Wonderful hotel. Quaint room within the confines of Old Split. Close to everything yet set in a quiet corner near the palace. First rate amenities with service to match. Friendly staff willing to accommodate your every need. A must stay in Split.

A Seamless Stay in the Heart of Split
We had a wonderful (albeit short) two-night stay at Hotel Vestibul Palace. The service from Ivan and the entire team was truly outstanding — warm, attentive, and incredibly helpful from start to finish.
While the hotel can be a bit tricky to navigate due to its location within the historic center, the staff made it completely stress-free. They guided us step-by-step, including helping with luggage from the parking lot directly to our room — a level of service we deeply appreciated.
The facilities were clean, thoughtfully designed, and elevated in every way — a perfect blend of modern comfort and old-town charm.
We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Hotel Vestibul to anyone visiting Split!

Couldn’t imagine any place better!
The location could not be more perfect, within the palace walls. Staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful and made parking simple and straightforward, even though it is in a pedestrian zone in the busiest part of the city. Breakfast is wonderful and delicious!

Firstly the service was impeccable and impressive. Ivan and entourage met us at our vehicle, collected luggage and Ivan guided us into the old city and proceed to give a tour of the area. The entire time we were there staff were beyond helpful.

Very much enjoyed the stay here. Very friendly team - sent welcome and check in messages. We should have taken advantage of their offer of help as the hotel is not easy to find but it has a fantastic location. Small but very comfortable room and excellent breakfast.

Our stay at Hotel Vestibule Palace was excellent. There are two sites: the main hotel, inside the walls of the old palace, and Villa Dobric, just outside the walls of the palace.
