Your guide to the best luxury hotels in Split
Radisson Blu Resort Split · ZnjanFor this guide we have gathered the best hotels in Split: two luxury hotels, from 120 euros a night.At no extra cost: booking through suitespot costs the same as booking direct with the hotel – the benefits come on top, free of charge.
Two luxury hotels in Split – and what each stands for
The two luxury hotels in Split cost 120 € and 140 € a night. That is 20 euros apart – and still two very different bookings.
Vestibul Palace Split · SplitThe Radisson Blu Resort Split sits in the Znjan quarter and belongs to Radisson Rewards; there the suitespot benefits apply from the first night.
The Vestibul Palace Split sits in the old town, asks for two nights – and grants its benefits independently of any programme membership.
Our travel advisors’ insider tip
The two hotels are mirror images of each other.
The Radisson Blu Resort Split carries ten categories. Eight of them name an outlook – six times the sea, twice the city.
The Vestibul Palace Split carries seven categories. They measure 20, 21, three times 24, 35 and 45 square metres. An outlook is named by exactly one, and it says only the word View.
One hotel knows where it looks. The other knows how big it is. Neither knows both.
For your booking that means: the question your hotel does not answer, we ask for you. At the Radisson Blu Resort Split our travel advisors have the floor area confirmed before you book; at the Vestibul Palace Split the outlook. Either is one enquiry and costs you nothing.
And with the sea the precision pays twice over: the six sea-view categories at the Radisson Blu Resort Split are spread across every size step – from the Premium Room to the Penthouse Suite. You do not have to take the largest category to get the view.
Where to stay in Split: Znjan or the old town
Split is a city inside a palace, and the two hotels stand in very different places.
In the old town stands the Vestibul Palace Split from 140 €. Its address is the street Iza Vestibula – named after the vestibule, the domed room through which the Roman imperial palace was entered. Our recommendation for anyone who wants to stand among the ancient walls before everyone else does.
In the Znjan quarter stands the Radisson Blu Resort Split from 120 €, the lower entry price and at the same time the hotel with the wider choice. Our recommendation for anyone to whom the water matters more than the walk into town.
Two categories at the Vestibul Palace Split carry a villa in their name – the Villa Dobrić. How far it sits from the main building is worth checking in advance. Ask us about it if one of those two categories is on your list.
17 categories: the best hotels in Split from the inside
Together the best hotels in Split offer 17 categories. That is few, and it is exactly why every single one can be named here.
At the Radisson Blu Resort Split there are ten: five rooms and five suites.
Six of them face the sea – and they sit on every step: the Premium Room, the Superior Room, the Suite, the Premium Suite, the Superior Suite and the Penthouse Suite. Two Superior Rooms face the city.
At the Vestibul Palace Split there are seven:
• the Luxury Suite at 45 square metres
• the Suite at 35
• three Superior Rooms at 24 each, one of them in the Villa Dobrić
• the Standard Villa at 21
• the Standard Room at 20
Between the smallest and the largest category lie 25 square metres – so here you can choose precisely by size.
What a night at a luxury hotel in Split costs
A night at a 5-star hotel in Split costs 120 € or 140 €.
| Luxury hotel | From | suitespot benefits from |
|---|---|---|
| Radisson Blu Resort Split | 120 € | 1st night |
| Vestibul Palace Split | 140 € | 2 nights |
At the Radisson Blu Resort Split the benefits apply from the first night, at the Vestibul Palace Split from two nights. If you are staying longer anyway the difference does not matter; for a single night it does.
When it is at its best: in May and June and in September and October. The sea is warm enough then, the evenings are long, and the old town can be walked rather than squeezed through.
High summer is swimming season – Znjan has its own beach, and the evenings run well past midnight. Our recommendation for anyone who wants both, the city and the water.
Winter has an argument the other seasons do not: Diocletian’s Palace then belongs to the people who live in it. Our recommendation for a second visit.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in the quietest week of the year exactly as in the busiest.
Breakfast, hotel credit and exclusive services at a 5-star hotel
At both hotels breakfast for two people is included, as is the upgrade on arrival subject to availability and early check-in and late check-out subject to availability.
