[PLACES] Hvar by Valamar

The restaurant team made a lasting impression. Every day they greeted us with a smile, offered help with dishes and quick service, and were happy to chat. Breakfast was a highlight, fresh, varied, and delicious, with staff making sure everyone got what they wanted. The hotel is modern, well cared for, and well placed for exploring nearby areas. Throughout our stay we felt in good hands, thanks to the professional and friendly team and the warm, relaxing atmosphere. Their kindness and dedication are why we'll return. Highly recommended for a quality stay with great service.

The smallest and cheapest room was indeed very small. The bed was great, but the shower felt cramped and there wasn't enough room for our belongings. The hotel looked a little different from the advertising photos we saw when booking. Still, we had a lovely stay, especially because of the staff's kindness. Marina was our waiter for the week, and her friendliness and recommendations made our holiday. The staff were fantastic and helpful. The pool area was clean and pleasant, and you could see how hard the team worked to get it ready for the next day. Breakfast and dinner were good, with plenty of choice. The location is wonderful. Nearby Stari Grad is charming, with nice restaurants and lovely alleys full of shops. We rented a scooter, which I'd recommend for exploring the island. Another must-do is a table at Konoba Kokot in Dol, a beautiful local restaurant with amazing food and a cosy atmosphere.

The relaxed feel, without crowds, made this a great place for a proper holiday. The hotel was a pleasant surprise: modern, freshly renovated rooms that were extremely clean, with an unreal sea view. The staff were always smiling and ready to help, and the restaurant served a varied, delicious menu with lots of local specialties. I'd definitely come back.

The restaurant staff deserve special thanks. Their kindness, attention to detail, and coordination made every meal feel special. Breakfast was fresh and varied, and the attentive waiters were ready with recommendations, drink refills, or a friendly smile. The restaurant had a warm, relaxed atmosphere that made us feel valued. From the moment we arrived, the smiling, professional staff made us welcome. The hotel combined comfort, good amenities, and wonderful service, and the team's friendliness made our stay memorable. We'd gladly recommend it for a pleasant, relaxing holiday.
