Natura Amon

My second floor room was overlooking part of the heavily soaked golf course, which is surrounded by many mature trees. I arrived here late afternoon after biking through quite a mountain downpour - I was wet, cold, and a bit tired. The reception was super quick – they knew I just had to get to my room to warm up and dry up – I was near hypothermic and needed to remedy that rapidly. No elevator – just a small detail that may mean something to people of lesser capabilities. Thankfully there's only two floors. The hallway lighting on the second floor didn’t always turn-on quickly. It is motion sensitive but at times I found I had to wave my arms around to get it to, eventually, turn on. In the morning, dew was super thick from the previous day’s rain. Men were playing soccer in the wet grass. They also have a thing called footgolf (kick ball around golf course). I had never heard of such a ‘sport’. There was a heated towel rack in the bathroom, unfortunately it wasn’t working. I could’ve definitely use it to dry my biking clothes. All the furniture is made of ecologically-friendly materials from wood to fabrics. The curtains, cushions, and bedding all match and are of very soothing colors. They look hand-woven. The Amon Estate has an organic orchard. Among them are native apples, plums, peaches, quinces, pears, mulberries, and cherries. They also grow strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, gooseberries, and currants. In the garden, a large selection of organic vegetables and herbs will eventually find their place on their restaurant menu. A lot of their delicious jams are served at breakfast. Very yummy. The family-owned Amon Estate is the oldest privately owned winegrowing and winemaking company in Slovenia’s Šmarje-Virštanj winegrowing subregion. There is a long history of growing grapes here. Also a small souvenir shop is on location between the hotel and the restaurant. The place was quiet, clean, simply furnished and equipped. The breakfast was included and not only delicious and filling, but also the most authentic to what the locals, rather than the tourists eat.

I was delighted to see position of this charming hotel, nestlled between luscious green I just knew we are gonna get soo much needed peace and quiet and I was right. We had smooth and efficeint check in and our room was cute, with large comfy bed, small but well equiped bathroom with all necessities there. We were soo plesantly suprised with breakfast choices, everything was arranged so tastfully and I specially loved that much of things served were from local farms and organic origin. It was fabulous and one of the best breakfast experiences I had in a while. Furthermore I would recommed to have dinner in their restorant, we did one evening and it was yummi, the steak was roasted to perfection and we had amazing red wine on top. The area around hotel is nice, plenty of options for long walk or cycling around Pocetrtek. My huge recommendation for a quet weekend getaway.

Really nice stay even if it was for only 1 night on our way to Budapest. The rooms are clean and spacious, the area is very quiet and after the afternoon spent in the nearby Olimnia There Aquapark, we slept like babies. The food for dinner and breakfast was very tasty, good portions, using local and bio ingredients, so can only recommend this place. The breakfast (which was at extra charge for us) deserves extra mention: very abundant, lots of choice of sweet and savoury and some local dishes especially on the sweet selection, which were to die for. Definitely recommend this place!

We stayed for one night. We paid 89€ a night for the apartment (2 person) with breakfast. Apartment was clean and spacious and equipped with modern furniture. Good food, nice staff that really care, beautiful nature. We also had dinner in their restaurant. There is also a large parking lot. The only minus was that bed are too soft. But it was really great.

E' la seconda volta che abbiamo usufruito dell'ospitalità della struttura. La prima volta avevamo preso una stanza, adesso invece abbiamo optato per l'alloggio al piano terra che, oltre alla camera da letto e il bagno, dispone anche di una stanza uso soggiorno. Inoltre, c'è un piccolo spazio esterno con tavolino e sedie e con il dondolo. Sistemazione ideale! Io mi alzo presto e potevo quindi muovermi in libertà senza disturbare il mio compagno. Tutto pulitissimo: il personale di servizio presente e discreto (cambio asciugamani giornaliero) e si può scegliere se usufruire del servizio di pulizia o no, finché si occupa la camera. Lenzuola, coperte e cuscini non mancano. Il bagno è accessoriato (oltre che con asciugamani e tappeti) solo con il phon e un sapone liquido nella doccia. Colazioni abbondanti (dolce e salato), caffè espresso a richiesta. Il ristorante punta molto sulla carne e forse non c'è molta scelta per quello che riguarda i primi. Grazie ad Aleš (spero si scriva così) che è stato un ospite perfetto ma anche grazie a tutti gli altri che hanno accolto ogni nostra richiesta con un sorriso e tanta disponibilità! Alla prossima!! P.
