Stayed 2 nights as part of a group tour. Had a top floor room which was spacious; twin beds, two chairs, a desk, mini bar/fridge and plenty of space to move around and to put our luggage. Big windows looking out towards the mountains let us keep a close eye on when the rain stopped!|Bathroom had a bath with shower over, but bathtub was not full length and was very high to step into. Bit of a worry if we'd slip when getting out (and we're only in our 30s) so would question practicality for some guests.|Others in our group had single rooms and were in the basement with limited light so seems can be quite variable experience.|Hotel is not in Split tourist centre- it's around 15mins walk to the Diocletian palace or waterfront. Fairly straightforward navigation but do take a (free) map from reception.|Breakfast was awkward. There weren't nearly enough tables or space for the number of rooms and not enough staff to clear tables quickly or replenish items as they ran out. Seemed popular with groups so if a whole group comes at same time there's no space for anyone else to sit. |When all items were stocked there was enough choice of food to find something but quite limited for each option. Glad we did not stay longer as would have become...
Read moreWe stayed here for two nights while on tour of Croatia. We had a large, high ceilinged room on the second floor overlooking the front road. It provided two beds, a small sitting area, TV on a desk, a large cupboard with safe, and a large bathroom with a good sized shower. Like our other hotels in Croatia, it was very clean.||The front desk staff were very helpful. They came to open the safe (a common problem as people leave them locked), and provided maps, directions and recommendations for restaurants. The breakfast service was also very good; lots of bread and pastries, fruit and some veg, cold meats and cheeses, eggs and sausages, lots of condiments and good coffee. And there is a market across the street and a bakery two doors away, which are useful. ||Two minor issues were i) the elevator will only handle 2-3 people, especially with luggage, and ii) it is a fair walk to Diocletian's palace, and easy to get confused on the return to the hotel until you know the way. That said, I would very much recommend the Globo for staying...
Read moreHotel Globo is situated about a 15-minute walk from the Old Town, close enough to be by the action, but far enough away so you get a good night’s sleep away from the noise. The drapes provide terrific room darkening.||Hotel Globo provides excellent hospitality. |I started with a small room on my first night and then moved to a suite on my second night (due to a problem in my small room the first night), the transfer of rooms courtesy of the fabulous staff. They really cared that I had a good experience and a good room. They even gave me a box of chocolates for my troubles.||You will enjoy your stay here, and the excellent customer service provided by the staff.||The breakfast included a wide variety of hot foods, cold meats and cheese, yogurts, fruit and pastries. The staff really strive to exceed your expectations. If you don’t care for the machine coffee, they will make a latte in the kitchen and bring it to you! (Tip the hardworking person who dies that for you.)||I loved that the air conditioning...
