Nice place but problem with honoring our booking
We made reservation for 2 rooms few months ago. On the morning of the check in we got a message from the owner that because of overbooking error on his part he has to change one room from a regular double bed to a 5 beds room, in the basement with bathroom and shower outside the room, for the same price! No discount! We were very frustrated because we booked the rooms a very long time ago and the owner chose to not honor our booking! Other than that the stay was nice. We were able to have our laundry washed, breakfast was nice and the girl who served it was very gracious and personable.

Disappointing stay
Let's start with the only positive : location, about 15 minutes away from lake Bled in a quiet little pretty town. From that point on, went downhill for us. We were fully aware that we had made a basement booking, but the conditions we met were quite poor in general. And if you consider the price tag attached, I would dare say rather appalling. The room was very humid. You could both feel it and smell it. Probably made worse by the fact that all the "wellness facilities" (aka sauna) and shared bathrooms were also located in the basement, creating even more humidity. We washed one of our baby's overalls and it did not dry in 2 days !!Decoration was peculiar at best, with a tiger and a naked lady wall paintings! Breakfast buffet. This is usually an easy way to compensate, but not in this case. Selection was very poor, some items (cereal) felt dated and coffee vending machine needs an urgent upgrade to dispense drinkable coffee. Lack of healthy options was noticeable. Customer service was also not great, with check in fully automated and little presence in the property. I cannot stress enough that the value for money received was tragic. That said, the surrounding area is beautiful. Amazing scenery!

Great for families
It was great. The family room was the perfect size and breakfast was AMAZING! The owner is super kind and welcoming. My only complaints are that the breakfast room is rather small and with COVID, it made me nervous and that you had to pay 5€/day extra for air conditioning.

This place was amazing. For starters, we got there a little late for check in and they were oh so kind about it. Next, we only ordered a two bed room, and they gave us an extra for no extra charge. And don’t even get me started on the breakfast. Best breakfast ever and amazing service they tend to every guest’s needs to the best of their ability. We had an amazing stay.

On vacation through the area with another couple, we stopped here for two nights and totally enjoyed ourselves. Owner and staff went out of their way to inform us of the area and to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. Highly recommend this as a stop if you're in the area close to Bled.

My room was spacious, very clean, the mattress comfortable, the location quiet. There was a wide selection of breakfast options. The lovely old historic part of Radovljica is an easy 10 minute walk.

This is an amazing place in a very nice residential area not far from Bled. Breakfast was fabulous. Only down side was that we couldn'd get room with two beds and a balcony so opted for balcony with great view of Alps.

Overbooked and sent elsewhere.
Rather disappointingly upon arrival at this hotel we were informed they had overbooked and we would have to relocate. This was frustrating given we had selected the hotel for its location. We had booked two weeks ahead and prepaid so the overbooking was unforgivable in my opinion. The hotel they relocated us to was perfectly fine but was located out of town meaning we had to drive to get anywhere. I would not recommend relying on this hotel.

Short car ride to Bled
This hotel was 15 minutes from Bled so very good for car travelers. It is located right next to a very beautiful and quaint old town center with great local restaurants. The host is fantastic and helpful. The breakfast is top-notch and includes homemade treats. We really lucked out in choosing this spot.

Surprising find- excellent
The room is very comfortable- the owner has gone to great effort with many small touches to make your stay comfortable- folder with brochures about things to see and do, toiletries etc. not what I expected from what seemed like very basic accommodation. The breakfast was amazing. We had eggs cooked fresh to our choice and the selection of foods was excellent. There was even a home made cake which we had to try as it looked so good- it was!! I would have stayed here longer has I known how good it was.

Nicest hosts on the planet earth!
The people who run the Pension Kovac are the nicest people I've met in the hospitality business. Period. They were super helpful. The keep the place spotlessly clean, offer a generous and delicious breakfast, and do all they can to help their guests enjoy their stay. One warning: we booked the lowest priced room and got the automatic hotel.com confirmation that the room would have a balcony and air conditioning available at 5 euros a day. We were given a lovely room, but it was in the basement and air conditioning was not really available. Even so, the owners did what they could to cool the room. You will love this place and these people.

Good Value Stay for a Couple of Nights
For the money, you cannot really complain, hotel was clean, well equipped and there was lots of variety at breakfast. The only thing to consider is location - it is in a quiet suburb of a sleepy town, which fine if you have a car, which we did, as a close drive to Bled and the 'motorway', but otherwise it is a 15 min walk to town then bus.

One night became 3
Stayed here for 3 nights last week of October. Original plan was for 1 night but the great service and location lead us to stay two more. We had a car and did say trips to Bled, Bohin, Tolmin, Stol and others. This location was great for access to all. And was 25 minutes drive to Ljubljana. Radovjica is also a great place to go see at night for some food and drink. We WILL be back.

Charming Pension near Bled
Pension Kovac is a charming place in a quaint town-Radovijica perched above the Sava River. There is a very charming Old Town with an interesting beekeeping museum. We walked to Bled(6 km) along the Sava River and then took the bus back. The Pension is clean and cozy in a quiet residential neighborhood within walking distance to the Old Town. Breakfast was very good and the owner very friendly and helpful.

Comfortable and quiet
Clean, comfortable, quiet, excellent breakfast included, friendly family-run management. Plenty of parking, too, a real plus in this part of the world. Only minor demerits: TV, even though flat-panel, was pretty well shot, lack of shower curtain makes showing an exercise in frustration. Use of on-premises sauna and whirlpool are NOT included, pricey.

Awesome, Peaceful, Clean and Comfortable Lodging
The hotel was great! The hotel is run as a family affair and the pride and attention to detail is on par with 4 and 5 star hotels. The location is perfect and the town, which is a 10 minute walk away is like stepping back 700 years. The resturants and people are awesome. Visit the ice cream store and you will be blown away by both the taste and prices. We stopped by the local church and the Priest gave us a jar of honey and talked our ear off. The breakfast at the hotel was great, prepared to order and all you can eat. I have nothing negative to say about our stay and will return!!

Great place. Very large room, and bathroom with a full tub. We pulled in at midnight and the he was waiting for us. The breakfast was had tons of options from home made danishes, a meat selection, muffins, various juices, coffee, and he even cooked us fried and scrambled eggs. The hotel right off the highway in a nice area. It's about a 10 minute drive from Lake Bled, so it's not easily walk-able. We were very happy with our stay there.
