Kotor's boutique hotel scene is defined by restored historic palaces and contemporary design, all within or near the UNESCO-listed Old Town. Properties like Hotel Vardar and Historic Boutique Hotel Cattaro place you directly on centuries-old squares, while others, such as Hotel Forza Mare, offer a private beach and an outdoor pool 3 km from the city center. Expect guest scores between 85 and 94, with rates typically ranging from €70 to €250 per night depending on the season.
For a stay inside the walls, focus on the Old Town, where you'll find properties like Boutique Hotel Hippocampus. This hotel occupies a restored 17th-century building and sits steps from St. Tryphon Cathedral. For a quieter, seafront position, the Dobrota district-about 3 km along the bay-hosts the Palazzi Radomiri Heritage Boutique Hotel, a 5-star property with a spa and free parking. All hotels on this list offer free Wi-Fi, and most include airport shuttle service and breakfast options ranging from buffet to à la carte.
