We had a lovely time in Rovinj, and our spot in Residence Porta Antica was really perfect to explore and enjoy the town. Our room was right over the reception desk, on the main strip of restaurants along the water in town. The kitchenette was also very handy for our stay, making it easy to have our own breakfasts and cook a dinner at home, but still enjoy the waterfront at night and have a tiramisu in the old town for dessert. In a different city, you'd expect more for the price, but hey, it's hard to beat a perfect location in a charming touristy town on the adriatic.

This room was charming and in a great location. It is, however, very small, with no real place to sit, except one antique desk chair. The employee who checked us in was very friendly and helpful.

One note about the location -- it is GREAT in terms of being very close to the waterfront and right in the heart of town, with many restaurants and shops only steps away. One aspect of being in the center of things, though, is that it is not quiet. If you are an \"early to bed\" person, there was live music being played, seemingly right outside our window. It didn't go on terribly late, but was loud while it lasted.

The other thing to be aware of is that parking in Rovinj is a real challenge. The hotel recommended a parking lot, and offered to pick us up there to take us to the hotel, but that lot was full and we ended up parking some distance away. We figured it out, and searching for parking seems to be part of the Rovinj experience, but we found it confusing to navigate.

All in all, we were very happy with the Porto Antica.

Charming spot with view on the water with a small balcony. The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming. The shower is extremely small and water tank also small, so not good for a large person and you will run out of hot water quickly. They offer a voucher for breakfast at the Hotel Adriatic which is fabulous—-but be sure to ask the cost, as it was pricey and we only found out AFTERWARDS the cost. It is above a cafe/restaurant, so it may be loud in the high season. Lovely staff!

Top Five I’ve ever stayed in

We had an amazing stay at the Residence Porta Antica! We called the hotel when we were unsure with parking and Claudia came in her cart to show us where to park and then drive us to the hotel! She was such a pleasure and so friendly! She gave us a warm welcome and recommended several restaurants, as well as ice cream places! She allowed us to keep our bags in the hotel after checkout because we were going to explore Rovinj before leaving the city. The room itself was stunning. The vibe of the hotel was beautiful and having the ocean right outside the window was perfect. We could not recommend this place enough! Great staff, great location, great rooms!

Quaint Hotel near Tito Plaza

This is fabulously convenient on the south side of the Rovinj peninsula. From the principal car park, it is a 7-10 minute walk with a rolling suitcase. Staff was very friendly and our room had a lovely view of harbor. Bed was reasonably comfortable. Kitchenette was nice. Rovinj in the late fall (late November) is pretty dead - heads up. Very few dining establishments were open. (again, why having the kitchenette was so nice.)

Claudia was fantastic & very helpful & accommodating as the front desk person. We called her when we arrived & she came immediately to get us.The area where the hotel is does not allow cars but she picked us up in an electric cart and showed us where safe parking for our car was. The hotel is actually older apartments - not fancy at all but comfortable and in an excellent location. It can get quite noisy at night with street sweepers and equipment but we did not let that bother us. A delightful town, lots to see, everything is walkable. Dining along the waters edge was lovely. She recommended a lovely restaurant named Sidro with local dishes (their Cevapcici was great) - we enjoyed it so much we ate there both nights. We would definitely go to Rovinj again.

A fantastic hotel and service

We really loved our stay. I traveled with my parents and my infant son and my dad was extremely worried about parking (notoriously difficult in Rovinj). He needn't have worried - Ana helped us find parking and picked us up as well as our luggage with her electric car and took us all the way to the hotel entrance. We later saw some people dragging their suitcases on cobbled streets and felt sorry for them and at the same time we were very thankful that our experience was so pleasant. The apartment was amazing with views of the sea and we also had a wonderful breakfast at a nearby hotel (you get vouchers to use there). We will definitely stay here again and recommend this place as well as the owners warmly to all the future guests.

Cute, centrally located hotel

Residence Porta Antica is a cute, older-style hotel with a classic bed and breakfast feel (though no breakfast). Centrally located in Rovinj’s adorable old town right along the harbor, the hotel was right next to a plethora of restaurants and bars. We were also able to walk to a number of beautiful beaches in the area. Claudia was a fantastic host. She met us promptly when we arrived in Rovinj with an electric car to carry our bags into the old city. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Rovinj I highly recommend this place!

She was lovely at check-in and made us feel welcome. The room was beautiful and absolutely unique — gorgeous views of the water, old stone walls and wooden ceiling beams, and a large comfortable bed. It was very romantic and not like a generic hotel, and we’d love to stay here again if we come back to Rovinj.

