Don’t look any further. This hotel was spectacular. We had an unfortunate Air BNB experience and had to leave after one night. We had plans at 9 am and lots of luggage. We booked with Hotel Hippocampus and they allowed us to leave our bags that morning until we could formally check in. Our room was spacious, beds were comfortable, TV had access to our apps at home and the location in Old Town was unbeatable. Staff were lovely and the included breakfast was delicious. I will say that the website warning regarding music being played at until late at night was correct. We had ear plugs and a sound machine and could still slightly hear the music, but slept soundly and wouldn’t stop us from staying here again!

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.

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!

Loved this hotel! A boutique hotel in the heart of the Kotor old town. The facilities were 10/10 and the staff were helpful whenever we had a question. The room and the bathroom were spacious with all the amenities we could need. The breakfast every morning was great and the restaurant on the roof had and incredible view and even better food.

A lovely hotel in a renovated old house in the center of Kotor. Tastefully done in a modern style that blends well with the surroundings. Room spacious and well-appointed. Staff is efficient and warm and welcoming. Do not miss dinner on the rooftop terrace.

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!

Great hotel in beautiful Kotor

We loved our stay at the Hippocampus. All of the staff we met were really friendly and welcoming. The room was large and comfortable and breakfast was good (although a little more variety would have been welcome). The hotel is in the heart of the old town making it perfect for exploring beautiful Kotor - but it does mean it is noisy at night being next to a bar - the only downside in an otherwise amazing stay.
