Hotel Kompas

Kompas is a big hotel that gets bus loads of foreign tourists but nice rooms and an all you can eat breakfast buffet. It is right in Granska Gora and so it’s easy to walk around the little town.

We arrived on a Wednesday night, a little tired due to delays both ends of our flight, however our rep from Inghams, the fabulous Katja, had made sure the hotel were aware of our delays to ensure we could grab dinner before it closed at 9 pm. If you book with Inghams and having the pleasure of having Katja as your host, you will discover for yourself how helpful, informative and good fun she is. Restaurant area First impressions on the restaurant area were very good, food for dinner is buffet style with clear chalk labels above the counters as to what it is, most evenings we all managed to find something. There’s a range of meat options, a couple of veggie options and a full salad/fruit area, coupled with an array of mini deserts so you don’t feel guilty taking more than one to try. The hotel asks you only take what you plan to eat to avoid food waste, so it’s good to take a taster and go back if you find something you like. On every night there is always a veggie soup and a meat broth option too. Breakfast includes bread and bread rolls, yogurt in a small fridge, and a variety of cheeses and meats to pick from as well as fruit, which can include bananas, apples, peaches/nectarines, grapes, plums, apricots. Hot options included scrambled eggs, and something described as bacon (very different from UK streaky bacon but that’s the closest it comes to) , sausages, and a frankfurter type sausage, there’s also a ratatouille options, Drinks include variety of teas and machine coffee eg. Espresso, latte and cappuccino. However, be aware the ‘fruit’ drink dispenser is not fruit juice and is instead squash. No fresh juices available at all. Staff in the restaurant area are attentive and at times too much so, the minute a plate is emptied, a waiter/ress pounces on it, and takes it away, this constant activity can make you feel ‘watched’ intensely! It’s kind of like having a human hover fly around at all times. Nonetheless all were welcoming and friendly. Wine if you order it is sold at 100ml glasses, which is somewhat small to the measures in the UK. A variety of soft drinks are on order, and you can’t have tap water on the table, and if you take your own bottle into the restaurant you are asked to remove it. Nonetheless the drinks aren’t too overpriced, and i can recommend the grapefruit Radler (a beer with flavouring, very refreshing). Rooms - We had booked the ‘superior room’ with a Mountain View. I’m not sure this room was any better than a standard room, only that it had a bit more floor space, we had a fold up cube chair, which clearly opened into a single bed, and an office chair, neither of which scream comfort. We had a balcony with two chairs and a small table. It was apparent along these balconies there were flower boxes which straddle the balcony next to you, however, these were all empty. Such a shame. Beds are essentially twins, which are made up as one bed if you want a double, they are roomy, with clean cr

The rooms are very old. There is a smell in the room, probably from the bathroom. Bathroom has mold on it, we found hair on the “clean” towel. Stuff is very friendley, they are trying to help. The rooms are dated, the hotel defenetly needs a renovation.

Older mountain hotel. Room was hot and not great ventilation even with window wide open. There’s no air conditioning. Breakfast was good with extensive selection of meats, cheese, cereal, bread, pastries, juices, eggs, bacon, sausage etc. Get there early as the large groups can clean out the good stuff. Nice staff. Indoor pool with several chaises outside. One major positive was that the staff was very responsive about finding an item left behind and sending it back. Thank you for that!!!

I really enjoyed my stay here, though it was only for one night. Staff was really friendly, breakfast was good too and there is a parking space at the front of the hotel. The only minor thing is that there was no airconditioning, so it was a bit hot in the room. The hotel is a bit outdated but quite well maintained.

Realy nice, clean hotel with perfect location. The breakfast was good with variety choice. Staff were friendly and helpful. A big advantege was separate bike room were you can store and charge your bikes. Dogs friendly hotel. The only problem during my stay was high temperature- the room was not equipped with air condition.

Outstanding Hotel enjoyed my stay very much
