Hotel Kolam air panas di Portoroz

Wir hatten bei der Ankunft eigentlich nicht allzu viel erwartet, da wir im nahegelegenen (über der Grenze) Schwesternhotel sehr enttäuscht wurden. Umso herzlicher war der Empfang (wir hatten 4 Zimmer gebucht). Obwohl wir sehr früh dran waren, waren unsere Zimmer alle fertig. Alle Zimmer lagen relativ nahe beieinander. Der Service im Hotel ist wirklich ausgesprochen gut, angefangen vom Management, Concierge und Zimmerservice. Da unser erster Aufenthalt im Mai war, war der Privatstrand noch nicht fertig vorbereitet. Man konnte aber erahnen, dass die Cabanas und Liegen doch sehr nett aussehen würden. Wenn da nicht die Unmengen an Menschen in der Hauptsaison wären. Zurück zum Hotel: die Zimmer sind äußerst geräumig, das Bad beinhaltet alles was man braucht und noch mehr (im Überfluss). Das Frühstücksbuffet lässt keine Wünsche offen. Es gibt wirklich nahezu alles, um absolut gut in den Tag zu starten. Alles in allem eine absolut tolle Adresse um einen nahen Urlaub am Meer von Österreich aus zu starten. Aus diesem Grund, da wir uns so wohl gefühlt hatten, sind wir im September gleich nochmals dort gewesen. Der Empfang war wieder wunderbar, wie auch der ganze Service. Wir genossen auch den tollen Afternoontea im wunderschön angelegten und gepflegten Garten. Abschließend möchte ich noch positive erwähnen, dass das Hotel extrem hundefreundlich ist, was in der Region nicht selbstverständlich ist. Unser Königspudel hat sich dort auch pudelwohl gefühlt! In der Hauptsaison muss man leider damit rechnen, dass man doch den Lärm von den gegenüberliegenden Strandbars mitbekommt. Allerdings ist dies kein Fehler des ausgesprochen tollen Hotels.

This is not a 5-star hotel. They have the potential to be 5 stars, since the facilities are fabulous. Our room was very nice looking with a great view to the hills and to the sea. The “park view” is an understatement, it was a beautiful hillside view. Also the large outdoor pool is fantastic and the breakfast terrace also offers fabulous views to the garden and to the sea. But all this goes to waste, because the staff doesn’t care to make an effort. The breakfast food was leathery and there were no sweets or pastries to have with your coffee. This was a first time with such a poor selection and quality in a 5 star hotel. There is no concierge service, you have to carry your own bags to the room, in a 5 star hotel. The staff was ignorant and rude; they kept asking constantly if we are guests of this hotel. As if we were not good enough to be guests of this hotel so they had to keep snobbishly asking about it all the time. There is no room service in this hotel whatsoever. When we wanted our clothes washed, we call the reception to have somebody pick it up from our room and it will be returned the next day before 18.00 like they promise in the room’s laundry info leaflet. When we called, the receptionist responded by saying it is already late (19.00), so could we bring the laundry to the reception by ourselves. Then the next day, when by 21.00, the laundry bag still had not been returned to our room, we went to the reception to ask about it. It tuns out the bag is there forgotten. The receptionist told us we have to take it to the room by ourselves, as she cannot send anybody to bring it to us and she cannot leave the reception herself. We cannot believe this amount of self-service one has to endure in a 5 star hotel. The reception staff didn’t bother to give us the towel card at the arrival or inform us that we need one when we go to the large outdoor pool. So when we went to the pool, the poolboy informed us that we need the towel card and should walk all the way back up to the huge hill to the hotel reception to get it. It’s ridiculous that they make customers run around like this. The pools are only open till 19.00, which is really odd in a 5 star hotel. There is no reason why they can’t be open till 21 or 22 like in many other hotels, many guests would love to swim and relax in the evening when it’s not so hot anymore. Then the pool staff started shutting down the outdoor pool umbrellas and chairs already at 18.00, even though guests were still using those. The jacuzzi was turned off already at 18.00, even though it was supposed to be open till 19.00. And the employee at the pool refused to turn it back on and claimed they were all in “maintenance”, even though they had water in them. So clearly there was maintenance, just ignorance towards his job. We have paid for the jacuzzi and we want to use it during our stay. You shouldn’t do “maintenance” on all the 3 jacuzzis you have at the same time, so the guests can enjoy at least o

Hotel a 5 stelle , ubicato fronte mare. Accoglienza da parte della reception e dei ragazzi addetti alle vetture (garage al coperto d custodito) di prim'ordine ordine. Stanza assegnata molto accogliente e con ottima pulizia, bagno ampio con asciugamani e accappatoi sempre puliti ( cambio giornaliero ) Ristorante, prima colazione e cena a buffet con ampia scelta tra cibi freddi e caldi cucinati dul momento. Piscine con acqua di mare riscaldate molto grandi, molti sdraio a bordo piscina per il relax. Veramente soddisfatto di tutto.

