If you missed out on the Communist era, the Hotel Neboder is running a neat simulation, note-perfect in several aspects: the menacing front-desk staff, outdated and broken furniture, carpets that needed replacing 20 years ago, and, of course, the truly scary mid-70’s elevator. Extra touches include an air conditioner pegged at 24 C, and room curtains that don’t fit the windows, but none of it would really work without the general atmosphere of hopelessness that is their real masterstroke. Just kidding, comrade, it’s not the real thing, it’s a show for your enjoyment; you can tell because the AC does eventually cool the room, the beds are comfortable, hot water is available, breakfast is mostly edible, and the view from our room on the 11th floor was terrific. It’s a solid 2-star hotel with a 3-star price tag, enjoy it.

One night stopover
I had read some reviews that the hotel was old & very dated. It is, but this added to the experience it was like going back 40 years to an old soviet style hotel. They should use this as a selling point!!! Breakfast buffet was great, lots of choice. Staff were friendly enough.

It is decent hotel. Looks outdated but has the essentials. We stayed just over night, were caught in torential rain, ans was the closest to where we were. No complains. Parking is included, and was full, but he accomodated us to park.

Socialist experience :-)
I visited on a research trip related to the specific building - the exploration of former Yugoslavia hospitality architecture, for which this building is a great case study. Despite its renovation in 2007, it seems to be frozen in time somewhere before the Yugoslavian war, which is exactly what describes the level of comfort in the hotel. Doable but defiantly sub standard. Also, from an architectural standpoint, the hotel becomes a dead trap in case of a fire - the open staircase that connects all floors is also the fire escape route - if there is a fire on the lower floors, occupants on the upper floors will be trapped and are exposed to the fumes. So, if you want to feel the 1960 in a former socialist country, this is your place.

The employees are very nice and the free breakfast is excellent and extensive. My only complaint is the hotel smells like smoke and our nonsmoking room smelled terrible. I complained and they said the couldn't do anything about it.

Dont miss the underground garage entrance, as we did, it's a 2km drive around the one way system in traffic to get back! Would be great if they sent a map and instructions by email. Carpet dirty with burn marks, room ok. Only one socket, get with it, its 2019 not the dark ages, at least supply an extension lead!

Great staff!
The staff was extremely nice at this hotel. The hotel however was much more dated. We did not have a room facing the water so there was just a small window behind the bed. There was however parking that we used as we came with our car.

I wouldn’t go back to Hotel Neboder. They advertise parking, but no parking available, we got a lot of attitude from the hotel receptionist on shift, which just wasn’t needed or expected. Rooms are extremely dated and stuffy and carpet looks disgusting. Don’t eat there, breakfast is a joke, orange juice was like drinking cough syrup. Just a horrible hotel to stay, please avoid.

Disappointing
We travelled to Rijeka for a family wedding and we picked this hotel as the pictures on the website looked lovely. Unfortunately the pictures are nothing like the hotel. It is very basic dated and old fashioned, and the location is not ideal as it is quite a bit of a walk to the town. Also we had hired a car and another reason we had picked this hotel is that it has parking, but the car park was full for the three days we were there. Thankfully we were able to park out on the road outside. However the reception staff were very friendly and helpful and he rooms were very clean, and were cleaned every day with clean sheets and towels every day.

Tired hotel in noisy location
Rather tired hotel with a small room and even smaller lifts! Whilst the location is within easy reach of town it is in a run down area and on a busy road. Plus points for aircon ( you need it as you cannot leave your window and an undercover car park although I challange you to find the entrance first time round!

Decent value for what I needed!!
The staff was very friendly and helpful. The parking was right outside the door. The building is older and the elevator a bit of a pain, but otherwise, I was quite pleased. The room was small but adequate. It was right for the price, for an overnight stop to break up an otherwise long drive.

Sub par hotel, with even lower rankings for offerings. Definitely not the "closest" to the CBD. Free parking was probably the only worthy perk at the hotel.

Good stay...except for the the cold shower
The room was clean however when I took a shower in the morning all I got was cold or colder water. Each timey husband turned on the bathroom faucet he was sprayed with water due to such high water pressure (although the bathroom faucet did have hot water). The location was nice, not too far from the city center / pedestrian area and parking was free. The WiFi worked great. The breakfast was only okay but I believe that is because it was the day after Christmas and they had a limited selection. They did make us scrambled eggs and gave us a plate of meat and cheese. Overall it was a good place to stay for the price and location.

A decent place for a three star hotel. Very friendly staff, amazing view overlooking the city of Rijeka. A bit overpriced since the hotel and rooms are a bit outdated, but still acceptable.

Happy to return but with certain provisos
I like the hotel due to its location on theedge of the Kurzo I've stayed before and returned as I was more than happy - a bit like a Travelfge; basic but clean However, whereas last time I stayed in a twin at the front of the hotel - had a nice balcony, this time I had a single on the other side overlooking the train track. So in addition to the trains all night it had a very weak interent access - I had to sit on the stairs to get uninterrupted coverage. Finally it seemed as if the hot water had run out both in the evening and the morning so not great there So in short, I would stay again but make sure I had a room at the front and try the hot water before I unpack!

Good Location Basic Hotel
Hotel was within walking distance of the bus terminal area and also near the primary walking strip with all the shops and restaurants. If you get a room facing the ocean you will have a nice view. The immediate area of the hotel is a bit rundown. Free breakfast was nice and had all the basics. Room was small and the mattresses are very basic and old. Front staff was helpful. Okay WiFi. Interesting history of hotel, built shortly after WWII, took much longer than anticipated, one of the larger structures in the area. Can hear some vehicle traffic and trains from room in back even at higher levels. decent basic hotel, good value.
