Grand Plaza Hotel sits right in the old town, a few steps from the Triple Bridge. It is a beautiful spot — and also one where the cobblestones at 4am with two suitcases remind you that a car at the door is worth more than you thought.
What we offer: an independent driver, a fixed price agreed before you travel, and 15 years of doing exactly this. If you have luggage, a group, or an early flight — we are probably the right call. If you are travelling light and your flight is at noon, the bus from the city centre is €4.10.
We will be here when you need us. And honest with you when you don't.

No — there is no direct train to the airport. The closest station is Kranj, about 20 minutes from Brnik by taxi. The most practical public option is the airport bus from Ljubljana's central bus station (€4.10, roughly hourly).
GoOpti is a shared transfer service — you share the vehicle with other passengers. Prices are typically €10–20 per person. It is a good budget option if you travel solo, have a flexible schedule and do not mind detours for other pickups. For groups, early flights, or when timing matters, a private transfer is usually better value overall.
It is worth asking at reception — some hotels include a shuttle or have a preferred rate. Prices vary. If the hotel option works for you, use it. If not — or if you want a comparison — we are here.
From €40 for a car (up to 4 passengers), from €60 for a van (up to 8). The exact price is confirmed at booking and does not change.
Yes — same price in both directions. We track your flight and adjust pickup if the flight is delayed. No extra charge for delays.
