Hotel Maribor, City Apartments

We checked in one location but had to drag our luggage to a second location down an alley of cobbled stones closer to the river. We were rewarded with modern charming rooms decked with kettle, coffee maker, complimentary water and even a small bottle of red wine. Slept with the windows wide open in April as we can’t control the temperature of our room. Room was new, clean. Our room look different to the Internet photos. I guess the hotel has rooms with different configurations. Location is fantastic. Hotel located in the city centre.

To say this place was fantastic would be an understatement. The apartment was so new, clean, and beautiful we wished we had stayed another night (we were only passing through from Budapest to Prague). Parking is easily accesible once you send your car registration to the hotel which was tricky for us at first but we managed to find it and get it done. This was a very last minute booking and by far is the nicest place we stayed in during our 12 day European trip. Breakfast was superb as well.

Architecture and love for small details. It is amazing

False Advertising and Lies Honesty is important. We expect businesses we deal with to be honest about the products and services they sell. That’s how we’re able to make informed decisions. Hotel Maribor is not an honest business and so book there at your own risk. Among the amenities the hotel advertises is air conditioning. They even have modern-looking thermostats in the rooms that APPEAR to be the point from which the A/C is controlled. After a sleepless first night in our ridiculously warm room, we learned that the thermastats have no impact on the room temperature. The hotel maintains complete control over the temperature. If that’s not bad enough, though the hotel keeps its guest for controlling the temperature, it appears that their system for controlling the temperature is faulty. We spoke to the staff multiple times about adjusting the temperature and they claimed they were trying, but couldn’t. Finally, they told us they couldn’t do anything about it. They also told us they couldn’t put us in a different room because “all rooms were having the same issue.” So, we endured a warm room w/no A/C for 3 nights. You might think the hotel would feel that they needed to do something, anything to make up for such an inconvenience? Nope. When we checked out, not only was there no accommodation offered, there was only a lukewarm apology from a truly unpleasant staff member. What’s more…we were also informed that ours was the only room that experienced the A/C issue. So, were they lying then or now??

Outstanding accommodation in center of Maribor We stayed in a refreshingly modern 3-bedroom unit, which actually had 4 bathrooms. Friendly and helpful staff at reception, very clean, nice breakfast available in the lobby. Very convenient location within an easy walk of most every good attraction.
