    Bad service, will not recommend. Much better bars in Ljubljana for better prices.

    Stayed in the hostel here! It was so amazing and perfect. AC, clean rooms, comfortable beds, hot showers, and kind staff. Highly recommend. We had a private twin room. I have been traveling for 4 months and this has been one of my favorite hostels. The pub was wonderful and great drinks too! Excellent and kind service.

    The pub has a nice atmosphere. The hostel itself never had staff present to answer questions. You had to go to the pub and ask the staff member who was already busy in the pub for help. The hostel was small and cozy. Can meet other travelers, but no events or anything like that. Decent stay for a couple nights.

    Stayed in the single room for multiple days! It was perfect. Clean, comfortable beds, and very kind and professional staff!Excellent and kind reception service (Nika was amazing), not to mention the location & bar in-front which are the best! Highly recommend!

    amazing and cozy hostel!! the staff is very nice and flexible, the rooms are very clean and beautiful, the bathrooms are big and clean, they have kitchen and a little nice terrace, they also have air conditioner, they have a washing machine (4,5€ per use) and a dryer (free!) and the location is perfect! there’s also a supermarket 2 min away, which is very handy.

    I loved this hostel, very clean and comfortable. Also met some nice people here, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a hostel in Ljubljana.

    The service is boring, disinterested, doesn't care about their customers, but beer, drink menu and a nice business that’s all…

  • 4/5 Erica B. 3 months ago on Google New
    A nice little hostel with a cool bar underneath. Kitchen facilities, laundry, rooms etc all really good for the price and a beautiful walk to the main part of the city just a couple of minutes away. The restaurants on the same road are all great too.

    We didn't sleep here, just enjoyed the little but amazing pub with a super cozy atmosphere. Young and friendly staff! Good beer selection. Highly recommend if you are looking for a place to chill!

    Nice little pub. Great for a quick stop

  • 4/5 Kévin R. 5 years ago on Google
    A very good place. We booked for 2 nights a double room for only 80€. The place is very clean and the receptionist was very nice with us. The room was a little bit too small and I think ask people to remove the linen at the end is too much for this price. The hostel has a pub and we stayed all the afternoon until they close. The music is great and I think it was the crowdest place this night.

    Great atmosphere even in a cloudy windy morning.

    Totally recommendable!!! We we're arriving at late evening and there was no problem to check in with Leyla the kindest barkeeper i've ever met. You have to know that there is a nice bar at Sax Hotel as well with lot's of people from Ljubjana sitting there even on a monday. She was so nice, welcomed us with a beer and had an open ear to all our questions. She showed us the dorm which has everything you need and the price is very fair with ca. 15€ per person. You have a bathroom next to the dorm and there are showers as well. Leyla was open minded and we talked a lot this evening, also with Tamara, another kind barkeeper who was a cool person as much as Leyla was. We had a lot of fun this evening. In summary, you should definitely stay at Sax Hotel!!!

    Very friendly and nice staff, helped us a lot! The place is really cool, clean and comfortable. There is a bar outside which is quite loud, but it is only open until 2am. These days there is terrible noise in the morning due to a construction in the road, so it is also not reachable by car. But still, I'd totally stay there again.

    Great service, nice people, good coffee and music. Tap beer selection is also very nice.

  • 3/5 Marko K. 3 years ago on Google
    Sax Pub is a historic establishment, one of the first pubs that slowly replaced old fashioned restaurants and tipical bifes with rostfrei bar-tops. And was always usually out of reach of tourists. However, now is quite expensive ordinary pub with a stuff on a more relaxed side, not on the best way. Thankfully there are some alternatives just next door.

    Cool, cozy place with a nice atmosphere. A choice of good beers, snacks, great location make it a great place to spend some time. Union non filtered beer and ham sandwich were just perfect after a trip to the castle mountain. Recommended!

    Sax Pub is a great place. Chill, very good choice of local craft and foreign beers. The music there makes the atmosphere so amazing. I fully recommend to have some beers there!

    A bit pricy but nice, good service, great location.

  • 5/5 Peter L. 4 years ago on Google
    Bar with history of hanging. Locals as well as foreign wanderes collide to share stories. Sometimes there's a jazz concert.

  • 1/5 Tjaša �. 1 year ago on Google
    Very slow service and high prices. The bartender forgot about our order and then also when we asked for the bill he forgot and also when we finally managed to pay, he didn’t provide the bill. The worst experience!!!

  • 4/5 Luke T. 1 year ago on Google
    The One beer we wanted was out. No music. But great service and atmosphere.

👍👍 Very good burgers, one of the best in Slovenia. Also chicken wings were great. House beer was OK. Prices are very expensive, burger was 12,9€ and beer 4,9€. These are 30% higher rates then usual Slovenian burger places, but I suppose they can keep it due to location in city center. Stuff is very fri...
