Reviews for Residence Apolonija Guest House
Review 1:Great place for a weekend gateaway. Rooms are super clean and the furnishing is so adorable. Breakfast is delicious. Highly recommend this place. I Would say it's a "home away from home".
Review 2:There is no elevator. They do not accept credit card Wifi was not stable A bit hard to find the place
Review 3:Very nice owners Nice place Good breakfast Final impression: very good, a bit expensive
Review 4:Nothing. The only inconvenience is that we got later than the official time to check in and it took us few minutes to contact the owner, but it wasn't long. Great location if you land in Treviso airport and plan to go to Slovenia.
Review 5:Ver clean room and cozy surrounded by nature. They prepared an amazing breakfast for us which was included in the price of the room. The guesthouse is calm and quite, very close to Škocjan caves, Lipica, Postojna, Predjama castle... A very good choice.
Review 6:Only a couple of tiny details, which really would not detract from a lovely stay: no soap dish, nowhere to keep the hand towel by the sink and no hair dryer. Really not deal brakers though.
Review 7:We were most fortunate to be upgraded (at no extra cost) but peeping in other doors it looked as though all the rooms were lovely. The breakfasts were great but the evening meals were outstanding, though it was a little unnerving not to be able to choose from a menu. We were told in plenty of time what the menu would be should we choose to eat elsewhere and as each course arrived, Manuela described what Marissa, her mother, had cooked for us. Each course was made and delivered with care and passion for local produce and delicious food. My advice is not to try other local eateries - nothing compares.
Review 8:Navigation can take you somewhere else nearby. I recommend to contact the owners to help and explain the way better.
Review 9:Very quiet place near the forest and very close to the highway. Lots of parking space. The rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. The staff is very friendly and hospitable. Breakfast was very tasty and nicely served. I would definitely stay there again.
Review 10:Payment is accepted only in cash.
Review 11:Great location for nature lovers and those who plan to visit the surrounding sights including Lipica, Prostojna and many other caves or simply go to Trieste for a dinner. Tasty organic breakfast served by a very attentive hostess. Spacey and authentically decorated rooms.
Review 12:Many people working in the tourism industry should come to this cosy place in order to learn a bunch of good things on how to handle guests and make feel them welcome anytime. It is also an amazing experience to feel the passion the family running the place put in this guest house on daily basis ready to deliver an excellent service and comfort to anyone.
Review 13:the wifi made some problems. not close to anywhere only if you get there by car (lipica or the caves)
Review 14:very nice owners, very special breakfest, fantastic place!
Review 15:The only gripe we could have is that Wifi didn't work in the room we were in. We had to walk down the corridor to get a connection.
Review 16:The food was amazing, a lot of it grown in their garden. Rooms beautifully furnished. Staff helpful and friendly.
Review 17:Toiletries a bit on the mean side. Towels very hard and no in-room fridge. Only a shared floor fridge which someone took drinks belonging to us.
Review 18:Food was excellent both dinner and breakfast. Staff friendly.
Review 19:Everything.We stayed for quite a few days and were sad to leave.The hosts were lovely the food and room excellent and the location great for tourist trips around the region.
Review 20:We bought coffee in the afternoon and it was perfect. The breakfast coffee had a burnt taste.
Review 21:We liked the well decorated little hotel. The hosts tried to do their best.
Review 22:absolutely nothing
Review 23:The friendliest staff we ever seen and very welcoming. Breakfast was on the highest level (good variety, nicely prepared with a personal touch) and you get to be served instead of a usual buffet.
Review 24:Wer Ruhe und beste Kulinarik sucht, ist hier richtig: -) Kleinod in ruhiger Umgebung -) ausgezeichnete Küche -) hervorragendes Frühstück -) angenehme Betreuung
Review 25:We hoped that some amenities would be replenished daily but to be fair, there was a cupboard that we did not check which might have had spares.
Review 26:The rooms looked wonderful and were very comfortable. Location was convenient to visit Lipica Stud Farm, the Postolnja caves and the Sckojan caves.
Review 27:We had no complaints about anything.
Review 28:All of it! The room was charming and comfortable. The proprietor was helpful and accommodating. The food surpassed any five star restaurant in New York City in presentation and flavor. This is a worthwhile stop no matter where you are in Slovenia!
Review 29:We have booked the economy double room, so as expected, was not spacious... But overall, this can not spoil the nice impression of this hotel. Everything is nice, taken with care.
Review 30:Everything including the bath in the bedroom...breakfast included home goodies ...daughter spoke good English and even had breakfast ready at 6am because I had an early start...
Review 31:Some wooden chips were falling of the wooden ceiling, but the ceiling looked so good that we didn't mind.
Review 32:Staff made us feel at home. Residence is located in the middle of a forest, so you will get very nice view from your room. Rooms and bathroom were very clean and spacious. Decorations added a nice touch. Breakfast was delicious, must try homemade apple marmalade!
Review 33:Bathroom is maybe in the winter time little bit to cold.
