Hvar Old Town Vacations from $908

Can I Be Frank ! It was a luxury to be in Split at the Riva Luxury rooms. Loved the location with so many restaurants options within a 2 minute walk: Just up front you can find a well stocked grocery store! taxi and buses less than a minute away; beautiful view of harbour and less than 10 minutes walk to other side of harbour (walking the promenade was a highlight everytime), , very clean room service and great AC for those hot days A special thanks to Branko for driving from and to Airport. and YES We would return to the same RIVA LUXURY Room (on 2nd fl) :-)

Excellent hotel. I plan to return. I recommend it! The quality of the building is very good. The room we had (junior suite) was well laid out. The bathroom was very nice. Only downside was that it did not have a bathtub; it was a shower only. But it was a nice shower. There is a hot tub and sauna that is bookable. We did that and enjoyed it. The staff are very professional and nice. They speak fluent English. In particular, I want to give recognition to the hard working Diana in the restaurant. The breakfasts every day were very helpful. Plenty of options. We always ate a big breakfast to fuel our long days of Croatia exploration. There is a rooftop cafe! The only downside of this hotel is its location. It is fine and I have no problem with it. However, it is not "walkable" for some people. For me, no problem. We walked to Diocletian's Palace in about 20 -- 25 minutes. There are two short turns and then a main street takes you directly to the old part of the city. The advantage of the hotel location is also that it's easy to take a car into town or out of town. It's a ~$10 Uber ride to the ferry or Palace. It's also easy to get onto the road and towards places outside of Split, like the Fortress or onwards to Trogir, etc. Overall, I actually think the location is decent. One side of the hotel faces a busy road, so perhaps choose the other side if that's an issue for you. We faced the road but found it to be quiet at night. Overall, this was a very positive experience!

Great breakfast with lots of options and helpful staff

Excellent hotel and staff. Great location, benefiting from Split's historic Diocletian Palace.

Within walkable distance to promenade and touristic area. The noise from the cars at night was a bit of a let down.
