Hotel Rakar — Hotel in Trebnje

We were in the motorway going towards Ljubljana and we wanted to stop for the night.||We stopped in a nearby village and an owner of a pub recommended this nice Hotel.||It was not difficult to find it but we were lucky to find a vacancy and even parking on a Friday night as it is quite popular Hotel and Restaurant.||The person we first met on the Hotel was very helpful, spoke good English and gave us a nice room on the main floor.||Good bed and mattresses , we had a fantastic sleep really.All the amenities also provided in the room.

Stayed on a work trip and Mr Rakar made us feel as welcome as ever. He’s a fantastic host regardless of the time of day. We arrived late and will welcomed by the nice glow of light and the waiter who agreed to ask the kitchen to cook us some food.

I always sleep well at Rakar because it’s very quiet apart from the train that stops put side the window at about 5am (or at least it felt that time). The rooms are basic but comfortable and provide excellent...
