Hotel Palata Venezia

At first sight this hotel is absolutely stunning with amazing views of the beach sea and town . It has some amazing character and this reflects the stunning views . My friend and I arrived on a Saturday evening, it was late and the taxi driver wasn't sure how to get us to the door of the hotel ..we eventually had to walk up a very steep hill with our cases and found the entrance ourselves. ( we found out later that a golf buggy is available to help with this . The lady who checked us in wasn't the most helpful .infact the whole reception team were not helpful at all .I asked for help as one of our bedroom windows would not open ..no one came to sort this. We asked for directions to the town and were given incorrect information and never with a smile , the young girl was very moody . The restaurant and breakfast staff were amazing and so happy and friendly..breakfast was ok .a little variation would be good . We sat around the pool a lot for the first few days. But one morning we went down and the pool water was green ..we saw staff walking past it and nothing was done .it did not smell good and was most probably a health hazard. This hotel could have a lot to offer..it needs lots of TLC, and a strong, happy and helpful reception staff. Also the sun loungers were falling apart and there was only 4 there to use !! This hotel would have to improve so much for my friend and I to return..until then I won't be returning.

This hotel’s best feature by far is its stunning location, but that does little to compensate for everything else. We had. 2 bed apartment that felt quite dated. The only aircon unit was in the living area, the furthest it could be from the bedrooms and given it was nearly 40c, this felt like a bad design. While we didn't plan to self-cater, it would have been quite tricky given that the kitchen contained no plates, nothing to cook with, just a handful of cutlery. The bathroom was small and also felt dated. The breakfast was really poor. The hot choices were pretty poor quality (watery scrambled eggs, etc.) while the cereals consisted of 3 ultra-processed chocolate sugary choices, and the museli was a bowl of dry, uncooked oats with a couple of raisins in it - yuck! There was fruit but nothing looked fresh. The worst thing by far was the noise. The hotel is positioned above the nightclubs, which meant that on both nights, it was impossible to sleep until the music stopped at 1am. Our room was probably in the worst possible location, being right on the edge, but there was no escaping how loud it was. I asked reception for earplugs, but they didn't have any. If we hadn't been at the end of our holiday, we would have left after 1 night and gone elsewhere. We didn't venture to the beach because honestly, it just looked awful! Literally, every inch of sand was covered by a parasol or lounger, this is not our idea of a nice beach. Thankfully, the hotel's pool, although small, never got that busy, so after exploring the old town, which, to be honest, didn't take long at all, we just relaxed by the pool. The only good thing was the staff. Everyone, apart from the lady who checked us in and didn’t show us where the pool was, was really friendly and helpful. The transport up the hill with our luggage on the golf buggy was fun and in the heat, a saviour!

I stayed here with a friend for a week. The family run hotel is beautiful, location stunning over looking the Adriatic, staff amazing! The food was good and who knew Montenegro did such good wine! We had such a good week. We were looked after well not just in the hotel but all the restaurants both in the old and new towns. The people in Ulcinj were fun and attentive, you just wanted to spend more time with everyone. We went in May and it should be noted this is before their busy summer holiday period. Some bars were not yet open. But there are plenty of restaurants. A trip to the old town is definitely worth a visit, but not for the less mobile. The hotel was a bit of a hike, but well worth it. Special shout to Chism, Martaeo and Esad (apologies if spelling not correct) you all made our stay so memorable. I just want to smile

We had a wonderful weeks holiday at the hotel Palata Venezia. It was the first time we had visited Montenegro (Ulcinj ) and we will definitely return . We were collected from Tivat airport and this was arranged by the hotel .From the moment we arrived at the hotel we were made to feel very welcome .All of the staff were so helpful. We had a large room with a huge shared terrace .The setting and view for breakfast was amazing . The atmosphere in the hotel was welcoming and friendly and we felt part of the hotel family . English was spoken by most of the staff and management and we experienced no language barriers. Nothing was too much for them to arrange.
