Cover story
Festival Lent is Slovenia’s
premier music and arts event,
attracting over 600,000 visitors - equivalent to nearly a
third of the country’s population - to Maribor’s old town on
the banks of the River Drava
every June. This will be the
festival’s 15th year, with an
expected 400 per formers
from 34 countries taking
to 30 stages. Aside from
music, dance and theatre
performances, the festivities
also include children’s workshops, mimes, magicians,
acrobats and of course fireworks. See page 16 for
more details

Foreword
foreword
While recent years have brought a significant influx
of tourists to Slovenia, most foreign visitors don’t
venture far beyond fairytale Ljubljana or picturesque
Bled. But ask any Slovene not from Ljubljana which city
they prefer, and invariably the answer will be Maribor.
Not only is its name infinitely more pronounceable
than the capital’s (seriously, not even Slovenes can
agree on how Ljubljana should be pronounced), but
more importantly it exemplifies everything that is
wonderful about the country as a whole: genuinely
warm and friendly people, a laid-back atmosphere
and leisurely pace of life, rich history and tradition
and, not least, an insatiable love of wine. As Maribor’s
most famous librarian (and part-time poet) Janko
Glazer once elegantly put it: “Where is there a town
like ours? From all directions wine is pouring into our
glasses!” Where indeed.
Here at In Your Pocket we feel it’s time to do our part
to encourage the inevitable exploitation of Slovenia’s
unfairly overlooked second city. Three quarters of
a millennia as transport hub, economic centre and
important regional capital has left Maribor brimming
with vestiges of its past glory, just waiting to be trod
under foot by hoards of camera-toting tourists. Aside
from prime sightseeing weather, the warmer months
also bring an onslaught of festivals, including the
renowned Festival Lent (see below), and transform
the nearby Pohorje mountains into a hiking, biking
and horseback riding paradise (p 39). Great people,
great sights, great events and great wine - this is
the perfect time to experience this great city before
it assumes its rightful place on the tourist map. We
hope this inaugural issue of our Maribor guide comes
in handy while you do so, and don’t forget to check the
site (www.inyourpocket.com) for all the latest news
and information

Getting involved
A year or so ago In Your Pocket took the
interactive plunge and began allowing readers
to post comments under our own reviews. The
response has been incredible, nowhere more so
than in Riga, where the famous rip-off joint Lord
Pub has garnered so many comments from angry
readers that at one stage earlier this year our
system couldn’t cope: we had to reconfigure it to
accommodate all the feedback. All of our venues
- and most of our features - are now open forums
ready for your comments. If you have something
to say on Warsaw’s raunchiest nightlife venues,
say it at inyourpocket.com. If you want to flaunt
your Cornish nationalist credentials, do it at inyourpocket.com. Our local editors are encouraged to
reply to comments and make a point of taking on
board what our readers are telling us. While we vet
all comments before publication, if you provide a
valid email address we usually approve the vast
majority, no matter how vitriolic or controversial.
So if you’ve been ripped off, or simply enjoyed
terrific service, let everyone know. If you want to
contact us direct, you can do so at readersmail@
inyourpocket.com.
Online exclusives
The number of pages in our print guides is limited...
our website has no such boundaries. As such
we are able to publish huge amounts of original
content that would otherwise not make it into the
public domain. Visit inyourpocket.com and check
out our features on famous locals, scams, upcoming concerts and exhibitions, as well as making
full use of our Business and Lifestyle Directories:
often the most up-to-date and reliable directories
in your city, in any language.
“Tops for Central and Eastern Europe. Back in 1991
during a long night of drinking, four guys living in Vilnius
came up with the idea to create an online city guide
for the Lithuanian capital, which at the time had no
telephone directory. The result? This online collection
of locally written, frank, lively and informative guides
to more than 50 cities across the region, from Derry
to Tartu. For most cities, content runs deep: there are
more than 30 restaurants and 11 clubs listed under
Brasov, for example. Plus, news, maps and blogs.
You can even tune into a local radio station. Browse
around the site for interesting finds, such as a Prague
hotel that was formerly a theater and still retains
original features, including a full size stage and balcony
boxes.”

