Ulcinj Hotels
renovated

Hotel facilities available in Ulcinj are improved, but their number has remained largely on the level of last year - a conclusion that can be drawn with the preparation for the season which is the southernmost municipality in coming to an end.
In the hotel-tourist company "Ulcinj Riviera", which has close to 1600 beds, the first guests are expected in early May. The local tourist organization that follows the preparation, say that "Ulcinj Riviera" hotel renovated its "Olympic" and "Belvi" and nudist resort in Ada, and the level of accommodation capacity in those facilities built for the stars. Despite this, the largest hotelier Ulcinj not raised prices, which, as stated in the tourism organization, positively reflected on the booking.
In the hotel-tourist company "Great beach" with a capacity of 450 beds, the first guests arrive 25th May. In this company prices are reduced up to 20 percent compared to last year.
Hotel "Mediterranean" who worked the entire year, the price is broken down by ten percent and the hotel "Albatros", which is a gate opened three days ago. Both hotels, as they say in the tourism organization, the first guests are expected these days.
Hotel Otrant is currently closed for renovation, but the tourist organization said that their booking at the level of last year when the hotel during the whole season looking for a bed anymore. Booking better than last year recorded "Dvori Balšića and Palace" Venice ", which were open throughout the year. The Tourist Organization emphasized that the two representative object in the old town down prices for seven to ten per cent.
Unfortunately, as well as last year, Ulcinj offered no hotel "Galeb" and "Lido" which are at the discretion of tourist workers were najsjajniji and the best tourist product. While the "Lido" creepy empty and half-ruined waiting for better times or that Russian investors are completing the paperwork, "Galeb", the symbol of the city, is gone. Neither the foundation stone for a new Seagull whose construction was already supposed to start.
A novelty in the offer does not in Herceg Novi. The largest investor in the municipality, company Vektra Bay, after the privatization of HTP "Boka", announced the construction of new and reconstruction of the existing hotel and the investment of over 60 million, but it remained just promises. Because soon to the Council for Privatisation contract signed annex that will be accurate term dynamics of construction of each building individually, which will not be longer than three years. This means that within the former tourist hotel giant, which has had seven hotels and 1,200 employees this summer will only hotel "Plaza". Service in the former elite hotel now does not meet any level of three stars.
And it is uncertain how it will work this summer hotel "Riviera" in Njivice in which the reconstruction, according to owner-JT Investment, after the privatization invested over 15 million. While the renovated complex opened two years ago, it was last summer, stayed only about 30 guests a day. Owner Richard Portugez announced that they \ 'aim to make the best tourist complex in this part of the coast to meet the high demands of guests from all over Western Europe and the countries of Scandinavia and other markets. "We intend to make this complex destination that guests will visit throughout the The \ ", he said, but it remained only at the level of promises.
Hunguest Hotel San resort "on a hot one of the few that has invested in restructuring and raising the level of hotel services of the privatized facilities. Host this year's season with another renovated facility. This is Villa Mimosa "with 66 rooms, four luxury suites and a new restaurant. Now complex has 330 rooms, three luxury restaurants and 20 luxury bungalows categorized with four stars.
Herceg Novi will greet visitors this summer without a large hotel with five or four stars, meaning that it can not count on visokoplatežne guests, as a small luxury hotel accommodation and visokokategorisani not recommended for this type of guests.
Bar tourist offer can be proud of a new facility with four stars - hotel rezortom "Rose of the winds" in the Grand sand, that the foam of the sea can offer 21 luxury hotels, Mediterranean and national restaurants, sports facilities, balcony painting, children's playground, sandy beach , pools, beach bar with 200 seats, with 100 parking places and mini-zoo.
Jovan Lekic Podgorica businessman, owner of International and Vlastimir nal Golubovic, owner Veleteksa "in the" Rose Winds "are invested 12 million euros. Thus the number of four-star hotel in Bar Municipality rose to three - there are also "Prinses" as part of AD Group Atlas hotels in Bar, and also at the Great sand apart-hotel "Kalamper.
In the area of Bar Riviera, including the Skadar Lake, is currently operating 33 hotels with total capacity of 7100 beds. Between the two seasons, the most important news in the Bar and the hotel was the property-fund division of a single HTP Corals AD AD Atlas Group hotels and AD Trend Corals.
"Gold Coast", located at Cape Ratac in Sutomore, for the new season preparations are still under the old owner-Belgrade "INEX" because they failed the previous tenders for its sale. For Maljevik in Sutomore, sold a few years ago the Russian investor, and still no major investments announced the start of a luxury hotel and tourist complex.

Lack of beds
Kotor

Kotor, a common destination in recent years the world's Cruiser, and further trouble struggling with modest facilities in the hotel accommodation. In this city during the season to 18 hotels, with a total of 1300 beds, of which only two with more capacity and three-star hotel, and hotel \ "Teuta \" in Risan and hotel \ "Vrmac \" in Prčanj.
In private accommodation Makarska has about 2,000 beds. Advisor for the promotion and advertising of the Tourist organization of Kotor Dragana Maslovar, said that although it is a modest capacity in the number of beds, Kotor has a small hotel with very high quality offering.
Some of them are hotels in the old town \ "Cattaro \", \ "Vardar \" 4 \ "Villa Duomo \" with four stars, \ "Mary \" three stars and then \ "Forca Mare \" with five star, \ "Palazzo Radomiri \", \ "Splendid \" with four stars and others.
In addition to numerous visits to the group picnic area of Dubrovnik-Neretva County, Kotor is a favorite destination for high-Cruiser which this season will be in a much larger number.
- MSC Ship Company, which owns the luxurious Cruiser, this season will sail into the port of Kotor, even 27 times. All this indicates that, although the guests staying in the city in all types of accommodations are important to Kotor, at the end of the season does not make a substantial part of prihodovanju. Some providers of accommodation and catering joined the action of the Ministry of Tourism and NOT of Montenegro in a special package tours for guests from the region, giving a discount on its services from 10 to 15 percent. We hope that this will further motivate our guests to vacation in Kotor - said Maslovar.
