Nestled in a tranquil yet prime location, Hotel Mrak is lauded for its proximity to local attractions and serene atmosphere. Guests often rave about the delectable breakfast spread, featuring local cuisine, and appreciate the hotel's cleanliness and cozy rooms.
While the service receives high marks for its friendly and helpful staff, some guests have noted the rooms can be on the smaller side and may occasionally let in external noise. Despite this, the overall welcoming vibe and excellent amenities, including a cherished bar, make it a popular choice among visitors.

I think the best thing about the Mrak are the staff, from the desk attendees who provide directions and recommendations, to the breakfast staff who take orders, to the room staff who provided extra towels and shampoo.
The Mrak is a small, clean and modern (or recently renovated) hotel which is very close to the centre of town. Our second floor room faced a courtyard, and while the room was tight, I've been in smaller.
The breakfast service is excellent and well worth including in your booking. Lots of pastries, fresh buns and croissants, cheese and meats, fish, fruit, and good coffee. Plus you can order eggs in pretty much every form you could want, including eggs Benedict, plus ham, bacon or sausages.
The front desk staff recommended a restaurant the first night (the Figoveca), stopped us going to the Friday food fare which had been cancelled, told us how the air-conditioning and towel rack worked in the room, and were generally just very helpful. In fact, these staff also communicated with us before we arrived to let us know the hotel shuttle was not operating and recommended Go Opti shuttle service.
I have only a couple of issues to mention; first we had some confusion over whether we had prepaid or not (I think it was miscommunication with our travel agent but its worth knowing before you arrive), second the restaurant was closed probably because of COVID (I have hoped to eat there one night), and third there were no tissues in the room. I know the latter is minor, and curiously few hotels in the Adriatic countries seemed to have a box of tissues in the room?
That said, I would wholeheartedly recommend the Mrak if you are staying in Ljubljana.

We enjoyed a five-day stay at the Hotel Mrak and found the hotel, room, and staff excellent. Our room was nicely appointed, great shower and bathroom, very comfortable bed and bedclothes. VERY clean. Staff helpful and kind. The hotel breakfast is pricey, but extensive and delicious if you want a large breakfast. We found nearby cafes excellent for just a coffee/croissant. The location could not be better for seeing Ljubljana on foot, or by using the close-by and efficient bus system. Quiet location, and easy walking to great museums, markets, and cafes. All around a great hotel and I recommend and would stay there again.

Friendly, family-run small hotel perfectly located a short walk from everything. Excellent personal communication from room request to booking through to check out. Spotless recently-renovated rooms. It was clear that Nina the manager and her staff truly do care about their guests' experience. Ample breakfast with fresh local produce. The airport pickup they arranged also went perfectly and I would suggest this or a shuttle service and NOT using the taxis at the airport, which charge 2-3 times the hotel taxi. I would not hesitiate to stay at Hotel Mrak again and hope I have the chance do do so.

Comfort double room booked in March for a stay in May at the "modest" price of 660 euros for 3 nights, breakfast included. Requests: double bed and room without carpet (asthmatic person). Check in at 6.30pm, tired after 10 hours of travel and various visits, we receive a room with separate, unmade beds, a dirty bathroom with urine stains, blood and pubic hair. We immediately ask for a room change, the receptionist, very kind like all the rest of the staff, tells us that they have no other rooms available, offers us an old, lower level room with carpet, which we refused. At this point he contacts the manager and after a while we are told that we can cancel and go to another facility. The receptionist helps us find another hotel or apartment, calling a facility but no availability found. Once 8.30pm is reached, at the suggestion of the hotel manager, the receptionist is invited to clean the bathroom, leaving only 5 minutes from the desk. According to him, he sprayed disinfectant on the sink and toilet. To avoid sleeping on the street, we buy gloves and cleaning products in a nearby supermarket and clean the room ourselves. We request a partial refund (denied) but in exchange we are offered a mini bottle of Slovenian sparkling wine with 2 glasses, with an apology note. We appreciate the gesture but decline (we are teetotallers). The next day they push the beds together and apparently clean up the room. Holiday definitely started off on the wrong foot. Good location, close to the centre, breakfast poor in choice and quantity, you save a little because hot dishes are offered (eggs, omelettes or crepes with Nutella or jam). Ps. only one type of yogurt and only one type of jam (raspberries?), little fruit, some cold cuts. Excellent automatic coffee/cappuccino/latte machine Sufficient external soundproofing, slightly less internal. The window that can be opened, but it's better not to, overlooks engines that work day and night

