Hotedršica (pronounced [xɔˈteːdəɾʃitsa], in older sources Hotedražica,[2] German: Hotederschitz[2]) is a village west of Logatec in the Inner Carniola region of Slovenia.

[3] Hotedršica includes the hamlets of Griče (in older sources: V Gričih, German: Am Hügel)[2] to the north, Koš to the east, and Čajna and Log to the south.

Hotedršica lies in the middle of the Hotedršica Lowland (Slovene: Hotenjsko podolje), a low-lying area extending toward Kalce to the southeast and Godovič to the northwest with karst springs and sinkholes in the surrounding foothills.

The name is a syncopated form of *Hotedražica, derived from the personal name *Xotědragъ (from *xotěti 'to desire' + *dorgъ 'good').

[5][6] The parish church in the settlement is dedicated to John the Baptist and belongs to the Ljubljana Archdiocese.
