Latest Celje hotel reviews
croisbeauty Says: Panoramic view at the band of river Savinja, the picture was taken from the castle hill. In a bright sunny days view from the castle hill is fantastic, almost ten kilometres far away. That's why the castle had so big strategic importance and was almosr invincible in its...
eden_teuling Says: A PLACE FOR HEALTH, REST AND RELAXATION.People have been coming to this place for a very long time!It was known to the ROMAN LEGIONS; during the Middle Ages it was visited by missionariesand towards the end of the 19th Century it became a cosmilolitan resort for famous...
bonio Says: Attracted here by the Alma Karlin exhibition. In a beautiful old building there's displays of the history of the area and a collection of paintings, furniture etc, all moderately interesting. On the other hand really enjoyed the Alma Karlin exhibition, information about her...
bonio Says: Born in Celje there's a statue of her on Krekov Trg, just over the road from the railway station.An exhibiton of her works and travel at the Regional Museum is fascinating and well worth a visit. (tip later)
bonio Says: High on a mountain overlooking Celje this is a fantastic place to visit. Luckily a clear Autumnal day for us and views over the city and surrounding areas breathtaking. Castle itself is partially restored and you're pretty much free to wander around the grounds at will once...
bonio Says: Lucky enough to arrive in Celje soon after the first issue of this free guide. It's given away in hotels, restaurants and also the Tourisit Office.There's lots of good local info in it and a decent map, we found it very useful.
Redang Says: The Celje Municipal Savings Bank was built in neo-renaissance style by the Celje Municpal Savings Bank, and for some years, it hosted the headquarters of the administrative court for the territory of Slovenia.
Redang Says: Built in neogothic style between 1.905 and 1.906, it was the former German House and the centre of the german population of Celje. After the 1st World War, it was renamed as The Celje Hall (Celjski Dom).
Gostilna Mlakar: Gostilna Mlakar
bonio Says: Spotted this one in the "In your pocket" guide and arrived just as a large party were leaving - goos timing.It's pretty much a comfortable local pub and serves great food. Big plate of tasty cevapcici for me and another vegetable plate for Mrs B, both enjoyed immensely....
Gostilna Amerika: Worth finding
bonio Says: A little out from the centre, just opposite a shopping centre.Anyway, a real treat here, fantastic food, just what we like, raznjici for me and a special vegetable plate for herself with ajvar and the wonderful bread only found in this part of the world. Lasko beer on offer...
Redang Says: Some road distances to Celje from:- Split (Croatia): kms.- Wien (Austria): kms.- Rotterdam (Holland) kms.- Madrid (Spain): 2.143 kms.Checking the website, you’ll find more road distances together with the driving times and the best routes.
Mikebond Says: Celje is located along the motorway and railway axis connecting Ljubljana to Maribor, so it is easy to reach it. There is at least one train every hour to both cities. This photo shows the Celje railway station.
Mikebond Says: I wondered if I should put this tip in the "transport" section, but then I realized it wouldn't be useful to anyone wishing to visit Celje.This truck, which Nat (b1bob on VT) says to be a Model T Ford truck from the 1920s, is parked outside Hotel Evropa. I don't know what it...
Mikebond Says: Shapes of predator birds are often sticked on transparent surfaces to keep smaller birds away and to prevent them from crashing into the glass. However, I had always seen these stickers on the roads, never at a bus stop. Celje is really a bird-friendly town!
cro_gavran Says: There is very good hiking path to the castle just a mile from the city centre, but it is not useable during the winter, because its frozen, so you can get seriously injured by falling down on frozen ground, somewhere even few meters deep...
CatherineReichardt Says: The Logar valley is an enchanting place, and we succumbed to the first of its many attractions as soon as we turned into the valley and encountered a herd of these amazing cattle grazing in a field just by the road. I have no idea what breed they are, but we immediately...
Experience a Slovenian slap at the Rinka waterfall
CatherineReichardt Says: I am not a great linguist at the best of times, and so it is disappointing (but unsurprising) that I found Slovenian less than accessible. However, there is one word that I had no trouble in picking up: 'slap', which means waterfall. It is such an onomatopoeic word (one...
Visit the exquisite Logar valley (Logarska dolina)
CatherineReichardt Says: Put simply, the Logar Valley is a strong contender for the most beautiful spot that I've yet had the privilege to visit.One reads a great deal about the beauty of the Julian Alps around Bled - and indeed they are - but there seems to be less written (in English at least)...
Paisleypaul Says: The Arena Petrol is currently - to my knowledge - the national stadium but I believe this may change as the one in Ljubljana is undergoing a facelift.Great ground with a large cineplex and bars/diners adjacentBeer and burgers on sale inside the ground - believe the beer is...
Celje In Your Pocket: highly recommended!
CatherineReichardt Says: I have HORSCHECK to thank for introducing me to the 'In Your Pocket' series of tour guides, which we first had the opportunity to 'road test' in Tallinn (when the hotel we stayed in provided a copy of Tallinn In Your Pocket in each room).For my money, it's a much more useful...

Celje & the things you never read about
Celje is certainly not on the itinerary of the average visitor to Slovenia. Though conveniently at the halfway point between cross-country rivals, Ljubljana and Maribor, forgotten number three Celje...
