This was a great place to stay. I enjoyed my stay thoroughly. The place is very clean and comfortable. It’s very close to the bus station and everything is in walking distance. The management was extremely kind when I had a medical emergency. They looked after me and helped me in going to the hospital emergency by taxi. Although I was fine after the doctor’s visit, the fact that the hotel staff helped me so much in feeling secure at a difficult time is highly commendable. I thank them all for that. If I go to Rijeka again, I’ll definitely stay at Botel Marina.

The botel is a nice stay if you like the vibe of sleeping in a boat. Staff was nice and helpful. The overall standard is not great but it’s definitely okay.

Something unique spending a night on a boat, however; the steps attached to side of the boat did make alot of noise at night.

Unique experience, great location!
This was a cool experience! It's a historic ferry, it is not first class but it's something different! The boat is docked right across from some great restaurants so the location is perfect. The breakfast is pretty good, nice buffet. I would stay there again!

Wonderful breakfast. Close to bus station. Great place to drink and wait out a passing storm. Very helpful staff. Remember, it is a metal boat and everything echoes around and about, so careful what noises you make or what you say loudly! Great beds. Would gladly return next trip.

Novelty hotel in a great location!
This hotel is in the very centre of Rijeka! Staff were incredibly friendly and would stay here again if visiting Rijeka. The only small issue is the lack of the light that reached the room due to only have two very small windows.

Great location of a boat-hotel!
The hotel is actually a boat! Great location (right on the water), one block away from the city's pedestrian area, with restaurants, shops, entertainment, and historical sites within steps. Public parking lot is right outside the hotel, which came very handy. The room is very basic, but clean. There is a small TV, free Wifi, but no air conditioner, refrigerator, or microwave. Breakfast was included and consisted of choice of eggs, cold cuts, pastries, juices, coffee and tea. The hotel offers you a 10% discount on a dinner in the hotel's restaurant. I strongly recommend against using this restaurant. The food was ok, but the service was the sloppiest and slowest I have experienced in a long time. There are plenty of much better restaurants all over the city, right outside the hotel. That being said, we had a very nice stay overall and I would recommend this hotel to others.

Ideally located on the waterfront close to shops and bus station. Rooms were spotlessly clean. Bed was comfortable. Booked two double rooms slightly different layouts but both adequate. Had our evening meal in the restaurant, travel companion was very impressed with the cabonara. Would recommend for anyone who is looking for budget rate accommodation but of a higher standard than most. Would definitely stay here again

Comfortable and convenient
Though the room was small and lacked abundant table space for our stuff, a remote for the TV, or amenities beyond the basic hand soap and body wash, it was actually a pretty decent stay. The bed was comfortable, and we slept well since it was quiet with gentle rocking. The front desk person told us that it only gets rocky if there are high winds; we were on the same level as the front desk - A level. The shower was spacious and great with awesome water pressure and temperature control. It was arguably the best shower we've had in Europe! The wifi worked well. Also, the location can't be beat. It was less than a 5-minute walk to Old Town (with restaurants and clubs) or the bus station and less than a 10-minute walk to the train station. This hotel provides a great basic hotel as everything was super clean. Great for a short stay! We would stay here again.

The hotel is well located, right near the centre of town. We chose it because we were travelling by bus and it's very close to the central bus station.
