Hotel Mangart Bovec

The hospitality at Hotel Mangart was absolutely phenomenal. The hostesses went out of their way to make me feel welcome and at home. One hostess accommodated my diet when the dinner menu when I was unable to eat what was being served. Another hostess, Ana S. was exceptional from the beginning of my stay to the end. When I lost my sunglasses in town, she went out of her way to give me a pair of her own which she no longer used. I would definitely recommend this hotel to friends and family.

Good hotel, large enough air-conditioned rooms. Breakfast was fine, tasty food but unfortunately it was underground with no views to the beautiful mountain scenery. The outdoor pool was surprisingly very pleasant. Well worth a stay if you find yourself in Bovec.

Pretty basic but as a 1 night stop on Rick Steves tour it was fine. The market mentioned in other reviews has closed... bit of a schlep to get to a market for a cold beer... but nice to have and sit by the pool. Pool is hard to get in and out of but refreshing! About 15 min walk to the dinner location.

A delightful spacious hotel just a short 10 minute walk from centre of Bovec. Lovely outdoor pool. Very friendly and helpful staff. Evening dinner was excellent and food and drinks prices seemed cheap. Next door to the rafting/ canyoning etc meeting point

We booked the accommodation six weeks in advance. Two days before the arrival, we were informed in writing that there had been a technical error and the hotel was fully booked. We were advised to find another accommodation. When we asked why this was only noticed weeks after the confirmed booking, we did not receive a response. Finding another accommodation at such short notice during the peak of summer was nearly impossible and extremely frustrating. Eventually, when we informed the hotel that we had booked another accommodation and were waiting for their official cancellation of the booking, they informed us that there was actually a room available. They stated that if we did not want it, we would have to cancel ourselves, otherwise, they would charge us the full amount as a "no show". This was an absolute outrage! By forcing people to cancel the booking through the 3rd party booking platform, they are depriving the guests of the opportunity to write a negative review on that platform and likely saving themselves cancellation fees. It's just fraud! If you want to ensure that you actually have a place to stay, I strongly recommend booking another hotel!

The room was ok. They however didn’t know how to operate their own spa facilities like the sauna. We reserved it twice, both times it was cold when we arrived. The first time we figured out how to turn it on. The second time we explained to them how to turn it on and we had to wait for more than half an hour before using it. The staff were not very nice and we didn’t get any compensation for the inconvenience.

Excellent location in the lovely town of Bovec, Slovenia near the Soca Valley. Friendly and approachable staff who engage with the guests. A very short drive to see some of the beautiful waterfalls nearby, plenty of water activities and hiking. We dined at the hotel and the food was great. Two course with wine for two people was approximately 50 EU, which is good value. The view of the mountains from our balcony was a bonus. The only constructive feedback I would give is that they needed two waiters for the dinner. The waiter we had on each night tried very hard to cater for all the guests, but it was evidently too much for one person.

Rooms are clean but very small. Nice balcony. Breakfast buffet was pretty economical with what they supplied. Good place to stay if you’re on a longer journey but I probably wouldn’t stay here for more than one night.
