The hotel is situated in a very quiet area 3km from Pula, accessible by car or bike (it is not possible to walk from Pula due to the type of roads). Owing to the location, the atmosphere is incredibly peaceful and the hotel itself is calm, tastefully decorated and feels 'boutique'. Pula itself is a great place to visit! We saved quite a lot of money so we could pay for the most expensive room with a small private pool to make the experience really special. We felt the room was beautifully furnished and the pool was an exciting extra - we had sole use of it, however it wasn't completely private as another room overlooked it directly, which was a little disappointing. Paying the price we did, it felt a little grating to have to pay for room extras e.g. minibar contents, particularly as the water from the taps was always warm and so was unpleasant to drink. A few little details could be improved to make the experience really special. For example, the shower had no light inside , which meant we had to shower in semi-darkness, which was not ideal. It also lacked ventilation, so we had to prop the door open using the bathroom bin every day to stop it smelling dank as it did when we first arrived. We stress this wasn't because it wasn't clean, and just an issue with ventilation. The room was very clean overall! Additionally, only one socket in the room took a standard EU adaptor, which for guests from outside the EU is a little frustrating. Finally, the lights on the air conditioning and WiFi router were very distracting at night and we had to block them with an assortment of pillows. On the flip side, The breakfast spread is extravagant and the pastries were delightful! Additionally, we were very grateful to the professional, friendly and multilingual staff who were always very happy to help us out. We discovered that the hotel has plans to develop over the next year and are confident that with a few tweaks it can become a truly superb place to visit!

This was our last stop before returning from a trip that included 3-1/2 weeks in Sardinia.in all that time we encountered only one couple of tourists like us, from the US. We stayed here three nights. We loved its design as a Roman country villa. Our room was large with a high ceiling and king bed very comfortable. The WI-FI was weak.. The included breakfast was plentiful but not well supervised as the eggs and sausages were allowed to get cold. The milk left out for cereals was sour. This steered me away from having other meals in the restaurant.The personnel at the desk and the cleaning staff were extremely helpful and friendly as was the porter who helped with our travel bags. Adequate parking in an adjacent lot. A locked entry gate provides a feeling of security although guests must sometimes have to wait a short time for the gate to be opened by the desk clerk. Rooms are serviced daily. The pool is not heated so that it was not useable even on a warm day in April. We found it peaceful and quiet at all times though sometimes the resident doves made a racket. Reasonably priced. We would stay here again.
