Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

At all levels - pre-arrival, early arrival, check in, room choice, asking for directions, parking, breakfast, hot water showers, moving rooms, etc - this hotel and its staff exceeded our expectations! Good choice of breakfast, good areas to relax, good location to travel to the city.

This is a three-star value oriented hotel with good rates so I am reviewing it as such. It fit the bill well. They have free parking in the rear but it fills up quickly; nonetheless, like most European parking lots, improvisation will get you a space. So anyway it was great to have parking for our rental car. Location is a longish walk (30 minutes or so) to old town but we went to dinner at La Piazza about 10 min away and found it to be excellent. Checkin was friendly and efficient (they gave both points and free drinks for IHG shatus, which was nice) and the building is very new. Elevator is tiny, barely enough for two people with luggge, and rooms are also very tight. Very glad I booked a separate room for my son though I suppose a couple could manage with limited luggage space. The rooms are basic and simple but modern and very comfortable, good HVAC control, comfy bed. Single squeeze dispenser for soap next to sink and in shower; no other bath amenities provided. The big surprise was the breakfast. I usually hate breakfast at US HIX properties but this one was excellent for the category. Not a huge selection but just a very good quality level of tasty foods and fully staffed kitchen. As a vegetarian, I really enjoyed the hot sauteed mixed veggies, and the croissants and crepes were freshly made and good quality. Nice cheeses also. Food quality was as good as some of the four star hotels we've stayed in on this trip. Anyway, the value of this place is very solid and they outperformed my expectations for breakfast so I give them five stars if you are looking for a moderately priced, new and clean property and can deal with European style compact rooms.

The hotel is a little outside the city center. Everything is very quiet, no street noise and the hotel itself is also very quiet. The bus stop is 5 minutes away. You can get to the city, the train station and the bus station in about 15 minutes. The nearest restaurant is a good 10 minutes walk away. It is 2 bus stops away. There is also a large supermarket there. We got a room on the 1st floor and wanted to go further up, as stated on our reservation. As a coach had arrived before us, all the rooms were occupied. However, we were promised that we would get a room further up the next morning. It went smoothly and everything was handled very friendly and courteous. After breakfast we moved. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. We had a fantastic view over the rooftops to the mountains. There are 2 different pillows per person in the bed. In the room there is a kettle with tea and coffee making facilities. In the bathroom there is shower gel, shampoo and hand soap. Breakfast is a huge buffet with a wide selection of everything. Lots of fresh fruit (tons of delicious grapes and plums) and lots of fresh vegetables. The breakfast room is bright and friendly, with a large outdoor terrace. All of the staff are very friendly and helpful.

We stayed 2 nights on a fourth floor corner room. Although the room was small, it was very clean and very soundproofed.

There is a safe but no mini fridge.
The TV has limited English channels but there are spare input ports to plug in a streaming stick.

What we liked
+ Clean
+ Quiet
+ USB charging ports
+ Rain shower
+ very good breakfast with real china and silverware (compared to North America)

To improve
- Room maintenance (loose sink faucet, leaky shower hose, loose bathroom door handle)
- Tons of Pigeon bird feces on outside window ledge that would be easily accessible to clean but appears very old

The hotel is situated quite a distance from the centre of the city in a residential area. There is just one bus connection (its frequent, thankfully) to the centre, otherwise its a long walk. The hotel rooms are small, and those facing the street are noisy.
Breakfast is free for all guests and it had a wide selection of dishes. There is no restaurant attached to the hotel, and except for a small cafe, there is no food joint in the near vicinity.
Service staff was efficient and helpful.

I had a terrible experience with Holiday Inn Express Ljubljana, and I feel completely scammed. I had a fully paid reservation for October 24th-29th, booked through IHG, but without any notice, the hotel canceled my reservation without my authorization and never issued a refund.
When I contacted IHG, they claimed the cancellation was at my request—completely untrue. My only communication with the hotel was a simple inquiry about a refund due to a visa delay. They bluntly rejected it, and I accepted that decision, planning to reapply for my visa. However, they went ahead and canceled my booking without notifying me and then tried to blame it on a “customer request” that never happened.
To make matters worse, IHG has refused to help, saying they forwarded it to the hotel—but I never received any communication from the hotel, nor a single call or email explaining this decision.
This behavior has caused me a significant financial loss and disrupted my entire trip. I trusted IHG and Holiday Inn Express to handle my reservation fairly and professionally, but they failed me. This experience has been extremely disappointing, and I feel misled and cheated.
If you’re booking with Holiday Inn Express Ljubljana or through IHG, be cautious. Make sure to get everything in writing, and be prepared for unprofessional handling of your reservation. I wouldn’t want anyone else to go through what I’ve experienced.

Final part of the tour of Slovenia ends in the capital. The holiday inn express is a good value hotel in outscrits of city with free parking. Arrived early, but as a "Spire member" of the IHG rewards group was able to check in early:))

Hotel was clean and new with comfortbale twin beds & ensuite shower. Free wifi for IHG members. Breakfast was good for a holiday inn express with a good choice of opitions much better than some others in this group with "free" breakfast. Taking good care of covid requiring masks and gloves for food selection at the buffet breakfast (gloves provided). Don't think there is a dinner option so you would have to find somewhere in town, as we did, or somewhere nearby. There is a bar in the hotel.

Staff were really friendly and useful with tips, e.g. reduced taxi fare into town which was similar to 2 bus fares, which would require a stored value card to be brought.

As I said hotel is about ca 3 km (2 miles) out of the centre of town but the hotel has arranged a reduce taxi fare into town (4 Euros). Spent most of the day walking around the town before getting a taxi back, hot shower and crashing after a long day on our feet. A good night sleep in the beds:))

Ljubjana is a lovely city to walk around with losts of art nuevo and art deco buldings to see, if you like that type of thing. Lovely views of the city from the castle.

So if you want a functional, clean and modern hotel with free parking and accept a little walk or short taxi ride into town this is a good choice to stay in Ljubjana.

We spent 6 days there, room in the basement very deep in the ground, the small windows are 2 meters from the floor, very dark, carpet on the floor, not very hygienic, good size, no storage space, no fridge, 1 box, TV with several stations of different nationalities, no hot water problem, the air conditioning worked very little, it took 24 hours to cool (not cool) the room with noisy fan, I asked if it is the other rooms have the same problem, it's a central system, so if you suffer from hot flashes, avoid this hotel. Good soundproofing. Very friendly staff, decent breakfast, it would be a plus if there was a toaster. Hotel located approximately 35 minutes on foot or 15 minutes by bus from the old town. No parking problem even with the hotel full and it's free. Several restaurants within 15 minutes and grocery store 7-10 minutes on foot.

The hotel is located on the outskirts of Ljubljana, about half an hour's walk from the center; however, the number 14 bus also goes there.
The hotel is located directly on a large road, which you can unfortunately hear clearly in the rooms facing the street. We were kindly allowed to change rooms. It is much quieter on the parking lot side.
The rooms, beds and service were fine, but nothing special, just like the breakfast. The hotel is comparatively cheap.
Overall, nothing was annoying or missing; however, the next time we stay in Ljubljana, we will probably look for a more charming hotel closer to the center.

A pleasant, familiar and very quiet Express.
The cleanliness in general and in the room is to be appreciated.
The functional room with choice of pillows and a full bathroom with good products.
A breakfast with a good variety of choice and always tidy and renewed.
Parking included is a little small but if you arrive too late it is easily accessible.
