My friend and i stayed at this hotel as we could not get any space anywhere else nearer to the coast. We had absolutely no idea about the location - and what a surprise we had when we got there! Motovun is the most amazing little place and i shall definately visit again. The hotel itself was ok. On arrival... more

Wow, somebody has really spent some money on this place, recently. The hotel and the rooms were spotless; the new 'wellness' centre with spa, swimming pool and gardens is a great place to chill out after a hard day's sightseeing - or, in our case, cycling. When the cycle instructions say, go to the top of the hill, they really... more

My wife and I stayed here for on night while driving through Istria. First: location. A castle on top of a mountain! How cool is that! Beautiful views from the castle out over the valleys. We just relaxed at the cafes all afternoon and evening watching the sun go down from the castle walls. We got really lucky as a... more

We arrived at the hotel before 6pm but were told that the person who brought luggage to the hotel had already left! We just had one piece of luggage each but it was not easy to pull over the unpaved road and the cobblestones. Car had to be parked quite a distance away. The last part under the arch was... more

It is certainly worth paying the little bit extra for this room - it is huge and you have access to a small balcony where you can sit in the sunshine and enjoy the view over the old town square. The hotel has... more

My girlfriend flew from New York and I from Edinburgh and met at Venice airport. Renting a car we drove to Motovun to the Kastel Hotel which we booked by phone a month before. We arrived exhausted and had to drag our luggage up the hill as the hotel has no call box to have them come fetch you. The... more

We spent one night at the Kastel in August 2007. The hotel is placed in an old but recently renovated dark red building on top of a hill. Before we decided for a room, we took a closer look at the “Suite”, which is a deluxe double room, and the “apartment”, consisting of a bedroom and an extra living room.... more

Stayed here for the night on our travels in June. We stayed in the deluxe double room with balcony ( the only one with balcony in hotel). Room was lovely and very comfortable. Views of courtyard dining below and chestnut trees. Food is very good and breakfast was enjoyable. Motovun is a lovely old town and we enjoyed exploring it... more

Hotel Kastel ist ein prachtvoller Rennaissance-Palast, der liebevoll renoviert wurde. Besonders haben wir den Sonnenuntergang auf der Terasse - und... more
