We loved having dinner on the rooftop. Dino and Philip made our dinner experience exceptional. I loved that there was an elevator to take our luggage up to our room.

I know people have complained about the loud music from the local club/bar but our room was quiet. Room #303!

The location was perfect, in the heart of the old town, staff were friendly and helpful

Bathrooms were slightly dark and there could have been more shelving/hooks and full-length mirror, especially when two people are sharing. The breakfast choice could be more varied. Although we were warned in advance about the nightclub at the rear of the hotel, we weren’t aware that it was actually outside in the courtyard, so even the triple glazing struggled to cope.

Excellent location and lovely room. Added extra bonus of a lovely roof top terrace for evening drinks looking out over the spectacular mountains (I think also you could have dinner out there, although we did not). Great time had.

It would have been nice to have some fresh fruit at breakfast and/or yoghurt. There didnt seem to be much consistency with the breakfast service in that other guests were offered some other options - e.g. salad. Also great coffee machine in room, but no pods?

Great location in the heart of the old city. Definitely was a good choice as the weather wasn’t that warm. From here we explored the entire bay of Kotor. Was lovely to wonder around the old city and get lost in the little lanes, shops and to have bars and restaurants at our doorstep. Fantastic service by very welcoming & helpful staff. Great room with a separate lounge room. And Netflix available as well. Breakfast was nice with traditional Montenegro cuisine. Rooftop bar cute but was rather chilly so we didn’t use it much.

The main issue as others have mentioned is the noise until midnight from the bar downstairs just opposite the hotel. It’s loud. The thick windows do provide a barrier for the loud music but you can still hear it. The room needed an extra rubbish bin, only one small one in bathroom. Aircon was a little hard to control and use. A couple of bottles of water & a tissue box somewhere in the room would have been nice extras. But overall it was a great stay. I’m fussy & I would recommend this one.

I am going to start by saying that I had a great stay at this hotel. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our every need. The room was super clean and the food was exceptional. The hotel probably has the best rooftop in old town, which makes dining experience memorable. The view of the fortress from the rooftop is stunning. I would definitely go back and recommend this place to everyone visiting Kotor.

Excellent location, friendly staff, they’re ready to help in any case. I stay here for the 2nd time and I always ready to come back to this hotel❤️ They also have nice authentic interior!

The music in the restaurant nearby is extremely loud!!! It was impossible to sleep even with the closed windows until 3 am!!! Hotel team moved us to another room, huge thanks! And breakfast could be better🙏

I don’t think I stated a preference for a quiet room since I was aware that there would be noise at night in Old Town. It got quiet not too late. I was very happy with my choice of hotel. I would recommend it. And the restaurant is fabulous, serving some of the best food at the atmospheric rooftop. Staff was great at the hotel and restaurant.

I liked everything.

Very nice modern hotel in an old stonehouse in okd town if Kotor. Very nice bathroom. Breakfast possible to eat outside as well. Staff very helpful, part of our luggage came the day after we checked-in, when we were out driving. Staff took care about everything and picked it up at the north gate of Starigraf Kotor.

Music bar outside twin bed room.

We loved the location of the hotel. Right in the middle of the Old Town, but very close to drop off and pick up points. The rooms were very comfortable, the bed particularly, and lots of space for 2 persons . The complimentary breakfast was quite adequate and we were all happy with it.

We liked everything .
