Guesthouses in Koper that we recommend
APARTMENTS ARTEMUS BELVEDER Koper, Slovenia Apartments Artemus Belveder is a wonderful guesthouse type accommodation situated on edge of Koper's Old Town. The location is really superb, very close to everything in Koper. It is especially near the beach and there is a supermarket conveniently located behind it. There are 6 apartments, studios and rooms in the building. They vary in size and shape but are comfortable and very clean and can accommodate two to four people. They have been recently renovated with all mod cons you'll need for a nice stay, including excellent A/C, which is really needed in the summer heat. One of the apartments also have a balcony with a great view overlooking the harbour. The beds are very comfortable and the pillows and linens are nice and soft. The bathrooms are modern and well-equipped, including nice shower stalls with plenty of hot water and ample water pressure.

There is some slight noise from the harbour and from the street but you get that everywhere in Koper. There is no breakfast served at the guesthouse, but all units have a fridge, kettle and microwave, so if you want it's easy to prepare your own, or you could visit one of the many restaurants nearby. The owner, Tjasa, could not have been more helpful, friendly and welcoming.

GUEST HOUSE GARNI MIMOSA Smarje pri Kopru, Koper, Slovenia Guest House Garni Mimosa is a lovely place to stay located in the small village of Smarje, about a 10-minute drive from Koper. The grounds are well kept. There are 7 apartments and rooms available in the building. They are of different shapes and sizes, but all are air-conditioned, clean and tidy with a good bathroom and a TV and refrigerator. The air conditioning is effective which is very important in the hot summer months in Koper as temperatures regularly go above 30°C. The beds are reasonably comfortable - not quite hotel standards, but perfectly fine. If you are a light sleeper, ask for a room at the back and not overlooking the road. The bathrooms are fine and functional, and very clean with towels and toiletries provided. The apartments also have a kitchen, which is rather small but adequate for a holiday stay. They have continental style breakfast which is pretty basic but absolutely fine to start into the day. The owner Tanja is a lovely person who is always smiling and friendly. She is eager to make you feel right at home and has good knowledge of the Slovenian coast and its attractions, restaurants etc, There's a nice little garden outside with garden furniture and you can also use a BBQ. There is also a nice playground for the kids to enjoy and even a small gym with good equipment. The free WiFi is fast and works very well in all parts of the guesthouse and there are a couple of free covered parking places in the backyard if you have a car. All in all, a nice wallet-friendly place to stay in the Koper area recommended for budget conscious travellers travelling by car.

HOTELS IN KOPER THAT WE RECOMMEND Koper is the largest town on the Slovenian coast and the sixth-largest city in Slovenia. There are currently 5 hotels in the city, but the overall quality of the hotels is not that great, and at the moment there's only one hotel in Koper that we can really recommend.

GUEST HOUSES IN KOPER THAT WE RECOMMEND Guest houses are a traditional form of accommodation in Slovenia for holiday makers and other travellers. They are a great choice for a place to stay as they are comfortable and wallet-friendly with owners who take an interest in their guests. There are more than 10 guest houses available in the Koper area, find out which are the ones that we recommend the most.
BED AND BREAKFASTS IN KOPER THAT WE RECOMMEND Opting for a bed and breakfast over other types of lodging is a great way to personalize your stay and get to know the locals. Bed and breakfasts feel like you are literally staying in someone’s house, because often you are. The advantage of a B&B is that the breakfasts are often home cooked meals that are prepared with love and attention. These meals are included in your room rate and are a great way to start your day. Find out which B&Bs in Koper we recommend the most, and why!
APARTMENTS IN KOPER THAT WE RECOMMEND With all the comforts of home, apartments are a great choice for lodging during your trip to Koper. They are often more affordable and can be very comfortable places to stay. But be careful, the rates and quality vary seriously, so always do a good research before you book an apartment!
HOSTELS IN KOPER THAT WE RECOMMEND Hostels in Koper are the go-to option for travellers and backpackers who plan to spend very little of their time in their room and most of their time exploring Koper and the Slovenian coast. They’re also a great way to meet other travellers. Unlike a hotel, hostels are more communal in nature and that includes sharing a room with strangers, although often you can get a private room if you want to pay a little more. Find out which hostels in Koper we recommend the most, and why!
FARM STAYS IN THE KOPER AREA THAT WE RECOMMEND In recent years, farm stays are growing among a number of travelers looking to reconnect with fresh air, local and organic foods, and a more simple and authentic lifestyle on vacation. Farm stays are a form of accommodation on a working farm. Actual accommodations can vary from a room in a farm house, to a cabin or a guest cottage. Typical rates are similar to a bed and breakfast, and like a bed and breakfast, some offer delicious home cooked meals. Some farm stays also allow guests to participate in the daily activities on the farm if they choose.
