About

Exe Lev

Exe Lev is an informal, 4-star hotel set in Ljubljana's business district, about a 20-minute walk from the castle and a short stroll to the centre. It offers 34 rooms, many looking out over the park, and a 24-hour reception for flexibility.

The hotel pairs comfortable, modern rooms with practical touches: free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a minibar, and tea and coffee facilities. Guests can also use the fitness centre, arrange car hire or tours, and dine in with in-room breakfast or the on-site bar.

Breakfast is a highlight – a real spread with fresh fruit and warm pastries, according to guests. The location also earns praise for being close to the centre and the train station, yet still quiet.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Great location for exploring — Guests consistently praise the hotel's position – close to the centre, the train station and the castle, while still being in a quiet area.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms and cleanliness could be more consistent — While many guests are satisfied, the rooms and cleanliness category scores lower than other aspects, suggesting variability.
  • Limited on-site dining — Besides breakfast and the bar/lounge, the hotel doesn't have a full restaurant, so dinner options are limited to room service or outside venues.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this hotel won't work – the policy is explicit.
  • Parking is available but not specified — The hotel offers parking, but no details on cost or availability are provided, so you may need to confirm directly.

“Everything was great overall – a fantastic two-night stay. The double room was lovely, with a private safe, central heating and key-card entry. The bed was exceptionally comfortable and the staff were excellent. The location was very convenient, just a 4-6 minute walk from an art museum.”
