Reviews
The room is very big, including a kitchen and a balcony. The room is super clean, design is up to date and the bathroom is new. I do wish they would offer different soaps for body vs. shampoo and conditioner, but this is the most ridiculous comment I have ever had on a hotel.
Breakfast was worth it - fresh veggies, eggs, nuts, granola, pastries and fruit. From what it looked when we were looking for an hotel in Montenegro, it's more than average.
They have a lots of parking soace, a groceries store near the hotel, based right near the beach and it's 15 mins walk from the old town.
They have a small gym and a swimming pool which we didn't try because it was cold.
We will definitely come back on our next stay. Thank you Admiral hotel team!
Breakfast was perfect, nicely presented and delicious. The staff are friendly and helpful. The beach is just a 5–10 minute walk away, and the Old Town is also close.
The pool area is cosy and pleasant, and you can even take the towels to the beach (just let the reception know first). One thing to keep in mind: there’s no elevator in the building.
For about 10 hours there was no hot water in the hotel. After coming back from the sea and the pool, we couldn’t shower and had to stay like that for dinner and going out. The showers only had freezing water, and when we approached the staff we were told this was a recurring problem throughout the hotel, and that the technician could only come the next morning. Only thanks to a very kind employee, who personally went to the boiler and fixed it himself, the problem was eventually solved.
The next morning we approached the reception expecting at least some acknowledgment, but instead experienced terrible service: the manager denied the issue completely, accused us of lying, and spoke in a rude and dismissive way. This was one of the worst customer service experiences I’ve ever had in a hotel. The staff members were nice, but the manager’s attitude was simply unacceptable.
Other things to note:
• No elevator in the hotel, and this is not mentioned anywhere.
• The room was very small, even though we booked a “Superior” (supposedly the largest).
• Noise is heard clearly in the rooms.
Bottom line – I do not recommend this hotel at all.
Staff were very helpful. We asked them to arrange airport shuttle for arrival and departure.
Breakfast options could be more. Only pork was available. There could be beef.
Because of constructions they did not ask a money for a parking, which was big saving. Also the staff was super friendly and helpful. I may rate this maybe the best hotel service I've ever had.
Also there was very reasonable and clean gym. One cardio machine would have been nice, but it is small detail: you can run outside.
Overall: if you are looking for a place to just spend the night and relax a bit from tripping around a day - perfect! But it is not a place to have so called hotel-pool-vacation. Actually I would not reccomend that at all in Montenegro, because there are A LOT of places to see and visit.
First, our pre-booked airport transfer was an issue. We couldn't find the driver at the airport because he wasn't holding a sign. He later showed up at the hotel, and I recognized him, but we had already taken a taxi. The hotel then tried to charge us, leading to a long, stressful negotiation about the amount of payment for 4 days.
Breakfast initially was bad – mostly oily pies, no veggies or eggs. When we complained and asked for a refund, the manager just told us not to come to breakfast.
A big concern was maids going through our belongings. They moved our items, and even threw away my perfume. When we told the staff, they basically said it wasn't their problem. We also found dirty cleaning rags on our toothbrushes and trash bags left in our room.
Overall, despite a decent room, the poor service and lack of privacy made our stay unpleasant.
We checked out early from our 1 week stay here due to horrific injuries incurred from a shower screen exploding mid-shower resulting in multiple lacerations.
Staff were dismissive and took no responsibility for the poor state of the hotel. Extremely negligent and lacked any duty of care.
The pool is out of operation despite advertising that the facilities were available on Booking.com.
This hotel is deceitful and misleading by nature as it is a 3 star hotel.
After a confrontational discussion with the manager, they reluctantly agreed to issue a refund after initially trying to charge us for “using their facilities” during our stay.
They are happy to lie and mislead customers to grab their money.
