Hotels Near Golden Cape in Rovinj

We stayed in the 1-bedroom apartment with terrace and sea view at the Residence Porta Antica in Rovinj for 2-nights in mid-Apr (€160/night). The residence was perfectly located on the pedestrian walkway on the Rovinj harbour, amid all of the stores and restaurants and backing onto old town for a short hike up to the church. Be sure to arrange with the hotel a pick-up at the parking lot just outside of old town - you can't drive into the historic area, so it is a bit of a haul dragging your luggage over the cobblestones – and they are happy to send someone out in their golf cart. Our 2nd floor suite was perfect, fronted by a wide balcony (the only one in the building) with a table and 2 chairs to enjoy the view over the restaurant below onto the harbour. You enter into a large sitting area and kitchen fronted by two windows and a double glassed door (the room is light and airy) with heritage accents throughout in the high ceilings with dark wood beams, accent walls of huge stone, and antique pieces among the couch (hide-a-bed), table and chairs. The kitchen had a mini-refrigerator, hot plate, pots, cutlery, dishes etc., as well as a pod-coffee maker. The bathroom was small and a bit cramped, as you would expect in a heritage building retrofit with modern conveniences, but comfortably functional. The bedroom was also a bit small, but the queen bed and pillows lulled us into perfect sleep in the quiet nights. The two closets provided plenty of storage space. Breakfast at the Hotel Adriatic (almost next door) was fabulous, the best a la carte selection we have had on this trip. And to top it off, the residence's staff were great, cheerful, friendly, and very helpful with travel planning, restaurants, everything. Overall, stay in this room (none of the others are as nice) – it is a bit more expensive, but the balcony makes all the difference. You will not be disappointed.

The location is very good. No breakfast, no extra bed.

It's hard to carry a suitcase, but the location is good. It's a new experience. Separate from the accommodation fee, you can pay the tourist tax 1.86 euro. You can also use a card. The staff are friendly and the guide is good. Thank you. Because it's a company connection, we can't contact at least well. But thankfully, we can check in late at night. Car parking is very good. If the check-in is over 8 p.m. It's better to contact in advance. Thank you very much to the male staff of the office for taking care of our convenience.

Our quaint apartment was impeccably clean and so well appointed. The fresh fruit, cereal, milk, cream and pasta ingredients were a five star touch. We created a delicious dinner and sipped on hot tea every morning with the windows open looking at the sea. What a view of the sea. Dennis our bell man escorted us to our unit from the taxi stand with ease and friendly Croatian style. The Angelo D'Oro staff at the hotel were also incredible and they manage this apartment with precision. The hotel is quite nice too. Our Rovinj experience was top notch thanks to Angelo D'Oro. Highly recommend Trevisol unit #3 right by an amazing all day chill hip cafe. Thanks again Dennis!!

This was my 2nd visit to the hotel. First time was in September and this time peak August. The contrast between the 2 months was shocking. I’ll start with the good. Rooms all have sea views and are spotlessly clean. Comfy beds and perfectly adequate bathroom. Pool area is really nice and the tiered landscaping makes good use of the space. Plenty of sun beds. Snack bar has amazing pizza big enough to share and servers super friendly there. The pebble beach is pretty and I like the rocky sunbathing platform that spans the length of the resort. The sea is clean and clear. Buffet restaurant always had something for all 7 of our party even the most fussy, The not so good. TUI flight landed a.m and got to hotel around 11:30. At first was told rather briskly to basically go away and come back at 3! I had to ask for towels so we could at least relax by the pool. Towels can be changed every 3 days with tokens given at check in. I appreciate that the rooms may not have been ready but I’ve never actually been turned away. Not the best start. Also the service in the restaurant was hit and miss. I think that water should at least be complimentary with dinner. The bad. The hotel guests are 90% German/Austrian so don’t expect any English speaking entertainment. Also bear in mind that there are hundreds of toddlers running around the pool and restaurant areas and these are barely supervised by their parents resulting in constantly being splashed and lots of little hands in the buffet! If you haven’t got kids go outside of school holidays. Air con in rooms and restaurant was totally inadequate. It was 32° most days and the restaurant at dinner time was stifling. They need fans desperately. Parking in the hotel is a total nightmare. Nowhere near enough spaces for rooms so ended up parking outside. Lastly and most disappointing….24€ per day for 2 sun beds and a parasol is quite frankly disgusting. Would cost a family of four 48€ a day!?!? Totally out of order.

