Nearby, the Sun Salutation captures daylight and creates a mesmerising light show after sunset. Roman ruins stand alongside medieval churches in this ancient walled city, where history feels casually abundant. The Cathedral of St. Anastasia towers over narrow limestone streets that open suddenly into sunny squares. Duck into the Museum of Ancient Glass to see delicate Roman artefacts displayed with surprising wit. After exploring Zadar's old town, join locals at sunset when they gather by the sea. The Times didn't call this the "entertainment centre of the Adriatic" for nothing.

Luxury rooms FOR GIFT

Zadar Old Town

10/10 Exceptional

The room was gorgeous and the view was beautiful. This room is right in the action of Zadar, right next to the Diocletician palace. While the room is gorgeous, it is not exactly functional. For instance, the coffee table seats provided were very low (like children seating). The bed was also very stiff (and I have slept in tents for 30 days straight...). The two people in charge however were very lovely and we appreciated their availability and helpfulness. Overall a great hotel in downtown...
