Huma Hotel rests beside the tranquil, blue waters of Kotor Bay. It is not just a place to stay—it promises peace, refinement, and hospitality. A combination of Mediterranean charm, modern convenience, and genuine hospitality, Huma is a place where you can relax and enjoy each moment. Luxury here is not flashy—it is felt in discreet gestures, personalized services, and the sense that you are indeed special.
A Call to Inspire: The vision behind Huma
For Huma Hotel’s General Manager Jochen Niemann, this job was not merely a career change—it was his calling. He was drawn to the stunning view of Kotor Bay and the unique nature of the hotel. Jochen recognized that there was a chance to build something extraordinary. A place where exceptional service intersects with true care.
What gets him most excited isn’t the building or the location—it’s the opportunity to create an area where each guest’s story matters, and each visit is remembered fondly.
Wisdom from a life in Hospitality
After traveling around the world of luxury hospitality, Jochen understands a simple secret: real luxury is not seen – it is felt. Knowing what a guest wants, generally before they have said a word, is where the magic happens. And what is behind each magical moment? A dedicated, determined team.
He does not lead from behind a desk but works with his employees. He creates an excellence, empathy, and pride culture. When a team is inspired, the experience is amazing.
The Heart of Huma: Intimate, Iconic, Effortlessly Elegant
Fundamentally, Huma is a feeling. It’s the peace of walking barefoot in the mornings on a mystical beach, the awe of surrounding mountains reflected in the water, and the happiness of feeling understood by the people around you.
This boutique hotel prides itself on its unique ambiance, exceptional service, and coveted location. As it grows, so does its vision: Jochen envisions Huma as Montenegro’s gem for boutique luxury—where wellness is reimagined, dining is an art, and guests return year after year, not by habit, but because of love.
Reimagining What Luxury Is
The luxury traveler of today requires more than just beautiful design, and luxurious spaces —these travellers are looking for meaning, connection, and real experience. At Huma, seamless integration of design with digital features in combination with real human interaction, offer an unparalleled experience to guests.
Soon, guests will be able to plan their visit to the last details – using a mobile app. They will be able to reserve customized wellness sessions and tours of hidden neighbourhood gems. It’s not just about hospitality. It’s about storytelling—designed by the visitor and delivered by Huma.
Excellence is the way of living
Grand hotels are not built with bricks — they are built with people. Jochen Niemann knows that the essence of Huma is its people. The goal is obvious: each and every guest must feel like the most cherished one.
With mystery guest comments, daily dialogue with operations, and continuous training, Jochen ensures that excellence is not a goal—excellence is a habit. The reward? A culture where service is second nature, not scripted.
Rooted in Place, Driven by Purpose
Huma doesn’t simply exist in Kotor Bay—it is a part of it. Sustainability isn’t an added thought; it is inherent in all that Huma does. From sourcing locally and organically to eliminating single-use plastics, every decision reflects a commitment to Earth and its inhabitants.
Huma collaborates with artists, farmers, and local guides in order to share with tourists more than a getaway—it offers immersion. This is a chance to feel the true essence of Montenegro and to make feel good while doing so.
Shining Bright in a World of Luxury
In a world where five-star stays are very standardised, Huma chooses to stand out. It doesn’t aim to be the biggest, but the most memorable. With bespoke partnerships in the works—from wellness experts to international chefs—Huma keeps pushing the boundaries of what it means to deliver daily luxury.
Here, each meal is a memory, each spa treatment a sanctuary, and each moment a masterpiece. Jochen Niemann envisions the future of Huma in three words: Authentic. Transformative. Timeless.
The Human Touch That Changes Everything
Jochen’s dream for Huma is to crate the favourite memories of his guests – of a place where their name is known, as well as their drink of choice, and how they like the towels set on the beach—without ever having to ask. That tranquil, thoughtful focus makes a lasting impression. It’s a standard that is now applied at Huma.
Imagine entering a room filled with understated surprises—a hand-written card, a private boat tour arranged specifically for you, a farewell present chosen from a whispered conversation days before. That’s the Huma difference.
More Than a Stay—A Life-Changing Experience
Jochen’s promise is straightforward: At Huma, you’re not just checking in—you’re coming home. Every visit is an individual story of loveliness, attention, and happiness.
Whether it’s your first or your fiftieth visit, the moment you leave, you’ll start dreaming of returning.