Check-in is in the neghbouring Apollo and was, shall we say, unenthusiastic. Was told no parking space available, the ”bell hop” would guide me to the parking 2km away for free. I assume driving while using your phone is legal in Slovenia? No? In retrospect, it was the transfer that was free not parking. Using the hotel as a base to explore the region, I wasn't going to go through the inconvenience of this every time so I found a place behind the hotel (Parkirišče Vila Marija at €18/day - cash only, takes up to €50 notes, change in coins). Then we were directed to our rooms - up the steps, behind the bar, past the play area, through the doors and down the corridor. Who cares if we had 3 heavy suitcases? Where was the ”bell hop” now? The lift serving 5 floors is miniscule and we frequently slogged up the stairs in the heat rather than wait or share with malodoured fellow guests. Reviews describe rooms as tired or dated - the decor was a bit mediocre and dated but overall were very clean and bright and beds comfortable and the shower very good, if dimly lit. Aircon struggled with 30 degree heat. Breakfast (avoiding the lift down to -1) wasn't great for a vegetarian. Cereals with chocolate, croisants and pastries that never felt 100% fresh, coffee from a machine that was certainly instant. OK juice. Eggs looked unapealling. Definitely not 4*. And the vultures (staff) zooming around grabbing any plates, cups and utensils from tables, often before they were truly finished with! Reaching over your shoulder and, in once instance, standing on my foot. The whole fitness/wellbeing/spa/health thing is cosmetic. The website could be a load of AI generated mumbo jumbo for all its worth. Very few facts, such as the parking situation. Following the signs for the swimming pool took me all the way to Apollo reception where I was told, no, other way. I tried to explain I had followed the signs but she was adamant I was wrong, it was the other way. (I later realised there is a cordoned off pool entrance - that is what I had been following signs for) So I followed signs the other way down endless corridors, doors etc. Yes, the sea water pool was OK but nothing to write home about. If you want to take a robe to the pool it is €6. If you want to use the minibar fridge for yourself it can be ”rented”! On checkout I was charged parking at €12/day before realising When I said we didn't park other than the first day she was adamant it was my fault for not telling them. Why would I when I hadn't been told the cost? Anyway, they refunded me in € cash - on my last day when I didn't need any more euros. Finally, wi-fi was poor. Definitley not a 4* experience and staff were unenthusiastic about everything. Except the cleaners who were friendly, even if they did knock the door to see if we really meant to not be disturbed, as per our door hanger!

This was our first sea side vacation in Slovenia. The hotel is part of Life Class Hotels network which includes several more expensive and several less expensive hotels. Guests of all of them share the SPA facilities. I rated this hotel stay as “Very Good” mainly for its value for money. Otherwise, it is average. Hotel: this is a 4 star hotel and, apart from the food, old towels and having to pay for old bath robes, it is probably the 4 star hotel. The room is spacious and comfortable, very clean, large balcony with a table and chairs. The hotel and surroundings are quiet, even though it is kind of in the middle of a resort town. Mattresses are on a softer side and pillows are not that comfortable but all in all ok. TV has several programs in English including CNN, BBC, National Geographic, cartoons etc. Towels and bath robes are very old and really need to be replaced at this stage. Plus you have to pay for bath robes (!) euro 6 per one bath robe. It’s handy to have one because you can go to the SPA dressed in it. SPA: is very good. There are several swimming pools, one of them is with thermal mineral water which we liked. Another one is with sea water and has one part outside. The pools are clean and pleasant. Can get very busy when the weather is not great but it was manageable. There are plenty of massage and other SPA options. I didn’t use any but they looked very nice and not too expensive. Kids club: there is one on the prémisses. It is run on the Medusa beach in good weather or inside of the Apollo hotel in not so good weather. Animators seemed nice but not too engaged. Also, they never asked for my room number or my phone number so I didn’t feel comfortable leaving the kids there without me being nearby for longer than 10 min. When the kids club is run on the beach, the beach is right next to the road. So it really is not an option to be used for child care and going off to the SPA. Kids enjoyed playing there though so I do recommend it. Beach: the hotel guests can use Medusa beach which is opposite the hotel (you need to cross the road to get there). Hotel guests pay Euro 18 for two loungers and one umbrella. It is expensive if you do this every day. The beach is nice and clean but it is rather busy and not that big. Sun loungers are on the grass, there is no sand there. You need to use the metal step ladder to get into water. There are small stones on the bottom in the water so worth getting beach / water shoes (Euro 15 in shops nearby). Otherwise, can be unpleasant, especially for kids. The water is probably around 1 meter deep when you get in so young kids won’t be able yo puddle in. Water seems clean but there are lots of boats nearby so you can see a bit of diesel in the water. There are showers on the beach and a nice cafe for lunch and drinks. Food: breakfast is limited but ok. The young lady Sara who is making omelettes is very nice and welcoming. Scrambled eggs however are really bad as if they were made

It seems that Hotel historian took over the hotel ville park. Without room condition and building, everything was good since we were able to use all facilities of Hotel Historian.Breakfast, swimming pool and private beach and so on.

Pros: * well situated * front desk and porters very helpful * great view from balcony Cons: * it is misleading to say this hotel has 2 x pools as only the indoor pool is onsite. The outdoor pool is at a separate sitter hotel! * it is misleading to say there is private parking available. The parking is offsite in a marina car park at the opposite end of town and you have to be ferried back and forth by porters if you need your car. You also have to pay 12 euros per day for the privilege! * it is misleading to say this hotel has a private beach. It is a public beach used by multiple hotels and again you have to pay for the privilege (albeit it is slightly discounted for hotel guests). * rooms were dated * buffet breakfast was super busy and disappointing
