Aminess Liburna Hotel

This hotel is just on the edge of Korcula, a 10 minute walk from the old town. It is the perfect location, away from the centre, right on the water, the dining veranda looks over the harbour to the old town. Gorgeous! The rooms are functional, cleaned every day. The hotel is quiet, and very friendly and responsive. The food was great! There is a large buffet for breakfast having every kind of breakfast you could want from eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, cereals, fruit all kinds of breads, croissants, cheeses and meats. Dinner buffet is very good and with lots of choice. Some reviews have mentioned that there isn’t a wide choice, but there is a good variety of all kinds of main dishes, vegetables, vegetarian and meat and fish dishes . I would definitely come back, an extremely pleasant stay!

I didn’t experience all the issues that previous travelers had encountered. It is a big modern hotel that appeared quite clean. Many rooms have a nice view. Quiet and a 10 minute walk to the town center. The bed complaints are quite spot on. The mattresses are inexpensive and beyond their useful life. I had to rotate the mattresses to make them barely tolerable. Mattress comfort is a big consideration in my rating. The rooms are of a standard size. I also agree that avoiding the restaurant is a good idea. A bit below what I would expect from the 5th best hotel in Korcula.

We hope to provide a clear and honest appraisal of this hotel so you can really decide if it is for you. The hotel is in a great location and has had a recent makeover so many of the areas appear bright clean and comfortable. Sadly there is a lot to be done to make it a comfortable place to stay. Our bathroom was not cleaned properly before arrival (had to get cleaning staff back in after 1700hrs) we could wipe the grime off the towel rail with a finger and there was black mould in the shower area. Not what we wanted after 12 hours of travelling. The beds were so bad we could not sleep, practically every spring was protruding and hurting our ribs and hips all night. We were moved rooms the following morning only to find the same terrible standard of mattresses. This problem of bad beds has been highlighted in other reviews, we can assure you it is true. The day manager managed to get us a mattress topper, which was a poor fix. The buffet food looks good, but was always lukewarm and very badly cooked. The fish (on three occasions) was so dried out and tough it was inedible, cooked chicken was like rubber. It was so obvious this food was routinely kept warm for hours and spoiled. The only good point we found was that the staff were bright and friendly. We have travelled the world for decades now, and can honestly say this is the first hotel we would never go back to.

Very let down by this hotel. The Room Firstly, do not book a so called "superior room", the only redeeming feature of the hotel is the view, and we were stuck in room looking at waste space with some plants. It was like being in the basement. Didn't use the balcony once, cannot believe i paid extra for it. Though being a superior room it came with a bath, should have been nice if the bath didn't take nearly 45 minutes to fill up. Other issues- No mini bar menu so no idea what anything cost Poor bed linen thin and not good quality, the beds needed replaced as well Poor thin towels, needed replaced everyday There was a disgusting plaster on the hair dryer. No information on the hotel except that which was given out in reception but this very poor. The Bar Small and no atmosphere, no music played. The amount of wine they gave you in a glass was a complete joke for the price. I thought they were letting me taste the wine at first and then i realised that was all of it! The so called happy hours were a joke too, offer you about a euro off an aperol spritz between 5 and 6 and then a gin and tonic between 8 and 9 and that was it! We never really drank there after the first night and there was a nice bar on the way to town called Banje that was very simple but had more atmosphere and better food and drink. This sounds like i drink a lot but i don't, but on holiday you like to relax somewhere in the evening and we just went back to the room. Restaurant I would recommend not paying for half board and if you could have not paid for breakfast i would have done that too. The food was woeful. Breakfast Terrible coffee (powder milk in the machine) Fruit juices were basically diluting juice and with sugar levels that would destroy your teeth The Yogurt was watery Toast (the machine that made toast took 15 mins so i gave up in the end) And the rest was bog standard, we stopped really having much other than ham and cheese Dinner As someone else commented, it was like poor school dinners, the same old stuff nearly every night. And as others have commented you have to pay for any kind of drink including water. This would be ok but you would have to pay for 4 glasses of their size of wine to make up one normal glass. And the prices were not cheap for the drinks. I think thats why they allow you to sign everything to you room so you don't realise how much you paid. Again like the bar after a few nights we stopped going to dinner even though we had paid as it was so poor. Pool Pool area was very small and cramped, not relaxing at all. The outside areas in general were poor. Overall if there was was thing this hotel was good at it was mediocrity. It is the definition of meh! if even one thing had of been above average i would have been happy. But there were much nicer places to stay. I think it only stays open because of the endless stream of Americans who stay one or two night when on longer trips and so they don't care as much.

We stayed in many hotels while travelling around Croatia, and this was by far the worst in every aspect. The rooms were basic and poorly maintained, with cheap furniture, bare walls, uncomfortable beds and cleaning that left a lot to be desired. The hotel is advertised as four-star, but in reality it feels more like a two-star. The location isn’t great — it’s quite far from the town centre — and the facilities are very limited. The pool is small, and there are no amenities on the beach. You can’t even get drink by the pool and the bar is only open in the evening. There is no atmosphere anywhere around hotel and it has no character. The food was particularly disappointing: bland, lacking variety, and simply not enjoyable. Reminiscent of school dinners in both quality and variety. It was by far the worst food we experienced during our trip. Although the staff were pleasant and tried to help, there wasn’t much they could do. Overall, a very poor experience and not recommended.
