Hotels near Treasures of Slovenia Portoroz, Municipality of Piran

Breakfast is very rich, the sea view is also very good, and the staff is welcoming. The restaurants nearby are good.

This was our first sea side vacation in Slovenia. The hotel is part of Life Class Hotels network which includes several more expensive and several less expensive hotels. Guests of all of them share the SPA facilities. I rated this hotel stay as “Very Good” mainly for its value for money. Otherwise, it is average. Hotel: this is a 4 star hotel and, apart from the food, old towels and having to pay for old bath robes, it is probably the 4 star hotel. The room is spacious and comfortable, very clean, large balcony with a table and chairs. The hotel and surroundings are quiet, even though it is kind of in the middle of a resort town. Mattresses are on a softer side and pillows are not that comfortable but all in all ok. TV has several programs in English including CNN, BBC, National Geographic, cartoons etc. Towels and bath robes are very old and really need to be replaced at this stage. Plus you have to pay for bath robes (!) euro 6 per one bath robe. It’s handy to have one because you can go to the SPA dressed in it. SPA: is very good. There are several swimming pools, one of them is with thermal mineral water which we liked. Another one is with sea water and has one part outside. The pools are clean and pleasant. Can get very busy when the weather is not great but it was manageable. There are plenty of massage and other SPA options. I didn’t use any but they looked very nice and not too expensive. Kids club: there is one on the prémisses. It is run on the Medusa beach in good weather or inside of the Apollo hotel in not so good weather. Animators seemed nice but not too engaged. Also, they never asked for my room number or my phone number so I didn’t feel comfortable leaving the kids there without me being nearby for longer than 10 min. When the kids club is run on the beach, the beach is right next to the road. So it really is not an option to be used for child care and going off to the SPA. Kids enjoyed playing there though so I do recommend it. Beach: the hotel guests can use Medusa beach which is opposite the hotel (you need to cross the road to get there). Hotel guests pay Euro 18 for two loungers and one umbrella. It is expensive if you do this every day. The beach is nice and clean but it is rather busy and not that big. Sun loungers are on the grass, there is no sand there. You need to use the metal step ladder to get into water. There are small stones on the bottom in the water so worth getting beach / water shoes (Euro 15 in shops nearby). Otherwise, can be unpleasant, especially for kids. The water is probably around 1 meter deep when you get in so young kids won’t be able yo puddle in. Water seems clean but there are lots of boats nearby so you can see a bit of diesel in the water. There are showers on the beach and a nice cafe for lunch and drinks. Food: breakfast is limited but ok. The young lady Sara who is making omelettes is very nice and welcoming. Scrambled eggs however are really bad as if they were made

Everything was perfect, the staff was nice and friendly. Wide range of dishes. Highly recommended. A slight drawback is parking - it is available either on the street for a fee (at the hotel for a higher price) or in a parking lot that is slightly further away for a lower price. The hotel also offers parking in the building next door, but without their pass for a higher price. However, the hotel staff was very helpful in directing us to a parking lot nearby. Thank you all for beautiful holiday!

The hotel is located right on the beach (well, what goes as ‘beach’ here – basically a concrete deck up to the sea), with all rooms having a sea view. It is still within easy reach of the centre of Piran, reached by a path along the coast. As you reach the hotel, you will find that parking is a real issue – there are not enough parking lots for all 50+ rooms, and the area is popular for going to the beach; the public parking lots charge 15 € per day, are at least 100 m away, and fill up as well. The reception is friendly and efficient. Once you are checked in, you walk through the breakfast room and up a ramp to a single, small, old elevator that takes you up to the rooms in the main building; it doesn’t inspire much confidence, so most guests only use it to bring their luggage to / from the rooms – it’s only three storeys max… While some rooms (those with numbers ending with x06 to x09) face the lake and the coastline of Piran, the rest is built to face more towards the sea; that makes little difference in terms of the views, but keeps the sun out more. The rooms are small for two people, in particular the wardrobe – it looks like it is rather made for a stay of a few days than for a week or two. There is a little fridge / minibar; the WiFi works. The bathrooms are very small (except for the shower), with no place to put toiletries (well, on the cistern of the toilet…) – two people will struggle to use it at the same time. There is a hair dryer with US sockets. The beds are good, but only have a single pillow type. There are opaque curtains to keep the daylight out; while they leave light through at the sides and the top, they do a reasonable job. It is very quiet at night (unless the other hotel guests aren’t…), so all set for a good night’s sleep. A simple but reasonable breakfast buffet is included in the room charge, with seating inside and on a terrace facing the beach and the sea. During the day and in the evenings, reasonable food can be had at the restaurant; the service is efficient (no long waiting times).

The hotel is located on a small harbor on the Adriatic coast. The environment is very good. There is also a 13th century church ruin next to it. It is not too far to walk to the old town of Piran from the hotel. If you don't want to walk, you can take a free shuttle bus. The station is about ten minutes away from the hotel. There is basically a bus every quarter of an hour. The hotel has ample parking space and is self-driving friendly. The hotel restaurant is large and has many guests. The breakfast is rich in variety. The front desk service is warm and the room is clean.

Very friendly staff, the pool and the beach are very well maintained. The location of the hotel is between Piran and Portorož and there are many quiet and nice restaurants for evening outings. The rooms are clean and the beds are very comfortable. The terrace offers a beautiful view of the sea and a magnificent sunset.