Review 34:I stayed there with a friend for 4 nights. Manuela, the owner is a wonderful friendly person and always looking, that her guest feel well. Her mother is a great cook and the food was wonderful. Would come back any time
Review 35:Nice family residence, very nice, cosy. Contemporary and traditionally designed. The breakfast with homemade fresh dishes, a delight for all senses!! Strongly recommend!!
Review 36:The economy double room is not spacious, so if you have a big luggage, you have the problem. In the wardrobe we have found only four hangers. In the toilet we did not have enough toilet paper. The small omissions that can not spoil the nice impression of this family hotel.
Review 37:The location, cleanness, staff are OK!
Review 38:Nice and cozy rooms, super friendly staff, great food. Convenient location close to the Italian border and to the caves in Slovenia. Excellent value for money
Review 39:heartwarming stay in clean, beautiful and huge rooms. Perfect breakfast with self-made bread and jams and local food. Great 4 course dinners worth much more than charged. If I could give 11 out of 10 points, I would! Looking forward to come back. Our navigation didn´t know the address: you find it when exiting Smarje directly on the man road.
Review 40:Very nice place conveniently located and easy to find with a car.Room was very spacious, modern, clean elegant and comfortable with cable tv and wi fi that worked well. Owners were very friendly and do things to a high standard.The in house restaurant is fabulous.The food is excellent and better than some international 4* hotels I have experienced.This coupled with the great local wine makes it very,very nice.Then the next day ...breakfast...4 light courses but very professionally done .Only 2 hours from Venice and literally 10 minutes to the Italian border this is just a great place to stay.Highly recommended.
Review 41:I had a fantastic time. The family who owns this guesthouse are verykind and accommodating people. The breakfast comes out in four courses(not a buffet, its better!) and the dinner is the same (with the fourthcourse being dessert). I would highly recommend this place for anycouple or anyone who just wants to have a nice relaxing time while inSlovenia. Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay!
Review 42:during breakfast or diner, coffee or soup was not warm enough! (work with warm plates). Not important when you see the whole picture
Review 43:perfect location between trieste, ljubjana, venice, koper. nice B&B (clean, spacious, good service, perfect diner and breakfast). don't hesitate when you visit slovenia or north-italy: one way back: apolonia!
Review 44:Very worm owners. This is the place with the greatest service I had in different places. Great dinner with great local wine recommended by the owner. The breakfast, served by the owner was on the level of minimum 5 starts. If I will be in this area, I for 100% would stay there.
Review 45:Bathroom arrangement affords little privacy as glass wall looks into the bedroom.
Review 46:The welcome from the owner. Dinner and breakfast were very good - high quality and plenty to eat. Room comfortable and clean allowing a very good sleep. Wi-Fi worked well.
Review 47:It's not related to the hotel, but the GPS sent us to the wrong entrance to the house. Don't follow the GPS directions if it indicates you to get into small streets. The hotel is nearby a main road. Inside the room, wi-fi connection was quite poor
Review 48:The owners were really friendly. We got an upgrade for free. The room was really nicely decorated, clean and new. Very comfortable mattress. Breakfast was really good, with home made and fresh products.
Review 49:Too few wardrobe hangers for a longer stay, fresh shampoos and gels but no soap, spa bath had run out of disinfectant in the spa system so produced a scum until it had been run through. Wi-fi connection was temperamental.
Review 50:An unusual stay with the owner taking personal interest in our comfort and needs. Large beautifully arranged room. Food and drink was exceptional with unexpected variety at breakfast and excellent menu choice available for guests in the evening. Good location for exploring (Lipica, Piran and the Skocjan caves).
Review 51:Absolutely lovely rooms - great breakfast and dinner - delicious food & wine - private atmosphere - high class service and a very helpful owner Manuela. This guesthouse is outstanding and recommandable.
Review 52:Wifi didn't work in the room, only in common area.
Review 53:The setting, the owner, the room, the fish meal, the quiet. Manuela is the most pleasant innkeeper we have ever met. Her mother is the chef de cuisine and prepared us a multi-course fish dinner and a multi-course breakfast. All foods were handmade and local. This inn is a gem not to be missed.
Review 54:Nothing, i'll recommend it without hestitation if you have a car
Review 55:Room is well decorated, calm, clean, very chic Dinner cooked by the mum is excellent, really worth it. Breakfast is fresh, original and gives you a big boost If you have a car it is the perfect place too see around (Postojna, Skocjan, Lipica, etc...)
Review 56:Tv was hard to turn on,but we did not have a time for it anyway.Standard room was preety small.
Review 57:Design was great. Beds comfortable. Room very clean.breakfast delicious.nice sofas and chairs in front of the restaurant to sip some wine or water and to chat and chill out. The owner - she was lovely. Very hospitable and helpful.
Review 58:Very large value for money. Maybe the most clean accommodation of the south Evropa. All hotel and hotel rooms are absolutely clean with a new facility. Well confortable. The owners does services and cleaning every day, including bed linen and towels, if is need. Excellent English of owner. Luxury breakfasts. No problem parking.
Review 59:Nothing : everything is just perfect. We hope to go back there soon and enjoyed Manuela's mother cuisine.
