Accommodat ion

Ljubljana is a small capital with a large choice of places to stay

Ljubljana provides a good range of accommodation facilities of all categories and types, currently totalling around 2,800 hotel rooms (year 2016). Additional units are available in pensions, bed & breakfast, short-let apartments, youth and student hostels, and private rooms.

Most hotels are centrally located and are either within walking distance or within 3 km of the Old Town, top city sights, key institutions, as well as the major meeting facilities. The metropolitan area (radius of 20 km from Ljubljana) offers a further choice of accommodation – from family-run hotels and small business hotels to guesthouses, pensions, motels, short-let apartments, tourist farms, eco resorts and private rooms. All the main hotels as well as the majority of other properties (pensions, apartments, etc.) have been fully refurbished over the last decade. In Ljubljana, there is currently an active development of the market of hotels that are part of the renowned international hotel chains. In accordance with the green commitment of Ljubljana, more and more hotels choose to prove their sustainable operational activities with international eco-friendly labels.
