Breakfast was normal, nothing to boast about. It has the usual hot, cold food to pick from.

Everything , no complaints. The pool is open only from June 1st though , but to make up for my disappointment Goran gave me a bottle of wine, which was very sweet

This was a lovely place to stay for one night in Motovun. It was clean, cute and super quiet. We were offered welcome drinks on our own balcony and breakfast (available for extra charge) was also served there.

Great place for lovers of medieval hill-top towns and truffles. One can enjoy just a stroll through the town and views of surroundings for an hour, can have a great dining experience or stay for days and explore Istria, one of the prettiest and welcoming places on earth. "Medieval" and "hill-top" also mean that you walk a lot on rugged cobblestone, you walk uphill and climb stairs, and "great place" means it's crowded in the high season (summer). Still, one of the better places to escape to from crowded coastal towns, focused primarily on visitors' wallets.

A classic medieval town that was so fun to explore.
A classic medieval town that was so fun to explore. Be sure to visit the cathedral (opened about 10 during our visit) and (carefully) climb the bell tower for a spectacular view of the valley and beyond. We visited in late October when some businesses had closed for the season and others were winding down. We would visit again in September.

Great location in old town.
Great location in old town. Wonderful people and amazing views from the walls and restaurants. Wine and truffle country and free samples were almost too much. Lol
Tiny and hilly old stone streets within a walled city oozing with history.
Our host was gracious, laid back and a pleasure to just chat with.
We would highly recommend.

It's a spectacular location on a hilltop with amazing views all-round of mountainous country including vineyards & olive groves. Delicious and reasonably-priced restaurants at the very top, friendly people, tons of charm. Nearby are several vineyards & the local wines are very nice, and affordable. Easy day trips to Pula, Rovinj, Buzet & others.

This was my first time in Istria.
This was my first time in Istria. We checked out Kozlovic winery, we sampled their delicious wine and had a tour. View is spectacular. Had dinner in Motovun, tried gnocchi with truffles, very tasty! Pictures of the amazing views do not do it justice. Will definitely visit again!

Motovun is lovely little town in the heart of Istria.
Motovun is lovely little town in the heart of Istria. I really liked it. The prices at restaurants in general in comparison to offer are a bit limited. However we managed to find something for ourselves at the end. We missed bakeries. We did not find single one so we travelled to Pazin on our way back home and found amazing bakery.
Perhaps tourism board should create a special list with all possible places providing food and menu of same, all in one place saves from walking especially if one has slight walking disabilities.
Everything else is lovely and look forward returning to Istria
The hotel is amazing. it’s perfectly located for a 20-30 min walk into Motovun. The service is incredible. The staff are all very helpful and friendly. The rooms are very different but really cool. You can do wine tasting in the evening which is very good. Breakfast and dinner is on the terrace overlooking the beautiful countryside. You can borrow bikes and cycle to neighbouring towns along a disused railway track. The swimming pool, sauna and steam room were all excellent. It’s a beautiful hotel.
The perfect modern Villa, fantastic peaceful location with views of Motovun and the valley below. The beds are so comfortable, linen and towels high quality. Bathrooms , showers baths all modern. Air conditioning, sofa and tv area, pool table we used a lot, outside eating area, shaded seating area and the pool and loungers were wonderful! The managing agent and the owner are really friendly and attentive, lovely genuine people. We had the perfect week and will be back again!
Small, but very creative and cosy accommodation, the quality of the construction is exemplary. However, due to its size, it is only recommended for short holidays, but that's okay, the area is very beautiful and there is a lot to explore so one probably won’t spend much time at the accommodation. Very quiet, peaceful, easy to relax. The view from the terrace of the accommodation over Motovun is spectacular.
The hosts were very nice and helpful. Ideal for couples.
This hotel was fantastic from booking to leaving. We ran into their driver at the bottom of the hill once we arrived and he gave us fantastic detail on where to park and then picked us up (thank goodness we did not have to walk with our bags) and took us straight up to the hotel at the top of the hill. It’s a very quaint hotel and our room was clean and spacious with a large terrace. It is close to everything and everyone we encountered were very kind and helpful.
Lovely experience to stay in a 300 year old stone building, renovated into a cosy and comfortable holiday retreat. Everything one needs to self-cater was provided. A dedicated car park was 70m away. Location was perfect to explore Motovun and surrounding villages. Our host Goran was very generous (gave us complimentary wine, olive oil and home-made brandy) and helpful. Highly recommend this accommodation.
The view from the balcony is amazing. Nice big balcony as well. Room is well appointed.
The owners pick you up from the carpark used for hotel guests which is a 15.min up and down steep hills so well needed.
Take the breakfast offered by.ownera as there is nothing open for breakfast in the village.
Location is great just 5 mins from the castle.
We adored Hotel Kaštel. The staff were welcoming and very helpful. Motovun is a wonderful place to stay.The room had superb double aspect views from the second floor. It was comfortable, with good air conditioning and calming decor. Highly recommended.
The view is spectacular as is the patio area. The space is very spacious as well and has a nice kitchen and bathroom. The hosts were very responsive to questions we had. We appreciated the free parking option as well. And a map of the area was great.
The owner/hostess is very friendly and hospitable. Though I thought to leave early because it was my last day in Croatia, I was a little late. She asked me if I wanted a coffee. Besides the coffee, she gave me homemade cookies, which were delicious.
The rooms are comfortable and spacious. Beautiful scenery. Quiet. Excellent dinner and breakfast. We enjoyed Toni and staff. Don’t expect or look for a lot of interaction - simply enjoy their company and character. It was a very relaxing time.
This is truly the nicest place I’ve stayed so far on my journey. The bed was comfortable, the place was clean, and it had a full kitchen and spacious bathroom. My host even met with me on short notice after a last-minute booking.
Nice host. The apartment was clean, bigger than I thought it will be and had everything we needed. Location near Motovun, just few minutes by car. We really enjoyed in night bath in jacuzzi.
Great location in the centre of Motovun , our room on the 1st floor had a wonderful , spacious view .Room was really large and comfortable ,the furniture is a bit dated .
