    Quirky hotel with loads of space
    Our party of nine had to find a hotel quickly when our return flight to UK was cancelled and EasyJet didn’t bother to respond to our requests. This is a great hotel for staying at Ljubljana. It is within the pedestrianised area of the city, just a stone’s throw from the river. The suites are all different and have their own unique character. Our, Suite 7, was a little dated, but lovely nonetheless. Huge, huge rooms with a massive double bath. The bed was very comfortable, however the Slovenians don’t seem to get ‘pillows’ as such. Everywhere we went the pillows never offered much more than air and feathers! Anyway, breakfast was included and consisted of cold meats, cheeses, smocked salmon along with fruit, cereals, boiled eggs, pastries, toast, bread, unlimited coffee and fruit juices. A great way to start the day. Photos of the ‘rich and famous’ who have stayed there on the walls of the dining room. All the staff were *really* helpful and friendly, they literally couldn’t do enough for you. We had umbrellas thrust into our hands as we left to explore the city when there was a little rain outside. Very spacious communal areas and an internal courtyard. Thoroughly enjoyable, if all too brief stay (two nights). Towels changed both days too!
    Dear Guest, We thank you very much for this nice and helpful comment. We are happy that you enjoyed your stay with us and hope to see you again soon! With best regards, Antiq Palace Team

    Beautifully converted old palace lacking modern amenities
    First the positives, the staff were very friendly and helpful. This building is a rabbit warren of stairs and corridors in an old converted building, it is a real gem architecturally. The room we had was a suite and it had a lovely bathroom with a large bedroom with a high ceiling and beautifully frescoed fresco. The bed was very comfortable with high quality cotton sheets. There were nice armchairs and a good flatscreen tv. The location of the hotel is perfect. Just 1 street behind the very busy pedestrian area beside the river, so, 1 minute walk from the action but on a quiet street. What did not work for me was that the room was hot, and, there is no aircon. Also, there were 2 windows, but, one did not open as it was screwed shut, so, it was not possible to cool the room down in the morning or evening. There was a tall fan standing in the corner, but, it only served to move around the hot air, not to cool the room. The other challenge was that there was no shower, there was a nice bath, and it had a hand held shower head with a lead so that you could kind of shower while holding it in one hand. The water pressure was good. There is no car park in the hotel which is located in the old centre which is pedestrianised. You need to phone the hotel and the receptionist walks out to where the street barrier is (approx 5 min walk from the hotel) and guides you to onstreet parking and gives you a permit to display in your car. This costs €35 per day which is expensive and they should really tell you it will cost this much when you are booking the hotel. Try to book a rate that includes breakfast, or, you will pay

    OK central hotel
    The hotel is centrally located in a quiet street very close to sights, bars, restaurants, etc. Even though the hotel is situated in an old palace (allegedly formerly owned by the Italian royal family), you are unfortunately NOT in for a royal treatment! The hotel is a confusing maze of corridors, stairs, levels, etc. Our suite was very spacious and bright, and was partially furnished with antique cupboard, tables, etc. but they didn't manage to keep this style all the way through, beds are really comfortable. The staff is very helpful, but it is a bit difficult to find out, when the reception is manned, and when it is not, but as you let yourself in with the room key, it normally causes no difficulties. Breakfast is VERY basic (probably because the hotel is small = 20 rooms). We visited the hotel after all covid restrictions were suspended: But still the rooms would not be cleaned (allegedly "due to Covid"), unless you specifically requested it - what a weird scheme/explanation! WARNING: The hotel shares courtyard with a music conservatory (in several floors), so for 10 hours a day you are "entertained" unfortunately NOT with music but with endless, annoying and nerve wrecking scales, instrument tuning, etc. so if you are not 100% sure to have a room facing the street: Stay away from this hotel – it is torture!

We wish we had paid more attention to the reviews before booking the Antiq Palace. Our room wasn't made up and the tea/coffee station was not replenished before we took the room on. Reception told us that due to a bit of a panic by the cleaning company over covid, rooms were only serviced at the specific request of the guest! We were not told this and anyway, are covid restrictions not a thing of the past? The silicone around the bath showed signs of mould as did the grout in the tiles in the shower. The toilet bowl looked like it had not been cleaned. There was no soap in the dispensers. Staff eventually left bars of hand soap and tiny bottles of shower gel. The tap dripped, as did the bidet. The plug in the sink doesn't stay in place had we wanted to fill the sink. The shower head in the main shower was pretty useless. Blinds on the window were broken or didn't work properly. There was 3 hangers in the wardrobe. There was a huge TV on a sideboard - the screen had a distracting crackly fault line right across the screen. Having said all of this, the staff at reception were very nice and very helpful.

The good, the room was nice and big and breakfast food selection was nice. The problems; When reserving the room I requested from the website to have a quiet room, this was not given to us. Extremely noisy hotel, there was an event the 1st night we were there, as they were packing up the people were banging doors, talking loudly in the street and banging things in cars till past 2 AM. Almost impossible to sleep after 25 hours of flying. The room itself is quite loud, it sounded like the devil himself was boring up from the center of Earth into our bathroom at midnight or later, horrendous noise that woke us up every night. The front desk clerk called our room AT 12:30 AM!!!! the last night when we had to wake up at 4 AM to catch a flight. Not an appropriate time to settle the bill and very disrespectful of them. If you would like coffee at breakfast you will get one cup, then the workers disappear. No hope to get a second cup but that is it and you will never see them again. No proper shower, just a tub with a hose and sprayer.

