    Nice place, a little further from the town centre than we expected.

    We left the window ajar and got eaten alive by bugs in the night. The bed was quite firm, and was two single beds placed together with individual duvets. The breakfast did not exceed our expectations but did the job. A feral cat jumped on our table spilling a cup of coffee and the waitress got cross with us.

    The room was nice and clean and the employee that checked us in gave us plenty of recommendations for nearby food as we arrived hungry. The accommodation was quite a walk from downtown, accessible via a beautiful seawall but not ideal for transporting luggage. Taxis are available but will rip you off - we were charged 20 euros for a 5 minute ride into town. There is a beautiful beach just down the stairs from the hotel!

    We always like a bigger shower. The TV channels were all in German (not even Croatian).

    We liked the apartment itself. The bed was comfortable. The sitting room was spacious. The kitchen was well equipped. We liked the location, not too many stairs to the beach. And the walk into the town center along the promenade was lovely. Staff were excellent (very attentive). The breakfast was surprisingly well stocked for a smaller hotel/apartment.

    This hotel had one of the best locations I've had while travelling. All the famous beach bars on the island are in 5min walk from the hotel, and if you keep going 5min more by the sea you are in downtown. There is also supermarket and pizzeria nearby if the weather is bad as it was some days while we were there. The breakfast was delicious and with great options for sweet/savory and the staff super friendly. I cannot recommend it enough.

    The location is a bit out from the port, about a 15 minute walk and cabs were very expensive in Hvar, compared to Dubrovnik.

    Very spacious accommodation with a full kitchen and living room. The view was really nice from the hotel, which is postioned up on the hillside. The air conditioning worked well and was not limited. The breakfast buffet was great. The hotel staff were very helpful with information about tours and even arranged laundry service for us (for a fee). The hotel is close to a great restaurant called Primi Piatti. The market is just below the restaurant. We would stay here again!

    breakfast was advertised 7:30-10:30, but they stop restocking at about 9. we had a late breakfast one day and there was very little left, meaning we just got the scraps of what other people didn’t want

    excellent facilities, friendly staff, adequate breakfast. location was very close to the quiet beaches, but as a trade off is a good walk away from the centre town. overall would recommend

    the hotel is in a real nice area of Hvar, with a nice view of the small islands and just 10 minutes of a beautiful walk by the sea from the center, but you have your own parking slot for your car and these is priceless. The room was very clean, the forniture and the bathroom quite basic but in perfect conditions, the terrace wonderful ( room 201 ). All the staff very friendly and helpful.

    Damp smell, sticking door lock, leaky shower cabin, dirty walls - attached pictures speak for themselves. While the receptionist staff was acting friendly, they couldn't help us, because "they are only the receptionists with no power, the management isn't located at the location and can't freely be contacted" - they told us. To spare my words: we refused to stay till the end of our booking, even though they wouldn't refund us even partially.

    The air-conditioning did not work well enough to cool the room down throughout the night while we slept. Our room was very hot.

    The Hotel, convenient, easy, walk down to the coast line and a 10-15 minute walk down to the main eating area in Hvar. We got off the ferry and took a taxi to the location. It was fairly easy to find. We also took a taxi back to the ferry with our luggage. Other than that we walked along the boardwalk on the coast down to beaches and dad to dinner.

    This isn’t specific to this hotel but in general when you are staying further from Hvar town Center the walk can get a bit much especially midday when it’s 30+. Plus walking up the stairs after can be a lot, so if you have multiple kids or a disability it could be a lot.

    The main thing that stood out was the personell. Everyone who worked there was so exceptionally nice. The quality/friendliness and willingness to help was comparable to 5 star hotels I’ve stayed at around the world. The bedrooms were also really great, I found the bedding to be really comfortable and the view from our room was beautiful!

    I wouldn’t call it appartment by the beach. It was a bit walking. And it’s not so family friendly. It’s mostly young people partying til late at night. I didn’t sleep well any of the night since there was a party under us.

    It was not so far from the beach.And the view from our balcony was nice.
