Podgorica Hotels with Pools

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.

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.

I have just returned from Podgorica after staying at this hotel. 15minute from the airport and smack bang in the center (perfect). The check in was swiftly done for the 4 of us and the rooms were spacious and very very clean. Location could not be better for the shops/bars/eating houses. Did not use the pool area. Breakfast was also good and plenty to choose from. I would recommend to anyone. I had just one slight problem that I actually foresaw but still did, my bathroom wall and door was constructed from safety glass the wall glass protruded past the side of the shower making it easy to walk into, and that's what i did during the night almost knocking myself out, its a safety issue that would of been seen within the UK but seemingly not in the Balkans. Oh well it will heel in time.

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

I selected this hotel due to its location near the airport. It was a very quick and easy drive vs driving from Kotor where I had stayed the night before. I had never heard of voco before but I will definitely search out this brand in the future based on how good my stay was. This is a definitely a property where your IHG hotel status will be recognized. I was given a corner suite. The person checking me asked me several questions about my reservation before assigning my room which was quite nice. It showed that the staff here is attentive and cares about providing a great experience to guests! The pool and spa situation here is also quite nice! The bed was absolutely perfect as well and was what you should expect from a 5-star hotel!
