Postojna, Slovenia Hotel Kras is a modern hotel that sits on the main town square in the heart of Postojna. The hotel's ultra-modern external appearance is a little sterile, but as soon as you get into the hotel you are reassured. The lobby is spacious, light and bright and comfortable with many seating options. The rooms are large, well appointed and beautifully dressed in modern decor with huge windows overlooking either the square or the main road leading to the caves. There is really no difference in any of the rooms, but if you choose to overlook the square you may encounter some noise. The rooms with the view over the road are quieter and you also get to see the mountains. The air conditioning is terrific and you can also open a window for really fresh air. The bathrooms are clean and spacious and the shower has a good water pressure and temperature. The breakfast is served in the foyer of the hotel, but it is delicious, a step above the standard fare with bread and rolls, coldcuts, croissants and pastries, cereal and granola, scrambled and hard-boiled eggs, hard and soft cheeses, fruit, juice, various coffees, and more. The staff are great, very informative and helpful, providing information about the caves and other sights in the Postojna area and recommending good restaurants for dinner (there are two very nice restaurants very close to the hotel). The underground parking is very convenient and the free Wi-Fi works well with excellent signal strength. All in all, it is a quality hotel with a professional staff and very convenient location, Location: Style/character: Staff & service: Rooms: Facilities: Food & drink: Cleanliness: Value for money: Free WiFi: Free parking: |
