A beautiful place with a lot of history, culinary indulgence. The view is fantastic. You can use the hotel shuttle from the parking lot to the hotel; otherwise, the route is approximately 1.5 km long (on foot). The waiters tried hard and were in a good mood despite the occasional big crowd.

We loved our stay here! The place is sparkling clean and new. Our hosts were so attentive and welcoming that we were sorry that we couldn’t stay longer.

Everything is just perfect. The apartment is very comfortable and has all what you need to feel like at home. The view is amazing, gives you a 180 degrees picture of the valley with olive groves and vineyards. Jakov is very accommodating and at your service. He gave us instructions on where to park (btw, parking was included in the price), welcomed us upon arrival. For sure, we'll come back.

Great place for lovers of medieval hill-top towns and truffles. One can enjoy just a stroll through the town and views of surroundings for an hour, can have a great dining experience or stay for days and explore Istria, one of the prettiest and welcoming places on earth. "Medieval" and "hill-top" also mean that you walk a lot on rugged cobblestone, you walk uphill and climb stairs, and "great place" means it's crowded in the high season (summer). Still, one of the better places to escape to from crowded coastal towns, focused primarily on visitors' wallets.

A classic medieval town that was so fun to explore.
A classic medieval town that was so fun to explore. Be sure to visit the cathedral (opened about 10 during our visit) and (carefully) climb the bell tower for a spectacular view of the valley and beyond. We visited in late October when some businesses had closed for the season and others were winding down. We would visit again in September.

Great location in old town.
Great location in old town. Wonderful people and amazing views from the walls and restaurants. Wine and truffle country and free samples were almost too much. Lol
Tiny and hilly old stone streets within a walled city oozing with history.
Our host was gracious, laid back and a pleasure to just chat with.
We would highly recommend.

It's a spectacular location on a hilltop with amazing views all-round of mountainous country including vineyards & olive groves. Delicious and reasonably-priced restaurants at the very top, friendly people, tons of charm. Nearby are several vineyards & the local wines are very nice, and affordable. Easy day trips to Pula, Rovinj, Buzet & others.

This was my first time in Istria.
This was my first time in Istria. We checked out Kozlovic winery, we sampled their delicious wine and had a tour. View is spectacular. Had dinner in Motovun, tried gnocchi with truffles, very tasty! Pictures of the amazing views do not do it justice. Will definitely visit again!

Motovun is lovely little town in the heart of Istria.
Motovun is lovely little town in the heart of Istria. I really liked it. The prices at restaurants in general in comparison to offer are a bit limited. However we managed to find something for ourselves at the end. We missed bakeries. We did not find single one so we travelled to Pazin on our way back home and found amazing bakery.
Perhaps tourism board should create a special list with all possible places providing food and menu of same, all in one place saves from walking especially if one has slight walking disabilities.
Everything else is lovely and look forward returning to Istria
The room was very clean and the patio was a perfect place to watch the world go by. It was very rainy during our stay and that was no problem, this apartment was great to spend time in. Very close to center square. The studio itself is small but very comfortable, great for 1 or 2 people. The bathroom was massive. There is a good uphill walk from the parking to the location, but that is just Motovun. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking. Everything was spotless. I would definitely stay again!
Beautiful apartment; spacious, clean, and comfortable, with a fully equipped kitchen and a stunning view from the bathroom. It has all you need for a long or short stay, and to feel right at home. The location is great, just a 5 minute walk from the center of town, within the old city. Jakov was an excellent host, friendly and responsive, and very helpful during my stay. I highly recommend, and would love to stay again!
Can not say enough praise. It’s a boutique BNB that was over the top. Spacious, pristinely clean, nice decor, outrageous balcony view. Beautiful balcony breakfasts. Gracious host Lorenja can’t do anything else to make it better than what you receive, and enjoy. She has left no stone interned to give all all the luxuries you would wish a B&B could offer. This place is a must if Motovun is your destination.
Lovely experience to stay in a 300 year old stone building, renovated into a cosy and comfortable holiday retreat. Everything one needs to self-cater was provided. A dedicated car park was 70m away. Location was perfect to explore Motovun and surrounding villages. Our host Goran was very generous (gave us complimentary wine, olive oil and home-made brandy) and helpful. Highly recommend this accommodation.
Irene has reated a unique and highly charming experience. You can see many (no exaggeration) successful extra elements that she has put obvious thought into to help her guests feel welcome and comfortable. Fresh ripe fruit waiting on the table, a selection of teas, charming decorating touches and the best views of the valleys surrounding Motovun. She was also very obliging upon check in.
This hotel offers 5 star experience. Amazing. Very polite and nice staff, they offer us transport from parking to hotel for free which was very helpful.
If you want to spend days in Motovun, then Hotel Kaštel should be your choice. Best posible location in this beautiful town, clean and spacious room, nice indoor pool, great breakfast...
This was best hotel on our 2 weeks road trip.
It was perfect, like a dream place. Every detail was just perfect - general spirit, great furnished, lights, candles, coffee machine and millk in the fridge! Wine on the table. Music ♥️ View, place to drink coffee outside on the morning. Eco as well which is not common in Croatia.
The place is beautifully decorated, very cozy, feels more like home than hotel. Because tourists are not allowed to park inside the town, owner drive me to back and forth to my parking place to pick up and drop off the luggage. Free breakfast is also offered.
Beautiful building in a wonderful location perched on top of Motovun in the centre of the village. Helpful with parking and shuttle service from car park to hotel. Hotel staff were kind to chill our own bottle of wine and have it on their beautiful terrace
The house is in a laid-back setting in the greens. Spacious and nicely furnished, with a well-equipped kitchen and a/c on each floor. Also great views to Motovun hill from top floors. 5 mins drive to main road leading to Motovun / Mirna river.
Good starting point for discovering the heart of Istria with stunning view at Motovun. Room and bathroom were bright and clean, aircon did work super well!
Parking in front of the hotel without problems.
Superb location, terrace and view makes this property one of a kind in Motovun. Bed is super comfy, bathroom super clean and kitchen well equipped. We can't wait to visit this place again.
Spacious well equipped character property with a nice balcony to watch the sunset from. Garden delightful to sit in. Steps up to Motovun just across the road. Barbara is a wonderful host.
Perfect location with great access to Fakin winery. Motovun was nice to visit but Brkač was better to stay in. Hosts were extremely hospitable and responsive with recommendations.
Apartment was clean and spacious. WiFi worked well. Easy to access key locker (though need cellular data). Parking at bottom of stairs. The price was very economical.
Rich breakfast buffet, comfy beds, excellent staff, great sauna. 15-minute walk to the old city centre, view from the hotel, restaurant and sauna is amazing.
Right in the middle of Motovun, near Mario Andretti's birth home, close to everything (small town), owner responsive/gracious/friendly, comfortable bed