“Death of the guide book? Pah! They’re just diversifying. Print off your own PDFs…”
The Times, April 18, 2008
(In naming In Your Pocket as one of 10 guide book
publishers to trust, in the wake of the Lonely Planet
scandal).
“In Your Pocket guides are a godsend. They are
impressively up to date and clearly written by people
who live in the city. Invaluable”
The Sun Herald (Australia)
“Inyourpocket.com was the first online travel guide to
come up with the idea of offering free downloadable
city guides in printable (PDF) format.”
The Guardian
“The secret of the In Your Pocket guides is that,
unlike many expensive travel guides, they are written
by native English speakers living in the city they are
writing about. That can lend itself to frank, matter-offact advice about your destination rather than jaded
impressions from world-weary professional travel
writers.”
The Irish Times
“Practical and honest. It‘s like having a friend and an
advisor all in one.“
La Repubblica
Arriving
Maribor is the main transport hub for the eastern half
of Slovenia, and as such is well-connected by public
transport to the rest of country, in addition to Austria,
Hungary and Croatia. The main bus and train stations are
only a couple hundred metres apart on the eastern edge
of the city centre, and well within walking distance of most
centrally-located hotels, however, there should be taxis
waiting out front if you don’t feel like dragging your luggage
through an unfamiliar city.
By Bus
The main bus station is either an architectural icon or eyesore depending on one’s taste, but either way, it’s centrally
located and has a range of facilities from information and
lockers to restaurants and a casino. The city is fairly wellcovered by local buses with tickets costing €1.10/2.75
for single rides/day passes and can be purchased from
drivers.

Getting around
If Things Go Wrong
The emergency number is 112 for fire, rescue and
ambulance, and 113 for police. I f possible, find
someone who speaks Slovene to help you make the
call since there is no guarantee of finding an English
speaker on the other end. The nearest Casualty Unit
(Emergency Room) to the city centre can be found
at the University Medical Centre at Ljubljanska 5,
(E-3). Emergency treatment is free for members of
EU, EEA and Switzerland. We also list local pharmacies, dentists and other services in the directory.
If you find yourself in trouble with the police, call your
embassy immediately.
Useful Emergency Words:
NA POMOČ! (NAH POH-MOCH) - HELP!
gasilci (GAH-SEELT-SEE) - firemen
policija (POH-LEET-SEE-AH) - police
bolnišnica (BOW-NEESH-NEET-SA) - hospital

By Plane
Maribor’s tiny airport does not currently have any scheduled flights, so unless you’ll be arriving on a charter flight
or your own jet, your best bets are the airports in Ljubljana
and Graz (Austria), which are both well-connected to the
rest of Europe and near enough to Maribor (100km and
60km respectively) to serve as viable points of arrival.
By Train
Although the train station has quite a bit of traffic coming
and going in all directions, it doesn’t have much in the
way of facilities. If you’re in need of anything other than a
toilette or a quick drink, you’ll have much more luck at the
nearby bus station.

Basics
Disabled travellers
Slovenia is increasingly well-adapted for the disabled.
Information is available from the NSIOS, tel. 430 36 46,
www.nsios.si.
Drinking
Alcohol is only sold to people over 18, and after 21:00 it
cannot be bought in stores.
Electricity
Like most European countries, Slovenia’s voltage is 220
volts AC, 50 Hz, and the country uses European two-pin
plugs.
Language
Slovenian is a Southern Slavic language with a 25-letter
alphabet. It is closely related to Serbian and Croatian, and
shares many words with other Slavic languages. Many
Slovenes also speak English, Italian, or German embarassingly
well.
Money
Slovenia temporarily swapped the Yugoslav dinar for the
tolar in 1991, and adopted the euro in January 2007. Euro
coins come in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50
cents, 1 and 2 euros, while banknotes come in 5, 10, 20,
50, 100, 200 and 500 euros. The Slovenian side of the
euro coins are decorated with among other things storks,
Mount Triglav, Lippizaner horses, a man sowing stars and a
Jože Plečnik design.
Politics
The Republic of Slovenia is a parliamentary democracy.
The president, Dr DaniloTürk, was elected in 2007. Borut
Pahor has been the prime minister since 2008. The next
parliamentary elections will be in September 2012. The
government consists of the PM and 15 ministers, of which
two are without portfolio.

summer festivals. In winter Maribor, with its hill Pohorje,
is a popular destination for skiers and snowboarders
from all over the world. Furthermore, in January the
slopes of Pohorje become the scene of a Women’s Ski
World Cup race named the Golden Fox which is a notable
and important sport event. As the mayor I am extremely
proud that Maribor was confirmed as the European
Capital of Culture 2012 and I am certain that in the year
2012 Maribor will be a cultural star in the European

