Great location and amenities!

Great location just a short walk from the hustle and bustle of the old town. The Occidental is very nice and clean. The rooms are compact but very cleverly laid out. The breakfast buffet was good with lots of options, and the hotel restaurant’s food was tasty and well-priced.

Nice location, shame about the room.

The location of the hotel is very good and walkable to the castle and attractions. The room wasn’t great tho, very small and I’m glad I was only here for a night. Even the window to the room faced internal with no proper light, not great!

Great centrally located hotel.

A very nice new hotels in a great location close to the old town in Ljubljana. Very convenient, within walking distance of almost all of the main sights and by a very nice public square. Plenty of good bars and restaurants nearby. Room was comfortable with a nice shower and comfy beds. Although we had an internal facing room with no view, the room was therefore quiet. Was cheaper than some upmarket alternatives which when we arrived we saw were much further away from the main sights. Would stay again.
