Hotel Pelikan

This is just the nicest traditional place, at the very entrance of Virpazar (Virpazar is very small, so you're anyway never far from places, but this is literally on the doorstep off the bus as well as most departure points for lake tours). The place is a local legend - its original owners were the people who started tourism in Virpazar. Excellent breakfast, lovely service and attentive staff who are happy to provide you with hints & tips about local activities, especially those a bit off the beaten path. The wifi was also quite good (not that I particularly needed it, but a nice plus). The rooms are quite basic but with all the amenities (including AC and a fridge, a massive bonus).

It does get warm in the summer so if you want to keep cool the rec is to keep the wooden shutters closed when the sun is on that side.

Convenient location and really helpful friendly staff ( until he found out I’d book a boat trip with GYG! He had lots to say!) breakfast included and proper duvets on the bed. Mosquito screens.

Without curtains I had to use the shutters to keep out the light but this reduced circulation. There was an AC unit but I couldn’t get it to work. Operator issues most likely!

Most of the trip to this hotel was ok but we had sell the Skatdar Lake boat tour on arrival. He started at 100 Euros each and ended up at 50’butbthen there was 5 Euro add on tax. Probably better getting a joint trip not private. Then I went to big hotel only to find front door was locked at 11.15pm and I had no key!

A hotel right in the center of Virpazar, the taxi transfer from the airport was very comfortable - the driver met us with my name right after the flight. The hospitality is over the top (it's Montenegro!) The room was clean and as on the picture, nothing more, nothing less. Value for money, yes.

The boat tour that we took from the hotel was overpriced (65 euros per person for a 2 hour tour), you can find cheaper from one of the many different providers. The breakfast was okay. The communication was not very clear: when breakfast ends, when was the checkout time.
