Podgorica Homestays

We were very disappointed with this Hotel. The rooms smell like smoke despite it being a non smoking hotel. I am not sure if this is due to the cigar bar in the hotel, if people are smoking despite the rules, or if this was once a smoking hotel and perhaps has only been partially updated, meaning the smoke is in the carpets, etc. The rooms have brown carpet and thick heavy drapes. I am allergic to smoke and spent the evening sick. I informed the front desk and they said they couldn’t change rooms because the hotel was full. Another member of my family had another room and it also smelled like smoke. The reception said it may be a problem with “ventilation” and sent a housekeeper to spray the room with strong smelling perfume spray, which, of course only made the allergies worse. Additionally, I found black hairs all over the room and bed (in both rooms), smudges on the mirrors, food in the cracks of the glass table, and smears of something on the chairs and furniture. Needless to say, we were also disappointed with the cleanliness of the room. I have never seen so much hair in a hotel room, perhaps the housekeeping staff needs to use a hair net as the quantity was significant. I believe this hotel is popular with locals for the bar and cigar bar, as well as the gym. Sadly, it feels like some of the other areas are neglected, such as the restaurant which was dark and understaffed. Very limited options for those with dietary restrictions at breakfast with little labeling. Additionally, it feels like a hotel that caters to those who are in business groups rather than families. Despite not being able to be placed in rooms together due to “all the families “ wanting rooms together, I only saw one child in the hotel- the majority was business groups and young people smoking and hanging out at the bar.

We arrived in Podgorica at midnight on Sunday (after a 3 hour delayed flight) to find that the hotel we'd booked didn't have our reservation. As the clock had just struck midnight, it was my husband's birthday and I was really upset! Luckily, the hotel were able to ring around to try to help us and we decided to book a night at the Ramada - and we are so glad this happened! As soon as we arrived, Albert on reception was so lovely and kind. He is an absolute credit to the hotel and left us feeling really cared for. Even though the bar was closed he made sure we were able to get a drink, and in the morning after breakfast, we found a cake in our room! So many of the staff wished my husband a happy birthday too - it was really nice and unexpected. (Breakfast on the rooftop was great too!) Thank you SO much Albert and the team - you made our impression of Podgorica amazing, despite our initial bad experience :)

Hotel convenient in location and perfect for just one night in Podgorica, a city which in itself is not Paris but which still offers a little something to pass the time. Kind at the reception and the structure is objectively very clean but poorly furnished, with a small bathroom and made with little money. I'll just say that the bathroom sink was tiny and had the long kitchen faucet instead of the one it should have had. Considering the costs in Montenegro, it's not even that cheap. Structure set up without too much criterion, with added terraces that create surreal situations such as room windows that give directly onto the hotel entrance and bricked-up doors. Not the best but worth a night. Nice bar manager!

I was in the hotel with my partner for 4 nights, and here is our experience. 1) A hotel has the rooms downstairs, and if you are a girl or an elderly person, you could suffer bringing your luggage down the spiral stairs without the help of the hotel members. No elevators, no bell boys, nothing. 2) We didn't have a safety deposit box which had been promised in the booking details. After a few attempts to get it, we got an annoyed answer that it's broken and if we need something to store, we can leave it on the reception... leave money and valuable goods to the reception, where it's every day a new receptionist. One moment we decided to ask for a discount because we hadn't had a promised amenity and received an answer that everybody asks for a discount. Should we, as a guests, care about who asks them about the discount? Finally, after our decision to talk to the manager, the safe deposit box finally mysteriously appeared next morning. Truth to be told, it's magic. 3) We also didn't a Do Not Disturb sign, and it was quite an adventure to get it. For some reason, we had to ask it several times, and finally we got it. Not sure what was the problem here, but okay. 4) Also, when we booked the room, we certainly mentioned that there are going to be 2 adults in it, but suddenly we hadn't found any amenities for a second person. No 2nd slippers, no shampoo/conditioner stuff, not even a second hand towel. After our question we finally got a second pair of those, but, guess what, the next day the 2nd hand towel disappeared. 5) Sometimes you, as a guest, can use a piece of tableware in the room for your needs, such as using a glass, for example. So did we, and left it on the table, being certain that the hotel staff could accomplish such as simple task as washing their glass. It was quite obvious that it was used. It is not like we, as a room guests, have detergents to clean it. They ignored us. We left it untouched to see what happens next day. They ignored us. We ordered a food at their room service and left this glass among other tableware from this dinner, in the middle of it, and... they left it alone dirty on the dirty table. 6) One day they brought us a single roll of toiler paper while we had 2 on the check-in day. Typical rolls of hotel toilet paper aren't the largest one, neither were these ones. Next morning before leaving the hotel for our trip I asked the receiptionist to bring 2 rolls of toilet paper this time. They did so. Next cleaning day they left us with even less than 1 whole roll. Not sure why I had to ask them every day. 7) Another morning we came to the breakfast, which was included and wasn't bad, and my partner decided to make a cappucino from the coffee machine located in the breakfast area. So she chose the beverage, pushed the button, and there was no milk, only coffee. After a while she decided to ask the restaurant staff about this problem, and the waitress found that there was no milk in the coffee machine. After replenishing

This is second time for me to stay in CUE hotel, absolutely the best hotel in Podgorica. Staff is amazing and very friendly and kind 😀 Spa Centar is 5* I had massage and can be the best 5 in world i had! My recommendation for hotel!

The room was extremely large with a balcony. Parking is available at the property. The distance from the center was about 5' by car and about 40' on foot. Breakfast was extremely basic. We asked for 2 extra pillows and we were told that because the hotel was full (we didn't realize this) they didn't have extra pillows !?!?!, so we say bring something at least a sheet. After about half an hour they brought us 2 sheets! This alone is enough for me not to consider this accommodation a very good choice.

Very nice hotel on cul de sac. Staff were professional and helpful. Set wake up call. Ordered AM taxi to airport. Helped with luggage to taxi. Lift was large enough for 2 people and 4 bags to fit with room to spare. Not always the case in boutique hotels. Rooms were nicely appointed and bathroom was very nice. Nice luggage shelf just inside room. Bed was too firm for me. Adjustable height shower head did not stay at any height above the lowest position. We’re only there one night so no opportunity for repair or new room.
