Key information
Culinary delights and digital detox
Much has changed since 1890, but the enticing scent of coffee, excellent service and food that makes you happy have remained.
In the shade of chestnuts in a garden in Bohinjska Bistrica, near the Cecconi Park by the Belca River is a restaurant that has been spoiling its guests since 1890. Then part of the elegant Markeš Hotel, it is now part of the fully renovated boutique Sunrose 7 Hotel, which offers its guests, who must be at least 18 years old, a digital detox experience. This means taking a break from worries and wild daily schedules, and enjoying every moment along with superlative cuisine.
A hundred-year old tradition with lots of love, mixed with modern components, is at the core of the restaurant’s culinary attractions. Like the hotel, the restaurant also only accepts guest over 18 years old. There is no permanent menu in the Sunrose 7’s restaurant, as they believe that the best food comes from the heart and inspiration, and from the boxes and baskets of local producers. They take care that their supply chains are short, and follow the zero waste principle. They cook with fresh, seasonal and organically produced ingredients.

Drinking coffee with Franz Ferdinand
With the development of tourism, word of the good food and friendly service spread fast and drew prominent Austro-Hungarians to the hotel and restaurant. The most famous was the ill-fated heir to the throne, Franz Ferdinand, who visited the place after the opening of the Bohinj railway in 1906.
At that time, coffee drinking already had a great symbolic value. The Sunrose 7 is still aware of it today and pays special attention to the selection of coffee. It offers arabica of the highest quality, which is available only in select cafés. The coffee is grown on the high-altitude slopes of North and South America and Africa, and only very carefully selected beans are used. The staff say that when it comes to coffee they “work first with their heart, then their knowledge, and last but not least, respect for the entire production process.”
