My sister and I really enjoyed our stay! The room was super cozy and the bathroom is spacious. We loved being in the middle of the Old City in Split—you are walking distance from all the shops, restaurants, and monuments, and a bus ride away from some beautiful local beaches! Our host, Thomas, was very kind, helpful and quickly responsive throughout our entire time there. We highly recommend this place!!

Central room in old town, clean, good air conditioning, and smooth self check-in / out. Sound does travel from rooms above / below, so ear plugs may be helpful for light sleepers.

Thomas was amazing! He met us at the ferry port and helped pull one of our suitcases the 10 minutes to the room. The hotel is in a perfect location in Old Town with everything within a short walk away. We would definitely stay there again!

When I arrived, I received everything via text with these instructions so if nothing to do, they provided me the code. I walked into the room, drop my bags and went to town. It’s a little hard to locate between all the buildings. If you’re Google maps says you’re within 30 feet and you can’t find it look up. There are some stepsand that’s where you will find the door.

The unit was very clean and perfect size for a couples trip to Croatia. The location was at the heart of Old Town and allowed to have many food and sightseeing options close by. The owner were very responsive, kind, and accommodating to our needs. 12/10 would recommend to anyone interested in visiting Split!

Our experience at Imperator was excellent in all respects. Marina was great at meeting our taxi and taking us to the room, and Thomas was also great in helping with our luggage to the next hotel. Position was unbeatable, central in the Old Town, and convenient to numerous bars and restaurants (& gelato bars). We were warned about restaurant noise from the nearby dining but never found it a problem. Overall we can highly recommend Guesthouse Imperator.

100% recommend this awesome property!

The old part of Split is definitely a walking town. I contacted my host Marina the day before we arrived and her son Thomas met us the property. What a friendly and knowledgable young man! Our room was beautiful clean, with a small fridge, coffee, pot and kettle. The beds are extremely comfortable, bathroom was spotless and you couldn’t be the location! Staying right outside of Diocletian’s palace was perfect! We walked everywhere, and thoroughly enjoyed a walking tour of the city. When you come from Canada, it’s awesome to experience hundreds of year old culture and traditions. And the Croatian food is absolutely delicious, so is the wine! Our host was excellent with information on transportation back to the airport as well.

Perfect for solo travelling.

Very clean and inside the old town. A little difficult to find and navigate the alleys, but google maps will get you there. Probably one of the best stays ive experienced in a while.