The place was definitely good. It was charming, and I had a very atmospheric room with a slanting roof and unique layout. I always love to stay in these old palace-type places in Europe, but I must say this one was a better idea than the execution. It was a maze to get to the room, up multiple staircases, corridors, and elevators. The original decor of the palace had mostly been stripped away, so it was pretty minimalist inside. The staff were friendly but young and inexperienced. So, it was a nice and in a great location, but below what I expected.

The Antiq Palace is in a great location but that is the only thing going for it. We have a room on the third level but lift only goes to the second so it is then a circuitous route in and out of building to our room. Our room has filthy walls, mould in the bathroom and horrible towels that are threadbare in places. There is a kettle and some tea bags and coffee sachets but no cups. Supposedly bathrobes supplied in the room but we could only find a belt for a bathrobe. Despite advising staff of missing items it is now day 3 of a 10 night stay and still haven’t received at least the cups. Breakfast at 15 Euros a head would bring our bill for breakfast alone to 300 Euros. I bit much for us especially as our travel agent advised us breakfast was included. Don’t stay here!

This is the worst hotel we have stayed in in years. Supposed to be 4stars and a member of the Small Leading Hotels’s of the World, should be good. We were told by our tour company there was room service, but there is non. The rooms are musty, mouldy and badly equipped with almost everything not working. Tv,s don’t work, nor does the phone, the bedroom light fitting had one bulb working out of six. The wooden toilet seat was split and the remedy was to tape it up with black tape. The net curtains were literally grey with dirt and grime . The breakfasts were a complete disgrace shop bought packet muffins and croissants , dried up cheese , just awful. The most surprising element was the complete lack of housekeeping. Rooms are not refreshed daily, so it’s aDIY service, make your own bed and wash your cups up yourself . When we asked why there was no service the reason they said was COVID, given this was only two weeks ago and no one in or out of the hotel were wearing masks it was almost the final insult to our intelligence. There was a dishwasher but like everything else it was broken with the door hanging open and the bottom full of stinking grey water. In the run down, over grown courtyard a glass sat on one of the tables for all the time we were there. In the grubby uninspiring lobby was a covered dish with a sign asking guests to help themselves to a croissant, in four days it remained empty with the same sad crumbs. Beware as well the lift just goes to the second floor thereafter it’s 24 steep stairs to the attic rooms, no good for anyone who is physically impaired. Yes this is an historic building in the Centre of this beautiful city but the renovation was done years ago with little sensitivity to design or charm . Watch out for having to walk some distance from where the taxi drops you, it’s another drawback depending on weather and ability. The only saving grace were the charming staff who tried so hard to deal with all the inadequacies of this sad tired building which offers no luxury and does not meet four star standards.

This hotel is quire, greatly situated with amazing staff. Why quire? Because it's a 16th century palace with corridors (Hall wayd), staircases (an elevator (lift) to the second floor, 2 beautiful patios and rooms in different stile and size. Breakfast was tasty. The hotel is situated in the center of Old Town near all the important tourist attractions. The staff are amazingly helpful and thoughtful

I have very mixed feeling about this hotel. Location is a big advantage , the hotel is quite near the historical centre of the city. The staff was cooperative, fluent in English and friendly. The price for room was high, but much more reasonable than other hotels asked to pay in this district. Anyhow, I wish to stress that once you check in with this place- be ready to park your car at public parking - 3 minutes walking distance. The building of the hotel is dated to the 15th century, so far be ready to long corridors some smell (related to aged items) and not all rooms are equipped with AC which was a big disadvantage in our case. Breakfast- sufficient to satisfy any expectations especially tacking into consideration that omelet, eggs or similar can be ordered in addition for free. Summarizing: nice place, but personally I prefer to stay in new style building even if I will need to drive to see the old city, Good luck.

If I could give a negative star , I would . 1. We requested and confirmed an extra sofa bed . We confirmed the day before . None and there is no sofa bed , it arrived the next day . Little did I know this is the least of the issues to follow . No airco and one small fan . Rooms 30 C . Full of bugs and mosquitos . Toilets clogged and smelled of sewer . I reported that the toilet was backed up with feces at 8:00 am and 9:00 am . Arrived back to the sauna Of a room at 17:00 . No plumber called . Rooms not cleaned . Fake excuse that due to COVID , you need to request a refresh the night before . It is August 8 and they are riding the COVID excuse wave to not clean . Room smells like a sewer , is hot . A roach crawled in my son’s bed . Used and old furniture and bathrooms with mold . NEVER EVER .

Yes this is an antique hotel, but it’s beautiful. She needs an update for sure, but the big rooms, massive windows, big bathtub and courtyard make up for being outdated. Breakfast is good and service is fantastic! We stayed a few days with a dog and had a great time.

A real nightmare of a hotel. 1) Huge rooms in a laborint of a house, with hardly any windows with a view of others than neatest roof. 2) Long wait to check in due to one person only (!) on dury, and she had tomshow another couple to their place in the laborint. 3) Terrible breakfast. Only a youg girl staffing, and she was making bread for the emty basket when we arrived. Long wait. 4) And the worst part: When we arrived back from an excellent dinner a couple was struggling to get into the hotel by the chip provided to open the entrance door. It did not work, nor did ours. Luckily we were able to force our way through the door. The hotel refused to believe in our predicament, as they claimed it worked in the mornig. Didnt help us in the middle of the night! The incident is serious and has been reported to the police. Sad start to an otherwise perfect stay in one of Europe`s most lovely cities. Stay away from this terrible place, is our advice.
