Luka and Zara who are running this beautiful little hotel (only 5 rooms in a more than 500 year old house) are great hosts:
The hotel is very charming high up and right next wonderful hiking trails overlooking the stunning scenery of Slovenia. Everything is spotlessly clean (also entire Slovenia btw), Zara is cooking very tasty food with local ingrediences (large variety, very creative, strong healthy touch), the rooms are cozy/ luxerious (with home-baked biscuits and a large variety of teas & coffee) and Luka is the brain behind the hiking tours, partly run by him, partly they are run by other families members (son) or guides connected to the family.
we were hiking both in the area very close by and also further away (where a comfortable Mini-bus was taking us) - this let us see many different pitoresk areas of Slovenia (Lake Blad, Soriska Plania, etc.).
we learnt a lot about Slovenia and the culture both during the hikes and drives, but also very naturally during afternoon teas back at the hotels and after dinner.
Luka and Zara are really giving everything to make everyones stay superb, as they are having great experience from travelling themselves and have very different professional backgrounds, the exchange goes way beyond the "regular".
I highly recommend Pri Lenart run by Luka and Zara as a unique place to stay if you are out after coming to a lovely and exclusive home while experiencing superb hikes and food.
Thank you once again Luka and Zara

Pri Lenard is both a hotel and a magical experience. Zana and Luka are the consummate hosts, guides, cooks, companions who will take care of you end-to-end every hour of the week. We absolutely loved the hotel, the hikes, the meals and our fellow guests! The hotel is top notch. The rooms are large, carefully appointed, spotless and the housekeeping service there is the best we've seen anywhere (and we mean anywhere in five continents), Zana is a superb chef and the meals were well beyond expectation, with a careful sampling of Slovenian cuisine. The hikes were tailored and curated to the group's experience, the weather, and best opportunity for discovery.

This was a fantastic holiday, the walks were brilliant. The food was really tasty, we all enjoyed a 3 course meal every night with aperitifs and free flowing wine.
The rooms were ammuculately made up every day when we arrived back from the walks, with fresh biscuits and chocolates in the rooms.
Nothing is too much trouble for Jana and Luka they are amazing hosts. X

This has to rate as one of my best trips,. From the start, the Hotel, which I hesitate to call a ' hotel' as it was a beautiful traditional home. The location in the rolling hills, home cooking by Žana, accompanied by after dinner Schnapps with Luca, the walks and the company of the rest of the 6 guests couldn't have been better. Thankyou

Žana and Luka have hit upon the perfect combination of stunning location, superb organisation, wonderfully varied food and a welcome that is second to none. The hotel is small (with just 8 guests) and situated in an historic building typical of the area.
The guided walks are interesting, have an appropriate degree of challenge and give an opportunity to learn something of the history of Slovenia and the way of life experienced high in the mountains whilst puffing up the "Slovenian Flat" to the next viewpoint.
Žana is a genius in the kitchen with never a dull meal and Luka constantly on hand to administer beverages of every description. Eating an evening meal with a local farming family is an experience not to be forgotten; likewise the Schnapps at every opportunity!
Of course, none of this happens by accident and the high quality of the holiday and the happy faces of the guests is testament to the hard work and effort this lovely couple and their team of helpers put in to making our stay one that will stay long in the memory.

I have been planning my trip to Pri Lenart since 2019. During this period, correspondence with Luka was exceptionally prompt and professional
Pri Lenart surpassed my expectations. We walked through Alpine meadows with wildflowers, through forests and up mountains to spectacular views.
Upon our return, Zana would have cooked a cake for afternoon tea, a well-deserved treat, which we ate in ‘The Barn’, overlooking the meadows.
Every morning, a delicious breakfast was served, then Zana would tell us what culinary delights, she would be preparing for dinner.
Pri Lenart was built in 1682. It has five guest rooms. My room was a very spacious haven, after a long walk.
The most unique element of Pri Lenart is Zana & Luka treated us, as special guests.
It was a very personal, unique and memorable experience. Lucky me!

We has the most wonderful experience staying with Zana and Luka always so helpful, cheerful and informative, it was like being guests in a luxury private house, they couldn’t do enough for us . Every detail was exceptional, the absolutely delicious meals, all locally sourced food, wine, beautifully clean rooms with flowers , chocolates, tea, coffee etc . Every walk was expertly guided, we learnt so much about the country, wild flowers ,people, mountains, they were always looking out for the weather etc…we felt in very safe hands. As well as thoroughly enjoying their company, we were lucky enough to be part of a great group of like-minded people, we absolutely loved it. I highly recommend this holiday, we have such happy memories and felt fitter afterwards! If you are thinking about a walking holiday in Slovenia, I don’t think you could better this, it was phenomenal…. first class luxury ……❤️…..Caroline and Tony

Wow! Was our second time at Pri Lenart and was just as amazing as the first.
Where to begin? Maybe with our wonderful hosts Zana and Luka who provided for an unforgetable experience. They took us on daily hikes, fed us gourmet meals, and created such a fun and relaxed atmosphere in our group. It was like hanging out with close friends all week. And we learned a lot about the local history and culture.
The hikes were all beautiful, with varying terrain. Some in the valley and lower hills, which we usually started from Pri Lenart, and some in higher alpine terrain. You will be tired after each hike, but the anticipation of the afternoon cake, pre-dinner canapes on the terrace, followed by a gourmet dinner with Slovenian wine in the dining room, will keep you motivated. And the best part: despite all the food and wine I didn't gain any weight :).
Sad to leave our hosts and new friends at the end of the week, but hopefully we can return one day.
This is the perfect vacation if you, like me, enjoy hiking and the outdoors but want to end the day with a gourmet meal and sleep in a luxurious room.

We cannot praise Luka and Zana enough. To start with their hotel is quite beautifully restored and maintained. It is furnished to the highest standards, is spotlessly clean throughout and is in a great location within an authentic Slovenian farming village. Add to that the attention to detail by the hosts, whether it was in the planning and guiding all the walks or the quality of the catering, it was impossible to provide any criticism, constructive or otherwise. This is just a one off. They cannot do enough for you and only a visit will suffice

Our group had a wonderful time at Pri Lenart! From the moment we arrived, we felt the care and attention to detail to ensuring we had a great week. The hotel exceeded all expectations - the accommodations were spacious, luxurious, and spotless. We especially appreciated the small touches, like delicious cookies, plush robes, and lovely bathroom products. Dinner each night was a highlight. We got to try local delicacies as well as other continental fare, all served with interesting local wines and schnapps to finish. The walks each day provided gorgeous views and just enough challenge to make it interesting. But by far what distinguished this from other holidays was the hospitality of Luka and Zana, who were absolutely top notch hosts, ensuring we were well taken care of, guiding us on walks and sharing info on local flora and fauna, and helping us feel truly immersed in Slovenian culture. I would highly recommend a visit to Pri Lenart for anyone looking for a holiday that's a great mix of activity and relaxation.

We flew from Montreal to Vienna and rented a car and drove to Slovenia. Beautiful ride about 2-3 hours. Or you can fly to London and then to Ljubljana.
