It is too noisy, but that was because of the location of the room

“Nice, quiet and realxing accommodation in old monastery”
Great and nice location in Kamnik. The monastery is very quiet with nice view of mountains around Kamnik. We enjoyed also breakfasts that were provided earlier than usually based on our request. We really appreciate hospitality of this accommodation and staff. We'll come back again.

“For a hostel it definitely had the wow factor.”
The fact that you are in a monastery in the hills with the view is fantastic. We met another family at the property and felt like we had space to eat and chat together.

“A wonderful stay in a historic and scenic monastery.”
Wonderful location in a historic monastery. I came on holidays to take a break from work and the hostel and town were a balm to the soul. The hostel was clean and quiet and breakfast was delicious. The cook was very kind and accommodating. The showers were great and the gardens were gorgeous!

“An unforgettable experience”
What an experience! Staff was very responsive, kind, and informative. They were extremely helpful and accommodating despite our check-in/out outside of office hours. We were nevertheless greeted in person and received plethora of useful information about the accommodation, facilities, and trips. Room was spacious, comfortable and clean. There is even a small kitchenette with a fridge and a kettle in the hallway. Bus stop 50 m away.

“Peaceful location outside of the city”
A great opportunity to spend a couple of nights in this former Monastery. - such a peaceful location - I had the best night's sleep ever. Around 15 minutes walk from the centre of Kamnik, which is a charming little.town about an hour from Ljubljana. Helpful staff (I even got a pickup from the bus station, since I was running slightly late). Fabulous Balkan restaurant near bus station. - the best salads ever, that I felt they were definitely worthy of a mention!
