian wine country equal in every way to Tuscany. The onsite restaurant is top notch, a really wonderful dining experience.

Great location, beautiful room and very helpful staff. Breakfast was excellent. We had a terrace room and loved the view and sunsets.

A very nice hotel and a great breakfast.

Great location, great service and very nice onsite dining. Beautiful water view from a terrific room.

A beautiful older European hotel with great staff

A fun and different thing to do in Bled.

A great outing that exceeded my expectations. It was interesting, hands on and the lunch provided was outstanding

The staff were so friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Our home away from home!

Charming place. We had an excellent dinner in the restaurant. Very well located.

Nice, modern hotel. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Well located.

No staff on hand and restaurant closed. However. Manager, when reached by phone, arranged for a taxi to take us to a local restaurant. The cab driver was a delight as was the restaurant and it turned a stressful situation into a delightful local color evening!

Room fine, location good. Breakfast consisted of a tray with a few stale, packaged biscuits(?) and a water boiler and ttea and instant coffee.

Elegant and very well situated. The staff was mist accommodating in all areas.

Again an excellent local guide whose family had a long historic connection to the city. Very personalized.

Beautiful location so close to our accommodation.

Our guide was delightful and so well informed. Great intro to the city. Very personalized.

Again an excellent, well informed. Very personable guide. She gave us an excellent lunch recommendation which was one of our favorite meals. Also gave us some indoor recommendations that proved to make a blustery. Rainy day enjoyable.

Cave was amazing. Details were well worked out. We even got in on an earlier tour!

Incredivle location, view and service. The breakfasts were amazing and plentiful as well.

Very informative and knowledgeable guide. Especially around the city center and the earthquake issues during covid and the main church reconstruction. There were some amazing events that day around farmers markets and football too.

Our Tour Guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. She also got us around easily the large crowds that unfortunately can slow one down or make one uncomfortable.

Incredible. The Roman and religious history and the spread of the empire was not at all k own to me. The tour guide showed us all the nooks and crannies in the many archeological sites during the tour. Highly advised to go 1-1 with a private tour.

Pension Berc is an island of elevated tranquility in an already sublime setting. From there, we were able to walk into downtown when the occasion warranted. We checked in very late our first evening, and were met by Rojer-aay. (My apologies for the phonetic spelling.) We were tired and rushed, but he made us feel welcome, checked us in, took our bags up and showed us our room, and then appeared as our waiter in the attached restaurant! (I secretly believe he was cloned, but he wouldn't admit to it.) The room was "quaint" as my wife put it, with a rustic appeal, and super strong water pressure. A remodeled farm; redone very effectively. Having the attached restaurant was a huge advantage. We intended to eat elsewhere the second night, but got so tired we defaulted due to being tired. Much of the menu was expensive due to it being a steak house, but the vegetable risotto and other menu items were reasonably priced and very tasty. All in all we were truly impressed, and would recommend Pension Berc to all travelers to beautiful Bled.

Our reservation was changed from Grand Hotel Union to Hotel Cubo. My review is of the Hotel Cubo, not the Grand Hotel Union. Hotel Cubo is a wonderful location, with easy access to the highway system and close to the river and the town center. It's modern/minimalist design is interesting, but the room decor is just starting to show some signs of wear and tear. Nothing awful understand, but just getting to the point of making an impression.

Larisa certainly knows Ljublana! Her knowledge and understanding are impressive. Having been trained as a historian, I truly appreciate the historical details she provided. Suggestions for improvement, and please understand they are minor: it took her awhile to understand my wife's slower traveling pace, but once she understood why, she was most accommodating. I didn't have enough time to take pictures from the watchtower atop the castle, but this was due to scheduling friction between a video presentation and the extra time picture taking would have demanded.

This is an incredible cave system! We were truly impressed! Just warn travelers that there is a considerable degree of walking involved, over uneven and wet surfaces. The enforced trip through the gift shop was a minor detraction, but is not an abnormal state of affairs in Europe.

Nina, our private guide, really knew her Bled. Her father was past president of the boat pilots association! She actually lives near our hotel in the old village. Initially, she had difficulty with my wife's slower pace of mobility, but quickly adjusted, and helped her climb the 99 steps to the church on the island without a stop!

Very comfortable hotel in a great location, only a few minutes walk from the lake. Great breakfast buffet. Friendly and helpful staff. Added bonus of self-service tea and coffee round the clock.

A very comfortable hotel in a great location overlooking the main plaza and a stone's throw from the harbour. Friendly and helpful staff. Good buffet breakfast. A slight issue with the plumbing in our room was dealt with swiftly.

A very comfortable hotel with only a short walk to the city centre and riverside. Friendly and helpful staff. A La Carte breakfast, ordered the night before. Bistro incorporated so that food and drinks were available to purchase throughout the day.

Great to taste unique sheep's cheese where it was produced. Slight issue with over friendly wasps - obviously not something that could really be avoided given the time of year.

Fabulous wine in a lovely location. Interesting tour of the cellars and production area. Delicious food to go with the wine.

We were lucky to be the only visitors on the tour. Our guide was clearly passionate about the horses and we learnt a lot from her. It was fortunate that we saw the mares and foals returning to the stables at the end of the afternoon as our visit was late in the season and we weren't able to see a show or any stallions out training. We did get lovely close-up views of horses in their stalls.

A very relaxing way to see more of the city. No commentary on the trip.

A lovely way to get to the island. Nice to ride on a traditional boat. Time was limited to 45mins on the island and it would have been nice to have had longer as there was quite a lot to see.

Really nice hotel in a good location and friendly helpful staff
