Above and Beyond!

We really enjoyed our time at Hotel Vestibul, but it was much too short. In spite of our short stay, the staff was immensely helpful in assisting with complicated transfers prior to our arrival. The private driver company they work with is top-notch, and went above and beyond. Once at the fabulous small hotel, we were warmly welcomed to the perfect location and fabulous accommodations. The reception staff personally carried our bags up the hotel, as well as to our rooms. The breakfast was phenomenal. Definitely will return.

This place was amazing! The history of it's location is mind blowing. Transportation is easy, the bus station is right down the road as well as taxi service all day. I didn't fly into Split but I did see an airport shuttle. The customer service was above and beyond as well! They made me feel very welcomed and the stay that much more enjoyable. I expected a lot out of my trip and it was better than I could have expected. I will most definitely be back! Thank you to everyone that made it possible!

A beautiful property in the heart of the old Roman city. Staff were especially kind and helpful. The room was spacious and extremely comfortable with room clean daily.

There are not many, if any, places in the world where you can stay in a hotel, built into a Roman palace constructed in 305 AD. This is a UNESCO certified sight. This alone makes it a bucket list hotel. The staff were unbelievably friendly, welcoming, never said no to any requests. Eleven rooms total, so you are just a number here. You will be Treated liked royalty. They even have a licensed guide on staff that you can hire when he finishes his shift. His name is Tonchi, and he can give you the entire history of the area, the culture, the conquests of the area dating back to the time of Christ. He’s also the manager of food service, and the food is wonderful If you are looking for a regular sized, been there, done that hotel room, go to a Hilton. If you want to experience a piece of history, pack your bags.

Great location, beautiful room and exceptional customer service. We went to the wrong section of the hotel, so they organised to have our, rather heavy, bags taken to our room. We had dinner at the hotel’s restaurant and sat outside in the beautiful courtyard. The food was delicious and our waiter, Moreno, was absolutely lovely and he had incredible knowledge of Croatia - which was fascinating to hear. Moreno also served us breakfast the next morning and his customer service is exceptional, other guests beside us also commented the same - he is definitely an asset to the hotel. He made us feel so welcome and our stay a memorable one.
The salmon for breakfast was outstanding.

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!

Ikke som forventet - bra service + frokost

Bra service - hvis du bestiller villa dobric så må du gå en god stund før du faktisk finner «søster hotellet» ingen informasjon om dette på forhånd. Veldig mye støy inne i leilighetene så ikke book dette om du skal sove. Utover det fin service og god frokost.
