This place is in the best location that no other hotel can beat as its within the walled town. The hotel staff were great and helped us in every possible way. They even parked our car for us as we had no idea where to park it.

The downsides were that the room was a bit small, no air con and our double bed was two singles pushed together.

However if you can get past this then you will love it. It truely is a well placed hotel. Also the restaurant serves the best food beeting all its rivals in my opinion.

The Peristil hotel is in the heart of the historical center of the city of Split. We had a room that overlooked the square. There were a couple of windows in the room with beautiful views. The hotel was upgraded recently, so our bed area and bathroom were modern and comfortable. In the morning the breakfast was what you wanted off the menu. There was a wide selection and it was all delicious. The staff was great. There is not an elevator, but the staff will bring your luggage up and down the stairs. The front desk woman was very helpful When we checked out we needed to leave our luggage for a few hours while we explored Split, and she told us not to worry about leaving our luggage and it was okay to use their facility (toliets, etc) until we needed to leave. Since the hotel is in the heart of the city, it was easy to walk around Split. The only thing that needs to be mention is, if you take a taxi to the hotel, the taxi can not drop you off at the hotel. You will need to walk about 3 minutes with your luggage to the hotel. But it is so worth the walk. If you are in Split, this is the hotel to stay in.

I stayed in a single room in this hotel and, while it was your basic room, everything was more than adequate, even the small bathroom. I loved that I could hear everything going on in the city in my room, if I left the windows open; the choir singing in the church, church bells, people laughing in the streets. My room was cleaned daily, I felt very looked after as a young 30 year old female travelling by myself. The hotel staff was more than helpful, going above and beyond to make me feel looked after since I was on my own. The location is within walking distance to everything. I only took a bus from the airport to the downtown terminal and never needed a taxi or another bus until I left for another island. Lastly, I reserved my hotel over email and appreciated the quick replies I received in return to each of my inquiries.

We particularly wanted to stay within the walls of Diocletian's Palace because this was our reason for visiting Split. The hotel's position is amazing (though as we had single rooms we didn't get to stay in the rooms with the palace walls as part of their structure), and the staff couldn't have been more helpful or pleasant. The rooms are comfortable and well-equipped and the breakfast is lovely, though the one evening meal we had there was a little disappointing.

If I ever go back to Split I will certainly stay there again - it really was one of the most memorable hotels I have ever visited.
