I have been to hotel Arkada in mid September 2011 and I expected better quality of the interior, esp. rooms. However, after few days of my stay in Stari Grad I realized that Stari Grad is such a beautiful place and I chose the town and hotel is anyway less important than a place.Restaurant offer solid buffet breakfast. Hotel interior... More

I go to Croatia three times every year and this has got to be the worst hotel i have ever stayed at. I recently spent two weeks at this hotel with my sister from 10 Sept to 14 Sept. The hotel is so old and dated and the food was awful, I lost 7lbs in weight during my stay because... More

This hotel is adequate for a one night stay. The beach and the views from this hotel are beautiful. The hotel is a soviet type place from the eighties. It was clean but old. No water for showers on the fourth floor between four and six. However the people at the reception spoke english and were helpful. Stari grad is... More

Look, the hotel itself was like a scene from the 1950s. However, a two minute walk to the beach and a large swimming pool (must get there early to reserve sunbed) are real positives. For me the major negative was the lack of air conditioning in the hotel room, which is essential in Croatia in August. We stayed for two... More

Wow, what an experience! We walked around this hotel giggling uncontrollably - and not in a good way!! It was like a 50’s holiday camp trapped in a 70’s concrete block. This was the most expensive hotel during our Croatia trip and it was pretty shocking. During our 4 night stay our room wasn’t cleaned nor sheets or towels changed.... More

This place is preserved in all its 70's glory - it needs to be visited for a giggley love boat throwback experience and not taken too seriously! Food bit of a disaster but who eats in the hotel resteraunt when your next to a seaside strip lined with georgous seafood resteraunts anyway!! Lovely helpfull fluent english speaking staff, a peacock... More

I was affraid going to Arkada after reading reviews. It is not such a bad place, and the basic thing is : it is lightly possible that you can have a better holidays in Hvar for that amount of money. People ! It is 3 stars hotel and the price is more than fer. The beach is beautiful, the food... More

This hotel is like a time machine. It takes you right back to the 1970s! Unfortunately, it has not been updated since. Go here if you want to get a feel of what Eastern Europe was like before the Berlin Wall came down! It takes you right back to communist times; in a way it is hilarious! Certainly not recommended...

We visited Hvar for a couple of days during a 2 week stay on Brac and we stayed one night at the Arkada - I think that is enough The hotel reminded us of the 60s/70s concrete block hotels. Rows of rooms along long corridors with a lift block in the middle. We had a sea view which was lovely.... More
