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.

Beautiful place! Very clean and very unique. The location is great! It’s close to everything (shopping, hiking, sightseeing, food market, beach. The club next to the hotel was too noisy every night until midnight. If you like to party you would like that.

Hotel is in the heart of Old Town. Given the area it’s in, it’s an old building that has been updated. Staff were great, they even accommodated a last minute early check in

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.

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.

Lovely boutique hotel in a very convenient location in the heart of the old town of Kotor. The staff were very nice and the rooms and breakfast lovely. Our room was very noisy though - one side of the hotel is directly next to a very noisy bar. The other downside was a bathroom door that didn’t shut properly or lock. Not sure why they think this is a positive thing?!

Great stay, would definitely stay again. One comment though, our room was directly above a very lively space below, which had loud music deep into the night. Didn't bother us to much, but could be an issue to some.

If I could give the hotel 10 stars, I would. It was a beautiful boutique hotel right in the heart of the old town. The room was quirky and just beautiful. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Probably one of the best that I have stayed at.

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.

Expectations exceeded
Everything from when we walked in to when we left was wonderful. Front desk staff is fantastic, always ready to offer suggestions on where to go and what to see. The breakfast was great, fresh corn muffins, homemade jams, crapes and eggs made to order any way you want them. Coffee and fresh squeezed orange juice. I was really surprised. Rooms are nice and air conditioned. Location is great, right in the centre of old town Kotor. They also have a rooftop restaurant, great place to sit after a long day and have a snack/drink. I have nothing but wonderful things about this location. Thank you!

Well designed and interesting property within an excellent location in the old town. Excellent, friendly service from all the staff. Disappointed that the roof terrace was not open as was part of the reason for choosing the hotel. It was even advertised in the lobby of the hotel. But, wonderful that a pick up, free of charge, was offered from Tivat airport

Awesome hotel in the middle of old town!
Awesome suite with 2 bathrooms! Reception staff super friendly and knowledgeable about Kotor and all the sights. Hotel location in the middle of old town was one reason we selected this hotel and even though parking (like all hotels in old town) is outside of city walls it was not terribly difficult walking the 5-10 mins to the hotel. We love the hotel so much that we’ve decided to book a 2nd night.

Most Delicious Breakfast in a Hotel in Kotor
Amazing hotel with incredible staff trying their best to make their customers happy. Special thank and appreciation to Mr. Ranco who was serving me breakfast every morning. So hospitable, friendly, and a main reason to make my day starts in a good way. The breakfast he was serving was so fresh, trying to let me try different local dishes every morning. The location of the hotel is amazing in the center of the old city. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone wishing to visit Kotor.
