Hotels in Split

Find a central Split hotel and the treasures of the city are on your doorstep...

The central areas of Split contain a very good range of accommodation, from budget to luxury hotels, where you can hop from the spa to your to-die-for room views within minutes. The harbour and the areas around the palace are popular places to stay, where you can find some of the best five-star hotels.

Big international brands in the area are few and far between but look out for the Radisson Blu or the Le Meridien if that's what you're after. Nearly all of the other hotels are locally managed and run, including the many apartments on offer.

It’s wise to book Split accommodation as far in advance of travel as possible to secure the best rates, especially if you plan to be in the city during the busy summer season.

Top five attractions

Diocletian's Palace

Designated a World Heritage Site by Unesco, this enormous complex was built at the turn of the fourth century. Today it's a major hub for business, tourism and local life. You can't miss it, but you wouldn't want to.

Marjan

The Marjan is the hill that sits prettily on the peninsula and provides a striking green backdrop to the creams and reds of Split's architecture. Walking trails, recreational activities and even a zoo can be found here, though the views from the top are the most glorious assets of Marjan.

A trip to the islands

Split is a wonderful base from which to explore the islands of the Adriatic. Book trips to island wonders such as Hvar and Brac.

Brela Beach

The city beaches are great, but nearby Brela feels like another world. Crystal-clear waters lap on to the white sands of secluded coves, and pine trees provide shade and sweet scent. It's a day trip worth indulging in.

Cathedral of Saint Domnius

Also known as the Saint Dujam, or Saint Duje; whatever you call it, just call in and relish the crisp white marble of the bell tower set against a bright blue sky.
