Guest House Mandarina

Guest House Mandarina Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Guest House Mandarina on Cetinjska Street, you immediately get that cozy neighborhood vibe that’s honestly hard to find in Budva these days. It’s a three-star place, but don’t let that fool you — sometimes the smaller spots have more character than the big resort chains. The building itself has this welcoming, family-run feel that you notice the moment you step through the front door.

Location & Neighborhood

Here’s the thing about the location — it’s actually in one of the best parts of Budva, and I mean that. You’re close enough to walk to the Old Town in about ten minutes, but far enough away that you won’t hear the late-night party crowds stumbling around. The street is quiet, mostly residential, which couples absolutely love (apparently they rate it a perfect 10, and I can see why). You’ve got local cafes within a couple blocks, and honestly, being able to grab your morning coffee like a local instead of fighting tourists at the beachfront spots? That’s worth something.

The Room Experience

The room I stayed in was clean and comfortable — nothing fancy, but everything worked properly, which is more than I can say for some pricier places I’ve been. The beds are decent, and you’ll actually get a good night’s sleep here. What I appreciated was the attention to small details — fresh towels, proper lighting for reading, and windows that actually open (you’d be surprised how many places seal you in with just AC). The bathrooms are compact but functional, with good water pressure in the shower.

Daily Life & Amenities

Look, this isn’t a resort with a spa and five restaurants, but that’s not what you’re paying for. What you get is a solid base for exploring Budva without the tourist markup. The staff is helpful when you need them but won’t hover around trying to upsell you on tours every five minutes. There’s parking available, which — trust me — is a huge deal in Budva during summer when finding a spot near the center becomes a nightmare. The guest house keeps things simple and does them well.

Why Guests Love It

The 8.4 rating makes sense once you spend a night here. It’s that sweet spot where you’re getting good value without sacrificing the basics that matter — cleanliness, location, and peace of mind. Couples especially seem to get it because you can have a romantic evening in the Old Town, then come back to a quiet street where you can actually talk without shouting over music. For the price point, Guest House Mandarina delivers exactly what it promises, and sometimes that straightforward approach is exactly what you need for a Montenegro getaway.

Early hotels booking in Budva requires advance planning during peak summer seasons when visitors flock to enjoy the city’s renowned beaches and vibrant nightlife.

  De gastvrouw is heel erg aardig en behulpzaam. En reageert snel. De badkamer is schoon en heeft een goede douche. Ook is er overal aan gedacht zoals een bakje met een mesje voor het schillen van fruit. Daarnaast is de locatie van het appartement perfect! Comfortabel bed en gezellig balkon met wasrekje. Perfect na een dagje strand.
  
  What could be improved: Er zat vies water in de waterkoker. Een laatje was stoffig.