history
The area of present-day Maribor was settled as far back as
the Stone Age and has served as an important crossroads
between Eastern and Western Europe and the Balkans
since antiquity.
Middles Ages
The Romans left the area largely untouched and it was not
until the Middle Ages that a proper town developed. After the
construction of a castle on Pirimida Hill in 1164, a settlement
began to grow along the river below and soon turned into a
thriving market community, which officially become a town,
called ‘Markburg’, in 1254 (the Slovene name, Maribor, did
not appear until 1836). In the decade that followed, a long
wall and series of defence towers were built around the
town in order to protect against invasion - several of these
impressive towers can still be seen today.
Habsburgs come to town
After the Habsburgs acquired the surrounding region of
Carinthia in 1335, wine commerce began to expand and
Maribor achieved economic prominence for the first time.
During this period the town also became home to a large
and prosperous Jewish community, whose expulsion in 1497
marked the beginning of what would prove to be a rather
tumultuous three hundred years.
Bleak times
Between the 16th and 18th centuries, competition from
foreign merchants, numerous fires, multiple sieges at the
hands of the Hungarians and Ottomans, the so-called “wine
wars” with neighbouring Ptuj and a healthy dose of the plague
all took their toll on the city - although the latter also led to
the commissionn of modern Maribor’s finest monument, the
Plague Column in Glavni Trg.
Industrial Revolution
During the 18th century the town’s fortune began to turn
around after the state took control of various craftsmen
guilds, reorganised the system of duty and improved roads.
But it was the construction of a railway line from the seat of
the empire in Vienna to the port of Trieste on the Adriatic,
that led to an major industrial boom a century later.
Aftermath of World War I
The aftermath of the First World War brought significant
Language
political changes to what had become an important industrial
centre. After nearly a half century of Habsburg rule, Slovenia
opted to join the Kingdom of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs
while the German-controlled municipal council of Maribor
elected to join Austria. Some brief fighting ensued, which
ended with Major Rudolf Maister taking control of the city.
Shortly after, the municipal council was dissolved and Styria
region was officially incorporated into Slovenia in 1919.
World War II
Maribor, along with the rest of Yugoslav Styria, was annexed
by the Nazis in April 1941, who immediately set about
expelling non-Germans - a policy overseen by the Füher
himself on a visit to the city shortly after it was seized. Over
the course of the war air raids from both sides demolished
or heavily damaged nearly half the city’s buildings. On 9
May 1945 units of Bulgarians, the Red Army and Slovene
partisans succeeded in liberating the city.
Post-war reconstruction
Following the war, larger firms were nationalised and the
labour force was reorganised. As a result industrial output
soon surpassed its pre-war levels. Maribor benefited
significantly from its skilled workforce and proximity to
Austria and Italy, becoming one of the biggest industrial
centres of Yugoslavia.
Independence
Maribor faced another difficult period after Slovenian
independence in 1991. The loss of the Yugoslav market and
changing global trends led to a collapse of heavy industry,
which had employed nearly two-fifths of the city’s residents,
and unemployment rose to a staggering 25%. However, over
the last ten to fifteen years the economy has recovered with
a new focus on small and medium sized businesses, and
increasingly tourism.
The 21st century
Slovenia entered the European Union in 2004, and adopted
the Euro in 2007. It joined the Schengen area the same year,
which essentially removed the borders between neighbouring
EU states and made travelling to nearby Austria easier than
ever. Maribor was recently named as one of the EU’s Capitals
of Culture for 2012, and will host the Winter Universiade (or
World University Games) the following year.

