호텔 스칼레타

Location: not bad. On the edge of the town but only a few minutes walk from the Roman ampitheatre and 10 mins walk from the city centre. Next door to the nearby convenience store we discovered a basic but cheap and cheerful bar full of friendly local characters, where my group gathered for a beer each evening before going into town. Hotel: it’s rather basic, with dated décor of the fake flowers and random ornaments variety. Not suitable for a romantic weekend away, but is fine for a group of friends. Breakfast: a basic but acceptable buffet: cold meats and cheeses, fruit, bread/pastries, olives, tomatoes, hardboiled eggs and cereals. There were a few issues: in one of the rooms, the air con and fridge didn’t work, we couldn’t work out how to turn the TV on (but that wasn’t a big deal) one of the power points didn’t work and sparks and smoke came out of the hairdryer when it was turned on. The staff quickly sorted the air con and provided a new hairdryer when we mentioned it, but we thought that maybe the electrics generally could benefit from being checked over. In this context, the lack of a fire escape from the top floor was a bit worrying, as was the fact that if someone else has locked the front door you need to use a key in order to get out of the building. At one point I found I was locked in, as I’d left the key upstairs with my room-mate so had to go back up two flights of stairs to get it. The fact that only one key is provided per room (not per guest) is inconvenient if room-mates are coming and going at different times as we were asked to take the key when we went out, rather than leave it behind reception. Staff: the receptionist was friendly and helpful, but the member of staff in charge of the breakfast room was rather scary and told us off for (variously) using too many plates, sitting at the wrong tables, helping ourselves to juice after the 10am deadline and attempting to take our cups of tea upstairs to the room (as there are no tea-making facilities in the rooms). Observations on Pula generally: an attractive little city with interesting architecture and history and a good variety of bars and restaurants. Pleasingly, very few drunk Brits there; it seems to attract an older crowd. There is some graffiti but generally the city is pretty clean and we didn’t see any signs of crime. Most of the Croatians we met (waiters, shopkeepers etc) speak very good English and enjoy using it.

Hotel Scaletta is in a great location, about 3 minutes walk from the amphitheatre and start of the historic city. Parking is a few minutes walk away so its best to drop your bags first. Check in was fabulous, very helpful and friendly and even showed me a video of how to get to the parking after I parked in the wrong place. Our room was a good size with both AC and window shutters and lovely decor and personal touches. There was no kettle (a pain for me as I usually have my first tea at 6AM) although you could get tea and coffee from the restaurant downstairs. We also found the internet connection kept dropping so ended up tethering our mobiles to use instead. Breakfast was outside and down the steps to a room under the hotel, a large and grand location. Breakfast was included in the price and a good start to the day but the choice was more limited than the other hotels on this trip. A good value for money break though.

Great location around 20 minutes from the airport,super friendly staff,the hotel is very clean and the rooms are great,breakfast is buffet style with a good choice of food,hotel is within walking distance of coliseum and town centre.will definitely return.

What to say... the hotel is more like an Italian "pensione" in the sense it's family-run, it's cozy, it's friendly and it's like being in your own flat at the seaside. Plus it's at the doorstep of the Amphitheatre and 5 minutes from the bus station. Lovely staff, so kind, so helpful. Breakfast was fantastic with a great selection of hams, cheeses, fruit, jams etc. The room was lovely and spacious. A couple of things did not work 100% but it did not mind at all. We will definitely choose Scaletta next time we'll be in Pula. Grazie mille per tutto, per la vostra ospitalita' e gentilezza

Piccolo ma comodo hotel, raggiungibile a piedi dalla stazione degli autobus e a due passi dall'anfiteatro. I giovani titolari ti fanno sentire davvero a casa. Camera comoda e spaziosa, anche il bagno della giusta misura non risulta stretto o soffocante. Al momento la colazione è servita nella sala ex ristorante ai piedi della scalinata. Offerta varia tra dolce e salato.

Les avis précédents datent de 2021 pour le plus récent. Malgré un accueil sympathique nous ne pouvons dire que nous avons été satisfaits : la chambre donnant sur la rue est très bruyante, l'accès est malaisé avec des bagages car l'entrée donne sur une rue en escaliers et après il n'y a pas d'ascenseur, le petit déjeuner dans une petite salle est composé principalement d'aliments industriels emballés sous plastique (croissants etc). Autres désagréments qui je pense sont ponctuels mais qui sont tombés sur nous : notre baignoire était sale, avec des poils, la dame du ménage a dû secouer un tapis sans la rincer, le temps de porter nos bagages à l'hôtel nos avons reçu une amende (5 mn), le parking n'est pas tout proche...bref je pense que l'hôtel a connu des jours meilleurs mais il n'est plus au niveau d'un 3*, 2* seraient plus appropriées. Nous avons changé de chambre pour une située à l'arrière au 2eme étage. Mauvaise expérience, il faut revoir la copie car un problème ponctuel peut toujours se produire et nous sommes assez patients mais là nous avons rencontré tout de même trop d'insatisfaction.
