201 Engaging Spaces Podgorica

Hidden in a hotel

Maja from Podgorica

About me My name is Maja and I was born in 1990. I studied in the Czech Republic and in the United Kingdom, but I would always come back to Montenegro. I'm working in the civil society and I love traveling and checking spots on Spotted by Locals ( : . Why Podgorica I love my city because it is mine first of all. Podgorica is a very warm place with nice people...
"Room 201 is hidden in a local hotel. Climb to the second floor, and you'll find a relaxed spot with a self-service bar and terrace!"

Ok, so this place could be really hard to find if you don't know where to look for it, so it is crucial for it to be on this list. (: And I feel like this is one the places that really fit into the Spotted by Locals mission. It is truly local, alternative, and artistic. The reason why it is called 201, is because it is in fact room No. 201 in one of the local hotels. So you need to enter the hotel and climb to the second floor and you will see one of the doors leading there. Anyway, there will be someone at the reception, so you can always ask. The trick is that the hotel does not really look like a hotel from the outside, so if you think you are at the wrong place - you are probably there.

It's a building with some stores on the first floor, a flower shop, and I think there is even a bakery there. I'm sure you will find it and when you do - you will love it. It has a really relaxed atmosphere, a self-service bar, and an amazing terrace. On some days they have live music (usually Wednesday), but often times they have some weekend programs as well, so make sure you check their social media. Also, they often host exhibitions and different discussions, so I'm sure there will be something for everybody's interest.

About me My name is Maja and I was born in 1990. I studied in the Czech Republic and in the United Kingdom, but I would always come back to Montenegro.

Also, Podgorica is the smallest and least famous of all of the capitals in ex-Yugo...