Old World Charm in Rovinj

It was amazing!!! Our room was filled with charm and character, and we felt that we were truly in a special place. The location was perfect for dining, swimming, and site seeing. We took a ferry to Venice, and the boat picked us up steps away from our room! I would definitely recommend Porta Antica for a stay in Rovinj.

Exceptional accomodations by the sea.

We stayed in the annex building with a sea view. Beautiful stone building with timbered ceiling. Very clean, comfortable bed, bathroom and all amenities were wonderful. Is in town center, so is very convenient to everything, but can be noisy. (closed windows solves that.) Special mention about the host, EXCELLENT in every way! Highly recommend. We hope to come back!!

What a comfortable place in a super location. We had the room on the first floor (what would be second floor to Americans) overlooking the promenade and the bay. With its own balcony for morning breakfast or some wine and cheese later. Room has a nice sitting area, kitchenette, eating table. Delightful staff; will pick up and deliver to the public parking lot.

Charm and Location

My husband and I stayed here for six nights, on the Rovinj leg of our Croatian honeymoon. We did not want to leave this place. Rovinj is a truly romantic town, and Porta Antica embodies all the romance of the surrounding area. It is situated right on the water in the center of old town, and one can walk easily to the beaches of Golden Cape park, or to any of the charming restaurants or bars in Old Town. we had a room with a small kitchenette that faced a little alleyway over a shop. There was a little noise, from the nearby club, but nothing that ear plugs couldn't help. The room was decorated in a sweet, rococo manner that added to the feeling that you were in another time. The bed was a little hard, by American standards, but not so bad that it interrupted sleep (and I have bursistus in one hip and arthritis in the other! Haha!) The kitchenette had everything needed to make a nice egg and truffle patè breakfast, and a fridge to keep our sparkling Istrian wine (from a local winery) chilled. Claudia, the manager we think, was extremely kind, and picked us, along with our baggage, up on the outskirts of town, and she drove us back after checking out. My only regret is not staying longer!

Quaint old building in quaint old town

If you are looking for an authentic, old building in the old part of the town and on the water, this should be your destination. The building is old but superbly renovated. The kitchen was well appointed. Rooms are a generous size, with high ceilings and bright. The reception staff was extremely helpful with directions to various things. The hotel is right in the middle of what the town has to offer. Just beware that the authenticity of the old building in the old part of town means a) about a 350 meter walk from the closest place to park a car so travel lightly or be prepared to drag suitcases along cobblestone roads and b) again travel lightly because rooms are up a fairly steep staircase and at least in our room, #4, the bed is in a loft accessed through a narrow spiral staircase. None of this was of concern to us because we wanted that authenticity. But accessibility may be an issue for some.

Character property right on the harbour front

Staff were a standout. Always welcoming, accommodating, and helped me plan the next leg of my trip with taxi transfer to the airport. I stayed in a 2 level loft suite with kitchen, dining room, living room, and loft bedroom that was a bit dark but full of character. Totally equipped with everything you need including cutlery, dishes, shampoo, towels, extra linens, etc... Would definitely recommend this place.

One of the best places in Rovinj

The town is beautiful and Ms. Claudia from Porta Antica hotel was very friendly, welcoming, helpfull and always smiling. We highly recommend this place to anyone traveling to Rovinj. Porta Antica hotel is an authentic mediteranian place. It's stone walls give the place a special charm but at the same time you can expect modern updates that will make anyone feel comfortable. It's right on the water with an amazing view of the harbour and very cosy. We'll be back here one day for sure.

The room was small, but I was only there to sleep and for the price, it was just aso id expexted. It is close to the train and ferry station so for easy travel and there are tons of restaurants, cafes and shops all around. The staff were amazingly helpful and friendly. My only complaint was that the bed was quite firm, which is not my preference, but fine for 2 nights.

The perfect apartment in the perfect beach town

We absolutely love Rovinj and ADORE Porta Antica. This was our third visit to the area, and our third time staying in this hotel. The location is fantastic, overlooking the port and central to everything in the old town. We love having the ability to prepare meals in the room, and as a young couple traveling with a family, it's nice to be able to put our son to bed and still enjoy some relaxing quiet time in the living room. With the windows open, you can hear the live street music performances and watch the action going on below. Claudia and her team at Porta Antica are incredibly friendly and welcoming and the restaurant recommendations were superb. I can't speak highly enough of this place
