Barbara Piran Beach Hotel

位置很好就在海邊，設施稍微有點老

We had two nights here as our final stop on our Slovenia fly drive. Bedroom was lovely with a balcony and sea view. The breakfast was great and all the team were really friendly and helpful. Special mention to Jasmina who was especially nice and helpful. About a 20 minute walk to the town. We managed to swim a couple of times despite the mixed weather.

The hotel is located right on the beach (well, what goes as ‘beach’ here – basically a concrete deck up to the sea), with all rooms having a sea view. It is still within easy reach of the centre of Piran, reached by a path along the coast. As you reach the hotel, you will find that parking is a real issue – there are not enough parking lots for all 50+ rooms, and the area is popular for going to the beach; the public parking lots charge 15 € per day, are at least 100 m away, and fill up as well. The reception is friendly and efficient. Once you are checked in, you walk through the breakfast room and up a ramp to a single, small, old elevator that takes you up to the rooms in the main building; it doesn’t inspire much confidence, so most guests only use it to bring their luggage to / from the rooms – it’s only three storeys max… While some rooms (those with numbers ending with x06 to x09) face the lake and the coastline of Piran, the rest is built to face more towards the sea; that makes little difference in terms of the views, but keeps the sun out more. The rooms are small for two people, in particular the wardrobe – it looks like it is rather made for a stay of a few days than for a week or two. There is a little fridge / minibar; the WiFi works. The bathrooms are very small (except for the shower), with no place to put toiletries (well, on the cistern of the toilet…) – two people will struggle to use it at the same time. There is a hair dryer with US sockets. The beds are good, but only have a single pillow type. There are opaque curtains to keep the daylight out; while they leave light through at the sides and the top, they do a reasonable job. It is very quiet at night (unless the other hotel guests aren’t…), so all set for a good night’s sleep. A simple but reasonable breakfast buffet is included in the room charge, with seating inside and on a terrace facing the beach and the sea. During the day and in the evenings, reasonable food can be had at the restaurant; the service is efficient (no long waiting times).

A great location for visiting Piran without being in the busy centre, this hotel is an easy 15 walk along the seashore path. Our room was clean and comfortable and we made use of the evening food offering of the beach bar/restaurant every day of our stay. There was plenty of choice at breakfast and all the staff we encountered were welcoming and helpful. Worth noting the charges for parking if you have a car and when arriving navigate the long road route which is much easier!

We spent one week in this hotel. I usually enjoy better places with multi-star hotels around the world, but I honestly enjoyed our stay at this hotel. I must forget some small details about the facilities in this hotel, because this hotel is older, but the main values ​​have a different way. Perfect helpful staff. Always happy and smiling lovely Lara and Sebastian etc at reception, Natasa and other staff at the bar were great. All our requirements were fixed, everything is possible, I was very happy to meet such positive and nice friendly people as we met at Barbara Piran Hotel in Slovenia. The hotel has a great location, but the sea, they have great breakfasts and everywhere in all areas it smells beautiful. Natasa and her staff behind the daily bar are impeccable! I was worried about parking the car but everything was secured as promised. My final words, if I have a chance to go back one day, I will!!! because I have to recommend this place to everyone who travels. If you have any problems, call the fantastic Lara, she is almost always there, she will help you, as they always helped me! Thank you for everyone!!!

Must say I was sceptical having holidays in Slovenia, as I live in Slovenia, so ... But let me tell you! This is something else. Beautiful beach, comfy cabanas, clear water, so pleasant. The enviroment is full of positve energy, staff super nice, food great, magical corners and designs all over. The bay is quited and super, super relaxed. I can not believe this is 60 minutes drive from my home. So lucky! Highly recommened! Thank you, Barbara!
