Hotel Tartini - Piran, Slovenia     

We chose the Hotel Tartini after seeing and rejecting the absolutely vile state of the hostel that we had booked. That's another story. The triple room we had was a decent value, and was very large and clean. The bathroom definitely could benefit from some updating, but was still completely functional. We didn't notice any issues with mold or anything. The breakfast was okay, but not really anything special. The hotel staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They gave good advice for restaurants and packed up a breakfast for us when we had to leave early our last morning. Parking in the municipal lot is included with the price of the room. Cars are only allowed into Piran for unloading, and they will tow your car if you leave it where you're not supposed to. The town provides a free shuttle bus between the parking lot and the square, so its really not a problem to get luggage in

We liked this hotel, primarily for 2 reasons - the amazing roof terrace where they serve drinks from 6-12 and the friendly staff. The roof terrace was a perfect vantage point for the square and was lit romantically at night. I'm surprised more people don't use it. We were happy with the other aspects of the hotel e.g sea view, balcony, reasonable breakfast, OK room size. We were glad we chose this over the Hotel Piran purely for our secret vantage point over the square
