    True oasis in the Heart of Kotor

    The room does not have coffee/tea facilities, this isn’t really a problem because they also provide excellent morning coffees if you go downstairs for it. So remember to do so ;)

    it is amazing how such a historical building in the middle of the old town can be such an oasis of peace and relaxation. The room was spacious, even the shower was large which is typically not the case in comparable circumstances. Staff is great and helpful, breakfast is awesome

    Beautifully furnished room in the center of Kotor. Loved the location, nearby everything. But the best of all is staff. Very polite and willing to go above and beyond to make my stay memorable. The food at the restaurant is great as well, but go at the rooftop terrace restaurant. The view is amazing and the overall experience 10/10. Will stay here again definitely!

    A fantastic location in the heart of Old Town. The staff were on a level I’ve never experienced before, I felt like I’d found a new family such was their thoughtfulness and consideration about every aspect of our stay. The hotel is spotlessly clean. We had a joyous time and would return without hesitation. Thank you all so much.

    hardly anything to dislike. It was really lovely. Maybe it is a bit a hassle to get with bags to the pedestrian area where the hotel is, but the hotel offers help for bringing the luggage from the public parking to the hotel, and this can be easily arranged.

    Great location if you want to stay in Kotor old town with such a unique character and beautiful buildings, lovely narrow streets, cafes & restaurants. Thed Hotel is beautifully, elegantly and thoughtfully designed, with full attention to details. We had very comfortable suite, and truly enjoyed the place, people , food and overall atmosphere

    The beds should have been larger and the pillows softer. A very loud music (next door) keeps you awake up to midnight. At least the songs played were great hits :).

    The staff (guys at the reception and the girl serving the breakfast) was excellent, very attentive to the clients' requests and welcoming. The hotel location was very central. Every area of the hotel was very clean. The breakfast quite good.

    The staff in the hotel were exceptionally friendly and helpful, every single one of them but especially the staff at breakfast time and on reception. The food at breakfast was excellent and staff were eager to please and set you up for the day. The location was excellent, in the old town and it was just beautiful. Lots of bars and restaurants nearby. Loved our stay here!

    Good value stay in Old Town Kotor with trade-offs of noise.

    Stayed one night in October (town pretty empty). Bar next door was blasting music even though there's very few people in town. Closed both shutters and windows, with room air on resulted in muffling most of noise. But noise seems to be common in most of Old Town, so it's a trade-off of staying in the town walls or outside. Also shower design was poor. Results in water all over floor and no shelf for soap.

    Good value hotel if you want to stay in Old Town Kotor. Service and breakfast was good.
