Tripadvisor please let us rate about 5!
There really needs to be a Tripadvisor category for 5+ hotels, with some way of limiting how freely people could award such recognition – for example, allowing people to identify a hotel as being among the top 5 or 10 they have ever visited. Zlata Ladjica would fit into that group for us.
The hotel itself is beautiful and in excellent condition, with tasteful decor and colors and an thoughtful combination of the building’s old heritage with modern design. We had the experience of two different rooms during our stay, both of which were very well decorated and designed – in fact, each room is unique not only in its shape but in its decor. The bathrooms were creatively designed and the furniture was well chosen.
Yet the real standout of the hotel is its team. From top to bottom, front desk to restaurant, the staff were fantastic – not mere employees but rather well-educated team members who shared the responsibilities for seeing that each guest’s needs were addressed. The bar/restaurant staff was particularly impressive, but then again so was the front desk staff, and even the cleaning ladies were full of smiles.
The food must be mentioned as well. Breakfast might as well count as lunch as it was oh so large. On the first morning, you are treated to a standard plate with local traditions, which alone would satisfy most hungry diners, but you then also are asked to select from the list of egg and other mains – all delicious but belt-busting. After the first day, you have different themed breakfast options (mermaid, fitness, etc.), which didn’t reduce the food quantity but does provide some variety when compared to the traditional European hotel breakfast buffet.
We also enjoyed dinner in the restaurant one night and were very pleased with the quality of the food. And, oh yes, the service was excellent.
In other words, a 5+ hotel experience!

Beyond exceptional
This was a stay for the ages. It was beyond what can be grasped by looking online. Nate and Gregor, along with the rest of the crew were instantly available to make you feel like the only guest there. They arranged and prepared a customized six course menu on our first night to sample the best of Slovenia, and even treated us to their local orange wines. The orange transport for us on the day and on the day out, and even gave us great tips around the city. The place itself is very central, and close to all the main attractions, Has great view of the river. It was even featured on my food tour. The food is exquisite and the breakfast has a reputation throughout the city as one of the best.
