Hotel Istra - Liburnia

Hotel Istra - Liburnia

10/10 Excellent
"A perfect stay in a very nice hotel that, warrants 5 stars. The view was amazing and we even got treated to a late night firework display literally outside our balcony. The only gripe was as I was on the main floor by reception, it did get a bit noisy but it wasn't that big of a deal for me because everything else made it worth it."

"We had an amazing time. Our room overlooked the pool and the historic downtown. I'm very picky on location, amenities, design and access to the sea. This one checked all the boxes. It's perfectly located on the promenade and a short walk to all the action downtown. Glad we picked this hotel and would definitely stay here again. Bravo 👏👏"

"We enjoyed our stay very much, very comfortable room, great location, the infinity pool and bar are awesome, friendly staff, convenient car parking and the buffet breakfast is fantastic. Only downside is our “park view” room was rather dim but didn’t worry that much as we were only in our room after dark mostly."

"I stayed here for business travel and it was a wonderful experience. The location is great because it is in the city center. Most things are within walking distance. The rooms are definitely on the smaller side, but I was able to make it work. The pool is small but the views from the rooftop bar was great as well. A slight warning: the hotel is tucked away and isn't really visible from the street. We had to circle back before we found where it was, but after that, there was no issue. The breakfast was the best I've had at any hotel. Lots of options and everything was very fresh. Mario, the waiter was really friendly and attentive and made sure we always had what we needed. The coffee was also really good. Aida at the front desk was wonderful as well. She gave us many recommendations on places to visit, and also gave us opinions/more details on places that we picked ourselves. She also told us about a famous pizza place where she had the best pizza ever. We were unfortunately unable to go there as we didn't have time, but it's nice having recommendations that we would have otherwise not even found. Would absolutely consider staying here again."
