Most Romantic Hotels in Split (2026)

A beautifully conceived boutique hotel within the Palace walls whose Roman, Renaissance, and 19th-century architectural layers are celebrated rather than concealed — stone arches frame designer bathrooms, original Dalmatian paving runs beneath bespoke furniture. The unique positioning of the Deluxe double room offers you an opportunity to enjoy a view of the Palace, Cathedral and Peristyle square from the comfort of your room — in the middle of everything, yet private and tucked away.

Set on the pine-forested Marjan Peninsula with direct access to a private beach, the Radisson Blu delivers the Dalmatian resort experience with five-star polish. The infinity pool merging into the Adriatic, the full-service Sensea Spa, and panoramic sea-view rooms are matched by a 20-minute promenade walk to Diocletian's Palace. It is the definitive balance of resort serenity and city convenience.

Split's grande dame since 1921, Hotel Park occupies a prime position on the Bačvice seafront promenade with sweeping views across the harbour and islands. The recently renovated rooms in the historic building retain inter-war elegance; the terrace restaurant's Dalmatian seafood menu draws as many locals as hotel guests, which says everything about its quality.

A design-forward boutique embedded deep within the Palace labyrinth, Sugar Hotel achieves something remarkable: warm, contemporary interiors within 2,000 year-old Roman walls, creating a sensory dialogue between past and present. The intimate rooftop is a magical after-dinner retreat, and the breakfast — featuring Dalmatian honey, prosciutto, and sheep's cheese — is the neighbourhood's finest.

The Cornaro occupies a refined position at the base of the Palace walls on Sinjska Street — named for the Venetian-era Cornaro family who once administered Dalmatia. The hotel's rooftop pool and bar deliver the best aerial view of the Palace exterior and Cathedral tower in the city, while the spa and polished service make it a strong all-rounder.

A slick design hotel on the Riva waterfront promenade whose floor-to-ceiling windows frame the harbour and distant islands in living photographs. The modern rooms are confidently styled; the ground-floor restaurant spills onto the Riva terrace in a perfect expression of Split's café-and-sea culture. An excellent choice for those who prioritise sea views over Palace immersion.
