Layer House is a vibrant cultural hub in the old part of Kranj, with a beautiful view of Šmarjetna mountain and Škrlovec Tower. House, protected as cultural heritage, hosts gallery spaces, residencies and a lovely cafeteria with a stunning terrace - one of the best spots in town to have a cup of coffe. In the warmer months, the terrace is the venue for many events: concerts, dance and literary evenings, lectures and exhibition openings. The location of the house in the old town is an ideal starting point for exploring all the beauties of Kranj: cultural quarter, the Kokra river canyon, the tunnels under Kranj, the Bobovek lakes and the Udin boršt landscape park.
Layer House offers sleeping residences set in the pleasantly lively atmosphere of a 19th-century townhouse. They are located on the top floor of the house, which you’ll find on a quiet, traffic-free city street. The rooms offer accommodation for 12 people and, among the winding staircases, studios and exhibition and event spaces, offer a unique getaway with a touch of creative energy.
There are three independent living units: Studio, Suita and Backstage.
