Guest Reviews
- maria lourdes marilou (10/5): Villa Ivana will always be my choice in Kotor. - I was not wrong on choosing Villa Ivana on my trip to Kotor. Location and comfort of a n8ce bed, clean and elegant room is a big plus.
- Laura (10/5): Stunning views and food - Great location and view. Very friendly and helpful service. Beautiful sunsets and hikes up the mountain.
- Deanna (10/5): - We loved staying here. It’s right in and old town so it feels magical and peaceful. I would stay here again if I return to Kotor. Lovely staff and room.
- Karla (10/5): Great location - Fabulous place! The rooms are spacious, the terraces are lovely and relaxing. The location is the best! It’s the first hotel as you enter the city walls coming from the bus station - so only about a 5 minute walk. Friendly service and I would recommend!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Quite simply one of the best places I have stayed at - and I am a frequent traveller. The staff were outstanding and location is excellent. Wonderful apartment
- Lyndsay (10/5): Well located and very modern. - Excellent apartment, very well located at the southern entrance of the old town. Couldn’t ask for more.
- Samuel (10/5): Great people. Great property. Fantastic location. - Love the hotel and staff and location. Really amazing to be so close to it all and have Access to a deck/rest area on the city wall! They offer extra services to guests too. Arrangements etc. Just ask! Really friendly and great rooms. Two minor side notes: it is noisy near bar so bring earplugs if you need them, and it’s a pedestrianized city inside the walls so the listing mentions “parking” but should specify that is public street parking if available or paid lot €10 a night when I visited.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We had room 3 which was very nice, the maid service was very good
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great location, great service, great price - The managers were extremely helpful in helping us get oriented in the city, and the apartment itself was wonderful. There is free parking in several nearby lots that the managers can help with as well, and we never had difficulty finding a spot even at the height of tourist season. There was some noise from nearby bars, but it wasn't a problem in the bedroom. We had one power outlet that didn't seem to work, but this didn't create any issues for us as we just used another. All in all, it's a great villa in a great location with great service.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Uhmmm...Kotor is simply an amazing city...It’s unimaginable how the city originated between the wall and the mountains. Here within this space is Villa Ivana with all the city endowment. At Villa Ivana everything is a touch of life, starting with the welcoming staff. City was quiet busy also was the neighborhood, but then who cares as the breath of freshness of the city makes you feel hirray. I will surely visit again...Villa Ivana will see me again.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The staff are very friendly and make you feel very welcome here; they gave us great advice on where to eat and drink, as well as what to see on our visit to the town. The bedroom we stayed in was wonderful and we were thrilled with the view of the harbour from the terrace. The property is conveniently located within the Old Town walls and is only a very short walking distance from some lovely bars and restaurants. I would recommend staying at Villa Ivana to anyone planning a trip to Kotor. Thanks for having us!
- Jared (10/5): Welcoming Apartment Hotel in Old Town Kotor - Beautiful apartment style hotel nestled inside the old town of Kotor, near the south gate. Several terraces within the property, with stunning views of the mountains and the bay. And the staff was nothing short of fantastic. This was hands down the best hotel during our trip across Montenegro and Croatia!
- christopher (8/5): - Great location right in the walled city, easy access to everything, very spacious accommodation. The kitchen was nicely outfitted so not only restaurant meals as the only option. Good place to stay.
- Jim (10/5): Good find - This place isn’t easy to find (ask for directions at the info kiosk outside the main gate of old Kotor), but you’ll be happy you did. My room turned out to be a spacious two bedroom suite, nicely kept up and furnished with a decent kitchen. It even has a washing machine (no dryer though), which was a godsend. Easy walk to lots of good restaurants and shops. There is free parking in a lot just outside the town gate but it can be tough getting a spot. The manager also runs the hits shop next door, but she was very helpful, and linens were changed daily. It’s somewhat noisy in the evening from the restaurant next door but they close at 11 - otherwise it’s a pretty quiet corner of the old city.
