Bar is a popular resort on the coast of Montenegro - approximately one hour drive from the capital Podgorica. To make the most out of your holiday/vacation I would strongly advise hiring a car to tour this wonderful Balkan country. However, note that their road rules are in some cases different to the rest of western Europe. Most tourist type hotels are located outside of Bar centre or in Sutomore, which is a few KM up the coast. Their are regular buses linking the two. The agape hotel is located on a main road - but do not worry - we experienced no sound noise from the road whatsoever. Parking is available free behind the hotel in public spaces. The hotel is also set up for small conferences. The reception is on the ground floor, where their is a lobby area (that no one seemed to use). The receptionist was wonderfully friendly, helpful and professional. We were allocated a twin bedded room on the first floor close to the restaurant/breakfast room, and the spa area. Again we heard no noise at all from these public areas. Our room was extremely comfortable with twin beds, large flat screen tv (including english speaking channels), fridge, wardrobe, and tea/coffee making facilities. The shower room was extremely large and included toiletries. My only small grumble was that the shower riser rail for the shower head was not long enough, so i did have to bend slightly to wash my hair. I am over 183cm (6'). Breakfast was standard continental fayre with hams, cheese etc, plus the hot eggs, bacon etc. Tea/coffee/juices etc. If you wanted your eggs a certain way then this would be done without problem. The waiter was extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast, evening meals, and bar service is all located on the 1st floor in the same area. It only takes a few minutes to walk to the main shopping/bar/restaurant street. Their are some excellent 'coffee and cake' cafes ! YUM... Their is also a pharmacy only a few minutes walk away. we only stayed a couple of nights, and wish we had longer.
Very Good