Like A
Local
Remotely-situated among meadows and forests
halfway up a mountain, Veronika (p 28) has made
every effort to evolve its menu from traditional
to more contemporary tastes, without losing the
essential substance of the former. It also has a
selection of game meats, so it’s the place to come
if you’ve been dying to try some wild boar. Requires
a bit of an effort to get there, but the views on the
drive up are worth the trip.
Mariborska Kavarna (p 30) Has the look, feel and
smell of the stereotypical central cafés that can be
found on the main squares of small towns throughout
Europe, which is exactly what this place was once
upon a time. Picture copious amounts of wood panelling, textured yellow walls, hideous cutains and tables
full of old men excitedly discussing whatever it is that
tables full of old men excitedly discuss and you’ll know
exactly what we’re talking about.
Like A
Local
Motel Pri Lešniku (p 23) The word ‘motel’ it uses to
describe itself might be a bit misleading if you have
watched any Hollywood road movies, particularly
as the place is 100 years old and located on the
outskirts of the city. Recent renovations not only
involved a general sprucing up, but also the addition
of some less common perks, including a Finnish
sauna, jacuzzi and even a miniature golf course. As
with others of the Slovenian inn type, there’s a vast
amount of space in the dining area, where you’ll be
served all the hospitality, meat dishes and lavish
desserts you’ll ever need.
The small sloping Vodnikov Square is a strange
combination of tradition and modernity. While recent
renovations have added a large underground parking garage and a canopy of bizarre-looking inverted
umbrellas, it’s also home to Maribor’s central market,
or Mariborska Tržnica (p 42), where farmers from the
countryside still come to peddle their fruits, vegetables,
flowers and handicrafts each and every day. Even if
you’re not looking to buy anything it’s worth a visit on
purely aesthetic grounds.
On the
Cheap
McDonald’s (p 27) For better or worse you know
exactly what you’re getting with the old golden
arches. This one is right in the heart of the old
town, but with three other locations spread about
the city there should be ample opportunity to abuse
your arteries without having to walk too far. It’s not
as cheap as in some Eastern European countries,
but it does seem like the prices have got relatively
less expensive since Slovenia switched to the euro
a few years ago.
Conveniently located next to blocks of dormitories,
there’s no better place to observe hard-drinking
Slovene students in their natural environment than
at ŠTUK (p 32). Inside, the gaudy red and yellow paint
job may have you feeling a bit queasy before you
even start imbibing, but this is a place you come to
for dirt cheap drinks and all night parties, not subtle
ambiance. A steady stream of Yugo and international
pop is given a respite every Thursday, when the DJ
spins some more chilled out beats, and there’s also
a proper concert venue in the back that frequently
plays host to popular regional acts and even the
odd comedian.
On the
Cheap
ALIBI C2 (p 23) Occupying the top three floors of a
beautifully renovated old villa, this new addition to
the Alibi hostel chain has been around for less than
a year and still has that never-been-lived-in feel
to it. It also has a lot of the little things that make
hostels more tolerable, like lockers, free internet and
super comfortable beds. During the academic year
the lower floors are rented out to visiting Erasmus
students, so even if you’re the only guest, as we
were back in May, you still should be able to find
someone to hit the town with.
City Park (p 35) This immaculately-kept park just north
of the city centre is definitely one of Maribor’s best features. With its three ponds teeming with many different
species of bird and a terrapin or two in amongst them
- who started life in the nearby and popular aquarium
- and highly sociable squirrels up and around the trees,
there is much to keep nature lovers occupied but this
is also the city’s best place to relax. On Sundays you
might catch a classical music concert held in the pavilion right smack in the middle of the park.
With The
Family
Mlada Lipa (p 29) Pohorje-based pizzeria with gaming
room and coffeehouse extras latched on, this place
offers a more 21st century, if lower-grade, alternative to the more traditional inn-type establishments
which dominate the area. Provides a large outdoor
children’s play area as well to let the little ones
gambol and frolic while you sip your coffee.
Cof feehouse Astoria Vast historical cafe that
dominates the city’s Castle Square. Used to attract
Maribor’s noted intellectuals and artists but now
pulls in the student set - a little further down the food
chain, you could say. Plenty of outside seating and a
children’s play area make it the perfect place to stop
for break during the afternoon. A separate stall sells
ice-cream during the warmer months, which not an
unusual feature in these parts.
With
The
Family
Apartment Jurič (p 23) If you’d like to stay near the
action, but want to have a little more privacy than
can be found at the hotels lining the main drag leading up to Pohorje, these cosy apartments definitely
fit the bill. On a quiet residential street only a few
minutes walk from the cable cars at the base of the
mountain, they can sleep up to four people as long
as two of you don’t mind crashing on a pull-out sofa
in the living room. As an added bonus you get free
access to the pool complex in Bolfenk and discounts
on many other activities.
Botanical Garden (p 35) Situated in the midst of the
Pohorje mountain range, the botanical delights on view
are from other parts of the globe as well as Slovenia.
You can book a guided tour in advance or just stroll
through the garden at your leisure. Either way there
is a huge amount to enjoy from such far-flung regions
such as Asia, Africa and Australia. Exotic though they
may seem, they are also the bread and butter of the
research institute which looks after them. If all that natural diversity amounts to an information overload then
you can always take a break in the garden’s café.
Over
The Top
Rožmarin (p 28) The owners of Maribor’s trendiest
restaurant definitely know what they’re doing. From
the lighting to the service to the food this place exudes
a cosmopolitan ambiance that you’d be hard-pressed
to find anywhere else in the country. Of course all
that style doesn’t come cheap. Although some à
la carte dishes will set you back less than €10, the
often changing multi-course menus can cost up to
four times that - or six if you opt to have a matching
wine for every dish - and require advanced booking.
Highly recommended if you feeling like splurging or
are in town with a company credit card.
Stand Up (p 32) One of Maribor’s more popular night
spots, you’re guaranteed to find it completely packed
on any given Friday or Saturday night, when a hip
young crowd comes to dance to pulsating balkan
beats and admire the whole scene reflected in what
must be one of the largest faux-antique mirrors we’ve
ever seen. Famous singers and other celebrities are
known to drop by, and true to its name it also hosts
the odd comedy night. Even if turbo folk isn’t well-represented on your iPod, that’s no excuse for not at least
trying to get in here - after all, when in Rome....
Over
The Top
Arguably a tourist attraction in its own right as well
as a place to stay, the Habakuk (p 21) is a huge
hotel located at the foot of the Pohorje mountains
and is a natural source of accommodation for the
thousands of skiers who flock to the area during
winter. But its Spa and Wellness Centre is also a
crowd-puller and is one reason why during the offseason, i.e. summer, you’ll see lots of young men
wearing tracksuits wandering around. Most of these
will be footballers from either Croatia or Serbia and
the Habakuk is their destination-of-choice for preseason training.
If the views from the top of Pohorje aren’t quite high
enough for your tastes, there’s always the option of
hopping into a hot air balloon (p 38) and seeing if
another few thousand metres do the trick. Of course
where exactly you drift off to depends largely on the
wind, but from that height you should be able to see
most of Slovenia on a clear day. Bookings should be
made at least 10 days before a flight.
Slightly
Strange
Quite a few places around Maribor have wine cellars
open for tastings and tours, but Vinska Klet Brigadir
(p 29) actually manages to cram an entire restaurant
underneath its low-hanging vaulted brick ceiling.
Located beyond the vineyards on the hill just north of
the city centre, this friendly family-run place turns out
an array of no-nonsense traditional Slovene cuisine
to go with its extensive selection of locally produced
wine. They also offer wine tours - call ahead to make
arrangements or enquire about the details.
Red’s Pub (p 31) The sight of this place might have
you rubbing your eyes in disbelief but it’s true, situated
some way beyond the city centre is Maribor’s very
own tribute to Liverpool Football Club. There’s red
all over the place, naturally, with scarves and other
paraphernalia adorning the walls and ceiling. Also
somewhat inevitably, is a photo of Steven Gerrard,
Xabi Alonso and Djibril Cisse with the European Cup
in the background. The pub’s only been going for two
years, so it’s nice and tidy and the owner is trying to
get a Liverpool Supporter’s Club up and running in
Slovenia for which the bar will undoubtedly become
the focal point.
Slightly
Strange
Located 50km east of Maribor on the western edge
of the vast Pannonian Plain, Sočna Hiša (p 23) - or
The Sun House - offers what might very well be the
most peaceful accommodation anywhere in the
country. Billed as Slovenia’s first boutique hotel,
five designer suites and several large common
areas are tucked into a converted country house
on the outskirts of a small village. A separate building houses the hotel’s own spa, where guests have
access to relaxing sauna and massage treatments,
and the staff can also arrange a variety of activities,
including rafting, horseback riding, wine tastings and
even a round a golf at a nearby course.
Bee Keeping Centre (p 35) Tell us about the honey,
mummy! Indeed, and though it won’t be your, or anyone
else’s, mother doing the talking, here’s where you can
learn all about the sickly sweet goo that bees produce,
which is also high up on the list of healthy eating options. A range of different types of honey - such as pine,
chestnut, acacia, linden and flower - can be sampled
at no cost at all and for a dip into your pocket you can
also try the mead, honey liqueurs and champagne the
museum keeps, along with the bees. During the summer you can see the busy bees at work through their
specially-made glass beehive.