Spent 5 nights here over two stays on each end of my trip to Slovenia. Rooms were comfortable and quiet. Location was terrific, a couple blocks to the pedestrian only zone in old town, and just a bit over 5 minutes on foot to the river promenade. Nice breakfast spread which includes a cooked to order selection. They also serve a very good, reasonably priced lunch with just two selections daily, one is vegetarian. There is a nice cafe a couple of doors away, and several other places to eat nearby.
The staff, on duty 7AM-10PM, were very helpful whenever needed. I particularly would like to recognize Matjaz for going above and beyond the call of duty. I had an appointment that was about a 35-minute walk, and it was raining very hard. They booked me a taxi, but 10 minutes after the scheduled pickup time they called and said it was in an accident and it would be over an hour before a replacement would be available. As soon as he finished checking in a group, Matjaz asked the manager to cover the front desk and drove me to my appointment in his own car. It saved my appointment that was the primary reason I stayed that extra day in Ljubljana. Thank you Matjaz!

Breakfast had good variety of local specoialities and was served with genuine hospitality. Standard double room was small for two adults for five nights, possibly intended for one person only. The room was very quiet, only the airconditioning made some noise. One lamp in the staircase was broken upon arrival. The staff went to see it after I informed the receptionist about the problem, but the lamp was still broken last morning of our stay. The staff gave an impression that they tried their very best, though.

This hotel is very well situated, has very modern and well appointed facilities, and the staff is very friendly. The breakfast is well varied and suited my tastes. The rates are very reasonable. Unfortunately, my room was in a shadow area off the Wi-Fi signal so my connection was very bad or inexistent. The hotel staff is aware and and said they will install an additional Wi-Fi router. I would definitely stay there again!

Lovely, small hotel in the centre of Ljubljana. We had reserved one of the parking spaces in front (an extra charge) before our stay. Room was comfortable and quiet and breakfast was great fun with a blackboard menu and/or a buffet, with many of the ingredients labelled with their producer's name (eg, a farm). Staff were very welcoming and helpful with loading the app for the front door, which is locked at 10pm. With no staff on site overnight the app is an insurance in case you forget/lose your key. For us, Hotel Mrak was a perfect base for our sight-seeing on our first visit to Ljubljana.

I stayed here a couple of weeks for work. The staff is very friendly, the rooms are nice and i especially like that at breakfast you can order pancakes or different kinds of eggs and then they make them for you, instead of a buffet where everything is already made. Locations is also lovely. Next door is a sweet french cafe and you walk right into the city centre.

A very pleasant surprise. Centrally located, only 5 minutes from the centre, river and university., tastefully decorated and very modern with great service from all the staff. Check in was very welcoming quick, efficient. Nothing was toom muchb trouble. Lift to all floors.
Room modern with desk and two twin beds next to each other although I requested a double. Clean and functional. En suite somewhat small but was ok for us with shower, hot water and plenty of towels.. Cannot complain of anything in the room or hotel as everything was positive. The big surprise was the breakfast which was both hot and cold with alot of local and home made ingredients. Eggs were exceptional, best ever tasted. Attention to detail was obvious. This surpassed most 4 * hotels I have stayed in and will return. Highly recommended and exceptional value for a 3* hotel.
