Boutique Hotel Ruzmarin SPA and Garden by Aycon

"Perfect boutique stay, with a luxurious feel to the whole visit. Staff are impressive, going out of their way to help with any query or wish we had including helping to book taxis and also making sure they had a particular menu item available for us when requested. The room was kept to a proper cleanliness standard, and the bed was a comfortable sleep. No issues with noise, as the location is slightly more up in the mountains which gives another advantage with a great view looking down into the valley. We opted to have meals in their restaurant for most of their stay, with the food being spectacular. The veal is mouthwatering, and the steak was perfectly cooked too. Also got to enjoy time in their spa facilities with the steam room, sauna and hot tub- again all kept well maintained. The pool area is lovely, with soft background music and plenty of sunbeds around. Overall, a fabulous stay which was good value, would highly recommend and I hope to come again!"

"I honestly don’t know where to start — we had the most incredible stay at Hotel Ruzmarin from start to finish! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the hotel manager and the wonderful staff, who were so welcoming, friendly and attentive. They even took our cases to our room, which was absolutely perfect. We had a beautiful balcony, a huge and incredibly comfortable double bed, and everything was spotless. The cleanliness throughout the hotel was exceptional. The hotel itself is absolutely breathtaking. The decor is beautiful, the facilities are fantastic, but what truly makes the experience is the staff. We have to give a very special thank you to Ivica, who was exceptional throughout our entire stay. He took such great care of us all week and nothing was ever too much trouble. He is genuinely one of the kindest people we met and an absolute credit to Hotel Ruzmarin. The food at the hotel is exceptional, the variety from breakfast to dinner is amazing and the taste, presentation and of course service was all flawless. It was also my birthday during our stay, and the staff went above and beyond by surprising me with a huge birthday cake and making such a lovely fuss. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made the day even more special. ❤️ The location is perfect — peaceful, calming and quiet, while still being only around a 10-minute taxi ride from the centre of Budva. We also walked into Budva centre a few times, which took around 30 minutes. Most of the walk is downhill and the views along the way are beautiful, so we actually really enjoyed it. Montenegro completely exceeded all of our expectations, and we honestly cannot wait to come back. Thank you to everyone at Hotel Ruzmarin for making our stay so memorable. It’s the little gestures and kindness that mean so much to us as visitors, and you made us feel incredibly welcome from beginning to end. Without a doubt, the BEST stay! We will continue to recommend Hotel Ruzmarin to everyone and cannot wait to return. Thank you, Sam and Demi 🇲🇪❤️"

"We stayed at the hotel for 11 nights, bed and breakfast. Our children (3 and 7) absolutely loved the pool, and the room was big enough for the 4 of us to share. The food was great, in beautiful surroundings. The hotel staff were so friendly and welcoming, especially after I had an accident at a nearby attraction. They went to buy crutches and pain relief for me, which was above and beyond. Taxis are hit and miss, try to use the ones recommended by the hotel, but you cannot pre book - most are contactable on WhatsApp."