Culture & Events
The city’s historical legacy as a prominent regional powerhouse has left it well-endowed when it comes to cultural
sites and events - a fact that hasn’t gone unnoticed,
as it was recently named as one of the EU’s Capitals of
Culture for 2012. Aside from the months of August and
September, performances of opera, ballet and drama are
held throughout the year at the stately National Theatre
on Slomškov Square, while an even wider selection of
musical, theatrical and children’s events take place at the
equally splendid Cultural House near the river. Of course
if you prefer to consume culture whilst it’s being projected
onto a large screen, two modern multiplex cinemas show
all the standard international flicks with varying degrees
of lag in release dates. The city also plays host to two of
Slovenia’s most well-known annual events: the Golden Fox
World Cup in winter and the two-week Lent festival which
begins summer in earnest in late June.

Where to stay
As Maribor continues
its transformation
from the country’s
industrial workhorse
to a full-fledged tourist
destination, its range
of accommodation has
obligingly followed suit.
Although a few uninspired
and overpriced business
hotels still stubbornly cling to their glory days, great new
options keep popping up all the time and many older
places have undergone recent renovations, so finding
something to fit your budget shouldn’t be much trouble.
The highest density of accommodation is in the suburb
of Radovljica at the foot of the Pohorje ski and recreation
area, only a ten minute drive from the city centre. If you are
interested in taking advantage of the various year-round
activities that the mountains have to offer, a number of
hotels can arrange package discounts. For those with their
own transportation, there are tons of charming little guest
houses in surrounding villages and the countryside, most
of which provide a comfortable laid-back atmosphere and
good home-cooked food.

Habakuk G-3, Pohorska 59, tel. 300 81 00, habakuk@
termemb.si, www.termemb.si. Arguably a tourist attraction
in its own right as well as a place to stay, the Habakuk is a
huge hotel located at the foot of the Pohorje mountains and
is a natural source of accommodation for the thousands of
skiers who flock to the area during winter. But its Spa and
Wellness Centre is also a crowd-puller and is one reason why
during the off-season, i.e. summer, you’ll see lots of young
men wearing tracksuits wandering around. Most of these will
be footballers from either Croatia or Serbia and the Habakuk

Pohorje mountains, this majestic hotel will have you swooning
with its awe-inspiring views, impeccable customer service and
fairy tale rooms. Can be reached by cable car, an average road
vehicle or on foot, which is perhaps the best way of getting
an eyeful of the scenery. That approach also works up an appetite and the food at the Bellveue will be more than a match
for that.Q 42 rooms ( singles €63- 83, doubles €90-122).

