BO Hotel Palazzo

Great location but room was work out ( terrible bed) and bathroom wasn't clean

This impressive-looking hotel is situated on the Porec waterfront and most rooms (like ours) have fabulous sea views, spoilt only by the large heap of rubbish someone had left on the roof of lower part of the hotel. Be aware that there is quite a lot of noise from the bars and restaurants along the port, which can be disturbing at night and will likely be much worse in high season than mid-June. Our room was enormous (think it was two rooms knocked into one) and looked freshly painted but the furniture was cheap-looking and a bit scruffy and it felt quite stark and empty - no sense of comfort or style. There wasn’t a plug by the desk, unless you pulled it out and reached behind (not easy). Staff were very helpful. Good breakfast. There’s a lovely outside pool but the sun loungers had cigarette burns on the covers. My complaints are minor overall but these small details spoil what could otherwise be a real 5 star experience.

This is a lovely hotel on the peninsula. The room was really nice with a good powerful shower. The breakfast is plentiful with loads of lovely fresh fruit. The restaurant staff are all really friendly and lovely and attentive. It is a shame this restaurant is under used as we had some lovely meals. The lamb chops in pistachio and honey crust and the seafood spaghetti were very nice. Sitting on the terrace watching the sunsets were amazing. The weather could have been better as we had quite a lot of rain. Suggest visiting later in the year in June or July

A beautiful hotel with a stunning outlook. Easy to get to from bus. Shuttle to car parking a great service

Great location , very convenient for walking around the old city. Parking outside of town with no signs or directions was bad!! Transportation was quick and efficient to parking area tho.

The Hotel BO Palazzo is a classic and classy hotel, dating back almost 100 years with historic photographs hanging in the lobby. It was completely renovated not long ago, and is tasteful, elegant, and gracious with a yellow and white color scheme décor and large crystal chandeliers. It has a wonderful waterfront location at the corner end of the marina pier, with direct south and west facing sunset views, and is within very easy walking distance to the charming old town of Porec, the rest of town, and the parklike waterfront with shaded walking path, beaches, and beach bars & cafes. The suite in which we stayed was larger than my first two apartments after college – the photos on the website, as much as we pored over them to determine which room to prioritize to reserve, do not do this room or, presumably, any other rooms justice. The suite has solid burnished wood paneling, windows on three sides, a large balcony facing the water, a bedroom with a sliding wooden door, a large living area, a large formal dining area with a very large table, an office area, and two full baths. The lighting is chandeliers and chandelier sconses as well as lamps. It’s beautiful and is probably one of the nicest and most elegant rooms in which we’ve ever stayed. The only improvements would be to : 1. Add shade onto the balcony terrace via unbrellas (without a sun umbrella, you could really only go out there in early morning and late day; 2. Replace the jacuzzi tub in the en suite bathroom with a real walk in shower with a ceiling mounted showerhead and floor to ceiling glass doors. The tub is a nice idea but you cannot use it as a shower, so two people staying in the room lose the convenience and time saving benefit of the two full baths and cannot get ready simultaneously. The breakfast buffet is wonderful, with a broad scope of traditional Croatian and more English / American options – a good assortment of fruits, vegetables, and pastries; exceptional gluteny fresh breads; terrific melon; and well made tasty omelettes. The only non 5 star aspect is the juice wall dispenser. Seating is on the terrace by the water. Car parking is at the Isabella Valamar Hotel lot; the Hotel BO Palazzo picks you up and drops you off in a van; it’s a 8 minute or so ride. Parking is safe. The parking lot is near the large community athletic and fitness center; you can buy a short term pass and use the very good gym also. The Palazzo’s gym is not really usable except, perhaps, in the winter as it is on the ground floor, facing west, is very small, has just a few pieces of equipment, and is unbearably hot and humid as the glass windows and skylights suck in all the sun and the humidity of the pool piles on. Thanks especially to Kosta, the van driver; Marija and Matej at Front Desk Reception; and Ines at breakfast.

A perfect escape. Staff, service, facilities, food and room all first class. A beautifully romantic base for exploring Porec and surrounding areas. Transfers from the main car park in Porec were handled professionally and the location is perfect.

It is well located in the corner of Porec bay.The service is friendly.The rooms are spacious.The swimming pool is small.The wifi is almost inexistent.Becouse of Porec’s new rules you cannot reach the Hotel using your own car.You need to park it almost 1,5 km far way and an Hotel’s van pick you up.
