We stayed in Kranj on the night before our early morning flight home. We were looking for airport convenience, and if necessary, access to Ljubljana. After 2 weeks away, we weren’t sure if we wanted to head back into the city or simply relax for an afternoon and Kranj seemed like an ideal spot to do either. We were surprised by Kranj. We didn’t know anything about it, but it’s actually the 4th largest city in Slovenia and has a lovely pedestrian street and interesting architecture. Hotel Actum is located on this pedestrian street, but if you have a car, like we did, you are allowed to drive to the hotel parking area and will receive a voucher to leave.

The room was large and interestingly decorated—not our style, but we also appreciated the size along with the large bathroom. Hotel Actum receives this 4 star review from me because of the actions of the front desk employee: he graciously helped us with our luggage, booked us massages next door, gave us vouchers for the city's gym, and passed us along to an incredibly friendly waiter at the hotel’s restaurant who happily accommodated us for lunch and dinner. Even though we were there for only around 12 hours, we recognized and appreciated this hospitality. In fact, the hotel even offered us to make us breakfast before our early flight (we declined—it was too early to eat!). All in all, Kranj was a fun surprise at the end of our trip, and the Hotel Actum helped us complete our vacation in the most unstressed way possible.

The hotel is quite different from any other hotels. Its has some sense of a special mystical design in itself. The rooms are very nice. Although this in the old city centre everything looks new or refurbished. The hotel is also very clean.
The city centre is closed for the cars, but our driver was able to pick was right at the hotel.

We selected this hotel as it seemed to be easier to drive to the airport to drop off our hire car. What a surprise we received on arrival. The hotel is difficult to find due to the pedestrian streets but we parked outside and walked in first to get directions from Reception. The hotel has a small parking lot at the rear. The Receptionist could not be more helpful and we also received a room upgrade. The only downside may be that there is no elevator so don't bring in bulky suitcases! Breakfast was the best that we have seen in Europe with a full buffet.
