Villa Brandestini

My fiancé and I are on a eurotrip, we were driving to Pula from Prague. Keep in mind this hotel has a small staff. If you check in after a certain time, they will have to leave you instructions to enter. The location is perfect. However, the shower was stopped up, the air conditioning ran but didn’t cool. The breakfast, is at a restaurant not far from the accommodations and was very good. The parking is ridiculously hard to find, do not recommend. We parked on the street because we couldn’t locate the parking and got a ticket. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend.

Run away from this hotel. One of the worse hotel I have ever done in my life. If you want to sleep at night, which seems to me the basic function of an hotel, then run away from this place. It is located in the middle of the most noisy street of Pula and the isolation of the windows and walls is useless. Until midnight the whole city is bellow your window eating and playing music. And after midnight, when shops and restaurants are closed, you have every 5 minutes a group of drunk people shouting and waking you up. Add to that that the bed is for 1 person and half and not 2 and that for all that poor service you pay nearly 250€ per night and you get one of the worse hotel ever seen. Do not trust comments telling you “in the center of the city but calm”. This is far from being true. The minimum we would have appreciated would be a warn from the hotel in the description about the noise so to be able to choose correctly another place. Finally, the staff is incredibly bad. 3 examples: the only solution they had for the noise was to ask us if we had closed the window correctly… which of course had always been the case. The only restaurant they could advice was the one next to the hotel with which they have a deal. And finally we asked if it was possible to swim in Brijuni and they thought it was not possible which was wrong. This quality of service and of the rooms is not acceptable for such a price.

I spent 2 nights at the Villa and was very impressed. It was difficult to get to by car. The navigator did not help. Park on a side street and walk to hotel, they will help direct you to the parking area. The rooms are comfortable but be ready to walk some stairs. The location is very central and easy walk to most of the sites.

Zentrales Hotel in Pula

Charming, comfortable, quiet hotel with convenient location to City Center. Nice rooftop private patio. Friendly, helpful staff!!! Included nice breakfast. Room was quiet for being in busy area. I would recommend.

We loved the staff, and the room was well appointed and sparkling clean. It was well located to access the sites -- half a block to the amphitheater with a nice view of the ruins from our room window, very near San Giusto and Piazza della Borso -- yet located off a quiet street in a safe neighborhood. My only cavil: the room was quite small and the bathroom cramped. I'd return to this place again and again, however, because I found the staff so very obliging.

Great location and nice place. Staff friendly. Aircon in ruins was a little temperamental and bathroom/shower floor was super slippy when wet.
