In Your Pocket



Montenegro In Your Pocket

Named after the forbidding view of towering black mountains that the trembling Venetians spotted from their ships, Montenegro is a tiny but very bumpy country housing less people than Glasgow - yet with so much good stuff on offer. With a stunning coastline, Venetian-built medieval cities and fortresses, huge mountain ranges and Europe's most impressive bay, Montenegro has it all.

Podgorica, the capital city of this new state, is a modern capital that never set out to conquer the planet with its beauty, but visitors soon recognise it's a deliciously different and practically unknown Balkan city. On a hot summers' afternoon the place is deserted, but come late afternoon and you'll be sucked up in a lively and friendly crowd of students, pretty girls, bodybuilders, old ladies and chubby chaps with man-bags, all strolling around the pedestrianised streets. Soon you'll know what makes Podgorica our favouritest tiniest capital city. Read everything about it in the new Podgorica In Your Pocket online and print city guide.

The gem of the Montenegrin coastline is undoubtedly Kotor, with its charming UNESCO-listed old town hid in a corner of a dazzlingly beautiful bay. Kotor In Your Pocket has the details. Other intriguing sights include age-old Cetinje and leisurely Lake Skadar, both just a short drive from Podgorica and honored with a feature in this guide.

    It's hard to go wrong here; the seafood dishes are very good and the menu is wide enough to suit all tastes. The "distracted" waiters are actually very good. As well as the section "at the back" there is a more plush restaurant upstairs. You can [...]
  • Café Mexicana
    Seriously? Whoever wrote this review did not eat here. We are Americans living in Podgorica. The resemblence to Mexican food stops at the menu. The "enchilada" was a crepe folded and filled with canned mushrooms and cheese and nothing else (inclu[...]
  • Kosta’s
    As a guest in hotel Kostas and also almost all hotels in Podgorica I was suprised that hotel Kostas is in category of so bad hotels at least according to your web site. As a often service user of hotel accommodation and services I noticed that hotel Kostas is in top of the hotel offer in Montenegro. It wouldn't be too bad if you checked the information given on this web site.

    EDITOR: We do not consider Kosta's bad at all - we suggest you re-read the review carefully. But don't fool yourself - its not really five stars, nor the top hotel in town.[...]
