After an extensive renovation and reconstruction, the former and legendary “Hotel Split” with a history of nearly 50 years offers 240 stylish guest rooms including 2 outstanding Presidential suites.The Radisson Blu Resort Split is located only 15 walking minutes away from the historic city centre and along a wonderful pristine beach along the Adriatic Sea – it is a unique combination of a city hotel and a sea resort and headed by General Manager Maik Schaefer, a German national. Whether guests choose the classical, yet modern Economy Rooms or the Standard- and Deluxe Rooms or the suites with their ultra-stylish, light and airy design: The majority of rooms offer breathtaking sea views. Higher room categories also feature extras such as balconies, Nespresso machines, bathrobes & -slippers. The Presidential suites comprise 260 m² each, 3 bedrooms, a private terrace with Jacuzzi and an outdoor sauna.

Two restaurants, a bar and a Lobby Lounge will pamper every palate: “The Fig Leaf” restaurant serves Radisson Blu’s signature “super breakfast” and international buffets with an abundant choice of Mediterranean and Continental specialties as well as live cooking stations and a wonderful terrace towards the sea. “The Caper”, the grill restaurant in a modern and sleek environment, combines equally stunning views, grilled cuts, delicious fish and selected wines from Croatia and all around the world. “The Door” bar adds a modern twist to a list of international and award-winning cocktails, and the Lobby Lounge with a cosy atmosphere is a perfect meeting place at the hotel’s lobby level.

Besides access to a private stunning beach with sunbeds, separate plateau and bar service, the hotel also comprises an indoor- and outdoor pool, a fitness centre and an exclusive Anne Sémonin-Spa with 8 treatment rooms, whirlpool, sauna and steam baths.