Review 60:Everything ! From the outstanding design of the room, to the exquisite breakfast and the kindness of Manuela and her mother we loved everything. Manuela is a fantastic person. She will give you the best advices for the best food around and the nicest wines to taste with a delicious smile. The room are very spacious and luxuous. The furnitures and the design are incredibles : a pure heaven. We had no noise at all and we had very nice sleep. But let me give you a good exemple of the quality of the management : Few days after our booking Manuela send me an email saying that she will upgrade us because we are having two babies and she wanted to offered us the best possible comfort. Waow !!!! So to sum up if you are looking for the best place in the region : this is the place to go !
Review 61:I can say absolutely nothing.
Review 62:That was my fifth stay at this Hotel, the previous times for business:the latter for vacation with my wife. It would be too long list ofcompliments and good things to say, so: all excellent!
Review 63:Not to have been able to taste the restaurant, which looked superb. That only gives a reason to come back, especially as the new restaurant will be open everyday in the coming months!
Review 64:Where to begin? The owner is very friendly and it was nice to see her with her "little assistant" (her daughter). We felt like at home immediately. As the restaurant was closed that night, the owner told us about a restaurant in the next village: it was excellent too! Breakfast served at your table and was fantastic!
Review 65:wi-fi is weak
Review 66:The room are new, comfortable, well designed and very clean. The breakfast is a highlight. Make sure you plan a hour for that and you will enjoy every minute. The owners are very nice and gave us good recommendations for good restaurants and for places to visit.
Review 67:in booking there is no difference to see, but not all rooms have a bath tub as written in booking and visible on the pics - only one room has this nice bath tub - so please ask for it when you make your booking
Review 68:all is great and top and Manuela is best host we had in a B&B thanks for the nice days and all the best for the future
Review 69:Very nice and helpful owner family Mixture of good comfort and unusual eclectic design Excellent quialoty of bed and bedware Breakfast is home made and good quality Proximity to Trieste, seaside, Postojna, Ljubljana One feels well takern care of as a client as as a person
Review 70:There is only one thing: the restaurant is leaded by a separate firm and since it is too closed to the rooms, in case of an evening program, the apartman is very noisy.
Review 71:Hospitability, design of the apartman, delicious breakfast.
Review 72:We had problems with the TV reception in the first room. For the evening meal, be prepared to wait a long time between courses. The food was nice but for the price it was not outstanding.
Review 73:Extremely friendly staff (as we were a family they upgraded us free of charge to a surperior room after the first night), lovely stylishly decorated rooms, very comfortable bed, lovely lavender flowers in front of the house. Breakfast was beautifully presented and very tasty. Parking was great. Easily accessible.
Review 74:The restaurant of the guesthouse was open only the week-end but a new one (just for clients) will open in one month... But in front, there are a very good restaurant of pizza ;-)
Review 75:The owner was so kind and has very good advise for our trip. This new guesthouse is very close to all caves, Lipica and the sea (Piran). But the best of the best is the athanlogy breakfast !
Review 76:The house is a fabulous location to visit the Škocjan Caves and the Lipizzaner horses farm, both attractions being really close. However, this place is not a mere base for activities but much more. The building has been restored and decorated with care - and the details with guests go much beyond the standard obligations of a high level guesthouse. The breakfast is gorgeous -prepared with local and home made products, often grown by the family- and the service fabulous. It is also worth to note that there is a restaurant -unfortunately we arrived too late to taste it but we heard nice words about. Conclusion: I recommend it without hesitation.
Review 77:Wifi was not available on our devices, iphone and ipad, unless we sat on the stairs beside the wireless router. As I am a New Zealander, I drink a lot of tea. I was initially dismayed to discover that there were no facilities for making my own in the room. This is standard in the UK and Australasia. I did appreciate the hot water being supplied when I asked for it.
Review 78:Manuela was the kindest and most gracious hostess we encountered in our 3 week trip. The four course breakfast was exceptionally delicious! I'm not sure if she overheard me wishing I could take some of the homemade cherry conserve to share with a friend we were yet to visit, or whether it was pure chance, but Manuela gifted us with a small jar as we were checking out.... Mmmm. The sweet memories of Guesthouse Apollonia were savoured in equal measure with the conserve. The Guesthouse is aesthetically charming and comfortable and we slept well in its quiet and peaceful surrounds; so important when exhausted and suffering jetlag. We are keen to reacquaint ourselves with Guesthouse Apollonia in the future.
Review 79:Nothing to report
Review 80:A fantastic base to visit caves and Lipica horse center. Manuela is very helpful and keen to ensure that our stay was both comfortable and memorable. Rooms are very cosy . Breakfest preparad by Manuela's mother is wonderfull. THis one is a succession of different plates including bread and jam, ham and chesse ´eggs....always with great presentation ( flowers)
Review 81:Beautiful house with history, comfortable beds and enough space, very good restaurant and breakfast service as well as excellent quality for what was paid for. Not to mention the generosity and kindness of Manuela and her family (she even sent back to us forgotten belongings! thank you again)
