Real trains...For those who have not been to Montenegro, but have watched the latest James Bond, this might be a bit of a dissapointment. The high-speed train from Switzerland to somewhere in Montenegro bears little resemblence to the Montenegrin railways today and would lose its attraction somewhere along the line of the 30 hours long journey. And the hotel is also not quite the Hotel Crna Gora... But it seems that Montenegrin tourism will profit and Casino Royal is already invoked in Montenegro's advertisment . Sorry, just no evil lair there (except maybe Radovan Karadzic's).
Fake Hotels...
...and real ones

I want to reserve a room at the fake hotel, the real one is so boringly modern! The train looks like an OLD Sarajevo tram!
I think the fake hotel is actually in Karlovy Vary...
oh, well!!!
living in montenegro is the best thing that can happen to someone!
why didn't you mention the new SPLENDID Hotel in Budva!
And I don't think Crna Gora looks like that, it is very beautiful!
But the trains are dissaster, i agree!
still, Montenegro is a beautiful country!!!

Anyone want to sign on for a plan to open a new international university in Perast?
OK, the trains in Montenegro are not speed trains, but the one on the photo is the service car. The Belgrade-Bar railway is one of Europe's most spectacular (see here http://www.pbase.com/alangrant/montenegro4, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5KRqnvUY3c).
As for the hotels, the crappy ones are dying out and there are many new five-star ones. Finally, the beauty of Montenegro can not be disputed. It is the most attractive part of the former Yugoslavia.
Greetings from Belgrade
