Hotel Materada Plava Laguna

Hotel Materada was good overall, but I probably wouldn’t come back. The staff was friendly, and the stay was pleasant, but there were some issues. The biggest problem was the weak water pressure in the toilet, which was inconvenient. With a few improvements, the hotel could provide a much better experience.

Just returned from the hotel - stayed there for 5-6th times. It is still best value for money hotel in class of 3 stars hotels in Plava Laguna Porec. Everything is excellent, location, parking, parks, pool, food, beach is near the hotel. It could be noisy and busy during and after the dinner, so if you are looking some more silent options chose rooms viewing the park, not the pool/sea, or chose some other hotel in Zelena Laguna which is much more quiet area in general. Staff is friendly, especially Almedin in lobby bar and Stefan on pool. Animation for kids is very good, all greetings for personal in Kids club. Only one big minus is very small room, but terrace and bathroom is very good. Overall, very good experience for the money we paid, and we will for sure return again next summer.

Hotel is clean. Good choice at breakfast. Rooms are very small with nowhere to put suitcase out if the way- but comfortable. Some staff very unfriendly. Air con not available. Dont expect to get a coffee after 8pm when they've cleaned the machine and no facilities in room to make a hot drink

The hotel is large and beautifully landscaped. The bedrooms however are small. No place to store a suitcase. Nice and clean. Staff not that friendly. Woman at the lobby bar was just really really rude. No possibility to make drinks in the room- and refused coffee to purchase in the evening- rudely declined. Hotel caters mainly for German- which is fine- but we didn't feel welcomed. Air-conditioning was turned off so we couldn't choose our room temperature. Breakfast ok but very samey. Again rude service-- clearing cutlery and condiments while still eating 15 mins before end of service. Feel we were treated poorly compared to other guests. Also watch sunbeds near sea front at hotel. You have to pay for them although on hotel grounds. Also be aware that this hotel us about a 30min walk from Porec old town

The hotel is otherwise tidy, the food is average, breakfast is the same every day. We have a comment about the elevator. They only have 2 elevators, in one the button for the floor with the restaurant does not work, so you have to wait for the other elevator. Generally you have to wait for the elevator for a long time. One part of the hotel does not have an elevator. The room is very small. 4 people (2 adults, 2 children) were put in a room where you can't even step sideways on the floor next to the bed because they are so close together, it has one wardrobe, one shelf. We wanted to change rooms at the reception but they didn't want to give us a bigger one. the beach is very close and there is a lot of shade, a big plus
