Company info

I am Iva Koželj, the manager of B&B SONCE, I studied Tourism and Hotel Management and my husband Aleš is a chef by profession. We both worked in the tourism sector from the very beginning and traveled and lived abroad before we opened Hostel Sonce B&B more than 10 years ago. As a hotel manager, receptionist, I meet people from all over the world. And in fact, the world we live in is one big family and a common space that we all share. In a hostel, it is common for strangers to sit together and start talking. From January 2010 we offer accommodation and breakfast for travelers (B&B), tourists. There are thirteen rooms with WI-FI access, private bathroom, TV and air conditioning. Iva, Aleš, our child Tibor and Sofija are the team of Hostel Sonce B&B. We are looking forward to your visit ! WELCOME!