Betnava J-3, Jadranska 30, tel. 333 41 00, hotel@

perhaps should be in the centre of town but isn’t. Housed in
a contemporary building but paradoxically situated near a forest, the hotel has all the benefits of something brand spanking
new, but also some of the disadvantages too. Prides itself on
what’s inside rather than out, however, particularly its very sophisticated sports facility. Q 40 rooms (singles €92, doubes

Bolfenk’s emphasis on granting its guests a more individual

hotel which promotes itself more as a business rather than
tourist hotel so the ambience is a tad soulless, though the

podhostnik.si. Functional hotel close to the centre of Maribor
which does not go overboard trying to make its guests have
the time of their lives, you could say. But during occasions
such as the Lent festival it manages to pack them in as
well as its competitors, hence the apparent indifference. It
depends what you are after really: pristine accommodation

- or something that might be a bit rough and ready but is right

somewhat, but so it should be really, given what it sets
out to do. Self-termed a ‘new age’ hotel, the Kačar makes
every effort to give everyone the warmest of welcomes
and the staff will even try and foster friendship between
the guests. Yet, if you are on a business trip for a couple of
days, that may not be what you are looking for. You might
also be more inclined to make new acquaintances in the big
wide world out there, so you could say that this one is an
acquired taste. Q 16 rooms (singles €66, doubles €94).

pull into Maribor back in 1846, this elegant four-star hotel
directly opposite the main train station is the cream of the
crop in city centre. The attentive friendly staff seemed to
make every effort to assure we had a pleasant hasslefree visit. If you’re staying for the weekend, make sure to
inquire about the special “Casino Program” offered. Even
if you have no intention of trying your hand with that most
capricious if females, Lady Luck, there is a significant discount on the rooms and the possibility of late check out.

providing all the comfort you should expect from a newer
hotel, while still managing to maintain some old-fashioned
charm. Just opened last year, it’s obvious that a lot of effort
was put into recreating the feel of a traditional-style Slovene
country inn, and from the beds and bedding to the candle
sticks and light fixtures it’s hard not to notice the attention
that was paid to detail. It’s not the cheapest option in the

Positioned in a beautifully picturesque spot, 1,250 metres
above sea level and a stone’s throw away from the very
noble-looking Church of Saint Areh, it’s not the most luxurious place to stay in and around the Pohorje mountains but

might be a bit misleading if you have watched any Hollywood

located on the outskirts of the city. Recent renovations not
only involved a general sprucing up, but also the addition
of some less common perks, including a Finnish sauna,
jacuzzi and even a miniature golf course. As with others of

Very relaxed, family-owned hotel a few minutes’ walk from the
ski-slope in Pohorje, yet the bus to Maribor city centre departs
just outside as well. The staff are always on hand to serve you
a drink from the comfortable bar or help out with any queries
and they might even lend you an umbrella if it’s raining outside,
which is a very nice touch. The quality of the rooms is such that
lounging around in them can be an excuse for not going out.
The only problem is that you feel a tad guilty when returning

up some steps to let you in. But they do so with a smile. Q 17

Ironically enough, in Maribor it’s the vegetarians who
inevitably find themselves on a hunt for something suitable to eat, an endeavour that more often than not will
lead to a handful of pasta dishes buried somewhere in
the middle of an Italian menu, while the only problem
meat-eaters face is trying to figure out how to squeeze
in a second lunch and still have enough room left for
dinner. Given its geography and industrial past it should
come as no surprise that Balkan and Central European
food dominate the culinary scene, with Italian coming in
a distant third and a handful of Chinese, Mexican and
trendy new international places thrown in just to mix
things up a little bit. For those willing and able to travel
beyond the centre of town there are quite a few good
family-run places to be found scattered throughout
the surrounding countryside, which not only serve
up tasty traditional cuisine and copious amounts of
local wine, but also provide a memorable experience.

forests halfway up a mountain, this well-known restaurant
has made every effort to evolve its menu from traditional
to more contemporary tastes, without losing the essential
substance of the former. It also has a selection of game

Villa Rustica H-2, Majcigerjeva 36, tel. 420 51 72,
www.villa-rustica.si/. Pohorje-based restaurant with a
slight difference in that it celebrates what Italian, rather
than Slovene, cuisine has had to offer over the centuries.
Given that there are Roman ruins nearby this choice seems
highly appropriate. But when you step outside and peer up

of Maribor’s trendiest restaurant definitely know what
they’re doing. From the lighting to the service to the food
this place exudes a cosmopolitan ambiance that you’d
be hard-pressed to find anywhere else in the country. Of
course all that style doesn’t come cheap. Although some
à la carte dishes will set you back less than €10, the often
changing multi-course menus can cost up to four times
that - or six if you opt to have a matching wine for every
dish - and require advanced booking. Highly recommended

