What a find! A clean, well-situated and reasonably priced hotel in the gorgeous Julian Alps. The rooms are large, well-equipped and have wifi and a balcony. There is a kitchen for guests with fridge, toaster, microwave, hob etc where you can make yourself a meal if you decide not to eat out. The air con is great, as it gets hot in the summer. The guy who manages the place, Mirko, is always available if you need him and is friendly and helpful.||It's about 10 mins max to walk down to the Lake and 5 mins to reach a couple of decent restaurants - Foksner, a brilliant burger joint and Rogic, an authentic Slovenian restaurant. There are more restaurants and bars by the Lake and there's also a supermarket, ATMs and the Tourist Info Centre. Bohinj is a great base for walking, with many hikes starting from there (nearly all of them starting with a pretty steep uphill) but the views over the Lake are worth the effort). If you want the views without the strain, there's a cable car to the Vogel plateau from Ukanc. For swimmers, the Lake has crystal clear water and you can choose anywhere you like to go in. ||Would happily stay at the BOOA next...
Read moreMy husband and I stayed at BOOA for 2 nights, and overall we found the experience very good. The accommodation is fantastic value for money, clean, comfortable, and only a few minutes walk from lake Bohinj. The room was basic and simply furnished, but included a small balcony, free WiFi, and access to a small kitchenette if we wished. The only minor thing I'd mention is the lack of soap and shampoo in the bathroom and flimsy toilet paper, but apart from that it was good value. ||||On a side note a few minutes walk away you can find many different eateries, but keep in mind they do close by 8pm. For a late night option we found the Pension Rozic next door to BOOA was pretty good for meals and drinks. All in all I would be happy to stay at BOOA...
Read moreVery lovely little place with friendly and caring owners. The rooms are clean, have enough space and you have a bathroom en suite with balcony. If you kindly ask for breakfast you will get a big and a nice variety of different pieces like bread (with cheese, salami, ham and turkey and spreads like tuna and a nutella-like), Jogurt, fruits, vegetables, eggs and Krapfen. You also have a shared kitchen where you can find everything you need to prepare your own meal (waterkettle, stove, microwave, pots, plates, cuttlery). The owners are very kind and make sure you feel well all the time. And you only have to walk 5 minutes to Lake Bohinj. We really enjoyed...
