This hotel has so much character, which is symptomatic of being right in the middle of Kotor’s old town and only a very short distance from the main (sea) gate, outside which the tourist information kiosk is located. There are so many bars, cafés and restaurants within a few seconds’ walk.
I have no idea how old the building is but it has all the look and feel of a converted medieval castle. Our room was big and comfortable (as was the bed) with great views of the Church of St Tryphon and a small kitchen & fridge. The only minor complaint I would have is that the shower, which is separate from the sink and toilet and has no door for privacy, only has a hand held shower head. It’s not to easy to wash your hair (or anywhere else really) with one hand while having to hold the shower head with the other. Surely a hook could easily be fixed on to the wall. We even had a private sauna in the room but I can’t imagine spending €30 per day, just to get probably no more than 30 mins usage.
Breakfast, served outdoor on the patio (unless it’s raining), has a range of options and each we tried set us up for the full day.
A special mention must go to the staff, who were incredibly nice and efficient. Vladana and Milica share all the reception and breakfast service duties (alternating 7am-3pm and 3pm-11pm shifts) but are never seen without a smile on their faces and Bojana seems to combine the breakfast cooking and maid roles. They are all such lovely people.
