What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Hotel Heritage occupies a Renaissance townhouse dating back to the 16th century; its thick stone walls now carefully restored to highlight more than 400 years of history.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Tucked along the cobbled lane connecting Jurčič and Novi trg, the front door sits moments from the Ljubljanica riverbanks.
The rooms
Modern oak furniture sits against exposed stone masonry, and windows look out over the red-tiled old town.
At the table
Breakfast spreads are served beneath vaulted ceilings and a floral mural, and the arched bar pours Slovenian wines.
How it began
Sixteenth-century publisher Fabijan Kirchberger lived here, collaborating with reformer Primož Trubar on some of Slovenia's first printed books.