We have been going to hotel Molindrio for 10 years with my parents and sister and are club members. Every year has been a great experience but that all changed this year. From the beginning the reception has told us every year that we are free to use the beach at hotel Parentium and we are also able to use the white chairs to lie down. We have been doing this ever since. This year we were approached by life guards at the beach asking us why we were using the white chairs if we are not guests of hotel Parentium, because this was not allowed. We explained that we have been doing this for years and had been told by the reception that this was not a problem because we were guests at the sister hotel Molindrio. When we made the reception aware of this altercation with the life guards they first claimed that these chairs were never offerd to us by the reception and that we were lucky that we had not been caught earlier for using these chairs ( which made us feel absolutely horrible, we just did what the reception has told us for years that we could do ), after we explained that we are not lying and have been guest for 10 years and have always been using these chairs they switched up the story and told us that there is a new management and there are new rules so we cannot use these chairs at the beach anymore ( so now we are not liars but the new director has given these orders, reception could have just told us this from the start instead of making us look like liars ). So we had to lie down on the concrete. My dad has a bad back and instead if a relaxing vacation his back got even worse from lying on the hard concrete with just a towel. Absolutely disgraceful! Furthermore the food this year was of very poor quality. The fruit they served was either rotten or without taste, which left us really feeling disappointed especially because we have been coming here for years and have always been so satisfied with the food. Needless to say we will not be coming back anymore after being treated this way. We are very disappointed.

It is a beautiful location overlooking the sea. The rooms and bathroom are spacious with a sitting area. Beds are good. It was very clean and quiet. No noise and loud music or rowdy crowd. Delicious. If you like a DJ you can walk to one of the other hotels. These are on the same site. We had breakfast and dinner. That was a lot of choice and really tasty. We will definitely go back to this hotel.

We are staying here at the moment having stayed at a great hotel the other side of porec multiple times (Park Resort) and the hotel in itself is not shabby or run down and has decent facilities, but is not really for people with young families. We were given a room which looks like it has come straight from the 80’s with us huge solid wood cupboards and furniture. There could be so much more space if they simply removed this and put some cheap modern furniture in like the ones in the pictures! Needless to say our room looks nothing like the pictures! You also have to pay for a fridge in this hotel too which is another €50 and is not exactly the coldest or most powerful. I asked at reception having known this from other reviews and it’s been added to my bill even though when I got there I think there was already a fridge in there and one next door where my son and mother in law are staying- they haven’t added a fridge but theirs barely works! When I said the fridge was already in there so why should I have to pay I was told that they managed to put it in the room within the minute I walked from reception to room- yeah I doubt that! Sofa bed after spending 20 min removing 10 tonne 1980 cushions and throws and dodging the huge wooden furniture is very uncomfortable. Nowhere to really store suitcases or put buggy The hotel is quite possibly the most inaccessible hotel I have ever stayed in: - there are steps EVERYWHERE and 3 tiny lifts that only go from certain level. - steps by the pool, steps to get to the lift, steps to the restaurant, steps to the bar, steps to all the other bathing and pool areasj - most of the steps are just too wide that you can’t even gradually ease the buggy up so you ok literally have to carry it all the time! - all pool areas have small amount of sun beds which by 11am are all taken and before midday the here are literally no loungers AT ALL - yet most of them are empty for hours at a time if not the whole day - there is only one route down to the sea front and to all the different pools and it’s like a rabbit warren with no simple gates or openings to allow you to move freely between the different spaces. - for example if no sun loungers and want to sit on hammocks or grass, you have to walk all the way round because there are glass divides all around except a single entrance, and you guessed it- more steps!ii There was a stuff around this hotel but not loads and everything is at least a few minute walk. The ‘mini shop’ is pathetic and has no food or drinks really and just full of ‘tat’ and it opens at random times- best off walking a bit to a half decent market. There are a few nice little pebble coves but the sea was horrible with some dirty looking film on it or something right where you would expect to take the kids in normally. Having visited another plava Laguna I wouldn’t stay here again as most of the staff are pretty miserable too compared to the normal people we have come across in previous visits to

My husband and I booked the hotel as a last minute cheap deal and on first impressions we were impressed. The hotel is in a nice setting with well tended gardens and a short walk to the seafront promenade, great if you want to lie around the pool all week but we found it too cut off. There are no local buses in the area at all and the small tourist train was 1km away and had very restricted times being early season. A taxi into porec was £20 each way. Hotel food was typical for a large tourist hotel and we always found something to eat. The bedrooms however are extremely small and very basic no storage cupboards or drawers for anything at all.the bathrooms are so small the shower door wouldn't open fully as banged into the toilet and the bathroom door couldn't open fully due to the towel rail behind it. You get bigger bathrooms on cruise ships ! The main down side was the constant stream of tourist coaches which used the hotel on a daily basis ( 8 full coaches on one particular day )which left the hotel more like a travel lodge motel and not like a relaxing away from it all holiday break. In all an OK hotel for the money we paid but not somewhere we would return to unless in a coach party.
