About
Penzion Pod Lipo
Penzion Pod Lipo is a small, 2-star guesthouse set on Borstnikov Trg, a quiet square a 14-minute walk from Tivoli City Park and close to Galerija Emporium for shopping. The ten rooms are simply furnished, with parquet floors, a sitting area, and tea and coffee facilities. Guests share a kitchen equipped with an electric kettle and cookware, and can use the outdoor dining area on the sun terrace.
The guesthouse offers Wi-Fi throughout, air conditioning and heating in the rooms, and private parking nearby. Security is covered by smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, and key access. While pets are not allowed, the property is well placed for exploring Ljubljana's old town, with cycling and canoeing opportunities in the region.
Staff consistently earn high marks for their friendliness and local tips. Check-in is between 14:00 and 20:00, and check-out from 08:00 to 10:00. The atmosphere is casual and practical, more suited to travellers who want a clean, central base than those seeking luxury.

Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Comfort is a step below — While rooms are clean and spacious, comfort rating is the lowest at 7.5, suggesting the bedding or furniture may feel basic.
- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 20:00. If you arrive later, you'll need to arrange with staff – they've stayed late for guests, but it's worth confirming.
- No pets allowed — Despite the description mentioning pet-friendly, the policies clearly state pets are not allowed – double-check if traveling with an animal.
- Street noise possible — Double rooms offer street views, so light sleepers may hear traffic or café sounds from the square.
- No on-site restaurant — The guesthouse only has a shared kitchen; there's no dining option on site, though guests mention a restaurant downstairs.
