The location couldn't have been more perfect with an amazing view out the window. Having staff help with transportation to and from areas where cars allowed was very helpful. The room was lovely with a lot of character.
What a lovely place. Claudia went out of her way to accommodate every need. We sat on the balcony over looking the bay every evening. Convenient to great bars and restaurants. Clean and nice
The room was very spacious and comfortable; perfectly located. The staff are amazing and were extremely helpful in transferring us from the ferry and making sure we were established with our rental car. Highly recommended.
We had a lovely stay and will definitely visit again. Rovinj is beautiful and the residence is charming and so well located - right next to the water and all the amazing restaurants.
See you again soon!

Beautiful old building right on the water.
Comfortable bed and an espresso maker!
Was difficult to find the day we checked in.
Claudia was extremely nice and accommodating. It was great to have the pickup service available to help with our luggage. Most places around the area were closed because of off-season but it looked like there was a lot to offer.
Charming spot with view on the water with a small balcony. The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming. The shower is extremely small and water tank also small, so not good for a large person and you will run out of hot water quickly. They offer a voucher for breakfast at the Hotel Adriatic which is fabulous—-but be sure to ask the cost, as it was pricey and we only found out AFTERWARDS the cost. It is above a cafe/restaurant, so it may be loud in the high season. Lovely staff!
Lovely hotel in the best location. Friendly staff. Cosy and practical. Kitchen works for simple dinners. Lovely view of the harbour and nightlife but quiet anyway (2nd floor).
Shop at Grocery King in the old town instead of konzum or studenac.
The hotel is VERY good located and the city is really beautiful so that makes everything goes fine. We stayed with very hot weather and the fridge must be improved. But Claudia and Petra tried to do their best so we can enjoy our stay. It will be wonderful if the hotel renovate the rooms
We stayed in the attic apartment which was quaint and comfortable with a lovely view. We enjoyed being in the center of activity yet the apartment was quiet. The staff was very helpful and very welcoming. Picking us up at our car with their electric vehicle was a game changer in the hot weather. We loved our stay and would highly recommend it. Even the 4 flights of stairs was easy with the staff helping with the suitcases!
We had an amazing stay at the Residence Porta Antica! We called the hotel when we were unsure with parking and Claudia came in her cart to show us where to park and then drive us to the hotel! She was such a pleasure and so friendly! She gave us a warm welcome and recommended several restaurants, as well as ice cream places! She allowed us to keep our bags in the hotel after checkout because we were going to explore Rovinj before leaving the city. The room itself was stunning. The vibe of the hotel was beautiful and having the ocean right outside the window was perfect. We could not recommend this place enough! Great staff, great location, great rooms!
This is fabulously convenient on the south side of the Rovinj peninsula. From the principal car park, it is a 7-10 minute walk with a rolling suitcase. Staff was very friendly and our room had a lovely view of harbor. Bed was reasonably comfortable. Kitchenette was nice. Rovinj in the late fall (late November) is pretty dead - heads up. Very few dining establishments were open. (again, why having the kitchenette was so nice.)

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This room was charming and in a great location. It is, however, very small, with no real place to sit, except one antique desk chair. The employee who checked us in was very friendly and helpful.
One note about the location -- it is GREAT in terms of being very close to the waterfront and right in the heart of town, with many restaurants and shops only steps away. One aspect of being in the center of things, though, is that it is not quiet. If you are an "early to bed" person, there was live music being played, seemingly right outside our window. It didn't go on terribly late, but was loud while it lasted.
The other thing to be aware of is that parking in Rovinj is a real challenge. The hotel recommended a parking lot, and offered to pick us up there to take us to the hotel, but that lot was full and we ended up parking some distance away. We figured it out, and searching for parking seems to be part of the Rovinj experience, but we found it confusing to navigate.
All in all, we were very happy with the Porto Antica.
