Art Hotel Kalelarga

Art Hotel Kalelarga

10/10 Excellent
"Very central location and entirely relaxing stay (very much needed given August heat and heavy Zadar tourist traffic). Room was very spacious, calming, bed very comfortable, bathroom generously sized and everything worked. Staff were efficient and friendly. Breakfast was very generous. A bit or a luxury/pricey, but would seek to stay again."

"We stayed for 2 nights at this excellent small hotel. The staff were very welcoming and exceptionally helpful. The dining was great, both at the included breakfast and also in the hotel's Kastel restaurant. Our room on the 3rd floor was large, comfortable and well air-conditioned. The main attractions of the Old Town of Zadar (Sea Organ, Roman Forum, St. Anastasia Cathedral, a range of good restaurants, etc.) are all within an easy walk. I see someone else posted complaint about noise from a bar across the street. Yes, you could hear it if your room faced the street and harbour as ours did; but it stopped both nights by 11pm, so was not really a problem for sleeping."

"The hotel is in a great location just outside the old town with a beach just down the hill. The rooms are very clean with modern bathrooms. In hindsight we should probably have gone for a room with a balcony so if you're considering one I think it will probably be worth it. Breakfast is excellent with a cold buffet and more hot options available to order, plenty of options for vegetarians. The pool area is great and we had no issues finding available sun loungers while we were there. The staff is very friendly and efficient both in the reception and at breakfast."

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent hostel. Beds were well spaced out and had privacy screens. Each bed had a large wardrobe style locker. The bunk beds well in built and had easy access steps as opposed to a ladder. Showers and toilets were clean. I was conscious that there were only 2 female showers on our floor but I never had to wait, and there might have been more down the corridor. Air con was very effective. I was able to leave my luggage and baggage at reception before and after check in and my passport could be stored in a safe at reception. The breakfast at Eden cafe was included and it was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend."
