Guesthouse Pjaceta

The rooms aren't huge, which makes sense for a place in the heart of Split old town, but the space is used well and everything you need is there. It feels modern, the showers and AC work well, and the beds were better than anywhere I've stayed in Croatia. The fairly new windows have great insulation, which really helps when you're sleeping in the old town. I'd recommend it to anyone staying in Split who's okay with steep stairs.

We stayed in a spotless deluxe apartment that had been recently renovated. The staff were friendly and incredibly helpful. The terrace is lovely, quiet and tucked away, though it’s shared with other guests, so it isn’t fully private. One thing to know: the private bathroom door is glass, so you’ll want to be comfortable with your partner.

The bed was comfortable, the water was hot, the air conditioning was excellent, and the staff were friendly. Breakfast options were very limited, and smoking was still allowed in the bar area while drinks were being made. It was decent value, but the online picture looked nothing like the guesthouse.

The rooms have everything you need, from shower products to Wi-Fi and air conditioning. It’s a brilliant spot right in the heart of town, and I couldn’t have asked for more. There’s a great bar downstairs with excellent cocktails, and that’s also where breakfast is served.