Why this hotel has 5 stars again? Very disappointed at our arrival, the hotel is far from being modernised. All around there are old red carpets with some (i hope) coffee stains or something like that which 5 stars hotel should not have! The furniture in the room is outdated, especially bathroom (the picture is very different than on booking site). There is no lotion which 3 stars hotel have. The balcony was dirty with leaves and cobwebs. Our bed was 2 single beds connected into one and it was really unfortable sleeping on this (even thought the side said the opposite). Also the minibar or fridge is empty and the tv is probably a little bit bigger than my laptop. After a long day and bad weather me and my partner decided to go to the spa/pool. What a scam! The pool was full with people and children jumping around and only 5 beds to relax or even put your coat on? the pool is soo small that i dont know maybe max. 10 people can move in it? We dont want to be squeezed in (Also there is no jacuzzi? )so we decided to go to the spa. Here comes the bigger scam. We asked a lady if we can go in the spa and she said that all places for the spa are already taken and the next free place is next day after 10am (time for check out). We cannot use the spa (or a pool) becuase we had the checkout the next day. They have a rule that in the spa you can only be for one hour but on not really my suprise people stayed there for 3h+ because ofcourse noboday would kicked them out. Anyway I dont even know why we book that hotel were we cannot go in the pool our use spa. SCAM. Not to mention that the hotel has 400* rooms so the logic behind the size of the pool in really poor. The biggest scam of our mini stay was food. We chose 4 or more stars hotel especially beacuse of the food. The food was DISGUSTING. There are no mini boards with name of the dish so you dont really know what the hell you are eating. The food was belowe the avrage in terms of quality. Also the food dissapeared so fast beacuse of football teenage players (there were 2 teams or) and imaginate that you SHOULD WAIT MORE THAN 30min IN THE 5 stars hotel to make (they didnt even made it btw) a dish that is missing and promised. Really small choice of food left (we came early on the dinner just beacuse of that) Anyway I wanted to eat the chicken breast salami (idk if it was a turkey because there is no label to know what the f*** is this meat) and when I looked at it it was yellow (i dont even wanna know how old was this salami). The fruit was so old that kiwi was dry and some of bananas were brown/black. For dessert you can only have 3 options and one of them is the old friut in the glass (again why is this 5 stars hotel???) Also the tables and chairs around us was so outdated and tables were not cleans (full of crumbs ew). The breakfast is nothing special, they dont have 1,5% milk or lower (there are no labels again). Also for the omellete you should wait around 15 minutes because there is just one guy

Having been a fan of the San Servolo beer, when I saw this property it was a no brainer for me for our stay in Istra. And the resort really lives up to the high standard set by their excellent beers! The mobile home we stayed in was very nicely decorated and designed, and comfortably fit our family and our daughter's travel cot. The mobile home had its own jacuzzi which we very much enjoyed - a great way to relax after a day exploring the beauties of the Istrian peninsula. The pool at the resort was gorgeous (although too cold for my liking) and the pizzeria lived up to its billing as one of the best pizzerias in Istria. The breakfast didn't have the broadest selection of items, but everything on offer was of the highest order. The resort also had good kids facilities with a lovely playground area and all the room for our daughter to run around. The staff were also very friendly and helpful, so really everything about the resort was of excellent quality.

We were visiting the Slovenian Coast for 5 Nights as a couple with a dog. We opted for a hotel in a more quiet location compared with portoroz - Izola etc.... What a great choice! Firstly, the hotel is beautiful renovated and looks like a new place. All is well and feels new - from the Restaurant, Lobby and the Rooms! (and awesome Salt chambers..) We chose a double room with balcony, which in those hot days were great for the early mornings or later evenings! (plus a big help in drying beach towels and clothes!) The room was nice, safe and mini bar fridge all available. Good shower - and for outdoor 38 degrees heat a perfectly working Air Con!! That's a real bonus! The Food (Breakfast was an enough wide selection) and the Dinner (mixed à la carte & sushi) must be stated was amazingly nice cooked, real top quality chef! if you like to dine out or eat in the evenings out just a 10-minute walk is the Ancaran Townsquare with a handful of nice Bars, Italian, Local Speciality Restaurant and so on. ＞All one needs! But the best ist still straight down from the hotel, the small bar on the beach! - So! - most over all I like to mention the feeling being a few days away from home in this place made us really relaxed and the best of the hotel is the people who work there!! - from the welcome reception team to the bar & restaurant staff and the housekeepers - all were at every time friendly and engaged! Overall, the Owner or Manager of this Hotel should be happy to have exactly this team working there now! They are awesome people with a good sense of hospitality! I would try to keep them! From the hotel you can walk in 3-5 minutes to a nice calm, quiet beach with another nice Restaurant and Bar (directly overlooking the Bay of Ancaran, Koper and so on) which was a lovely scenery!). The water was crystal clean and perfect temperature, and each time coming back to the hotel felt simply nice. Having travelled over 100s of times and stayed in 2-5 star hotels all over - this is definitely a place to go back. You just have to know what you are looking for and what kind of entertainment one wants. If you choose wisely, and you look for a bit more quiet place and not overloaded with people - and good drinks, food etc... than this is your destination! Thank you Team Ortus for the great stay. See you again.
