This iconic five-star hotel is located in a smart and leafy residential part of Split, just a few minutes’ walk from Bacvice beach and under 10 minutes to the pedestrianised Riva seafront promenade. This is where Roman Emperor Diocletian chose to construct his retirement villa, in reality, it’s a grand palace and now forms the old city.
Luxurious? Certainly. Attentive staff? No question. Glamorous? Absolutely and yet without any aura of stuffiness. This is an iconic hotel of which local Split people are justifiably proud. There’s also a feeling of a past jet-set area with décor that oozes style and stories.
Built in 1912, the style is Art Deco, rooms and public areas have high ceilings and chandeliers are in abundance. Rooms mostly have the original parquet floor. It is charming and a most sought-after hotel.
The outside area is a tranquil spot without any of the noise of Croatia’s second city. The outdoor palm terrace has comfortable seating, tables and chairs, and there are sunbeds, pool towels at the compact outdoor pool together with a pool bar for drinks and snacks.
The “glass garden” conservatory is an extension to the restaurant with huge statues made of local Brac stone encased in glass.
The hotel's Fitness and Wellness centre includes a gym, sauna, relax room and massage rooms, where a range of treatments can be offered (payable locally)
Hotel Park is open year-round and makes a great two centre winter break combining Zagreb the capital for a few days with a few days on the coast in Split. Domestic flight with a flight time of 45 minutes.
