Il personale è alla teception e ristorante meraviglioso, tutti si sono presi cura di noi, gentilissimi davvero e competenti. Purtroppo per andare sul lungo mare bisogna fare tanti scalini, altrimenti non c'è nulla intorno all'hotel. Anche il parcheggio è su una discesa ripida. La stanza molto comoda, asciugamani puliti ogni giorno ma il pavimento non è mai stato pulito in 4 giorni.

Rather Disappointing
Rather disappointing hotel at the end of touring Slovenia and Austria for two weeks. Breakfast was sadly poorly presented, stocked with cooked items bland and cold. Room was average and check out service left a lot to be desired- felt as if they couldn’t wait to show us the exit. Our experience is that there are far better hotels in Slovenia which offer better value for money.

Don’t book half board as evening meal awful.
Hardly any voice for vegetarians food eyes. Had booked half board but only ate their one night out of four! If anyone has limited mobility don’t book as steep hill to frontage. They also advertise sea front views - when it should really say partial. The key for our room didn’t work properly this resulted in several trips downstairs to get sorted - on last night they sent a maintenance man who said he had partially fixed it and that it would need changed the next day. Thankfully we were leaving

Es ist eine Hotel-Kette mit mehreren Hotels nebeneinander. Erstmal was ich super fand: Man darf kostenlos die Therme nutzen. Da gab es ein Salzwasserbecken und ein Chlorbecken und ein whirlpool. Die Zimmer waren sauber und hatten eine angemessene Größe. Außerdem hatte das Zimmer eine Klimaanlage, was echt gold wert ist, bei hohen Temperaturen. Das Frühstück war an sich sehr gut, nur hätt ich gern mal auch eine andere Auswahl gehabt. Es war leider jeden Tag das gleiche. ( Vielleicht stört das aber jemand anderes nicht. Das Meer ist nicht weit weg und wir haben mit dem Fahrrad auch Piran ein bisschen erkundet ( sehr witzige Stadt, mit vielen engen Gassen. An der Kirche ist eine wunderschöne Aussicht und an der Klippe kann man auch ins Meer gehen. ( Ich denke das ist ein FKK weil viele Leute nackt waren. Allgemein findet man schöne Flecke um ins Meer zu gehen. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind auch gleich in der Nähe. Was mich gestört hat war: Es hieß, dass das Hotel einen Parkplatz hat. Ja hat es, aber sehr weit weg mit shuttle und kostet extra oder eben einen öffentlichen Parkplatz der auch etwas kostet (18€ am Tag). Was ich auch noch nicht kannte, ist dass man für das nutzen eines Bademantels 6 €bezahlt. Sollte eig drin sein, wenn Wellnessbereich angeboten wird. Beim Check out haben wir leider keinen an der Rezeption finden können. Nur durchs Fragen eines Mitarbeiter beim Frühstück, konnten wir herausfinden, dass wir uns im Hotel daneben auschecken können.

Expensive and quite disappointing
This hotel is very expensive for what you get. 200€ per night for a normal room with balcony… 12 € per day just to work for one night.. the hotel has old 90’s style and vibe, with rooms and lobby as back in the days. The breakfast was the worst, chaotic. In general this is maybe better for a kids families.

Belle chambre, mais chere (170EUR la nuit) pour le service. Qui plus est, j'avais laissé un billet de 20EUR sur ma table de nuit après 11h où les femmes de chambre nous ont changé les serviettes mais elles sont revenues plus tard pour faire la chambre et le billet avait disparu.

군더더기 없는 깔끔한 곳이지만 성수기 금액을 주기엔 좀 아까웠음.
위치 좋아요. 버스 정류장에서 10분 내에 위치하고 있고 바닷가에서도 가까워요. 다만 길가는 아니고 계단 혹은 언덕을 통해 가파르고 짧은 거리를 올라 숨겨져 있습니다. 다른 라이프클래스 호텔들과 수영장 및 사우나를 공동으로 제공하며 부대시설이 아주 좋습니다. 대신 수영장까지 찾아가는 길이 조금 멀고 험합니다. 또한 어메니티가 따로 제공되지 않고 가운 역시 별도로 금액을 지불해야합니다. 조식 일반적인 호텔조식과 동일하게 제공됩니다.

Last Minute
Bei den Zimmern zur Bergseite, wurden wir des öfteren um 0600 Uhr - 0700 Uhr von den Zuliefer Kleintransportern die die Küche belieferten geweckt. (Autotür, Rückfahrwarnung,...). Wir haben dann reklamiert und es wurde uns ohne Umstände ein Zimmer im 6. Stock mit Meerblick ohne Aufpreis zugeteilt. Es war wunderschön, jedoch die Musik vom Strand her bis spät in die Nacht und laut. Das Frühstück ist Mittelmass.
