Modern and Clean with Amazing Staff
Pros:

The staff is amazing - helping us navigate the city, recommending restaurants, and making car arrangements to the airport with a special breakfast since we had an early departure. Good location.

Tips: remember to tell hotel when you arrive at the walled city so they can help navigate through steps and hallways.

Beautiful experience with a lovely hotel and exceptional staff
Pros:

Lovely location
We were at Villa Doric
The rooms are a tad small.The staff are excellent.
We found there was no kettle in the room
We asked for one and got it promptly
One word of warning
There are stairs everywhere. They are steep.So be careful lugging your suitcase
We are vegetarian
The first day we were off for a boat trip
The staff packed us a baguette each with some fruit and yogurt
Thoughtful right?
Overall very nice place

Cons:

Like I said be aware of stairs and don’t expect large rooms

Location can’t get more central or the staff more helpful!
Pros:

Excellent location and the most helpful and proactive staff. The hot water wasn’t working the first day and the staff made sure it was sorted asap. Excellent restaurant recommendations provided as well. Breakfast in the square with music driving in from the singers in the Vestibule will be a core memory of Split.

Cons:

Towel rack was unusually high. Odd placement for a loft duplex which taller people are unlikely to book. Still, this is an easy fix and everything else was great.

Excellent staff and accommodations
Pros:

Excellent location right in the palace. Very helpful staff who come to meet you to navigate from the Riva. But easy to find once you have been shown the way. Beautiful incorporation of the old palace walls into the room. Great breakfast. We frequently heard the Klapa singers who were plying their trade in the nearby vestibule which was a wonderful bonus. (But they only do this during waking hours.) It is very easy to recommend a stay here.

Cons:

No concerns.
