Almayer Art & Heritage Hotel

We had a fantastic stay at Almayer Art & Heritage Adults only Hotel. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and beautifully designed—set within a thoughtfully restored historic building. The bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom was modern, with an incredible shower. The location couldn’t be better—right in the center of Zadar’s charming old town, with everything within walking distance. Highly recommended!

Almayer Art & Heritage Hotel is a stylish place to stay in a quiet and cozy spot minutes from the center of Zadar Old Town. Breakfast was great and set in a cute courtyard. What made it special is the exceptional service received — the staff were very friendly, helpful, and always went the extra mile, whether it’s sorting parking, sharing great local tips, or just making sure we felt at home. Made our stay special. We would definitely book again. Thanks!

Whilst this property has been beautifully converted, and the staff are friendly, competent and kind, there's no getting over the fact that the main building was originally the annex of a military hospital, meaning the rooms have a very small footprint. The new owner's solution -- at least in the case of our room -- was to make a sleeping loft with skylights. That means you have to navigate a daunting metal staircase in order to use the (beautifully appointed but tiny) bathroom at night. Downstairs, there was a small sofa jammed into a corner under a window, but nowhere to comfortably lounge together, especially as the room was also dark. At the price point, I was disappointed that the room was basically somewhere to sleep and bathe and not much else. Sadly, there are no common areas with comfortable seating either, although the restaurant, with extensive indoor and outdoor space, is lovely, and you're welcome to sit there at all hours. Furthermore, the room's door handle -- a seriously high-end piece of hardware -- had been fitted too close to the door jamb, so both of us injured our knuckles until we learned the hard way to pull the door closed with a left hand. |The food at the restaurant is excellent, as is the service. |Zadar is short on mid- or high-end accommodation, so this should be an option, but don't choose it if you're planning a romantic chill with a little sightseeing. The hotel has two other buildings that sounds like they might be a better bet -- call to ask.

We stayed at this lovely boutique hotel, ideally located—at least for us—just steps away from the Sea Organ and the Sun Salutation, in one of the most walkable and charming areas of Zadar.||The hotel blends an old architectural structure with modern design and high-quality finishes. There’s a tasteful harmony between vintage and contemporary elements, both in the building itself and in the interior decor.||Breakfast was excellent, not only for the quality of the food but also for the beautiful space where it’s served—at Corte, the hotel’s restaurant, which is open from early morning until 3 PM and also offers a great light lunch option.||The only downside was the housekeeping service. In our experience, the room cleaning lacked attention to detail and didn’t match the standard of the rest of the hotel’s services. That’s the only reason I rated it 4 out of 5 instead of a full 5 stars.||Other than that, everything else was impeccable.

Quaint hotel in a central location. We stayed in the Annex across the street. The room was spacious and comfortable. Short walk to the Adriatic Sea, the Old Town and several beautiful parks. Wonderful a la carte breakfast menu in a lovely setting. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel.

We stayed at Almayer at the beginning of our Croatia trip, and it was perfect! Very good location (just a minute walk to the old town, the sea and passenger harbour ⛵️🛟). Very nice and clean room with a little balcony (annexe building), comfy bed. Also the breakfast was great (in the little garden), no buffet and very nice options to choose from. I loved the granola with fresh fruits. No question, we would book Almayer anytime again! PS: Hotel takes care of car parking (eur 15 per night)

we loved the almayer art & heritage hotel! it was walking distance from everything you would want to see in the old town. everyone was very helpful - connected us to a driver that ended up being a wonderful tour guide through one of the national parks. the rooms are very nice and clean! i would recommend this place to everyone!

Great location right beside the sea organ. Walking street is right outside. Love the staff. All of them are very friendly and helpful. The hotel is very artsy.
