Posest Kunigunda is managed by Pinocchio d.o.o., a Slovenian company with roots in design and fashion since 1993, which expanded into hospitality in 2023 with one clear purpose: to offer guests what no hotel can — complete privacy, handcrafted spaces, and curated experiences in the heart of Slovenia's Savinja Valley. The estate was conceived and built by a team that believes in the value of slowing down — in materials that have a story, in food sourced from local farms, and in hospitality that feels personal rather than transactional. Since opening, Posest Kunigunda has welcomed couples seeking a private escape, families celebrating milestone occasions, and companies looking for a retreat far from conventional venues. Every guest is personally welcomed. Every breakfast is prepared with local ingredients. Your stay — whether one night or several — is crafted around you. Our team speaks Slovenian and English and is available throughout your stay.

Posest Kunigunda is a private hillside estate above Šmartinsko Lake in Slovenia's Savinja Valley, with panoramic views over the Celje Basin and surrounding vineyards. This is not a hotel.
