Loved this hotel! A boutique hotel in the heart of the Kotor old town. The facilities were 10/10 and the staff were helpful whenever we had a question. The room and the bathroom were spacious with all the amenities we could need. The breakfast every morning was great and the restaurant on the roof had and incredible view and even better food.

A lovely hotel in a renovated old house in the center of Kotor. Tastefully done in a modern style that blends well with the surroundings. Room spacious and well-appointed.
Staff is efficient and warm and welcoming.
Do not miss dinner on the rooftop terrace.

One of the male receptionist was really made our stay uncomfortable. When we ask some information we got wrong info. Everytime we talk to him he made us feel we are unwelcome. Other than this one person other staff in hotel helped us a lot.

Great hotel in beautiful Kotor
We loved our stay at the Hippocampus. All of the staff we met were really friendly and welcoming. The room was large and comfortable and breakfast was good (although a little more variety would have been welcome). The hotel is in the heart of the old town making it perfect for exploring beautiful Kotor - but it does mean it is noisy at night being next to a bar - the only downside in an otherwise amazing stay.

Night club next door
The hotel is located in the heart of Kotor, which is great except…there is a night club next door. Loud music would be an understatement. The hotel provides ear plugs but they do nothing for a loud base. We asked for a refund for the second night to go elsewhere but they did not allow a refund and said we had received a message with a note on the location of the hotel and the noise, that was not the case. They did change our rooms to the quieter side, however the noise did not improve. Had we known about the noise we would not have booked this stay.

Beautiful hotel in the heart of the old town
If I could give the hotel 10 stars, I would. It was a beautiful boutique hotel right in the heart of the old town. The room was quirky and just beautiful. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Probably one of the best that I have stayed at.

Beautiful place! Very clean and very unique. The location is great! It’s close to everything (shopping, hiking, sightseeing, food market, beach. The club next to the hotel was too noisy every night until midnight. If you like to party you would like that.

An excellent breakfast served by attentive staff was served daily, but the property seemed a little run down. The location of the property was centered in Old Town so it was convenient to activities, but the partying went on all night making sleep difficult.

Great stay, would definitely stay again. One comment though, our room was directly above a very lively space below, which had loud music deep into the night. Didn't bother us to much, but could be an issue to some.

Great hotel but in the noisy neighbourhood
Nice hotel in the middle of Kotor's old town. Very helpful staff (got a lot of good tips and upgraded to a nicer room). Tasty local breakfast. Unfortunately the hotel is located in the very noisy area, a lot of night clubs and pubs located just outside the hotel so it is noisy during the night (until 1am or even longer). The hotel provided us earplugs so after the first bad night, other nights were more comfy.

Hotel and staff were great, but unfortunately a pub is located directly outside the hotel and plays loud music until the early hours. There is also a second outside club bar to the rear of the property, which also plays music to the early hours. The hotel staff were great and gave us ear plugs, which was great, but not really what we were expecting.
