DeGrassi Boutique Garni Hotel Izola

Excellent hotel in an old building of character but with interiors that are very new and stylish. The room was very modern and everything was in perfect condition. There is a safe and minibar. Only things missing are tea/coffee facilities or free bottled water but the tap water was fine. Nice walk-in rain shower and plenty of toiletries. Location is very good with restaurants and cafes nearby. The hotel bar/cafe is also really nice with a stylish indoor area and a pleasant seating area outside. It was very quiet at night - our room faced the side and we didn’t hear a thing even though we slept with the window open. Breakfast was good with fresh croissants with various fillings, the usual cold buffet items and eggs and coffee made to order and to your liking. Service was excellent from the great server at breakfast to the receptionist who kindly went out of his way to resolve an issue we had with payment at a local car park. The hotel doesn’t have its own parking other than a spot at the back for dropping off luggage but there are several public car parks nearby. We parked at Arigoni car park near the marina (5 minutes walk from the hotel) which costs €10 per 24 hours. The payment instructions are a bit complicated. Your number plate gets scanned on the way in and you pay on the way out. If you want to go in and out you can pay in advance for up to 14 days. It’s really big and camper vans can park there too (€18/24 hrs).

Welcoming hostess; we were immediately family

Avoid wine bar. Very nice atmosphere……it was nice evening….but waithers are waiting that you go away……and close the bar as soon it possible in the evening. We order the wine, waither has checked if is on stock, after 10 minutes she informed us that we can not get wine, that she must close the bar…(at 22.10 o clock)
