Hotel Split

“Solo trip”

Postives. My room was lovely. I had a balcony room facing the sea with a first class view of Split and the islands. The hotel has direct beach access and a small roof top pool.

Postives. My room was lovely. I had a balcony room facing the sea with a first class view of Split and the islands. The hotel has direct beach access and a small roof top pool. My room was clean and comfortable. To improve... This hotel is one or two steps away from being really great. For example, whilst I was provided with a robe and slippers in my room, there was only a single, generic body/ hair wash as opposed to shampoo and conditioner. No body lotion provided. The roooms have air conditioning, but you cannot control it yourself, instead you must go to reception to request changes, which i have not come across before. Breakfast....could be better, again, some minor changes would make it great as opposed to ok. For example, the single coffee machine uses powdered milk, not fresh, so my morning latte tasted odd. The machine then broke meaning filter coffee only. Definetly not great coffee. The fresh fruit was uncovered, so when i arrived, the slices of melon had a number of flies on it. The hotel has a lovely beach side trerrace that it doesn't make use of ( no magical dining under the stars here,) which is a bit strange as everyone simply walks down the beach to the restaurants. This means the hotel felt quiet and deserted in the evening. I was very surprised that the beach terrace was not a vibrant dining location. Overall, with a few changes, this hotel would easily be heading towards top end 4 star rather than settling for the lower end. Fresh milk in those breakfast coffees( cover the fruit!) and ditch the generic all-in - one hair and body wash ..do that and I'll be back. .

“Overall good but certainly room for improvement”

Nice enough hotel with access to a reasonably quite clean beach out back. Pros: Comfy rooms with beautiful views particularly at sunset. Good enough breakfast offering Very pleasant and helpful reception staff at all times. Cons! - traffic too and from Split town heavy and long delays getting to and fro depending on time of travel! Though its a mere 5km journey! - ludicrous rule by the hotel where one cannot sit on their terrace area down by the beach (owing to some “incomplete paperwork’” we were told- lots of seats sitting there redundant large sofas and tables and chairs for some 50+ persons yet we were reliably informed the police would be called if we sat there! Hard to fathom any logic here! - be aware guests have to pay 20euro daily (for 2) for sun loungers (normally 40 euros). I would have thought this would be free for staying guests. - breakfast food servicing good though somewhat spoilt by the consistently grumpy waitress working there daily - it was not just a bad day -it’s was 5 days in a row of such demeanour/ service! Definitely not a happy camper! - elevator was out of service on day of arrival and again on day of departure! No fun when staying on level 1 and you access the beach via level -4! Lots of steps!

“Amazing view and rooms are exquisite”

Me and my boyfriend were upgraded to a better room and it was an amazing surprise. The room is big and has an extraordinary view to the sea. The only downside is that the air conditioning doesn’t work. Luckily it isn’t that hot. The hotel is directly at the beach and you can literally walk 10m from… more

Me and my boyfriend were upgraded to a better room and it was an amazing surprise. The room is big and has an extraordinary view to the sea. The only downside is that the air conditioning doesn’t work. Luckily it isn’t that hot. The hotel is directly at the beach and you can literally walk 10m from the hotel in to the water. The staff is really friendly and helpful. Breakfast is ok. It’s a small room with few chairs and few options, but I was satisfied. Fresh fruit and good coffee. I was a bit disappointed, that this hotel has no restaurant, nor a bar. There are also no good restaurants or bars near the hotel. We always have to take a bus to Split. Luckily there’s a bus stop only 5min away. The roof top terrace and pool are awesome!

“It was okay”

The hotel itself is reasonably nice and has the most stunning views but that sort of seems to be all it has going for it.

The hotel itself is reasonably nice and has the most stunning views but that sort of seems to be all it has going for it. Whilst I was staying the pool has been out of order which is unavoidable, incidents happen, but then I was really surprised to find that the other option, the beach, meant paying for sunbeds even if you were a hotel guest which has never been something i’ve encountered before? I found a lot of the staff quite awkward however don’t want to comment too much on a persons character. It isn’t that the hotel is bad, I likely have just stayed at a time where there have been issues, including a broken lift

“Not a 4 star hotel but nice location!”

We chose this hotel because of it's location and 4 start rating. We stayed in September and paid for large room with a balcony and sea view. The room was indeed very large and we got a seaview terrace however, there was a large concreted area with large metal railings at the end of the terrace which partially blocked the sea view. We would have been much happier with a balcony or something that actually had a good seaview for that price! If you are planning to book for the views then make sure it's not a terrace. Having said that we did have sunlounges which was nice to relax on after the beach. The decor in the room wasn't to our liking - it was dark red and a bit dated with some dirty walls. One bedside table lamp was missing. The bathroom was nice and modern, however part of the shower cubicle wasn't properly sealed so the water kept pouring onto the floor around the loo. Air conditioning can only be controlled from the from desk which is inconvenient and annoying. The bed was comfortable and clean. Plenty of wardrobe space. No iron which for 4 star hotel should have been there. Two very small bottles of water in the fridge. In terms of the facilities I would say it's not spectacular. The pool is ok. However the gym is laughable. Big empty room (hot) with one treadmill and old fashioned cross trainer. Small box with some light dumbbells and that's about it. No yoga mats, no water, no towels and no staff)). Breakfast was nothing to shout about - fairly average and same every single day. Again for a 4 star hotel very average. Staff was ok - a bit robotic. The beach was nice - great location if you want quiet clean beach with a few small food stalls and restaurants. Sunbeds are 25 euros for two people per day, but you don't have to use them - hotel supplies free beach towels you can use instead and there are some wooden sunshades already in place. There is a bus stop 5 min walk from the hotel and it runs roughly every half hour. Split is about 17-20 min ride. Overall I would rate this hotel 3 star as there is much room for improvement for the price we paid (which wasn't cheap). We loved the location but we would book elsewhere next time.
