HOTELS IN PIRAN THAT WE RECOMMEND
HOTEL PIRAN Piran, Slovenia Hotel Piran has the prime position in the town, right on the sea-front and two minutes from the main Tartini square and harbour. It is quite possibly the best boutique style hotel on the Slovenian coast. It is housed in a historic building dating back to 1913 and the front exterior is quite beautiful. The hotel was completely renovated in 2013 and we must say it was extremely tastefully done with no expense spared. The lobby is spacious and well decorated and there is a lift to all floors. The hotel has 103 rooms and suites. The rooms are very comfortable and clean with a flat screen TV, air con and nice furnishings. If possible, ask for a sea facing room (ideally on higher floors) to enjoy the harbour views and the little fishing boats coming and going. It costs more but is well worth it. The bathrooms are not very large but they are modern and very clean and shiny and supplied with some lovely Italian toiletries. The shower cubicle is large with a good pressure of hot water. The breakfasts are superb, You can serve yourself or be served. There is a massive choice. You can enjoy cheeses, Slovenian hams, fruits, cereal, yoghurts, juices, you can cobble an English style breakfast together with smoky sausage, Stockmeyer style bacon, eggs and latkes, there is toast, rolls, croissants and just about everything you can desire. The coffee is great and you can get a cup of tea. On fine days breakfast could be taken on the seafront. The hotel has both seafront bar/restaurant and roof top bar. Roof top prices are a little steep, but both areas have wonderful views and you can watch the sunset over the sea. You must book for dinner if you want a terrace table. The food is very good and tasty but quite expensive. The hotel does not have a pool but has a jetty so you can swim in the sea and then relax enjoying drinks from the hotel cafe. You can also hire sunbeds from the hotel along with towels. The staff at the hotel cannot be faulted; nothing is ever too much trouble, they are warm, welcoming and very knowledgeable. There is free WiFi available all around the hotel, but it is pretty slow and rather unstable. Finding the hotel is easy enough if you follow their directions. Arriving by car is fine and you can drive right up to the main entrance and drop off your bags. The car then needs to be driven to the main multi-story car-park on the edge of Piran. This can be done with the help of a hotel driver or on your own and getting back to the hotel either by frequent free shuttle or a pleasant 20 minute walk. The hotel's rate at the car park is much better than simply paying direct to the car park so make sure you arrange this with the hotel reception in advance or on arrival. In summary, a great boutique style hotel in a fantastic location with a very professional and friendly staff and nice and well appointed rooms with modern amenities.

HOTEL TARTINI Piran, Slovenia Hotel Tartini is located in the heart of Piran right on the beautiful oval-shaped marble Tartini square. As Piran is a small town the hotel is close to everything you would want to see and do. The hotel is named after a world famous violin player and composer Giuseppe Tartini who was born in a house in the immediate vicinity of the hotel. The design of the building is stylish, nice pink/salmon color outside and the new bits blend well with the old. The centre of the hotel is an open atrium which gives the reception area a spacious feel. There’s a lift and various ramps to access all floors. If you sit in the reception area and look at the shape of the interior, it's not unlike something that Salvador Dali might design. A mixture of lines and curves, steps, ramps with art work adorning all the walls. The hotel is fairly small, having 45 rooms. The rooms are of decent size and uniquely decorated, very clean and furnishings are all very new. The windows have wooden shutters to keep out the sun and noise. Air conditioning works well and there's also a TV and mini fridge in each room. The beds are very comfortable with plenty of pillows and the extra blanket in the closet. Generally you can choose between a sea view or square view rooms and both can be noisy because you are at the heart of the activities in Piran. If you want to feel the life of Piran, ask for a room overlooking the Tartini square and if you like views, request a sea view room (although buildings partly obscure it). All sea-view rooms have a small balcony. The bathrooms are small but modern and everything is spotlessly clean and well maintained and the shower is incredibly powerful. The buffet breakfast is lovely, fresh fruit, cereal, yogurt, cheese, vegetables, cold meat, hot food, lovely cakes and you can also order different cooked eggs and bacon. The breakfast is served in a lovely large dining area with inside and outside seating. The hotel restaurant is great, but you'll probably want to eat outside of the hotel as there are plenty of fantastic restaurants in Piran. The staff are just wonderful, accommodating to your every need, very personalized service. There are two very nice outdoor seating areas for relaxing and drinking. One is off the second floor landing, and the other on the roof with fantastic views and both locations have bar service. As far as parking goes, the hotel is in a pedestrian area so you can drive in to drop your luggage and then you have to park right outside town - it is a little less than a 10 minute walk, or you can take the free shuttle which runs every ten minutes. The free WiFi works a little bit slow but it is fine with patience. All in all, a great hotel in the centre of Piran with modern rooms, cordial service and excellent breakfast. Everything is on your doorstep.

