The apartment's host graciously escorted us from the taxi to the apartment, taking the time to thoroughly address all of our inquiries with meticulous attention to detail. Giving us tips for the best locations and restaurants Split has to offer. Our stay at the Heart of Palace Apartment was truly unforgettable, offering a perfect blend of history, culture, and excitement in the heart of Split. From the captivating beauty of Diocletian's Palace to the breathtaking vistas of Krka National Park and the adrenaline of the Marathon Split 2024, every moment was filled with adventure and discovery. This apartment provides the ideal retreat for exploring all that Split has to offer. I cannot recommend it highly enough for anyone looking to experience the magic of Croatia in style. Perched amidst the labyrinthine streets of Diocletian's Palace, the apartment enjoys a privileged position at the heart of Split's historic center. From here, guests can easily explore the city's vibrant squares, bustling markets, and ancient monuments, soaking in the rich tapestry of Split's cultural heritage. Whether wandering through the palace's storied corridors or venturing out to discover the nearby coastline, every corner of Split invites exploration and discovery. The comfortable beds offer a welcome respite after a day of sightseeing, while the inclusion of both heating and air conditioning ensures optimal comfort throughout the year. Despite its historic setting, the apartment boasts modern amenities. One of the apartment's highlights is its charming balcony, offering sweeping views of Split's picturesque skyline. Though a few stairs must be climbed to reach the apartment, the panoramic vistas of the surrounding palace walls and bustling streets below make the ascent well worth it.

Nothing. The only problem may be for people with mobility issues to get up and down the stairs, otherwise there is nothing we didn’t like.

Our family loved this apartment! The owners are so kind and helpful. They helped with the luggage, parking and gave excellent recommendations for food and activities. The apartment looks exactly like the pictures and was very clean and comfortable. The little details and history of the apartment are great. Perfect location inside the palace. It was magical and we are so happy we stayed here.

The apartment was great and met our needs as a family. It was great for our teenage girls to have two separate rooms. The beds were comfy and the location was superb, within the city walls but very close to the bus station and port. We would definitely recommend it!

Fantastic location and apartment. Hosts were incredibly helpful and accommodating. We would definitely love to stay here again if in Split. Highly recommended

The property was amazing for us. We wouldn’t change anything however I would probably say not suitable for anyone with any significant mobility issues due to the stairs.

The property was a perfect location. Well equipped with a lovely balcony which was a great place to have a drink and enjoy the view. The host was extremely helpful, advising us on some wonderful places to eat that served local produce. Also giving some amazing tips including ferry trips and one of the highlights of the trip, listening to live music in the Palace Square. The air conditioning in the flat was very welcome even in September.

There are a lot of stairs but we were aware when we chose the apartment.

Full of character, great view from balcony. Host very welcoming and came to meet us. He have us lots of information to help us enjoy our stay. Air conditioning excellent.

There nothing to complain besides that there is only one bathroom (which has plenty of space by the way). As we were in 4 it was an issue sometimes but it did not impact our great positive opinion regarding the property. Also there is no elevator to bring up the bags.

We were extremely well received by a very kind madam (forgot her name). She met us near the Cathedral (after very precise instructions), showed us the ways to to apartment (inside the ruins - which is amazing, very beautiful) and showed every detail of the apartment. Everything in the apartment were working and the balcony has an amazing view to Split Riva. Really recommend the property.

Excellent location, close to shopping, boat trips, and other adventures. Fantastic view from the balcony of the harbor, the church, and the old rooftops. Very friendly and helpful hosts. The apartment was very clean and fresh, not to mention historical.

Clean, spacious apartment. Such beautiful accomodation in the heart of old town. Within walking distance to all shops, restaurants and beach. Hosts were amazing.

