Rates:
If I've listed three sets of rates, separated by slashes, the first price is for
peak season (mid-July-late Aug), the second is for shoulder season (June-mid-July
andlateAug-Sept),andthethirdisfortherestoftheyear(thoughsomeratesgoeven
lower in winter). The dates for seasonal rates vary by hotel, and prices can change
without notice; verify the hotel's current rates online or by email. For the best prices,
always book direct.
Price Ranges:
To help you sort easily through these listings, I've divided the ac-
commodations into three categories based on the price for a double room with bath
during high season:
$$$ Higher Priced
—Most rooms €90 or more.
$$ Moderately Priced
—Most rooms between €60-90.
$ Lower Priced
—Most rooms €60 or less.

by well-traveled Mitija (who named the place for “Mother Earth” in an Incan language).
The 10 rooms, just a block off Tartini Square, are modern, woody, sleek, small, straight-
forward, and well-priced. They share a multilevel terrace out back, in the shadow of the
town bell tower (Db-€60, likely €10 more in July-Aug, no breakfast, air-con, free Wi-Fi,
lots of stairs, Trubarjeva 8, tel. 05/918-3495, mobile 041-776-576,

,
$$ Bogdan and Jana Bevk

terraces; both are buried in a quiet part of the Old Town. As they live elsewhere, call when
you arrive so Bogdan can meet you and take you to the apartment (Db-€60/€50/€40, €10
more for newer apartments with sauna, 50 percent more for 1-2-night stays—though this is
sometimes waived in slow times, no breakfast, air-con, free Wi-Fi, lots of stairs, discount

). They also have a much bigger, two-room apartment closer to
Tartini Square (€120/€100/€80).
