Negatives: - S rooms are really small if the room is important, but it was not an issue for us since we really liked the shared areas of Hotel. - Pillows were uncomfortable :(

Really fantastic stay, great location! The flexi half board was brilliant and plenty of choice. I would have given 5 stars however they have a no pool bed reservation policy, however by 08:30 all of the beds have been reserved and also not in use for many hours with no effort to uphold this policy at all so unless your down before 8am there’s no chance of a bed by the pool.

Had an absolute amazing time at this hotel last week, the location right next to the beach was brilliant. The pool is an amazing way to have a relaxing time. Although slightly on the small side, the rooms were very clean and having a balcony was nice. The spa was very enjoyable and also very well priced.

Best hotel I have ever been to. The island is so peaceful and picturesque. The hotel is just a chill place to stay with amazing vibes. The fitness coach Sasa was amazing and offered SUP yoga every morning outside regular schedule.

Our stay at the Place Hotel was very nice. Great room (actually small, but it hardly bothered us) and a great pool area. We find the flexible half-board option really great, but unfortunately, there was very little choice for vegetarians. We would particularly like to highlight the massage by Dragana. We haven't been massaged so well and, above all, in such a relaxed and courteous atmosphere for a long time. Thank you very much for that!

We had a wonderful experience at Places. It is a beautiful property with a great vibe. What made it even more enjoyable was the staff. Martha was wonderful and gave great tips on places to visit. Miheala was a great concierge and planned a wonderful wine tasting excursion for us. We had an issue with my bank card and Marissa went above and beyond to fix it. I cannot say enough about the team of people working in the hotel!

Far and expensive to Hvar, 2€ charge for beach towel change (so if it was dirty and you stayed 5 days, you had to keep or pay), no phone in room so you have to go downstairs every time you need help or are missing towel or things in room), not much variety of food

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The most disappointing and worst resort experience of my life. This place is a total joke of a hotel. Very few staff that only service you via a QR code ordering system. Broken A/C in the unit where we were given generic responses but it never got fixed during our stay. Snarky responses from staff. Sunbeds (the only seating) that are part of the hotel near the water are additional charges. Exteremely far away from downtown Hvar with cabs that charge you 80 euro to get back and forth from the hotel.

Wonderful vacation

A wonderful summer vacation in a relaxed atmosphere. The hotel is located in a beautiful pine park in the bay near Stari Grad, Hvar. Everything is very unique about the guesthouse, but the friendly worker at reception explained everything to us upon arrival. We all received a bracelet to pay for food and drinks and to open the room. The balance can always be checked on the app on the phone. The place is really wonderful with two swimming pools and close to the sea. The staff is very friendly from Stefan, who always find time to talk to each guest individually. Charge of the kitchen surprises me with his knowledge of gluten-free food, for which I regularly receive advice. All of the staff are cheerful and smiling but with wonderful smile during meals refreshes the whole day. The music by the pool is fantastic, with different DJs, and we must praise the girl with the violin who perfectly fits into the sound of mixed good old and new hits. Guests have free sunbeds in the park and next to the swimming pool, which completes the wonderful and high-quality offer. If you want the atmosphere of a small town on the coast, you can walk along the sea to the center of Stari Grad with its restaurants and cafes.

Not sure we would return.

Not sure if we would return. Positives are breakfast was good and varied, location is good if you want somewhere beautiful and quieter but then the hotel counteracts that with playing awful loud music. Paid extra for sea view to only see trees. Rooms are tiny and bathrooms have not been updated in the refurb, just tiles painted. The food was pretty awful for lunch/dinner and they had run out of most things on our last night due to a delivery/order mix up. Service was also hit and miss. Our shower didn’t drain and they did sort it promptly, however on the day we arrived they were very unhelpful with providing support with getting from Stari Grad ferry port - the shuttle bus was booked in for service so tough luck we were on our own. They should have provided discounted taxis for guests if the shuttle (advertised on their website) was out of service.

Scenic, stylish and great value for money

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and can’t recommend it highly enough. We travelled as two couples in our thirties and found many other guests were a similar age profile to us. The hotel itself was is very stylish - perfect for those Instagram shots! It’s set in a great location, about a 15-20 minute walk into quaint Stari Grad and right on edge of the sea, so you can easily jump in and cool off. Stari Grad is a lovely town and we explored there a couple of evenings and had some lovely meals. I’ve stayed in Hvar town before and this is definitely more chilled and suitable for families. The food at the hotel was great. Loads of choice at breakfast and we were very impressed you could help yourself to sparkling wine! The flexi-board option worked well and we found there was plenty of choice. Each afternoon there was a DJ by the pool which is in keeping with the vibe of the hotel but in the afternoons we found the bass a bit heavy. It would be great to have a bit more of a chilled vibe for the afternoons by the pool. The staff were all great. We found check in/out a little time consuming, especially when checking out with additional charges for food and drink to the room. Overall this is a great hotel and with the flexi credit, we felt it was really good value for money.
