The hotel’s former reception area has been transformed into Sophia, a gourmet restaurant dedicated to the beauty of Italian diva Sophia Loren. The stone columns, grand chandeliers, and large fireplace with a painting are all original features of the old Palace Hotel, carefully restored during the hotel’s renovation.
This prestigious restaurant is a jewel of the Portorož culinary scene, offering exquisite Mediterranean cuisine enriched with local ingredients and global flavours. The experience becomes truly unforgettable with a look at the wine list, featuring a superb selection of Slovenian and international wines.