- john (8/5): Great place, bad internet - Very comfortable with pleasant staff. Their internet completely sucked and that is the only problem. B
- Verified traveler (4/5): Dissappointed - Disappointing room compared to internet. Very cramped. They were unable to give us the room we booked because they " had no key". No hint of an apology. Alternative was tiny room and tiny bathroom with noisy bar opposite. Location was great and bed comfortable. But left with bad feeling.
- helena (6/5): Comfortable Bed but Noisy surroundings. - The only complaint we have is the noise heard from the local bar where loud music is played until 1am. The music is so loud it actually feels like it is in the room. People talking below in the street can also be heard quite clearly from the room. Disappointing since I had requested a quiet room which was Obviously ignored. We noticed the TV is not geared towards people from UK or Australia. I would I would only recommend it to a friend if Ivana guaranteed no disturbance from the local bar until the early hours. There are several rooms/apartments so perhaps she has quiet rooms?
- Verified traveler (10/5): Highly recommended - Villa Ivana is the perfect stay in Kotor, set inside the old town walls in a very quiet corner of town, with great views from the breakfast terrace. Friendly and helpful staff. A very well equipped and comfortable mini-apartment. The only downside I can think of is the complicated situation of parking - there are no dedicated spaces offered at the hotel as no cars are allowed inside the old town walls. The car park in front of old town has spaces but is not cheap. Otherwise though a perfect stay!
- Clare (8/5): In the middle of the old town - This is a great location right in the middle of the old town. There are plenty of places to eat and it close to the walk up to the fortress. Free parking is approx. five mins walk away in a public area. You might have to wait a while for someone to leave. The room had a small kitchen area where you can make tea and do basic cooking. The bed was comfortable. Because you are in an old building in a walled town the room was a bit dark although you do have access to a seating area along the city walls where you can enjoy the sunset.
- Rebecca (8/5): Nice location and comfortable accommodation - Fantastic location and very good value. Room was generally comfortable but a bit on the small side. Not enough hot water in the shower for 2 people, even with really quick showers, which was a bit annoying. Check in and check out procedure was a bit confusing - there's no reception desk and although the owner lives on site she doesn't speak any English, though she has people helping her out who do, and generally everyone was very friendly.
- chery (10/5): - It was a perfect soot just indide the old cuty The iwners are friendly and very helpful The city is lime stepoing bsck in time I will return chery williamson
- Victoria (10/5): Excellent! - Great place to stay when you visit Medugorje. The service was great, I booked the room the evening I stayed and the room was very clean and in great condition. If I visit Medugorje again, I'll definitely stay there again.
- Birgitta (4/5): - The room that was offered did not by any means correspond to the photo that was shown on the internet. It must have been Another hotel. I was very dissapointed!
- Ian (10/5): Best apartment we've stayed in - Welcoming, immaculate and beautifully furnished
- ken (6/5): Good location but maybe too close - My reservation was not there but they gave me a major up grade room. The problem was that I did not no how to use some of the things in the room like the satellite or heater and there is no reception area to just ask. If you don't want to sleep before 11pm (loud music outside) then no problem at all with this place.
- Verified traveler (4/5): No hot shower... - No hot shower, poor internet connection...but good location.
- marina (8/5): So central to Gorgeous old town! - Villa ivana has only 4 or 5 rooms, which share two lovely terraces. The smallish room we had was on the first level, and it had one small window. Other than it could have used more light, it was lovely, but the real win is being right inside the old town which is convenient. The host directed us to nearby free parking. She also did a load of laundry for us, gratis.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good position - Close to bus depot. Inside Old City. Very central. Because the window didn't shut properly it was noisy until late in the evening when the locals went to bed. Locals speak very loudly. Room had two double beds so there was somewhere to put cases but would be very crowded with more than 2 people. Need bedside tables and block out curtains. Modern shower was very good. Very hot water. Kitchenette on landing was good for boiling water and making a meal. Able to leave luggage until we caught the evening bus. Very friendly and helpful owner.
