“Pleasant surprise”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 October 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Stayed here for two nights. Located about a ten minute drive from the heart of split. Rooms were modern and clean. We stayed in a non sea view (or cheapest room) and it was a little small but had everything we needed including a small balcony. Our traveling companions booked a sea view room. I would recommend the upgraded room as it was much larger, included a bath tub, sitting area and awesome sea views off the balcony. The staffs were very helpful, even letting us leave our luggage and use the hotel grounds after we had checked out. They also provided a free bottle of wine to celebrate a personal event. The restraurant was excellent. Our waiter was really fun. Breakfast was amazing with more options than one could try in a week. The beach was great with a swimming area, crystal clear water and pebble beach (sandy beeches are not that common in Croatia). lots of restraurants, a small grocery and a marina with boat rentals etc is within a short walk. Split is absolutely beautiful, interesting to explore and was easy to get to by car.

Room Tip: Pay the extra for a sea view room

“Not so bed, but renovation needed...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 October 2011

Hotel is situated ca. 7 km from Split. It is nice peaceful place, but near main road (can be a bit noisy)...
Small family run hotel, I like hotels this size, but I think that owners need to think about how to refresh furniture e.g. and invest in main building. We staid in hotel (main building) and you can feel like stale air everywhere... In room, restaurant.... New next building (annex) look much better outside.
Staff is friendly, especially receptionists. Restaurant staff can be a bit more smiling, but they are also fine.

“Great Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 September 2011

people found this review helpful

I have just arrived home from a most enjoyable stay at Hotel San Antonio where I spent 1 week with my sister. We found the rooms clean and spacious (we were staying in the Hotel Gala annex) no sea view however this did not concern us as we were not spending much time in the room. The bathrooms were cleaned daily and were faultless. The breakfast was adequate - tea, bread and jam, fruit, sausages, eggs etc (had to ask for ketchup though!!) The restaurant menu was limited but when we did eat there it was nice - there is a lovely restaurant next door though (much cheaper!) The staff were brilliant from the receptionists to the chambermaids - all very polite and friendly. The bar staff were great, very friendly and funny all with fluent english (can make a great jaeger bomb!!!!) All in all we had a brilliant holiday and I would highly recommend Hotel San Antonio.

“Terrible”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 September 2011

The only positive thing I can say about this hotel is that the rooms had a nice sea view, were comfortable and there was a big TV. There is nothing else to say. Don't let their website fool you like me!

Just on the area, Podstrana. This is approximately 10km from the centre of Split, about 140kuna in a taxi. There is a bus service, but I don't know how often it runs. There is nothing to do in this area. It is not a resort. We found one excellent restaurant under the Le Meridien Hotel (which is where you should stay if you do decide to go) which is about a 10 minute walk from the San Antonio. This was the best food we had in Split and Hvar, so if you do go here then visit the Leons restaurant.

The San Antonio hotel: bathrooms are see through to the bedroom (not good for families), the balcony doors in our room did not lock (and the manager/owner did not care either), towels were all hard and the maid didnt clean the room, just made the bed, walls very thin so could hear the neighbours full conversation. The breakfast was awful (milk cartons on the side for cereal, cereal all over the table cloths, meat which looked off, hot food which looked like it had sat there all night etc). Dinner - based on breakfast did not bother. The gym was a box room with old machines and only the running machine worked, the bar by the pool was not open and the spa was a room with a treatment bed and CD player. The beach area was just sun beds on the stones with some unmbrellas - which were extra!

Just avoid! Go to the Le Meridien if you want to stay in this area. We wish we did.

“A friendly place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 September 2011

person found this review helpful

We were staying in the annex of the San Antonio Hotel, which is called the Beach Hotel. It only has around 10 rooms and we were occupying 3. Our room was right on the beach, in fact small pebbles beach, with a big terrace. The room itself was very nice, spacious, nice bathroom, clean and modern decoration but cigarette's smell was very strong. The staff was really helpful and nice with the children, the restaurant's food was good and price reasonable.
This is a nice and convenient place to stay, only 10mn drive from Split, right on the seaside, with a friendly and easy family atmosphere.

Room Tip: Ask them for rooms in Beach Hotel instead of San Antonio. It's just next to it, with the same fa...
