Apartments in Ohrid

This hotel is beautifully situated on the shores of Lake Ohrid. If you have a lakeside view room, then you will not get tired of waking up in the morning and looking out of the window. The room we stayed in was generously proportioned and tidy, with ample space for luggage and relaxing. One slight negative point was that our bathroom only had a bath tub, and not a shower. The breakfast at the hotel was nice, with a range of cold meats, cheeses and hot filled pastries. The coffee from the bar was actually quite good too. The hotel has a nice swimming pool, with views of the lake and a small foreshore with a pebble beach. Unfortunately, the municipality of Ohrid, which is responsible for emptying the rubbish bins had not done so for some time, so there was a lot of litter down at the beach. On the plus side, within 12 hours of reporting this to the reception, the beach was lovely and clean again. Parking was a bit of a hassle, and I got the impression that people from Ohrid drive up to the hotel, which is out of town, in order to use the beach (as there is no real beach in central Ohrid), so during the day, it can be really hard to find a parking spot. If you're not very confident parallel parking or reversing, then park in the lower car park and walk a little. Although it's not in the centre of town, I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. It's probably needs a bit of love and attention in places, but it's charming and the staff members were very helpful.

When another property cancelled last minute, I booked us for one night here. I'm so very glad that I did! From the moment we arrived we were treating like friends and valued guests. Our host parked our car in the narrow but secure driveway (and also offered us street parking, if that had been our preference), offered a welcome drink and helped with the bags. He lent us a travel book and a map to use during our stay. Our room was clean, comfortable and bright and the shower had lots of hot water. We were able to do laundry (for an extremely small fee) and they even hung the clothes on the line to dry so that we could enjoy our time in town, without worrying about coming back to do the laundry! The location was perfect, on a quiet street, just steps from the lake's promenade. We didn't have to rush in the morning to move the car while we enjoyed some final touring in the morning and were even given a gift upon departure.
