Hotel Laurin is in a fantastic location—everything is walkable, with plenty of restaurants and shopping nearby. The breakfast was delicious with options for everyone, and the staff were super friendly and welcoming. The gym is small, but perfect for getting in a good workout. My room was clean, the bed was very comfortable, and I had a great night’s sleep. Overall, an excellent stay—I highly recommend this hotel!

Does what it says on the tin. Central location overlooking the waterfront, excellent roof terrace with a somewhat strange design swimming pool, nearby secure and spacious parking (needs to be pre-booked and it’s EUR30/night), friendly receptionists dispensing good advice and good breakfasts. Recommended.

The hotel is very nice and has an excellent location overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and the port. It is surrounded by greenery. It is at the same time very central to all attractions in the city. The bus stop to Portofino is 50m away. The hotel itself has all necessary amenities. Staff is friendly. Room is spacious. The hotel has a pool on the terrace which has gorgeous views. The breakfast is excellent with a wide selection of options. The hotel has a small gym which we tried. I highly recommend the hotel.
