Pristava Lepena

Top choice in Bovec


This positively idyllic ‘hotel village’ is set in an Alpine meadow above the Lepena Valley. It's a small collection of rustic houses and rooms, run by a charming Slovenian-Uruguayan couple. In a beautiful setting, there's a pool, a high-quality restaurant (open to all), a sauna and a tennis court, and fishing and horse-riding opportunities.
