Ljubljana
One of the most engaging small cities in Europe, with hardly a jarring note, Slovenia’s capital is a delight to explore on foot, its willow shaded river lined with outdoor cafés in summer. There’s also a vast programme of cultural events, plus interesting restaurants and wonderful cakes, coffee and ice cream. Unfortunately there are, at present, only a handful of hotels to choose from in this little known gem and hardly any that match the Baroque charm and character of the city. Those on offer are mainly modern, well equipped, extremely clean and perfectly comfortable, if bland; change, however is afoot and we have highlighted several gems. Location is important, especially on a brief visit, when it’s preferable to be as close to the city’s heart, Presernov Square, as possible. Prices feel very reasonable and represent excellent value for money; the best hotels in town are affordable.
