    The receptionists were friendly, the ladies in the wellness area were extremely kind. We were given a room in which the toilet smelled because, I assume, of the chemical agent used for cleaning, so it was still impossible to stay in that room, we asked the reception for a new room, they checked the previous one and in the shortest possible time received a new one, compliments. The room was pleasant, beautiful, clean. Breakfast in the hotel is standard, the ambience of the hotel is nice. The pool and sauna are clean, the space is pleasant. We were satisfied.

    The pool was always the main attraction for us, but now the opening hours at 11 and closing at 20h are making our stay less satisfying. It should open an 8 and stay open until at least 21h. Also the whirlpool full of stones and not in use any more? Weird.

    We love the whole hotel and have been enjoying our stay there always, from over a decade ago.

    Bakery products could be fresher. Doughnuts and bagels were very dry and stalled, around eight in the morning. Mattresses didn’t suit us, they were thinner in the middle. So we didn’t get good rest.

    Our room was very big and spacious. Breakfast area is cosy and there is good choice of food. Staff is very nice. There is garage.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Habakuk Hotel, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience! From the moment we checked in, the staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring that every aspect of our stay was perfect. One of the highlights of our visit was undoubtedly the breakfast. Each morning, we were greeted with an extensive selection of delicious, freshly prepared dishes. The variety and quality of the food were outstanding, providing the perfect start to our day. The spa at Habakuk Hotel was another remarkable feature. It was beautifully designed, creating a serene and tranquil atmosphere that was ideal for relaxation. The facilities were top-notch, and the range of treatments offered allowed us to indulge in some much-needed pampering. Overall, our stay at the Habakuk Hotel was a delightful experience. The combination of excellent service, delicious food, and luxurious spa facilities made it a trip to remember. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a high-quality, rejuvenating getaway.

    Lightning smog in the room, light from balcony shining via glass door to the room all night, air condition panel shining also.

    Staying after reconstruction was very fine. Concierge, lobby, wellness are very comfortable, staff very helpful and surrounding better and more beauty and more vital than was till 2019.

    The next chapter for Maribor?

    Generally, the hotel is well-maintained, barring a few tiny drawbacks that arise with every renovation (the stunning colour combinations are very delicate). The hotel breakfast meets the expectations of a four-star hotel. We only wished there was more creativity in dish presentation and that the menu included more local cuisine. In modern hotels, there is no room for outdated printed hotel guides. We believe the hotel should promptly digitalise all information and include data about the tourist offer in the hotel surroundings.

    The hotel was in dire need of a thorough renovation, both technology-wise (kitchen, restaurant and wellness) and architecture-wise. If you ever stayed at Habakuk Hotel in the past, you will now enter a hotel with a distinctly different character. The architecture, design and quality of materials are premium and could easily be mistaken for a five-star hotel. That is - when guests stay in the renovated rooms. With the new architectural look, the management now has an excellent platform on their hands that they can build on. Still, everything depends on the staff, who should go the extra mile to make the hotel one of Slovenia’s leading. The refurbished hotel heralds good news for local event organisers. Just a few steps away from pristine nature and the diverse offer of Maribor and Pohorje Mountains, Habakuk Hotel seems ideal for incentive groups. Maribor thus has a timely opportunity to reestablish itself as a competitive incentive destination. Finally, the value for money at Hotel Habakuk is good. The prices are lower than in other Slovenian meeting cities. Maribor has a great answer to the rising prices of hotel accommodations elsewhere. We hope it stays that way. The well-equipped wellness and spa centre is one of the greatest advantages. The spacious indoor pool stretches 740 square metres. In this beautifully designed pool, you can relax after a long day. The saunas, easily the best in this part of Slovenia, enrich the offer. Not having to queue for the saunas is another benefit. If possible, opt for the renovated superior rooms. They will amaze you with their spaciousness and unusually colourful interior. The furniture is easy on the eye, gleaming in sky-blue hues and pairing seamlessly with the wooden elements and ornate pink details dominating the corridors.

    The quality of some of the products served at the breakfast buffet could be improved though. Maybe less is more in this case. The pool or at least parts of it are not heated. The sauna area lacks proper cold showers. The old backside of the hotel which is rarely visible is currently under reconstruction. If this is finished in style then the hotel has 5* potential.

    Very nice hotel with a well designed interior concept. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Comfortable rooms with everything included. Couldn't ask for more. Spacious parking garage and luggage service. Breakfast with an overwhelming amount of options. Relaxing lounge and bar area with a good selection of beverages. Great pool area which is suitable for adults, kids and babies alike. The saunas are excellent.

    The TV chanels were not that interesting, the entrance fee for the spa center for our kids (2 and 3 years) was 15 Euros each! For adults was 20 Euros. We were on the last/fourth floor, the the elevator button was broken there so we couldnt call the elevator to come. The other elevator was broken and not functional.

    Spatious room with a perfect view, bright room with many big mirrors, automatised curtains, large screen TV with lot of(not so interesting chanels, but adult chanel was unlocked :)), comfortable King-size-bed and extra bed in a small room next to ours, baby bed was on available on request as well. Spa center with polls with warm water and a few saunas were nice. Good breakfast(buffet) and nice bar. Garage was available too. And all of that just 50 meter away from ski lift and a lot of bars/fast food restaurants.
