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!!

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.

Perfect in every way

Excellent in all respects. Thomas even had umbrellas when we arrived to guide us to accommodation as we were met with pouring rain. Very very clean with everything we needed and perfect location. Restaurants so close also and the one downstairs perfect. Highly recommend this accommodation.

Perfect stay

Bed so comfy. Decent size room, basic amenities but fine. Wow, Thomas is amazing. He met us at taxi which he also organised for us in request, took us to the room and gave us recommendations without us even having to ask. He was a star. The hotel could not be in a better location, HIGHLY recommend. It is not in a too busy or loud street either which is a huge bonus!

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.

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.

This is right in the heart of town, minutes from everything. That has its plusses and minuses. It is great for convenience, but it tended to be noisy at night. The streets are all very narrow, so I was awakened several times by people walking down the street in the middle of the night yelling to their friends. That is probably true of any place in the center of town, though. Also, part of that was my fault, because I failed to notice there was an A/C unit, so I kept the windows opened. (Turned out it wasn't working anyway, but if I had noticed in time, my host probably would have rectified that.) My other concern was that it was very hard to find. That was aggravated by the fact that there was a large concert taking place in the main plaza very near the location. GPS led me in circles around the town, trying to navigate with heavy luggage and large crowds. I finally contacted the owner, Marina, who was very kind and asked me to take a picture of my location. She came out to find me and guide me the final block or two. She was also very helpful with other questions that I had. The room was well equipped and the bed very comfortable, and I loved the rustic look of the original stone walls. Once I had gotten there, I loved that I could step out of my room, walk a block or two and watch a free concert or get a bite to eat. So, with those caveats about possible noise, I would recommend Guesthouse Imperator and its host, Marina.