Sobočan G-1, Celovška 13, tel. 623 23 13. On the way
to, rather than in, the Pohorje mountain district, this inn offers a
slightly more international menu than a number of others of its
kind in the area. Limited accommodation is also available, not
unusually for these parts, and though the picturesque views of
some of its counterparts are missing, as a stop-off eatery on

Lesjak J-2, Mariborska 7, tel. 604 04 70. A ‘stan-

The term ‘nightlife’ is a slight misnomer, since the drinking
usually begins well before the sun goes down and can
continue until the morning light reminds you that it might
be time for bed. With university students accounting for
over twenty per cent of its population, the city definitely
has a carefree time-to-party vibe to it - although the
weekends can be comparatively quiet, as that’s when a lot
of students return to their parents’ houses to stock up on
home-made food and have mother do their laundry. In absolute terms, there may not be an overwhelming number
of options, but most places do seem to draw quite a
crowd and everyone should be able to find something to
suit their tastes.

loud and nasty underground live music venue. Used to be a
bakery serving the needs of the Yugoslavian army, hence the
name (which is Slovene for ‘bakery’) but now the local grungy
types come here to act up and swill beer, which at €1.50 a
throw is some of the cheapest in town. Prides itself on its
independent, anti-establishment spirit where young artists
can have a go and see what comes out. This is apparently
why there are potraits of native Americans and totem poles

no better place to observe hard-drinking Slovene students in
their natural environment than at the Študentsko Komuno, or
‘student commune’, conveniently located right next to blocks
of student dormitories. Inside, the gaudy red and yellow paint
job may have you feeling a bit queasy before you even start
imbibing, but this is a place you come to for dirt cheap drinks
and all night parties, not subtle ambiance and sophisticated
discourse. The steady stream of Yugo and international pop
that you can expect most nights is given a respite every
Thursday, when the DJ spins some more chilled out beats,
and there’s also a proper concert venue in the back that
frequently plays host to popular regional acts and even the

what to see
Europe’s leading publisher of locally produced city guides
Most of the city’s historical sites - churches, monuments
and an oddly large number of free-standing towers - are
concentrated in a relatively small area that makes up the
old town centre, which means that half a day and a good
pair of walking shoes is all you should need to cover most
of the main sites. However, with inviting cafés and ice
cream shops every few metres, a couple of large parks
that reward aimless wandering, and lots of photogenic old
villas to the north west of the old town, you could spend
the better part of a week exploring and still find something
new around every corner. Of course like all modern cities
- especially those unfortunate enough to have had building
booms in the 1960s and ‘70s - Maribor has its fair share
of eyesores, although some of them manage to cross
the so-bad-they’re-good threshold and are worth tracking
down.

the sickly sweet goo that bees produce, which is also high
up on the list of healthy eating options. A range of different
types of honey - such as pine, chestnut, acacia, linden and
flower - can be sampled at no cost at all and for a dip into
your pocket you can also try the mead, honey liqueurs and
champagne the museum keeps, along with the bees. During

specially-made glass beehive. QOpen 09:00 - 17:00, Sat

Slovenia. You can book
a guided tour in advance
or just stroll through the

enjoy including bushes, trees and aquatic plants from far-flung
regions such as Asia, Africa and Australia. Exotic though they
may seem, they are also bread and butter to the research
institute which looks after them. If all that natural diversity

of the park. But the serenity is for the adults. The kids are
too busy whooping it up in the playground to be bothered

like a castle - more like
a rather grand administrative building - but
this is largely due to the
fact that i t has gone
through more than its
fair share of modifications, since the original
Gothic structure was
built in 1555 as a noble
residence. Renaissancestyle fortifications were added in the 17th century, along with
the southern façade, and the 18th century saw the current
staircase installed. Now, it is home to the Regional Museum

from around the area. QOpen 10:00 - 14:00, Tue, Sat 09:00

dedicated to teaching visitors
all there is to know about the
wine culture of the Styrian region of Slovenia. At 400 years
of age the vine has claimed
its rightful place in the Guinnesss Book of Records and
still bears the Zametovka or
Blue Franconian grape, one
of the oldest wine types in
the country. Only opened in
April 2007, the museum offers
guided tours and also boasts
an unparalleled collection of
Styrian wines, which can be
bought at a very generous discount. The house also plays
host to a festival in its own name which is held every September. QOpen 10:00 - 18:00. Closed Mon.
Toti Rotovž C-3, Glavni Trg, tel. 234 66 11. Almost looks
too good to be a town hall, this gorgeous little building on the
city’s main square was put up in 1515. These days both the
Slovene and EU flags flutter on the balcony, a sign of better
times than when Hitler gave a speech from the very same
place during the Nazis’ World War II occupation of the city.The
building is also home to the traditional Slovenian restaurant,
‘Toti Rotovž’ and nearby is a monument commemorating the
wave of disease that wiped out a third of the town’s population
in the 17th century. The ‘Plague Column’ was sculpted by local
artist Jozef Straub and erected in 1743.