The apartment is perfectly located, it was clean and well equipped with all you need (plates etc. as well as toiletpaper, soap, shampoo, towells etc.) The communication was good and fast and both Magda, her husband and mother were very nice. All in all a great base for a visit in Split👌

There are quite a few steps up to the apartment with no lift, so anyone who has mobility issues should be mindful of that. They did provide us with assistance bringing our luggage up and down the stairs which was very much appreciated!

This apartment is very well appointed and in a great location within the walls of Diocletian's Palace. It is a close walk to everything but far enough removed to also be very quiet. The view over the port is spectacular and we enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the mornings to take it all in. The apartment provides an authentic experience but also comfortable accommodations with good air conditioning. The host was very friendly and helpful in providing us with recommendations and information on the area.

Nothing, it was perfect. The highlight of our 3 week vacation.

The location was primo. Right near the Palace but not in the middle of things so wasn't noisy (we could hear the church bells if we had windows open but I enjoyed the sounds). Was great to be able to do laundry. A/C was great. Lots of space for our family of 4 to spread out and have some privacy. Host had great recommendations for restaurants.

5 mins to anything. Situated in the Palace. So so convenient and very cool to live in a historical building. Air con was fantastic. Hosts were very responsive and helpful. Would stay again.

Host spent time talking to us about local attractions

Stayed in June 2023

i had a small challenge finding it as maps lead me to the back of the building but Mom came to the rescue!!

This apartment is probably the nicest apartment i have ever rented online. I was recently remodeled - a lot of power outlets (not so common), new windows and shutters - no street noises, in the heart of the palace in deed, stunning views, private location and close to everything. absolutely perfect. it is a 4 story walk up but stairs were well lighted.

Spacious, clean apartment based in old town really accessible to everything. The host is exceptional, he showed us everything and helped finding stuff we needed. We will definitely come back.

We loved to stay at The Heart of Palace Apartment. The host's mother was super friendly and helped us to find a place to park. The location is perfect and the house amazing and full of history.

We loved being on the top floor but beware there are 3 flights of stairs to navigate.

Beautiful apartment with plenty of room within the walls of Diocletian’s Palace. The central location didn’t mean it was loud - on the contrary it was very quiet. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen well outfitted, the balcony was a lovely bonus. The bathroom is small but practical. The apartment is lovingly decorated. Vlado welcomed us warmly, carried our bags up the stairs and showed us where the best restaurants, bakery and supermarkets were. Thank you so much for that - it was really appreciated. I would highly recommend this apartment.

Nothing - we would love to go back!

The apartment is amazing - it’s large and beautifully furnished and the balcony is perfect for watching the sunset over the rooftops. We loved everything about our stay. The hosts were incredibly helpful and welcoming and we appreciated the tips on cafes and restaurants to try. The only challenge is finding it - it’s tucked away right inside the palace, and that was part of its charm!

Stayed in October 2022

Perfect location within the palace walls. Host was very helpful with finding parking location, which is difficult in that area. We got many helpful tips regarding restaurants and interesting locations. When in Split we will certainly come again!

Nothing - although you need to be prepared to climb a few flights of stairs!

Everything! We were met at the property by the owners Mum, who was fantatsic. The facilities were excellent and the location was perfect.

Stayed in August 2022

No parking on site due to where it was located, so you had to find public parking, but that was to be expected with the location.

The location was great, the apartment was super clean & comfortable and we felt right at home. The host took time to show us the property and give us great recommendations about the area and restaurants.

The apartment itself is way better than in the pictures, which definitely helped to exceed our expectations and made it a dream apartment for a long weekend away. It's a big cozy apartment in the heart of the city, close enough to everything but at the same time in a very quiet corner ( we could not hear at all noise during the night). It's super nice arranged inside mixing a bit of modern furniture with old one, lovely! The beds are deffo super comfy :) The landlord provides us with plenty of nice suggestions, especially restaurants, highly appreciated! Do not forget to enjoy the amazing view from the balcony, at the golden hour the view is priceless !!! For sure a place to stay in Split and get the vibe of the city !!!
