Kongo Hotel & Casino

Kongo Hotel & Casino is a hotel and casino at Ljubljanska cesta 65 in Grosuplje, a town beside the Ljubljana-Zagreb road about 15 km south-east of Ljubljana in the Central Slovenia region. The hotel stands close to the motorway and the older main road, which makes it a practical stop for motorists travelling between the capital and Dolenjska, Croatia or the Zagreb area. Grosuplje is a small commercial town, and the surroundings are more suburban and rural than touristy, with the Dolenjska hills and the karst landscapes of the region nearby. The hotel's character is that of a roadside leisure complex, combining accommodation with gaming and entertainment in a single building, and it appeals to motorists, business travellers and guests who want to combine an overnight stay with an evening at the casino. Rooms are offered as Double Rooms, Superior Doubles and Family Rooms, all with air conditioning and wifi, and the Family Rooms provide extra space for parents and children. A restaurant serves meals, and the casino provides gaming and a bar atmosphere in the evenings. Breakfast is generally available to guests. Parking is available on site, which is a clear advantage over city-centre properties. There is no spa or pool, and the hotel focuses on convenient overnight stays and entertainment rather than leisure facilities. From the hotel, guests can drive to the Krka region, Turjak Castle, Ljubljana's old town or the Škocjan and Postojna caves within about an hour. Typical rates run from about EUR 65 to EUR 110 per night depending on season and room, which is moderate and often lower than Ljubljana. Public transport links with Ljubljana exist by bus and train from Grosuplje, but a car makes the hotel easier to use. Guests should note that casino entry is restricted to adults and typically requires valid identification.
