Pangsapuri di Budva

I long wondered if the star system is self appointed as the difference between hotels that claim to be 5 star varies so greatly. One also has to acknowledge that luxury is subjective and therefore even human reviews make it difficult to navigate. However here we go with my thoughts on our stay. The rooms are of a fine size. As a family of four I would say a snug fit. Bath and shower in bathrooms. The sofa is fine for a child, but two children was a challenge, so we had one stay in our bed. Which is a large 2 x 2. The room was clean, but not spotless and refurbishment is needed to bring it up to a more modern feel. If you pay for pool view then ask to be 3-7 floor to allow for a sea view. Our level one view was pool and people outside our balcony about a meter away. The pools are great, however here too the wear and tear is evident, with loose ladders or old tiles. The QR code system for drinks and food was efficient. We never struggled to find places to sit, however being a huge hotel the crowds can be overwhelming. The has been much excitement in reviews around the beach however we felt very underwhelmed. The sardine element of being shoulder to shoulder on grey pebbles/sand was not our idea of luxury. The food unfortunately was average but at 5 star prices. The buffet is big, but the quality of certain items is terrible. My never waste hubby, had to dispose of the prawns at first mushy defrosted bite. However we had some nice meats and fish from the bbq at the beach restaurant and the pizza was ok. Kids club was a favourite for the kids, lots of activities and both the 4 & 10 yo had fun. Service was always friendly, varying sometimes in skills. A peeve of ours was the very tacky cornering of water fountain for dinner with cardboard. It doesn’t scream even 3 star. We drink sparkling so would order regardless, but in this heat with mostly kids, it seems in bad form. Just like paid for coffee in your room. We personally would not come back and don’t see the value, however I think it’s not a bad hotel for a family, definitely would not recommend for couples.

Polecam z całego serca.

The hotel's breathtaking ocean views were simply mesmerizing. Waking up to the sound of waves crashing and being able to enjoy a cup of coffee while overlooking the sparkling blue waters was a dream come true. The room itself was elegantly designed with a perfect blend of comfort and luxury. The staff was incredibly attentive and went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was enjoyable.

Отличный отель. Уютный, чистый, все организовано и продуманно. Бесплатная парковка, пляж в 100 метрах. Номер небольшой, но со всем необходимым (чайников и бесплатной воды в номерах, видимо, во всей Черногории не предоставляют). Завтраки отличные, вкусные и сытные, бассейн с сауной на втором этаже. Единственное, если рано ложитесь спать - берите номера с видом на парковкой (они без балкона, вида на море, но зато никто не будет ходить и петь песни по ночам под балконом). Особое спасибо русскоговорящей девушке на рецепшн - моментально и недорого повысила категорию номера, и просто очень красивая!

Just home after the most wonderful stay at this beautiful hotel in Budva. We flew into Podgorica, about an hours drive, we took a taxi/ transfer. Upon arrival at the hotel, we were warmly welcomed and given complimentary champagne. The lobby is beautifully tasteful. The lady who checked us in was most polite and helpful, truly an excellent example of what front of house should be at a 5 star hotel. Our room (203) was on the second floor, to the side of the hotel, immaculate and spacious, so well presented. Bathroom was also spacious with complimentary toiletries, including shampoo and conditioner in large bottles (a huge plus as a travelling female) Room had very comfortable bed, a seating area and a large balcony also with seating area. Coffee machine and kettle provided, as was a well stocked minibar. Robes and slippers in the wardrobe were top quality. Everything about the room was top quality. We ordered room service on our first evening and this was very generous, presented perfectly. Breakfast was buffet style and catered for all tastes and choices, very fresh, well stocked and well organised breakfast session. The rooftop pool restaurant and bar area was fantastic, we spent a lot of time up here taking in the stunning views, enjoying lunch and reasonably priced drinks. The pool was clean and very well maintained, more of a spa type pool than a hotel pool. Lunches that we enjoyed consisted of pizzas, Italian thin style and delicious, so fresh. We also ate in the rooftop restaurant one evening, my husband had the prawns with vegetables, and said they were the best prawns he had ever eaten. Beautiful ambiance of an evening on the rooftop. The old town is approx 20 mins walk away, and nice for a stroll around, we however, couldn’t get enough of this fantastic hotel, and spent most of our stay here. Thankyou to each and every member of staff who made our stay so amazing, our first visit to Montenegro, and we will most certainly return. Wonderful hotel.

