Hotels in Ljubljana

Ljubljana is Slovenia's small, walkable capital, set on the Ljubljanica river beneath a hilltop castle. The old town is largely pedestrianised, with three bridges - including the famous Tromostovje, or Triple Bridge - by architect Joze Plecnik linking the medieval and baroque quarters.

The city blends Italian, Austrian, and Balkan influences in its food, architecture, and pace of life. River-side cafes, the Open Kitchen market on Fridays, and the Metelkova counterculture quarter give it the feel of a much larger capital. Lake Bled, Postojna Cave, and the Julian Alps are all within easy day-trip distance by car or train.
