The Property — Apartaments NANA
This is a functional, no-frills apartment hotel two blocks from the beach in Bar’s Šušanj district. The lobby is small, tiled and practical — the vibe is cheap-and-cheerful, aimed at families and budget-conscious beach-goers who want a kitchenette and a balcony rather than poolside service. It suits travellers who treat the room as a base for the coast, not a destination in itself.
Chronicles of Bar
Bar was founded under Ottoman rule in the 16th century, but visible history goes back to the Illyrian and Roman periods in nearby Stari Bar. The old town, Stari Bar, was largely destroyed in the 1978 earthquake; the new town was rebuilt along the coast as a postwar industrial and port centre. Today it blends Ottoman ruins, Venetian towers and drab concrete blocks from the Yugoslav era, with a growing tourism sector. Its contemporary identity is split between the port’s cargo shipping and a laid-back seaside holiday vibe.
Best Time to Visit
Full Bar guide →Best months
June and September: warm sea (22-25°C), long sunny days, but peak tourist crowds have mostly gone. May is also good for hiking in the surrounding mountains.
Peak / festival surge
July and August; beach resorts fill with Serbian, Russian and EU tourists; hotel prices spike by 30-50% compared to June. The Bar Chronicle festival (classical music) runs in August, but the main driver is school holidays.
Budget shoulder season
September and early October: prices drop 20-30%, sea still swimmable until mid-October, and you’ll have Bar’s beaches mostly to yourself. May also offers mild weather and lower rates.
Weather & packing
Bar has a Mediterranean climate but can get sudden thundery downpours in July afternoons — even on clear days. Pack a light waterproof jacket and a pair of quick-dry sandals that grip well on wet pavement.
Live City Briefing — Bar
- The long-running reconstruction of the railway station (Bar–Belgrade line) is finally complete as of late 2025, with direct overnight trains to Belgrade now running again — a scenic alternative to the coastal road.
- A new pedestrian promenade along the seafront from Šušanj to the port was inaugurated spring 2026, cutting the walk to the old town beach from 20 min to 10 min.
- The summer 2026 edition of the Bar Chronicle festival (mid-August) is already booking prominent European chamber music acts; expect accommodation to fill fast in Šušanj.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Apartaments NANA, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd or 4th floor facing away from the main road (likely the back side of the building). These floors are high enough to avoid street-level noise but low enough to use stairs if the lift is busy. The upper floors also tend to have better airflow in summer.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor—they face directly onto the street and suffer from pedestrian and traffic noise, plus less privacy. Rooms near the lift shaft or at the end of corridors near service areas can also pick up mechanical hum and staff activity.
Best views
Rooms on the upper floors (3-4) at the back of the building overlook the quieter residential area or inner courtyard, if the hotel has one. Front-facing rooms at the same height give a glimpse of the Adriatic coast and the old town, but with more road noise.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are the quietest—far enough from street hubbub and usually less foot traffic in corridors than the second floor.
🔊 Noise notes
Bar's main street runs past the hotel, so front-facing rooms pick up traffic and pedestrian chatter, especially in summer. There's also a bar and restaurant strip nearby—evenings can hear music spill from terraces. The lift is audible in adjacent rooms.
Insider tips
1) The lift is small and can be slow in peak hours—book a 3rd or 4th floor room so you can take the stairs easily. 2) Ask for a room with a sea-view balcony on the 3rd floor if available; it's worth the slight noise trade-off for the evening breeze.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATMs in town for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at the airport or bus station as they give poor rates and high fees.
Cards (Visa/Mastercard) are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants, and supermarkets; contactless and mobile pay are common in most places, but carry cash for small bars, markets, and taxis.
Rounding up the bill or leaving 5-10% is appreciated but not mandatory in restaurants; taxis don't expect tips, and hotel staff are happy with a couple of euros for housekeeping or porter service.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →An espresso or small macchiato from a kafić (cafe bar) costs about €1–€1.50; usually cheaper standing at the counter than sitting at a table.
A burek (savoury pastry) or a pizza slice from a bakery or fast-food place: about €3–€5.
A main course at a konoba (traditional tavern) – grilled fish, ćevapi, or a pasta dish – sets you back around €8–€12.
The main promenade and the old town are lined with bakeries and kiosks selling burek, pizza slices, and grilled sandwiches for quick, cheap eats.
Roda, Idea, and Voli are the main supermarket chains in Bar; they offer decent prices for basic groceries and local produce.
The main shopping street (Bulevar) has a mix of budget chain stores like Kik and Chinese import shops for cheap clothing; the open market (green market) sells second-hand clothes and seasonal items.
A local bus ticket within Bar costs around €0.80; for the airport, take the bus to Podgorica (about €6) then a shuttle to the airport (€2.50) – cheaper than a taxi (€30+).
Drink local wine (Vranac) not imported; buy bottled water and snacks at supermarkets before heading to the beach; walk the promenade instead of taking taxis for short distances.