I was staying in Fontana Residence Budva at Fontana Hotel (it belongs to another owner). Hotel was actually great (location and ambience). But the apartment I was staying was terrible (not the room but the host). 1) came early at 11-12plus but understand apartment will be ready only from 130pm-2pm. That's fine. So we went to lunch nearby. However, at about 1pm, host suddenly text us (few times) requesting us to come back (in 15 minutes). Luckily we were nearby so quickly rushed back. 2) whatsapped host on apartment questions, typed in both English and Serbian as she was more comfortable in Serbian, (as hotel staff will redirect them to host. Fair enough as it does not belong to hotel). Eventually host told us not to bother her (she later deleted the message which I failed to screenshot). 3) host tried to justify review but saying person in contact is staff not host and I did not contact host for the problems. Also claimed staff came at 1pm as a favour but I misused (which is a strong accusation). - firstly: how would I as an outsider know if the person is a host/guest (is not written anywhere on them or in any of our online conversations. There was no introduction too) - secondly: we never demand to check in before 130pm nor request for their staff to come down early and check us in. If she wants to come early, at least inform us prior her arrival instead of rushing us and demanding us to return in 15mins. Unfortunately, I could not share the whatsapp screenshots on reservation platform due to their T&Cs. If I could share it here, I would. Our whatsapp messages are solid claims on what really happened and host decided to brush it off and blame the customer instead. Fontana Hotel is great (the 2 stars are strictly for them) but avoid the Fontana Residence Budva (at level 8) instead. Host and staff's attitude really spoilt one's holiday.

The photos on the internet are not realistic at all. The room was dated, shower had mould in it and bedcover looks like it has seen better days and needs replacing. We had a room next to reception and noise of people coming in and out combined with a kid running around in the room above didn't lend itself to a pleasant experience. as the room was on the ground floor it had a small terrace with outdoor furniture but the zillions of mosquitos didn't permit us to enjoy that. Overall very disappointed despite the good reviews and high internet scores.

We stayed at La Villa Boutique Hotel in Budva Old Town for five nights, and we really enjoyed our visit. We initially had trouble finding the hotel, as the instructions were a little vague. But once we’d located the reception office and checked in, it was all fine. We did wonder why none of the previous reviews seemed to mention that you have to walk through the Chinese Restaurant, and past a startlingly bad statue of a tiger, to reach the rooms! Our room was on the second floor, and had a lovely view of the marina and across the Old Town walls to Budva City. It was immaculately clean and well-furnished, with a very comfortable bed, good quality linen, towels, and toiletries, and a great shower. The wifi was fast and reliable, and a kettle and a coffee pod machine was also provided in the room. Breakfasts were served downstairs, in the courtyard of the building the hotel shares with the Chinese restaurant below, and they were delicious. Despite our room overlooking the marina, being just above one of the Old Town gates, and being surrounded by restaurants, the noise at night was minimal. I always travel with earplugs, just in case, but I’m glad to say they weren’t required. Budva Old Town is incredibly beautiful, and it can also be very busy, but La Villa is situated down a quiet alleyway, so it felt very calming when coming back to the room. It did feel like returning to an oasis of tranquility. Anna and her team were very helpful, they recommended restaurants and made reservations for us, offered to arrange a trip to their favourite beach, and booked our taxi to the airport. We really enjoyed our stay at La Villa, and being right in the Old Town, made it an absolutely perfect location. Highly recommended.

Beautiful place and center of town.berakfast is more an tasty yummy .room is clean and slience

Condo hotel Allure is just amazing! we had a great time, although we have booked just few nights. Everything is super clean and brand new, and in top location. One of the best things is garage which is quite cheap ( 17eur ) looking from perspective that Budva is traffic nightmare. Staff is very polite and professional, somewhere acting as your own concierge since you can bother them with numerous questions/issues and they will solve. And we have even met owner Drasko who is guru when it comes to advices related to whole Montenegro coast, and he knows people and knows places. We have even talked a bit about real estate and if you plan to invest he is the guy to ask, and for sure he will help you! One more time huge thanks and this 5* condo really deserves 5*.
