Discover the Best
Split is one of the Adriatic's most captivating destinations, where Roman grandeur meets contemporary elegance. Luxury here means uncompromising standards, refined service and addresses in genuinely prime locations — along the Riva promenade, overlooking the marina or a short walk from Diocletian's Palace. The hotels in our selection offer generous rooms and suites, well-chosen restaurants and rooftop bars perfectly positioned for sunsets over the islands. The spa facilities are among the finest in their class, and dedicated concierge teams arrange bespoke excursions to Hvar, Brač and secluded swimming spots known only to locals. Choose Split for a high-calibre base where culture, gastronomy and seaside relaxation flow effortlessly into one another.

Our Selection Criteria
Ratings and standards
We focused on officially five-star hotels under Croatia's classification system and verified quality through consistently strong guest scores — typically between 8.5 and 10.0 out of 10 — across leading booking platforms.
Distinctive advantages
Hotels with a genuine sense of character were given additional weight: iconic rooftop terraces with panoramic views, well-regarded spas (including the largest spa facility in the city), a connection to boating or marina life, and restaurants offering a seriously accomplished take on Dalmatian cuisine.
Location and surroundings
Our selection covers three prime areas: firstly, within or immediately adjacent to Diocletian's Palace for the closest possible immersion in history and city life; secondly, along the waterfront on the Riva and Zapadna obala with the marina as a backdrop; and thirdly, beachside addresses in or just outside the city centre for more of a resort atmosphere. Le Méridien Lav, for instance, offers a full resort experience roughly twenty minutes from the old town.
