Lovely boutique hotel great view of adractic!

A Beautiful surprise hotel was clean with modern rooms. The staff was very welcoming and helpful with any questions . Great location for touring about and so relaxing to come home to. Love sleeping with open window being lulled to sleep by sounds of the sea. The restaurant was excellent so enjoying eating on patio over looking the sea!

Luxe sur mer

Set on a little patch of seaside paradise, it's hard to imagine a more idyllic vacation spot. From design to service to food quality, the Rivalmare is well worth the stay. Do the penthouse suite if you can, its one of those little luxuries that's absolutely worth it.

Great start for a new hotel.

A lovely welcome from friendly, well trained staff who spoke excellent English. Special thanks to Paula the manager and Thaomir and Mate. The hotel had only been opened for two weeks and everything was running perfectly. Hotel design is very modern and mainly white but with some subtle pastel colours. Bed was incredibly comfortable and we were only the second guests to stay in the room. Food was excellent with great breakfast buffet and excellent coffee, though you have to pay extra for eggs at breakfast. Our only two niggles were that the shower is over the bath and not in a separate cubicle (and this seems rather a dated idea) and we didn't like the music that was constantly played. The type of music changed throughout the day, but was 'computer generated' andwe could have done without it. The sound of conversation and the sea are enough for us. Met Roberto, the owner, who welcomed our comments but I have a feeling that the music won't change..........it was turned down, however, at our request!! A great stay and Novigrad is a great little town

Tudo muito bom exceto o problema do ar condicionado que no terceiro dia virou aquecedor e a noite ficava insuportável o calor. A solução proposta foi abrirmos a varanda porém com vizinhos fumantes e os mosquitos ficava inviável… Também não entendi porque fizeram questão de não dar late checkout para cliente Gold Experia, visto que o hotel estava vazio e exigiram saída às 11:00h. No mais tudo certo.
