Great little hotel, nice staff, good location. Enjoyed the breakfast. Only downside is the very loud music from nearby club that goes till 1am in the morning. Not the hotel's fault but doesn't allow for a restful night's sleep.

Located in the heart of the old town Kotor, Hotel Hippocampus is an excellent boutique hotel. Just 3 min walking from both sea gate and river gate, hotel Hippocampus is manned by excellent friendly staffs. Our superior room was very clean, beautiful stylish luxurious interior, very comfortable bed and very clean bathroom. The breakfast served was freshly made and tasteful. Highly recommended for a perfect stay in Kotor.

This is properly a boutique hotel. It feels special the moment you walk in. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and very well designed. The building is cosy and location great. (Bar across the road a bit noisy, if you're a light sleeper ask for a room at the back). Roof bar beautiful. Staff SO friendly. The only thing I would change is to make breakfast a generous buffet situation rather than an order and eat situation. On the whole, very pleased, would go back. Probably will.

The hotel itself is gorgeous and located in the heart of the old town - it’s very easy to get to everywhere and there’s lots of food options around. The staff were lovely and the room was very clean. The thing that really let it down were the bars outside which blasted music until 1am - I am a heavy sleeper but even I couldn’t ignore the room vibrating from the music outside. It’s fair that this is not the hotel’s fault, and the staff were extremely apologetic but there was unfortunately nothing they could do and so it meant I got poor sleep 2/3 nights we stayed (this was on weekdays). Alternatively, you could join in on the party at the bars instead!

Staff is friendly and helpful! The unfortunate part of the stay is the hotel is surrounded by 3 bars so it was loud late into the night, not a good sleep.The AC didn't really work so we had a warm room. Hotel could improve by fixing missing baseboards and broken light fixtures in the hallway, Broken and missing toilet flush mechanism in the downstairs restroom. Not sure why we had a second refrigerator in the room that didn't work? Breakfast was good and plenty. Hotel needs maintenance!
