Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offered a great value with clean and well-equipped rooms, but there was a push for upgrades. The staff were helpful and friendly, making the stay pleasant. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Split's old town. The dining experience had a variety of options but lacked quality in some areas.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. On the plus side, it's situated right in the center of town, making it convenient for exploring and catching the ferry. The rooms were lovely, clean, and neat, contributing to a comfortable stay.
