Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is a hidden gem within the historic Diocletian's Palace offering chic and functional rooms that are a bit small but very comfortable. The service provided by the staff is outstanding, going above and beyond to ensure a delightful stay. Its location is superb, nestled in a quiet courtyard off a main square, immersing you in the essence of the Old Town. The dining options, while satisfactory, could use a touch more variety. Overall, a charming retreat for those seeking a unique experience.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel, tucked away in the heart of Split. The rooms, despite being small, were beautifully situated in a great part of town. The spiral staircase added a unique charm to the experience, and being in the center of Split was truly convenient.
The hotel is nestled right inside Diocletian Palace, a sought-after location in the heart of Split. The rooms, although beautifully appointed, have a pitched roof that might lead to some challenges for taller guests. The service was attentive and genuine, with staff going the extra mile to ensure guest comfort. The dining experience was outstanding, offering a variety of options both indoors and in the courtyard of the Palace. The location provides easy access to the main sights and restaurants, making it an ideal hub for exploring the city.
Staying at this hotel was a delightful experience. The unique layout of the rooms might be a challenge for some, but the ambiance and location make up for it. The absence of some basic amenities was a downside, but the historical surroundings added a special touch to the stay.
Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although small, had a nice bathroom. The layout on two levels with tight steps could be tricky after indulging in Nerica Posip. The service was exceptionally friendly and helpful, even offering unique transportation. The dining experience, while good, didn't match premium standards. Overall, a cozy stay with some minor drawbacks.
