“Excellent place to stay in beautiful Makarska!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 September 2010
2
people found this review helpful

This hotel was fantastic. We had a spacious room, very clean with a balcony overlooking the harbour. The view was perfect! The bed was really big and comfortable and the bathroom was great- good shower pressure is always a plus!

It is the best location in the sense that you are in the heart of Makarska. There are endless restaurants, cafes and bars surrounding the hotel. It is only a 5 minute walk to the main beach which has markets and cheap food/drink facilities.

The staff were all polite and helpful and we enjoyed the breakfast provided. The only thing missing in this place is a lift but that would not be a deterrent to staying here. It truly is a wonderful hotel in an amazing location.

“Shocking service at reception - both at check in and out”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 August 2010

people found this review helpful

We immediately felt very unwelcome when we arrived. There was no parking outside the hotel and when we enquired about this the male receptionist gave us a map of a very convoluted route to some obscure carpark in an old unfinished building site. We were gob smacked. He said "it's easy, you'll find it". We were totally lost. The last thing you feel like doing after a long drive is to drive around a foreign town looking for a carpark. We had been told be the manager, prior to our arrival, that our car would be parked for us.

When we checked out the same receptionist ommitted to tell us that we could park right outside in a reserved space so that we could load our luggage into it. We had to leave our son to guard our luggage, walk to the carpark in the unfinished building site, bring the car back to a park way down the road from the hotel and then lug all our bags down to the car. NOT GOOD!

He also wouldn't explain our lunch receipts - we had one lunch there, which for some reason produced five receipts written in Croatian. He was very flippant and said they were 'meals'. By this stage we couldn't be bothered pursuing anything further with him - it was just too hard. So we paid for the five receipts.

Our room was "inch around the bed" material - and that's with our suitcases standing up. We paid alot extra to have our son in our room (it cost NZ$475 for one night!) and it was a ridiculous squeeze. Our deck was disgusting, it was a storage place for old hoses. We couldn't believe our eyes. We had to keep the curtains closed.

“I will go back”

It is a very nice hotel, friendly staff, delicious breakfast. Not far from the beach side. Safe parking. It has a restaurant for lunch and dinner. The 1st floor room (sea side) is well soundproofed.

“A good 3 star!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 April 2010
2
people found this review helpful

Having got over the shock of staying in a 3 star Hotel, we were pleasantly surprsed.
The location is great- right on the promenade, the rooms are basic but clean and the TVs work. The Hotel has a good Pizza restaurant and a cafe on the sea front that is popular with the locals. The only disappointment is breakfast which is a tad lack lustre in terms of quality, products and service.
Overall the town is delightful and the Hotel's location makes up for the short comings.....
Try and get a room on the front on the top floor (3) but remember there is no lift!
Go explore!
