Lower Carniola, Slovenia hotel rooms at the Independent

"Very kind employees and nice location. Only issue was I could not use hotel parking due to construction. Hotel provided shuttle service to remote parking lot. Hotel recommended restaurent PRI MARI served excellent fresh seafood and local dishes. "

"The food was perfect. Very good"

"Great hotel with beautiful views of the sea. Great breakfast and surrounded by other restaurants. Only 20 min lovely seaside walk into Piran centre."

"We stayed for only three nights but had an entirely positive experience. We had a large and spacious room with a separate bedroom. Nearby restaurants offered good food and great service, and an indoor swimming pool, included in the price, was just steps away. We will definitely return."

"I used to come here when I was a teenager with my parents and now I got to bring my child. It never disappoints! There is an abundance of activities for adults and for children, truly a gem!"

"Be careful where you park. Directions are not in English. I parked in a lot, received an 80 euros fine and still had to pay for the time spent in the lot. Had I known ot was restrictive parking there, I would not have parked there. Hauling luggage from the parking area is a chore"

"Experience was great. Hotel very stylish, rooms comfortable and personal very friendly and helpful."

"Great experience. Helpful and accommodating staff. Function and spacious room. Great ammenties. I am a returning customer and will come back again."

"I cannot recommend this hotel more highly. I wanted to stay in Piran but choose this hotel initially for two reasons: (a) it was walking distance along a promenade to Piran and offered free parking; and (b) it would be staying in a slice of history as the form of the hotel (though not the renovated interiors) harked back to the more brutalist days of the Yugoslav Republic. Then I got there - the staff were unfailingly lovely; the room was big (after several days of tiny rooms); each room has an expansive sea view; the breakfast was out of this world; and it was a beautiful promenade in front of the hotel along the sea. It was really a singular experience and one of the reasons that Piran was a highlight of the trip. My mother (70 yo) felt very poorly on the last night of the trip and was quite ill during the night. As we didn't have to leave to go to the airport until 4pm, I requested a late-check out. Not only did they give my mother the room until 4pm, but they didn't accept extra payment for the additional time in the room. Honestly I can't recommend this hotel more highly!"
