Co-financing

The boutique hotel will have the character of a boutique mountain spa hotel, with a total capacity of 20 rooms and suites, a restaurant, a multifunctional conference hall, and a spa centre complemented by landscaped outdoor areas designed for experiencing nature in the forest and its immediate surroundings.

At the heart of the boutique experience will be a personal approach based on individual attention, personalised services, authentic local character, and the consistently high quality of all services provided.

In line with its positioning slogan, “CLOSE TO NATURE”, the Rimski vrelec boutique mountain spa hotel will be situated in a secluded forested area directly beneath the iconic Mount Uršlja gora. As such, it will provide a unique starting point for exploring this mountainous part of Slovenia for hikers, cyclists, and other nature enthusiasts.

By drawing on the natural mineral water spring of Rimski vrelec, the hotel will also enhance experiences of nature, relaxation, and personal retreat through its spa offering.

Project completion:

At Rimski vrelec, we have successfully completed the construction of the new Hotel Wada Rimski vrelec boutique mountain spa hotel. The new hotel offers 21 modernly furnished boutique rooms and represents a significant enhancement of the destination’s tourism offering.

The project was designed in collaboration with Slovenian and international architects, together with local contractors. The architectural concept is based on a close connection with the natural environment, with particular emphasis placed on the use of natural materials and energy-efficient solutions. The hotel is situated in a forested setting beneath Mount Uršlja gora, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. Modern digitalised processes, suitable energy infrastructure, and professionally trained staff further contribute to a pleasant guest experience.
