Barbara Piran Beach Hotel

Location was fantastic. Easy 15min walk into Piran along the coast path. Hotel is right on the seafront so you are just feet from the sea. Staff all very friendly. Room cleaned every day. Maintenance was also good. The shower head fell off our shower which we reported at breakfast and by the time we got back to the room after breakfast it waa already fixed. Free beach towel service every day. Left luggage storage which is always good.

Good location. It’s only 20 min walk to Piran by the marvellous path along the sea. Friendly staff who is really trying to resolve many of your problems in hotel. We liked the beach. There weren’t so many people so we could simply rent ease a sun bad with umbrella(7+7 euros per day) or a cabana (30 euros per day). Even if you don’t rent anything they give you a towel for free and you can just stay on the beach. Parking: there aren’t many places and they don’t reserve it. We were lucky to stay on the parking near the hotel (21 euros per day)otherwise they propose parking anywhere on a distance. Breakfast: every day the same, but it was always tasty and from fresh and selected products.

Although it was kind of hard to find, the hotel is in a lovely location overlooking the water. Our room was nice and had a balcony which also overlooked the water. We had a delicious cocktail in a lounging area and played games before dinner. I can't remember dinner at the hotel but breakfast was very good. My friend found it easy to walk on a path to the town and to church. For me the hotel offered a shuttle ride to their sister hotel in downtown Piran. They also picked us up when we were ready to go back to our hotel.

The accommodation was excellent; the rooms were clean and serviced daily by a friendly cleaning lady. All staff members were consistently professional, approachable, and willing to assist with a smile. Breakfast is served buffet-style and offers a wide variety, including fresh fruit, smoothies, bread, hams, cheeses, olives, yogurts, desserts, as well as various types of coffee and tea. (Well, there really is a lot to choose from!) There is also a hotel parking lot, which made transportation very convenient. I highly recommend this establishment.

I chose Barbar Piran Beach Hotel for its proximity to the beach and wasn't disappointed! The water is literally just outside the hotel and easily accessible. But be warned that the beach is a stone beach (not sand). I didn't do my research and so I didn't properly prepare the kiddos for stones. But they still enjoyed getting into their swimsuits and playing in the water. The rooms we stayed in were very compact, but had all the necessities. The kids loved having a balcony that allowed them to go outside and have fresh air whenever they wanted it. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of options to choose from: baked goods, meats, cheeses, veggies, cereal, and yoghurt, as well as several fruit juices. It's about a 15-20 minute walk into Piran proper, along a lovely cliff-side path. We walked back from Piran to the hotel in the evening and were able to witness the sunset over the ocean, which was just lovely.
