Hotel Conte
A family run waterfront hotel in the stone town of Perast, with a seaside terrace that looks straight across the Bay of Kotor to the island churches, intimate and quietly romantic.
Hotel Conte is one of the best known wedding addresses on the Bay of Kotor, a cluster of Venetian style stone buildings along the Perast waterfront. Its terrace, set right at the water, is among the most photographed reception spots in Montenegro.
It suits an intimate, scenic celebration rather than a vast party, often paired with a ceremony on the nearby island of Our Lady of the Rocks. Privatising the terrace carries a minimum spend, so confirm the season, the numbers and the current terms directly.

Style and setting
Hotel Conte sits on the waterfront of Perast, a small Baroque town of Venetian style palazzos on the Bay of Kotor. The hotel spreads across several historic stone buildings, and its terrace runs right to the water, looking out at the two island churches that define the bay. For a wedding it is intimate, atmospheric and unmistakably Montenegrin.
Capacity
The venue is built for intimate to mid size celebrations rather than large ones, with the seaside terrace as the centrepiece and a 17th century stone room indoors for dining or poor weather. Exact seated numbers depend on the layout and how much of the terrace you take, so confirm the figure for your guest count directly with the hotel.
Ceremony and the celebration
Many couples pair the hotel with a ceremony on the island of Our Lady of the Rocks, a short boat ride across the bay, or in the old Perast square, then return to the terrace for the reception. The restaurant is well practised at weddings and can also cater on the islands and at other points around the bay.
What it costs
To privatise the seaside terrace for a wedding lunch or dinner, the hotel sets a minimum food and beverage spend, indicatively from around EUR 10,500 in April and EUR 12,500 in May and June. The hotel does not provide decoration in house but can recommend trusted design contacts. Treat these figures as indicative and confirm the current minimums directly.
