Hotel Arupinum — Hotel in Grad Rovinj

My wife and I have just spent two weeks at the Hotel Arupinum, although most guests seem to stay for only a few days. It is a lovely small 20 room hotel. Nenad, Martina and Ana on reception were all extremely helpful from the moment we arrived, and nothing was too much trouble for the staff.||We had a modern spacious bedroom, with a large double bed (ideal given the hot weather), a table and two chairs, a relatively small wardrobe for a two week stay (with the room safe at the bottom), relatively little drawer space but several places to store clothes that do not need to hang up, and a large TV with about 7 English channels. There was a small balcony overlooking the swimming pool, also with a small table and two more chairs.|The bathroom had a bath, shower, sink and toilet. Flannels, hand towels, bath towels and pool towels, dressing gowns and slippers were all changed regularly. There were plenty of small bottles of shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and body lotion, plus vanity sets. ||At breakfast there were 3 different juices, prosecco, still and sparkling waters, teas and coffees. Food for visitors with a British taste included yoghurts, fresh fruit, various cereals, breads and pastries. There were other food choices for continental tastes.||We ate lunch at the hotel on several occasions and the food was excellent.||The swimming pool is large for the size of the hotel and is a constant depth (about 1.4m), ideal for weak swimmers and good swimmers alike. It was cleaned frequently while we were there. There were about 15 sunloungers in the hotel’s small grounds.||The acid test about any hotel is - would we return to the hotel if we came on holiday here again. The answer is a...

From the moment we arrived, we were truly impressed by the warmth and professionalism of the entire in-house team. The front desk staff greeted us with genuine smiles and made the check-in process smooth and welcoming. They were incredibly helpful, answering every question with patience and offering great local tips.

The service throughout our stay was top-notch. Every staff member we encountered went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Whether it was a special request or just a friendly interaction in the hallway, we felt genuinely cared for.

Housekeeping deserves a special shoutout – our room was spotless every day, and the attention to detail did not go unnoticed. Fresh linens, neatly arranged amenities, and the thoughtful touches made it feel like a home away from home.

The kitchen team also delivered an amazing experience. The food was consistently delicious, well-prepared, and served with care. Breakfast was a highlight – fresh, varied, and beautifully presented.

Just a quick thought—it’d be awesome to see in future a few vegan options on the menu.

Overall, it’s clear that the staff at this hotel take great pride in their work. Thank you all for making our stay so memorable. We will definitely return and recommend this hotel to...

Our third visit to Rovinj, but our first stay at Arupinum. This is a little gem in a great location, with easy access to both Rovinj itself, the beautiful coastal path, and the shaded forest trails which start in the grounds of the hotel Eden nearby. There is a small well-stocked supermarket 5 minutes walk away, as well as an excellent family restaurant for those nights when you don't want to venture into the old town. Really couldn't be a better spot. The hotel itself is spotlessly clean, well-appointed with modern decor, everything is finished to a good standard and like new. Rooms (and beds) are comfortable and of a good size. Fresh towels for bathroom and pool were brought daily. The full five stars however go to the amazing staff here - nothing is too much trouble for them, and from the initial welcome until our departure, the service was relaxed, friendly and personalised. My preferred coffee was remembered and already being prepared as soon as I appeared in the morning, by staff that remembered our names. Those little details which make you feel welcome. Would definitely...
