    Room although comfortable was very compact & ok for 2 small suitcases if you put them under bed. I didn’t receive a really nice complimentary birthday cake on arrival which was a lovely touch but overall staff not very friendly.

    Great uphill location, easy walking distance to all sites, port, bars & restaurants. Bed very comfortable. Nice shower & toiletries. Breakfast excellent with huge choice. Restaurant seating area lovely also & very spacious. Lovely pool.

    Shower slightly leaked onto the floor no matter which way the door opened but nothing major.

    Loved the hotel and pool facilities! Bed was very comfortable and spacious room. We originally planned to stay two nights but extended it as we loved hvar and our hotel so much! A fantastic spread was laid out for breakfast. Close to Hvar town - approx 5-10 mins walk, there is an approx 11 min walk from ferry to hotel mostly flat and then last 5 mins uphill which isn’t the worst compared to other places I’ve stayed! Might not be suitable for those with mobility issues unless you get an uber to accommodation.

    The only minus for us was that the rooms were not soundproof at all. This really affected our sleeping quality as we were woken up by drunk people coming home throughout the night, and people leaving their rooms early in the morning.

    Great hotel with central location close to both beach and Hvar town centre. Brilliant pool area, nice rooms and good breakfast.

    Nothing, all good

    Very modern and clean property. Rooms small but perfect for what you need. Nice location, easy walk down to the port and sea. It is up a hill on way back, so may not be easy if you have mobility issues. Lovely variety of food, on offer at the breakfast buffet. Tea/coffee in the room would be a nice added touch, but we did know this wasn’t in the rooms upon booking. Rooms have mini bar (chargeable) so there is a fridge in the room, to be able to store your own food/snacks in. A great hotel, in a beautiful location.

    We had a Seaview room which we are happy to pay extra for, however, this was largely spoilt by a view of the roof of the restaraunt ( air con units/solar panels etc). Other blocks at the hotel would have full views which I feel is unfair given that ( I'm assuming) sea views are all the same price ( in the booking procedure there was no option to pay for full/ partial etc). If I was to stay here again I would request an unobstructed view so my advise would be to ask for that when you check in.

    The location of the hotel is great, it's 10 mins or so to walk into Hvar which is a fantastic town. The pool area was really good- always beds available despite the hotel being very busy. Breakfast had a really good selection but due to being buffet style was always a bit cold unless you were lucky enough to get something as it just came out. Rooms were comfy and although it doesn't mention in the description, you get a large minibar which is great to use as a fridge.

    Overall okay but I think a bit overpriced for the quality: rooms not well maintained, no kettle or even glasses, no bins in the room and very basic furnitures. Rooms are not super clean: I had huge spider webs on the ceilings, towels were very old and daily cleaning was not really done. Breakfast is good but only instant coffee is available (!).

    The hotel is modern, room and bathroom spacious enough and pool is nice. 10 minutes walk from the center. As the name suggests, the hotel is on a hill but it is fine unless you have mobility issues. Staff was nice. No issues with noise.

    The walls between the rooms are thin and you can easily hear what other people do. Hotel is located on the uphill, so it can be challenging if you have heavy luggage. Our room was quite small.

    We were really satisfied with the hotel. Looks even better alive. Room was clean and with nice view to the sea. Breakfast was excellent; I was surprised they had three types of vegan milk, plus nuts and seeds. Calm location. You have approximately 10 min walking till the port. You also get towels for the pool, but you can also take them to the beach.

    It's a beautiful pool area and you would expect a nice relaxing lounge music to create a nice vibe, not loud pop radio with Britney, Spice Girls and the likes. The speakers are all around the pool area and are quite loud so there is nowhere to hide and you would hear it even through your earphones. Many people complained but the staff didn't do anything about it. We ended up going to the pool only once and went to the beach clubs for the rest of our stay

    It's a nice new hotel with great facilities and pool area. The breakfast was really good with plenty of choice and variety. Great sea views and only a short pleasant walk to the town

    Ticked all boxes really.

    Overall this hotel has a nice feeling to it. It’s no frills but everything is clean and well kept together. The hotel has a feeling of being fairly new with no visible signs of wear or tear. Staff were very friendly. Breakfast had a decent number of options and was available during a 3 hour window so plenty of time. The pool was clean and tidy and towels were provided. There was a little bit of noise transfer in the rooms but nothing too bad.

    It can get quite busy at breakfast time, so recommend getting there early to avoid the breakfast rush! The walk from the port to the hotel is up quite a few steps through town and up a further hill, so can be quite tiring, especially if you have luggage. The bar service was a bit slow at times, but the food and drinks were fabulous.

    The hotel is in a great location, but quite hilly to get there. It has a lovely restaurant serving a great breakfast and tasty evening meals. There is also a superb pool bar serving lovely food if you're chilling around the pool. The pool itself is great and water is a good temperature. The rooms are well equipped with a mini bar, snacks, and a fridge. There's a nice ambience at the hotel, and it is stylishly laid out. The pool / Seaview rooms have great views. The Hvar Beach Club and the popular Hula Hula bar are close to the hotel if you want to enjoy some sundowners. The staff at the hotel are friendly and helpful. I would recommend a stay at this hotel if you're visiting Hvar.

    €50 per night room damage deposit! Poor service in the bar. Waited ages to order drinks. Eventually went to bar to order. Told waiter service. Waited ages once ordered. Eventually fetched drinks myself as they’d been sitting on the bar ages. Waiter then added tip to our bill with out asking!!
