in this hotel they welcomed us as presidents. The rooms are clean down to the last detail, the maids are very friendly. Clean towels twice a day which is great. Food delivery to the room 0-24. If necessary, we ordered private transportation for a tour of the city and places in the surrounding area. recommendations for this.
First off, the good: Great location Wonderful made to order breakfast Amazing room with beautiful artwork, stunning floors, comfy bed, great view of the water Very spacious with modern aesthetic Hot water and coffee service outside your room I would have given this place a 5 star rating if it wasn’t for the credit card issue I encountered. Out of all the places we stayed, and we stayed 6 places during our trip, this was the only one who used a credit card machine that didn’t automatically charge me in euros and provided a confusing message asking if it was euros or US dollars without explaining what that meant. I assumed it meant if my credit card was from a US bank…. Guess I should have asked more clarification questions as I ended up having to pay an extra $100 in USD on top of my room cost, which was way above what they even listed as their conversion fees on the receipt. This was part of the Dynamic Currency Conversion scam and unfortunately I fell for it. When I reached out to them to ask them if they could refund and re-run it in Euros as a mistake was made, and that they charged over what conversion rate was listed on their receipt, they said there was nothing they could do. Unfortunately this soured what would have been a great hotel for us.
Firstly, I wouldn't recommend these rooms if you have a car. The carpark was a bit tricky to find and was absolutely full when we arrived, with people double-parked everywhere. Luckily someone left while we were hanging around - but this is just an ordinary uncovered public carpark and so we didn't feel the car was very secure. However, the rooms were only a 4 minute easy walk away - and we were met at the door by the host. You have to carry your bags up 2 flights of stairs, but the rooms themselves were well appointed. We appreciated the plates, glasses and breakfast things that were there. Everything was very luxurious and the bathroom was small, but had an excellent shower. The bed was comfortable, but you have to keep in mind that the rooms are in the centre of town and it can get noisy if you want the window open. The location is great - close to all the sights and lots of cafes, supermarkets, bakeries and souvenir shops.
Well ,what a wonderful campsite we have a caravan, arrival a bit chaotic as it was a holiday weekend, never the less we were given a wonderful pitch after turning down a couple. It is often when things go wrong you see the “measure” of somewhere. I fell off my bike and really hurt my knee, asked reception if they had any crutches in lost property, no they did not, but someone would come. Within minutes a buggy carrying a wheelchair had arrived along with a set of keys for a private bathroom so my husband could help me, no extra charge, also helped me to order some crutches online to be delivered to the campsite. Facilities were spotless, modern and with lots of extra touches, who knew dishwashers available, OK at a cost but even so. Bar staff excellent even told me of a local vineyard to visit for their fab Rose, sadly could not do this due to knee, food a really high standard for a campsite. Pool all open, with sun beds out in neat rows every morning. Not sure who does their staff training but it is excellent, “yes” is their answer, “how can we help”. Spa looked fab, but again could not use, great bike ride to Zadar if you don’t mess about and fall off. Beach etc , in fact everywhere dog friendly bars etc. One of the best if not the bast campsite we have ever stayed on and we have stayed at a few, such a shame such a long way from the UK.
