This place definitely exceeded our expectations

This place definitely exceeded our expectations. The staff was very kind and helpful. The swimming pool is open until 10pm which is worth noting. We had a big apartament with seaview. The hotel is very close to the sea. Nice breakfast. The only thing to improve is WiFi which was very poor in the apartment.

価格を考慮すると大満足

リエカに用があったもののリエカのホテルが全体的に高く、少し離れていたものの手頃だったこのホテルに宿泊。 結論としては、価格を考慮すると大変満足しており、リエカに再度来る際はまたここに宿泊したい。 ガレージへの駐車は有料だが裏口の路地に泊まれば無料。 ホテル全体の雰囲気も良く、スタッフはフレンドリーで、部屋は生活で程よい広さだった。 ネックを挙げるとすれば、ドライヤーが使えなかった。部屋の空調が効かなかった（解決策はあったのかもしれないが、耐えられる程度だったのであえて問い合わせなかった）。併設のレストランが朝食のみで昼夕食が取れなかったこと（歩いて200mほどの場所にDominoというレストランがある）。 こうしてマイナスポイントを挙げていると良くないホテルのように思われるかもしれないが、個人的には満足しておりリピートしたいと思っている。

Very nice hotel close to beach

Stayed one night on a motorbike trip, and wish I could have stayed longer. Very friendly and helpful people. Very nice hotel, I enjoyed an excellent room with balcony looking towards the sea. Breakfast was excellent. Hotel is about 100-200m from waters edge. Lock up garage was appreciated for the security my motorbike.

Hotel is in the quiet town of Dramlj. It is a 30 minute walk into Crikvenica, which has the main Center and all the amenities. Staff is very helpful and friendly. I was disappointed when the nightly rate doubled when we checked in. I had booked as a single and the 2nd person doubled the nightly price. Good location for a quiet getaway.

Välskött litet hotell off-season

Mottagandet var så vänligt att man inte vet vart man ska ta vägen. Hela hotellet (familjehotell?) är mycket välskött och välstädat och det är en väldig ordning. Vi åt middag på hotellet och den var definitivt prisvärd, återigen med mycket vänligt bemötande. Det är nära ned till vattnet där man kan bada från typiska klippor/cementkonstruktioner. Det är en viss promenad in till Dramalj vilket inte kändes som så allvarligt då staden var tämligen öde en dag i början av oktober.

Vänlig personal och personliga rum

Jag och min flickvän bodde fyra nätter på Grand Hotel. Vårt intryck var att det var ett jättebra hotell! Personalen är mycket trevlig och det märks att de verkligen vill att man har det bra under sin vistelse på hotellet och i landet. Vi fick hjälp med att hyra bil och vad man kan göra i staden. De har också gratis cykeluthyrning. Rummet kändes stort och personligt. Det kändes mer som att vara hemma än på hotell. Frukosten var kanske lite liten, men väldigt god. Helhetsbetyget är full pott! Rekommenderas!
