Questions about staying in Kotor
Does a booking confirmation replace foreign-guest registration?
At a registered hotel or private accommodation, the provider registers and deregisters foreign guests using their travel-document details. An online booking confirmation does not confirm that registration has been completed.
Where can you leave a car when staying at Hotel Cattaro?
Cattaro identifies Benovo parking for its guests, about 300 meters from the hotel in the Old Town. Reception also mentions possible assistance with moving luggage from the parking area to the hotel.
Can you pay by card on arrival at Old Town Hostel?
Old Town Hostel states that payment at the property is cash only. This applies to payment on arrival, rather than the payment method for every online booking.
