Hotel is brand new and beautiful but immediate surroundings not so appealing. However, the Zadar island is only a few blocks away and it’s easy to walk to from the hotel. Breakfast was great and the hotel’s personnel is kind and helpful.

Fabulous hotel.
"The most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in. Friendly staff. Fabulous breakfast. Extremely clean. Decent size room. Only criticism is of the untidy area around the hotel. But the hotel itself, faultless. And a great location with a very short walk to the old town. We’ll be staying there again."
