Boutique Hotel Alhambra

I have been visiting the Alhambra Hotel for many years, drawn by the pristine nature of Cikat Bay and Michael Golenz's exquisite Michelin star cuisine. Michael's culinary dinner creations are nothing short of superb; his signature appetisers are a gourmet's dream, a masterpiece that delights the palate and captivates the eye. A diverse culinary offering, blending tradition and innovation, comes to life through local ingredients, ensuring each visit is a distinctive and ever-evolving experience. We equally cherished our mornings gathered together for Michael's diverse and elegant breakfast - a delightful blend of top quality à la carte selections and beautifully presented buffet delicacies. Despite his immense talent, Michael remains humble and approachable, allowing his cooking art to speak for itself. Beyond the culinary excellence; the exceptional service provided by Nemanja at the beach, the always friendly and helpful Bojan at reception & concierge services, and Goran's smooth airport transfer, made our stay more enjoyable. The hotel's pet-friendly policy is widely appreciated, welcoming dogs, dear family members, also on the beach deck, alongside their humans. The dogs behaved perfectly, and often went unnoticed because of how calm they were. In fact, the dogs contributed as delightful conversation starters among guests. However, hotel operations and services (housekeeping, food & beverage, and reception) could improve significantly. E.g. Checking into unclean rooms, and repeatedly experiencing poor F&B and reception service was disappointing, and requires serious attention.

We stayed for the new years celebration at the hotel for two nights, room was a quite big with a small balcony and wide bed, big TV and well sized bathroom with bath and shower seperate. Nice nespresso with some excotic coffea in the room with free small Mini bar. Nice touch was welcome aperitiv and sweet/ liker for a good night sleep. The main Season for the hotel is the summer so they opened just for year end but all in function with nice warm indoor swiming pool abd small sauna which is ok as the hotel is not very big as well. Nice lobby with a very friendly staff to help out as needed. Great breakfast with mix of buffet and to order, tasty and just too much things to Eat. Parking including filling up with electricity is available and free. New year dinner at their Michelin star resturant was perfect and the DJ and intimate small NY party was a nice change from the Xmas crowds. The area is great to walk just by the sea and the cikat bay and is very peaceful. Mali Lošinj is a 10 minute walk away was nice to see.

Hotel eccellente, per locali e posizione sul mare. Ottima la prima colazione. Reception e servizi cortesi e veloci. Meriterebbe la valutazione più alta se non fosse per il servizio in camera, decisamente scadente: la prima sera, arrivando, abbiamo addirittura trovato le lenzuola sporche e abbiamo dovuto chiamare la reception per farle cambiare. Ma durante tutta la permanenza il servizio in camera non è stato adeguato. Peccato, perché per ogni altro aspetto un hotel eccellente.
