Back in June, I had a pleasant stay at Remisens Ambassador for business and fell in love with Opatija, so I decided to bring family back to the riviera for summer holiday. As I found that Giorgio II in the same Remisens group was opened just a month ago and the pictures on their website looked nice, I gave it a go. I have to mention that the price was irresistible too, compared to other 4-star-or-more-hotels in Croatia.
I stayed there with my husband and daughters (age 15 and 19). We loved the infinity pool, water park in the sea, and morning exercise classes. We didn't have to fight for deck chairs by the pool in the morning (water park side can be busier tho). Fresh beach towels are provided everyday which I loved.
Only downside is the location. It was too far to walk to the busy part of Opatija and although we rented a car, it was hard to park in the centre of the riviera. It was full-board basis and we stayed there for 4 nights. But we ate out once in Opatija and once in Rovinj otherwise you'd feel too isolated and bored. But if you decide to go out after dinner, the chances you can find a place to park is zero in the peak holiday season. Overall, it is a good family hotel that gives you a base to explore wonderful Croatia and good value for money. If you are traveling as a couple, love a bit of luxury, and want to stay closer to the busy area, I would definitely recommend to stay in Ambassador though.
