This place is very special. I loved it and so did the other 3 in my group. We stayed 4 nights and did not want to leave. It is unique in its configuration with the hotel rooms underground and skylights as windows, which may seem quirky (or budget conscious) to some but is intriguing to others, especially once the backstory and environmental emphasis described in other reviews is understood. The room design is very clean and simple, in line with the simplicity typical of Slovenian living. The historic property is beautiful and the incredible serene views are awe-inspiring. Breakfast is homemade by the owners and delicious, with freshly baked bread and the most delicious fruit jams and honey, fresh yogurt, local meats and cheeses, eggs to order and more. I am missing it right now. Dinner with wine pairing is wonderful as well, with a farm to table gourmet format. A range of fruit and herb liquors is made on the premises. A short walk through the vineyards leads to the tiny town of Slap, with multiple wine houses and tasting opportunities, including Zorz where the brothers there serve with TLC. This is a truly local and memorable experience.

We spent three nights here and enjoyed ourselves very much. Our host greated us with wine (local AND fantastic). Very helpful on making dinner reservations for us and giving us info on local restaurants and sights to see.
We truly were happy with our stay, but there were oddities for you to be aware of: 1) The guest quarters are below ground. The Incandescent lighting was excellent but there is only a small skylight to connect you with the outdoors. 2) The bathroom is open to the bedroom with a cloth curtain to afford privacy. 3) The shower glass is squeaky clean and both my friend and I walked into it during the night. I had a lump and bruise but no concusion☺️. 4)There is a great room area and group refrig, plus dishware, glasses and silverware so you can have a snack or a cold meal. This was wonderful to have.
The beds were comfy and the rooms meticulously clean. There is heat and air conditioning as needed. The rooms are all the same except for the accent colors and wall flora paintings. Very sleek and modern with stone and natural wood floors; simple, gorgeous wood furniture and contemporary bathroom fixtures.
You can get your laundry done by the housekeeper for $€10. Neatly folded and returned to you room.m
Typical European breakfast. After three mornings we were tired of the same serving of meats, one cheese, toast and a small selection of fresh fruit.
Unfortunately their gourmet restaurant was closed while we were there. Beautiful dining area with lots of bottles of wine for decor.
Lovely, quiet area around the hotel. Wonderful herb garden plus a table and chairs under a persimmon tree where we had lunch (meats, cheeses and bread bought at local markets) and played bridge.

My partner and I stayed thee lasr weekend - over the night due to a wedding nearby. The place is very nice - small, family run, mostly famous for delicious restaurant that attracts guest from all over the world, but has a small number of rooms located undernieth their home garden. The rooms are well lit with cieling windows. They are equiped minimialistically but have all you need for an overnight stay. Fair price and very friendly staff. The rooms don’t have a tv - we didn’t need it, but just in case it’s important to you, keep this in mind.

This hotel is incredibly picturesque and the hosts are very friendly. We had a lovely stay but the room was very simple. The bathroom and shower are only separated from the bedroom by a thin curtain so privacy is at a premium. There was no ventilation in the room as the AC/fan wasn't working (we didn't realise until the evening so never raised this with the host), and the rooms are underground so there are no other windows apart from a skylight. The continental breakfast was delicious, and the surrounding area was very beautiful, we went on several walks around the vineyards and through the local village, Slap.

I am not sure where I was browsing (researching for a trip to Slovenia) when I came upon this restaurant with rooms and decided to visit with my family. I read only good things and I was really looking forward to our visit. It did not disappoint and I would not hesitate to go back!
We hired a car from Ljubljana’s (tiny) airport, we drove first to Ljubljana and stayed a night and then we drove out to the Vipava valley. It is just an hour or so’s drive, the roads are really good, road signs are good; the only issue for us was a biblical storm and the heaviest rains we have ever driven through! We found Slap and Majerija restaurant & guest house without any difficulty at all. Any plans for having a walk in the local area were ruined by the rain, but we noticed the surrounding countryside was really beautiful and we were happy to relax in our room instead.
We were able to arrange for 2 extra beds for our children in our room and the arrangement was fine - not a lot of floor space but everyone was comfortable (we travelled with small bags). The underground guest rooms are nicely decorated (in a simple style), with comfortable beds. Everything feels good quality.
We had a fabulous meal in the evening. My husband and I had many courses, our children had fewer, but I am not sure we could have had better, more thoughtful and considerate service.
We enjoyed the wines chosen to go with our dishes and these were all excellent. Bravo for Vipava wines!
It was clear that Majerija wants to showcase local dishes and recipes, with local seasonal ingredients. We went the next day to Hisa Franko where the food was more ‘chefy’ and more like the offer in a famous or Michelin recognised restaurant in the UK or elsewhere, but I think I would return to Majerija before I returned to Hisa Franko - for the wonderfully warm welcoming surroundings and service, the delicious food and wine. (And better value)
After a great night’s sleep, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast the next day. My husband cannot eat wheat and they provided very nice gluten free bread, along with different meats, cheese, boiled eggs, salad, yoghurt and several unusual and delicious homemade jams.
I hope to return and I hope to find it just as we did on this visit.

