Fantastic massages
Wonderful hotel! Good room, some of them with thermal water. Very nice swimming pool: we recommend massages because they are fantastic! Very rich breakfast and a lot of variety for dinner. Good service level. 1 km far from the little town: very suggestive view although not great shopping. The hotel could be also useful for meeting and convention.
Echologist, Hamburg, Germany
Perfect hotel for a business meeting
The hotel was great, the staff very friendly and the help with organizing the meeting perfect. There was lots of great food at breakfast and dinner. The hotel is close to the old city in Ptuj and in the morning it is very easy to take a relaxing swim or jog along the river.

The Thermal Park

The Thermal Park offers so many activities that we sometimes jokingly ask our visitors whether they’ve made an itinerary of things to try this time. O ...ur Thermal Park boasts the largest system of waterslides in Slovenia, which includes waterslides with rafts, landing jumps up to 7 m long and slower waterslides with more twists and turns. The Olympic-size swimming pool with a diving board is large enough for swimming and the many water attractions organised by our entertainment coordinators. The wave pool and children’s pool with play equipment will keep our youngest guests entertained. On the edge of the park, near the tall trees, you will find the relaxation pool. The indoor Thermal Park is open all year round and features thermal pools, whirlpools, one outdoor pool and an indoor waterslide. Hotel guests have free admission twice a day to the Thermal Park.

Slovenia’s oldest town

Ptuj is the oldest town in Slovenia. Some two thousand years ago, in the time of ancient Rome, the town bustled with activity. It was simply bubbling ...with life, much like the thermal water that was later discovered on the right bank of the Drava, the river that wends its way past Ptuj. Special energies have always featured in the lives of the locals: Dravus, the energy of the Drava, washes away negative energy; the ancient temples dedicated to the god Mithras help to achieve inner balance; and the Kurent brings vital energy and good cheer. Just what the modern-day warrior needs to face daily challenges. Find the motivation for new triumphs by relaxing around the Ptuj thermal springs, exercising and enjoying the fine wines from the local hills.

Who was the Grand Hotel Primus named after?

Where Grand Hotel Primus stands today, a military consultation was held in the year 69 to choose the new emperor of the Roman Empire. It was Marcus Antonius Primus, the legion commander, who had a decisive influence on the election of Emperor Vespasian. He stood very passionately for what he believed in. Independent, capable and talented, he never hesitated and was always ready for action. He was a born motivator with excellent rhetorical skills. Described as “speaking with shining eyes and a stentorian voice”, he earned great trust and a solid reputation among the soldiers. We should all be Primus sometimes and put ourselves first (in Latin, “primus” signifies “the first”).
