An excellent breakfast served by attentive staff was served daily, but the property seemed a little run down. The location of the property was centered in Old Town so it was convenient to activities, but the partying went on all night making sleep difficult.

Noisy & sleep only possible after 1AM

The big downside was a bar/club next door which played loud music until 1am every single day of the week. The base from the music could be heard and felt in our room. Obviously this is not the hotels fault BUT when it is a known problem they should be telling you in advance during check in or write it on their website and maybe hand out ear plugs to show they actually care. The hotel itself is nice, good location, clean but the staff was not very enthusiastic and it felt a bit awkward coming into the lobby. The room was nice, had a fridge, big bathroom and nice beds.

Great hotel but in the noisy neighbourhood

Nice hotel in the middle of Kotor's old town. Very helpful staff (got a lot of good tips and upgraded to a nicer room). Tasty local breakfast. Unfortunately the hotel is located in the very noisy area, a lot of night clubs and pubs located just outside the hotel so it is noisy during the night (until 1am or even longer). The hotel provided us earplugs so after the first bad night, other nights were more comfy.

Hotel and staff were great, but unfortunately a pub is located directly outside the hotel and plays loud music until the early hours. There is also a second outside club bar to the rear of the property, which also plays music to the early hours. The hotel staff were great and gave us ear plugs, which was great, but not really what we were expecting.

If sleep is important to you, this is NOT the hotel to stay at. The hotel itself is great, charming, the reality is it is next door to effectively a nightclub. The music goes on till approx 1.30am, EVERY NIGHT and it doesn't matter what floor of the hotel you are on, it's unavoidable. Do not stay on the first floor at any cost, you will not sleep. Otherwise, breakfast and the rooftop are both great.

This is a tough review to write, because the property was complicated. It is within the old walled city (awesome) so was a little challenging to find (addresses are unusual, and parking was difficult). The staff were so friendly and helpful (awesome) but there was no hot water during our stay (not awesome) and the bar across the street/alleyway was really loud until 2am. Really loud, as in impossible to sleep. Not the hotel's fault, but be aware. And the hotel doesn't appear to be finished yet, as there were no numbers on the rooms on our floor, and evidence of construction underway on other floors. So overall, really great potential but check before you stay.

One of the male receptionist was really made our stay uncomfortable. When we ask some information we got wrong info. Everytime we talk to him he made us feel we are unwelcome. Other than this one person other staff in hotel helped us a lot.

Loved this hotel! A boutique hotel in the heart of the Kotor old town. The facilities were 10/10 and the staff were helpful whenever we had a question. The room and the bathroom were spacious with all the amenities we could need. The breakfast every morning was great and the restaurant on the roof had and incredible view and even better food.

Noisy beyond belief. Not their fault and they do warn you but it's not just a bit noisy it's 2 nightclubs noisy. Ruined the stay for us. Nothing else to say. I hope they can remedy it as it would certainly make a difference.