HOTEL FIESA Piran, Slovenia Hotel Fiesa is a lovely small 3-star hotel perfectly situated right on the coast with an amazing view of the Adriatic Sea. The hotel isn´t in fact in Piran, but a pleasant 15 minute stroll along the coast in nearby Fiesa. You get a torch from the hotel for when it's dark. Around the hotel you will find a few shops, coffee shops, fast food, bars, not a lot but just enough. There is also plenty of water sports for hire just by the hotel. The beach is a rocky cove, not sandy, so its not a strikingly pretty cove. The hotel itself is fairly small, having only 21 rooms and one suite. It was recently partially renovated. The furnishings of the rooms are basic and a bit dated though very clean, but the bathrooms have just been refurbished and they look all new and modern with a lovely large walk in shower and great hot water pressure. Air-con in the rooms is very effective, which is great because it can get really hot in the summer afternoons. The rooms also have a TV and a fridge. If possible, try to book a room with a balcony, it's such a pleasure sitting on it and soaking up the peaceful surroundings and taking in a sea view to die for. The breakfast every morning is a delight, plenty of choice, cereals, salads, eggs, ham, cold meats, cheese, breads, jams, cakes, plenty of fresh water, juice, coffee, tea, and more. The breakfast is served in a large room, never a problem with queues, everything is plentiful. There is also plenty of seating for breakfast inside and out. It is lovely sitting outside every morning overlooking the sea whilst having a leisurely breakfast. The hotel also has a bar and restaurant and serves food daily, but there are some fantastic restaurants in Piran, so you'll probably want to have dinner outside of the hotel. All the staff at the hotel are so welcoming, smiling all the time and so helpful - what more could you want. They can give you lots of information about Piran and the Slovenian coast and also some info on the rest of the places you are going to be travelling to in Slovenia. The free WiFi works fine in most rooms except on the upper floor, where the signal is weak and can be slow. The hotel is easy to find from the highway and there is plenty of free car parking in a secure car park just a few minutes walk from the hotel entrance. Overall a very nice hotel to stay at and a great value for its location.

BARBARA PIRAN BEACH HOTEL & SPA Piran, Slovenia Barbara Piran Beach Hotel & Spa is a nice hotel situated on the coast with great views of the beach and sea below. The private beach area is a great reason to stay here in itself. While it is not a white sand beach, there are plenty of chairs, cabanas and rocks to have your own space and once you see the beautiful blue colour and total transparency of the sea, you´ll want to wade in immediately. The location is great and very quiet, it is a short 15 minute walk along the coast to the old town of Piran, but it's a pleasant walk along the sea. The hotel itself was given a makeover three years ago when it was acquired by the new owners. They've managed to convert a totally uninspiring piece of Eastern European concrete into an inviting and fun place to stay using Pop Art. The hotel is medium sized and has 36 rooms and 10 suites. The rooms are quite small but they´re perfectly formed with enough storage space for luggage and contents. The beds and pillows are extremely comfortable and make for a great night's sleep. There's also a flat screen TV and mini bar in all the rooms and the air con works well and cools the room down fairly rapidly. Each room also has a small balcony with lovely sea views. The bathrooms are small but adequate (how much of your holiday do you want to spend in the bathroom anyway?) and the towels are changed each day. The breakfast is simple and good quality with the usual variety of options, Maybe just a little too reliant upon meat and dairy and bread, it would have been nice for a bit more fruit and healthy options. There's a nice beach bar with good food and drinks, The spa area is nice with a variety of treats. One of the most impressive aspects of the hotel though is the level of service from the young, friendly, and stylish staff, all of whom speak superb English. Parking is very convenient under shaded parking areas and costs €5 per day. The free WiFi is available, but the signal is weak in the rooms but gets stronger in the reception area. All in all, the hotel is a great choice if you want to be in the proximity to Piran without being in Piran, as it could be difficult for car parking, busy and possibly a little noisy at night.