Monuments
Bishop Slomšek Monument C-2, Slomškov trg. This
relatively new statue - only
erected in 1991 - is tucked
away in a shady corner opposite the main entrance of
Maribor’s Cathedral, where
the bishop is interred. This
is no coincidence, as it was
Slomšek who was responsible for the transfer of the
Lavantine diocese to Maribor
in 1859. The bishop also
holds the distinction of becoming th e first Slovene
saint - an honour that Pope
John Paul II personally proclaimed on a visit to Maribor in 1999. Aside from religious
activities, Slomšek was also a fervent supporter of the
Slovene language, and is largely credited with having founded
the primary school system in Slovenia.

Glavni Trg and the Plague Column
Water Tower D-3, Usnjarska 10. Called ‘Vodni stolp’
in Slovene, this small
tower was built in 1555
as part of the city’s forti fication against the
Turkish invaders. It was
also Slovenia’s first ever
winery and still functions
partly as a wine shop
today. The upper floor
of the building is similar
in style to a medieval
banquet hall and is used for wine tasting.

Originally a monastery dating from the
12th century, this redbricked cathedral was
built in its place with a
two-towered, three nave basilica between 1892 and 1900,
according to a design by Viennese architect Richard Jordan
and was dedicated to ‘St. Mary Mother of Mercy’. However,
the old monastery was constructed in rather more heroic
circumstances with local woman carrying the bricks for its
construction all the way from nearby Melje. QOpen 06:30

Maribor Cathedral C-2, Slomškov Trg 20, tel. 251 84
Appropriately located in Svobode trg (‘Freedom Square’),
this spherical bronze memorial pays tribute to those gunned
down by the Nazis during World War II for rising up against
occupation. By walking around the monument you can look
at public announcements of the executions of the some 667
people who were condemned to death by the German forces.
Erected in 1975, the sculpture is the work of local artist Slavko
Tihec, and despite its sombre purpose the good citizenry of
Maribor have dubbed the monument ‘Kojak’ because of its
resemblance to a bald head.
Erected in 1743 to replace
an older version, Maribor’s
loveliest monument serves the
unfortunate purpose of commemorating the cessation of
a plague, which killed over one
third of the city’s inhabitants
between 1680-81. The large
monument, designed by Jožef
Štraub, dominates Glavni trg
and features a golden Mary
atop an 8 metre column surrounded by six saints.

Within placid natural surroundings you can hear all about the
life of the nineteenth century Bishop Martin Slomšek who
did so much to nurture the Slovenian language and who was
made a saint for all his good works. He was beatified by Pope
John Paul II on these very grounds on September 19th 1999

and two aisles, the cathedral gained its current appearance in
the 15th century as a Gothic structure, though the Baroque
chapels date from the 16th and 18th centuries. Inside, one
is treated to the sight of a lavishly adorned altar, which lights
up the place all on its own. Don’t miss the stained glass
window commemorating Pope John Paul II’s trip to Slovenia
in 1999. Trips to the top of the tower are also available from

tower in which it is housed
was also part of the fortified
section of Maribor. Today it
is a museum displaying photos and other artefacts concerned with Jewish culture
but the building’s historical
character is still very strong
and it is regarded as one of
the city’s most important
heritage sites. Since 2001,
a number of cultural events have been held in the synagogue
and the long-term aim of the local authority - which owns the
building - is to turn it into a Slovenian Jewish Heritage Centre.

vine covered landscape of the Ljutomer-Ormož hills, and
the wine it produces, so enchanted passing crusaders
that a good number of them found it difficult to continue on
their quest to regain the Holy Land. Torn between religious
fervour and Bacchanalian urges, it was decided that the
most expedient solution would be to abandon their crusade
and instead just name the highest hill in area Jeruzalem
- which in hindsight may not have been the such a bad
decision. Regardless of the legend’s historical accuracy,
it’s a matter of fact that the region produces some of the
best wine in the country, and its wine roads are well worth
visiting. Check with the local tourist board for information
on arranging accommodation and guided tours. QOpen

ever-increasing popularity. Every Friday and Saturday healthconcious locals flock to Glavni Trg to stock up on ecologically
produced goods sold from a ring of movable wooden carts. It’s
also a great place to pick up some uniquely Slovenian gifts,
such as a wax-sealed bottle or two of medica - a sweet honeybased liqueur that our friends abroad always seem happy to
receive. QOpen , Fri 09:00 - 14:00, Sat 08:00 - 13:00.
Mariborska Tržnica D-2, Vodnikov Trg 5, tel. 251 87 28,
[email protected]. The small sloping Vodnikov Square is
a strange combination of tradition and modernity. While recent
renovations have added a large underground parking garage
and a canopy of bizarre-looking inverted umbrellas, it’s also
home to Maribor’s central market - where farmers from the
countryside still come to peddle their fruits, vegetables, flowers
and handicrafts each and every day. QOpen 06.00 - 15.00.
