Villa Nora Hvar

"Loved this hotel- not only was it convenient to the town but the breakfast was hearty. The proprietor was gracious and was extremely helpful in transferring luggage to our next location. Wished we could have stayed longer to enjoy the hospitality."

Heritage Hotel Park Hvar

"Big loft apartment for 2 couples. Really nice living area to hang out together. Location was really close to restaurants and square."

Hotel Sirena Hvar

"We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Sirena. We stayed for 3 nights and we paid for half board (breakfast & dinner) and a seafront room, which had a lovely view. The rooms in the hotel were simple, but clean and well kept. The beds were comfy and there was enough storage for our belongings. I would definitely recommend the seafront rooms, as we had a gorgeous room. A complaint would be the lack of plugs in the room, however this can easily be overcome by an extender. Yes, the rooms are slightly "dated", but we weren't there for the rooms! They were comfy, clean and had great aircon. We really enjoyed the buffet breakfast and dinners. The breakfast was largely the same each morning with a few alterations. It included meats, cheese, bread, eggs, sausages, bacon, croissants, etc. The dinner was different each night, but typically included a few choices of meats, vegetables, salad, grains, chips/potatoes. There were also cakes and fruit for dessert which were nice. It isn't anything fancy and may not appeal to a fussy eater (coming from the UK that is). However, the food quality was good and we filled up every night. Our favourite thing was the calamari on our second night. The staff were always pleasant and helpful when needed. There is 24/7 on the front desk, and they speak good English if necessary. We received a warm welcome on arrival. One complaint would be the lack of Wi-Fi in the rooms. However, data service worked fine for us, and there was Wi-Fi in the beach bar & restaurant area. It didn't hinder our trip too much. Our favourite part about the hotel was the location. It is right by the coast and has its own little beach essentially for the hotel. The sunbeds had no cost and you could be from your room to sunbathing by the clear waters within 2 minutes. Though people do save sun loungers with their towels, it wasn't crazy. You could wander down there at midday and get a spot. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Sirena. Reading through other reviews, I can understand the complaints but I think people should be a little more open minded to the positives of the hotel. Hvar is dominated by expensive hotels/restaurants, and to be able to stay on this beautiful island in a more financially accessible hotel is fantastic. I think if you are travelling from far and this is your only pitstop, I could understand why you would be unhappy. It is also quite far from the old town, and many are not capable of making a 25 min journey full of hills/steps (you can get a taxi if you need though and they aren't expensive!). This hotel isn't luxury, but not every hotel needs to be. We stayed for 3 nights to relax and sunbathe between our week long trips to Split and Dubrovnik, and it was perfect for this purpose. I would definitely stay here again if I was travelling around Croatia!"
