Les Meilleurs Hôtels à Zadar
Zadar is the Dalmatian coast's best-kept secret—a walled Roman city where the Sun Salutation art installation glows each dusk and Alfred Hitchcock once called the island sunsets the finest in the world. The hotel scene reflects that dual identity: boutique conversions inside the medieval fortifications share the market with family-run seafront properties and slick modern resorts along the Borik beach strip north of the old town. What makes Zadar exceptional for travelers is scale—you can walk the entire ancient core in twenty minutes, then cross to the mainland marina for cocktails as the lights of the Kornati islands shimmer in the distance. For anyone searching for the best hotels in Croatia beyond Dubrovnik's crowds, Zadar offers substance, soul and serious value.

When is the best time to visit Zadar?
Shoulder season — typically spring (March–May) and early autumn (September–October) — offers the best balance of good weather, lower hotel rates, and manageable crowds.

What neighbourhood should I stay in for my first visit to Zadar?
For first-time visitors, the city centre or historic quarter offers the best combination of walkability, restaurants, and access to main attractions. Once you know the city, neighbourhood hotels often offer better value and a more authentic experience. All the hotels in our guide include neighbourhood notes to help you choose.
