Setting and arrival
I arrived from Zagreb in the evening and was checked in promptly. The hotel is close to the main attractions and the city centre.
The rooms
Most of the 214 rooms are Deluxe and Executive Rooms, richly decorated in a contemporary style, with free internet, flat-screen TV, minibar, safe and magnificent views of the mountains and city, plus a pillow menu. Executive Rooms and suites include two hours in the sauna at the Sense Wellness Club, and the Presidential Suites have a private jacuzzi and sauna. Bathrooms are spacious, with dark stone counters and high-end fittings; my room also had a guest bathroom by the entrance.
Dining and facilities
Gourmet restaurants and a bar cater to guests, and the conference facilities can host large events.
The verdict
Excellent professional service and five-star-quality rooms make the Austria Trend a strong choice in Ljubljana.