- Leo D (10/5): Charming Apartment in the Heart of the City - Beautiful apartment with everything we needed. Ivana was friendly, courteous and helpful. We were extremely pleased with our stay and would happily recommend it.
- Boris (10/5): Nice stay - I actually did not stay there- something happened with my reservation. But the owner was so kind to find us a room in the four star hotel near the main gate of the fortress in Kotor, because the the villa is located inside the old town. And the owner cover the difference in the price. So the owner safe face with this action, and we been completely satisfied from the hotel.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great hotel, great location, great value! - Very nice apartment within the old city walls. Check in was easy, and the family running the apartment was friendly. The room came with AC and a little kitchen for our own use. We were in Croatia for two weeks prior to going to Montenegro, and this apartment was nicer (and cheaper) than any place we stayed in Croatia.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I would recommend this villa in a heart bit. Located in the middle of the main scene of the old city, it provides you full privacy when you are inside. It has a small kitchen with a fridge and a stove. It's a plus if you enjoy cooking. You may take your dinner and have it on the roof enjoying the lights and sounds of the old city and the privacy of your company. You may ask the stuff to do your laundry. The room is cleaned daily, the sheets are nice and crisp. Overall Very pleasant stay.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Best nights sleep we had in three months - The beds are incredible - right down to beautiful sheets it was just like home. We had apartment 3 and it was fabulous. If you are heading to Kotor and want to stay in the Old town it would be a good choice.
- Kate (10/5): Amazing Service - We turned up at hotel Ivana and the guests the night before us had broken a window so we didn't have a room. In advance Ivana had organised for us to stay at a beautiful hotel around the corner and paid the difference in price. Amazing service and wouldn't hesitate to go back. Thanks!
- Leighton (10/5): Lovely host, awesome location, beautiful rooms - Ivana, the hosted, was so lovely, friendly and helpful. The location is inside the Old Town but right near the exits to get to a supermarket and bus station easily. Definitely a recommendable place to stay.
- Wayne (8/5): Kotor stop-over - There were two rooms, one with a queen, one with two singles and a modern bathroom with a newish washing machine. Both rooms had AC that worked well. The wifi worked well. It's located within stari grad but far enough away from all the noise that you shouldn't hear anything at night. It isn't far from the castle wall climb entrance either. I'd go in the evening or early morning.
- Xiaodong (10/5): Excellent stay at Ivana! - I love this apartment hotel. It is located in the corner of the old town. It is very convenient to the bus station, supermarket, the fortress and, of course, the old town. It is very clean and stylish apartment. I was single there, and I booked a queen bed room. It is good for a couple. It has a kitchen and refrigerator in the room and even it has pan, plates, cups, knives and forks. So, if you have a longer stay and want to cook some food, you could! I did not cook but I bought some fruits and milk from the supermarket which is 5 minutes away from the hotel. The terrace of the hotel is also very fascinating and you will enjoy the view.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Old Town - Perfect location inside the Old Town walls. Room was clean and comfy!
- Nicola (8/5): Take a rest in the beauty! - Good location in the old town, close to many attractive places
- Barbara (8/5): Best possible location in Kotor - Two day visit during 10 days on Dalmation coast. The villa is the first place to stay upon entering the walled old town from a short walk from bus station. The daughter, who speaks excellent English, welcomed us and gave us some recommendations. The home is multilevel, and although we had only reserved one room, we were given an entire apt with kitchen, bath and two bedrooms. The kitchen was quite noisy from a bar across the street, but the sound did not carry at all when the kitchen door was closed, and gave a more authentic experience anyway. The terrace is wonderful, and you do not have to go through anyone's home as an other poster suggested. We even used the washer and then hung up our clothes on the line on the terrace while overlooking all the yachts - a very different experience! We were very comfortable and had no complaints at all. Welcoming host, comfortable bed, good shower with plenty of hot water, and good a/c. I highly recommend staying here.
