Podgorica Hotels with Bars

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

No free mineral water. The location is in the new city, not in the traditional old city. The facilities are still ok and relatively new.

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.

The hotel is nice, and the steaks in the restaurant downstairs are also delicious. We had dinner at their restaurant for two days in a row.

Great hospitality, kindness and good service define this hotel in Podgorica (Montenegro). They are great professionals. A very comfortable and clean hotel at a good price. Grateful for the attention received during this stay, if I return to this city I will repeat for sure !!!

What we liked: About the room and the hotel: Quite a pleasant hotel, which consists of 5 zones: bedroom (the door closes), bathroom, kitchen-hall, corridor and balcony. The room has a capsule coffee machine in the room and the capsules themselves, a kettle (but no tea or sugar) About the interior: The interior is pleasing to the eye. The furniture is all new, modern. There is no tawdry or excessive pathos. The room is spacious, it definitely won’t be cramped. About the view from the eye: The windows overlook the courtyard and we could see the parking lot. It was quite quiet, the courtyard itself was nice and pleasant. About the cleaning: Everything was pretty clean everywhere, from the reception and the room, to the parking lot and the dining room. Cleaning was done in a timely manner: towels and bathroom amenities were updated. All towels are spotless, the bed is sparkling white. Not a single stain was noticed on the carpet About the staff: The staff is friendly, will always come to the rescue and answer all questions About the breakfasts: Pleasant and tasty breakfasts for every taste: fruits, spicy pickled vegetables, vegetables, meat, sausages, bacon, eggs, cheeses, juices, water, coffee, tea and much more About the SPA: Inside the SPA area there are 4 sun loungers and 4 hangers, a sauna and a swimming pool with hydromassage. The sauna is quite small, but pleasant and clean. There is no unpleasant chemical smell, which is a huge plus. A little life hack: the hydromassage areas are located in the pool itself, so feel free to press the silver buttons wherever you find them :) About the gym: The hotel also has a gym, all the equipment is in good condition. What could be improved: – Bottles There is no water, there is no water at all to even drink after a long journey. Only in the hallway there is a cooler, but it doesn’t seem very comfortable to go out every time - The shower has no curtain/door, the angle to the drain is not according to the canons, so get ready for a flood. It’s unpleasant to enter after another person – There is ventilation in the bathroom, but it doesn’t work, so the mirror will sweat 100% – Broken trash can in the bathroom (we fixed it ourselves) – Broken toilet paper holder (there was no screwdriver, they would have fixed it that way) – Few sun loungers in the sauna , so if you are unlucky, like us, you will be stupid in the aisle for a minute and think about what to do next - There are few hooks in the spa for bathrobes, you will be stupid for another 20 seconds how to get out of this situation, while everyone who is in the spa is looking at you - There are no towels in the SPA; you have to take them from your room or not at all. It is strange to use one towel for a clean body after a shower and for drying the body after water with chemicals - the sauna is cold. If the sensor reads 60, then the actual temperature will be 30-45 degrees. The entire spa company stood near the control panel to set it to 110, but were able to warm it up to 73–75. This was the maximum. The husband said that this is due to the fact that the temperature sensor inside the sauna is installed directly above the heater and it (the sensor) constantly sees a temperature higher than in the sauna itself. According to the rules, it should be placed in the farthest corner – The “do not enter” and “cleaning required” buttons are mixed up, a small thing, but somehow strange all the same – The treadmill in the gym did not work
