After starting our honeymoon at a gorgeous hotel in Dubrovnik, we flew into Pula after a brief stop in Zagreb. The Park Plaza Belvadere in Medulin was a 250 Kuna (~$45) cab ride away. Our room was relatively spacious and the people at the reception desk in the lobby were friendly and helpful. The pool and hotel beach were crowded but very nice, and the food at the hotel beach bar was excellent! However, there were some shortcomings:
- the Superior room was on the ground floor and the balcony wasn’t private
- dim lighting, even after our missing lightbulb was replaced upon request
- very limited housekeeping service. Glasses/coffee mugs were not replaced after use and towels on the floor were not removed
- double bed was two twin beds pushed together, and those beds rolled away from each other very easily. This seems to be common in Croatia.
- there was a blood stain on our chair
- no bathtub (only shower)
The hotel breakfast had a large selection of items but was quite crowded. The dinner buffet was adequate.
