Postojnska jama d.d. was the Most-Awarded Company at the Prestigious 2025/2026 Meeting Star Awards

Postojnska jama d.d. was the big winner at this year’s Meeting Star Awards ceremony, which took place on 11 February 2026 in the Cankarjev dom cultural and congress centre – it was the only company to receive five awards. The awards were presented as part of the Conventa international trade show, which is considered one of the key meetings of the events industry in Central and Southeastern Europe.

 

This achievement has confirmed the company’s leading role in the development of boutique, sustainable and experience-oriented MICE tourism in Slovenia. The expert jury recognised the unique features of two of the company’s destinations in particular – Postojna Cave and Vila Planinka. Each of the two destinations combines natural heritage, a sustainable philosophy and a top-notch experience for organisers of corporate events in its own unique way.

 

Postojna Cave – a top-notch event venue in a one-of-a-kind natural setting

Postojna Cave received the highest award in the Outdoor and Natural Event Venues category:

  • Outdoor and Natural Event Venues in Slovenia – 1st place
  • Outdoor and Natural Event Venues – 3rd place

These awards have confirmed that Postojna Cave is one of Slovenia’s most impressive congress venues, where awe-inspiring subterranean architecture provides a one-of-a-kind backdrop for receptions, presentations and exclusive business events. This very combination of natural heritage, logistical perfection and an experiential approach is the destination’s most important competitive advantage.

 

Vila Planinka – A Sustainable Boutique Hotel for High-Level Meetings

Vila Planinka, an alpine boutique hotel amid unspoiled nature in Slovenia’s Jezersko area, has received several awards that highlight its sustainable concept and personalised guest experience:

  • Most Sustainable Meeting Hotels in Slovenia – 3rd place
  • Boutique Meeting Hotels – 3rd place
  • Boutique Meeting Hotels in Slovenia – 2nd place

The hotel’s wow factors include its intimate atmosphere, individualised approach and commitment to sustainability – from local cuisine to respectful coexistence with the Alpine environment. Vila Planinka is a perfect choice for executive meetings, incentive programmes and smaller strategic events where peace and quiet, privacy and nature as a source of inspiration are of key importance.