- Gladys (6/5): Excellent location for visit old town. - Perfect location and everything within walking distance. The staff we spoke to didn't speak much English but were very kind and friendly.
- Neil (10/5): Great town, great value, great apartment - Great hotel and great value for money. Perfect for a bit of self catering though not for full scale cooking. You need to find a bigger apartment if thats what you want. The roof terrace was separate from the apartment but that was no big deal, and the views were spectacular. A noisy bar nearby till after midnight made sleeping in one of the bedrooms difficult but this can be a problem anywhere in the old town of Kotor with late night beat music. It would not stop me re-booking.
- Rose (8/5): great location - Fantastic location within the walls of the old city. Nice managers who suggested activities for our three day stay. Our apartment had an unusual layout, having to go through one of the bedrooms to reach the kitchen, but it was fine for just the two of us. We could hear word for word the conversation of the people in the adjoining room. The bed was too big for the room, without enough space to get out on each side. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
- rory (8/5): magic of Montenegro - lovely place lovely people. as yet not a huge ammount of staying uk visitors Cruise ship stop overs give a boost, but not like people staying eating and drinking with the locals and as a result we were given a great time
- cathy (8/5): Terrace on the Wall - I wish we have planned to stay two nights! loved the location. it was right on the city wall! Not only did it offer a great view, but also convenience of zipping around to the other side of town while avoiding the tour groups. the room was big and comfortable and the kitchen was in a cute courtyard.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent on every aspects - The hotel was situated inside the old town. The rooms are clean and spacious and we even got a washing machine and a fully equipped kitchen. The staff was very nice. Our room overlooks the street downstairs, but as there is a bar nearby, it may get noisy at night (solved by shutting the door and windows and open the air-con). The hotel got a great balcony on the old town wall where we hanged our clothes to dry. The only downside was that we discovered a mouse in the kitchen but I guess it was inevitable given that there are restaurants and bars nearby.
- kpetritz (10/5): Great people, great place, great location - Though this is not your average 5 star accommodation I would rate it as such because the level of service we experienced was fantastic, the rooms we stayed in were clean and the location in old town was fantastic. One of the rooms was a little bit noisy however that was a saturday night and the noise moved inside after 10pm. Montenegro was a beautiful gem so enjoy and respect the area.
- Foley (10/5): Kotor good location - I think the best place to stay in kotor. We stayed for 2 nights . Great host . That offered us a free up grade . Free parking across the road . Ask host. Outside konoba Galerija grill fish & meat restaurant. Free parking, ask restaurant. And the best place to eat. Fresh & price. The other restaurant further down over rated. Also recommend to do the walk up the mountain. Great views . 3 euro. Lovely & friendly people in Kotor.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great location - Hard to find but well worth it. Located in the walled in, cobble stoned streets of Old Town Kotor, this hidden gem was one of the highlights of our trip through the Balkans. The closest you will feel to a castle stay experience. The shops, bars, restraunts and people are amazing and the kindness of the hotel staff was humbling.
- John S. (4/5): Good location, not exactly as advertised - First review! So, this place is in a good location right in Old Town (which is really small so basically anything in the old town is a good location). A few minor quibbles: the terrace is not attached to the rooms and is the part of 'Villa Ivana' where Ivana lives. It's totally fine to go over there but we felt we were sort of invading her space (and in order to get to it you need to exit your building, walk out, use another key to enter her 'home' then walk up to the terrace). Also, Villa Ivana follows this strange European custom of taking an ID card or passport at check-in. Ordinarily, this is not a problem but there is no reception or check-in and Ivana speaks zero english so in our haste in the morning we paid her for the room but forgot the card (and she obviously forgot to give it back). Also there was almost no hot water. My girlfriend took a very short shower (as we are used to hotels seemingly never having good hot water) and the hot water ran out within two minutes. I waited over an hour as we watched a tv show, went to take a shower and there was not one drop of hot water so I took a freezing cold shower. Pretty ridiculous. Other than that, it was clean and in the old town, so that's positive.