What a little Gem. We needed a place to stay in the Vipava valley. Came across this place on booking.com. Arrived mid afternoon on a Sunday just missing the lunch service. Next time I will make sure we have lunch or dinner. You stay under the herb patch. Its was August when we were there and the coolness of being underground was worth it when it is 30 degrees up top. The rooms are spacious and very clean. Nestled amongst the vineyards. Vipava village is across the valley and there is a winery just 2 minutes away. (Na Hribu,Slap 93) If you are looking for a very unique place to stay in the Vipava valley then this is it.

Isn't it a bit perverted to visit a place that deserved a review in The Times? Anyhow, if you can pretend to be naive about it, please proceed. We had a wedding to go to nearby, so this was an ideal place to spend the night for us. Idyllic, located midst wineries in a small village, this tranquil place is your ultimate escape. You could not have chosen better, whether you want a peaceful romantic weekend or catch up with your old friends. I am not a local from Vipava, but am in love in this place. Its just so magical. Yes, Majerija has it all - a hard working owner, who is just as much as perfectionist as you would want him to we. We attempted to eat dinner, but were unfortunately stuffed from the wedding, so had to force feed a bit - well worth every piece of effort. The owners seemingly used mild winter to actually grow fresh veggies in January! This was served right onto your plate. Delicious food and atmosphere of this ancient farmhouse. Rooms are modern and minimalistic, they are meant to spend the night and enjoy the scenic outdoors during the day. They use my favorite (local) brand of towels - Odeja. The only thing I could possibly complain about is that the mattress was quite hard. It would be an inch better with a comforter on top.
This is not yet another tourist trap. Tourists are placed where they belong - somewhere off the facade ... My dream is to return with a carbon bike and cycle in the radius of 100 km with this place being my starting and restoring point. It is so perfect. Plenty of hiking and wine tasting options in the area. This (resembles and) is better than Tuscany. Promise. If not, you can write me hate emails for the rest of my life. Or even longer.
Local products can be purchased, some of it neatly packed in jars. Delish.

We stayed for 1 night here as a stop in the wine region when travelling around Slovenia as a couple. The outside spaces, herb garden and out door seating are very good with splendid views whilst you enjoy a glass of wine. Equally the main building/ restaurant area has a lovely feel and is in keeping with the surroundings. The accommodation however underground (under the herb garden) is a little basic and has a budget feel to it. Couldn't find any tea/ coffee facilities in the room, beds seem to just singles latched together, shower despite having a screen seems to leak into the room. Also if you aren't a "couple" you may find having a hospital bed style curtain off putting. I understand the idea keeping the rooms quite simple given the setting and style of building above ground but it just feels a bit sterile. This is a shame given the beautiful setting amongst the vineyards and how nice the outdoor space is.
Parking is excellent and close to the accommodation. Check in was straight forward.

Just a little background: I booked a reservation for dinner when RSVPs opened up (I believe a month in advance, Thursdays-Sundays) as my husband and I would be winding up an almost two week sojourn throughout Slovenia. Vipava Valley is chock-a-block full of charming, centuries old, family run vineyards that you mostly have to schedule appointments in advance. Likewise, there are only a few restaurants (or hotels) with narrow winding roads and you are better off spending the night at a place you will be spending a few hours at feasting and drinking. We arrived mid-afternoon, chose the "chive room" for our accommodation that night and proceeded to go for a two hour walk behind the hotel, past the llamas, through vineyards, just wandering on the tractor roads. This offers a great view of how the Vipava Valley works, the mountains on the north protect it from colder winds and the ones from the south, from getting too hot. Terraces of grapes zigged zagged around the countryside and at one point we saw some huge mansion or facility (very unusual) way up on the hill.....postcard perfect! The dinner was exquisite, lovingly prepared, delicious and paired with wines you will never find in the the States.

Majerija is an unusual place. When the owners didn't get a permit to build a new place next to their original house, they decided to make an underground hotel. A nice idea which they executed well. The whole place is designed in a minimalistic manner, with modern and traditional intertwining. Apart from the only window being on the ceiling, you don't really have a feeling that you are under the ground. This is both good (no claustrophobic feeling) and not so good (there is no wow-factor and a feeling of spending the night in an unusual location). The comfort in the rooms is minimal. While you get everything that you need, there is no cupboard, no minibar, no TV. Frankly, we didn't miss any of these. However, there were two issues which made the place not so nice for us. First, the heating is not functioning very well. It is done by the air conditioning which then stays on throughout the nigth. The fan is not loud, but not quiet neither. It is also not very efficient, so small electric fan heaters are provided. With them, the temperature is OK, but I wouldn't expect such auxiliary measures to be required in a 100 EUR/night room. The second flaw was significantly bigger. Call me old-fashioned, but I prefer the sounds and smells of the bathroom and toiled to be confined to a closed place. The designers of Majerija went further from the glass wall in some modern hotels - in order to save space, they only separated the bed and the toilet/bathroom by a curtain. Bed quality was OK, but the double room only means two single beds held together by a wooden piece, so basically you have twin rooms and the hole between them. An acceptable place if you don't want to drive after the dinner at Majerija, but nothing more.
