  • Engine customer Oct 2025

    Club in the same building, open until 5 AM with loud music that you can hear in the hotel room. AC controls did not work.

  • Engine customer Jul 2025

    Rooms are modern and clean. Large bathroom. Run down building. Entrance next to a loading dock. Inconvenient and uncomfortable.

  • Engine customer Feb 2025

    location. Elevator and the coffee station in the room ??☺️ and very close to central Amsterdam and tram Too much noise since we get the corner room.

    Spacious room, spacious, good working shower. Clean Firstly, when I booked the hotel I asked them if I could leave some luggage with them before my stay (I had 9 days in Split, 5 days on Korcula, before coming back to Prima Luca) to save me taking in needed stuff to Korcula. “Yes, it’s not normally something that we would do, but we ca do this for you”. Brilliant, thank you!! Luckily I went I find the hotel whilst in Split the first time and double checked my request to save any hassle on the day of my ferry. “I don’t know why you were told that, we just leave the cases in the corridors and reception isn’t manned ant night” - not a major problem as I the had time to source storage, but why say yes in the first place? And what if I hadn’t checked? The ‘boutique’ hotel as it calls itself is on the 3rd floor of a shopping centre. As you go up in the tatty glass walled lift you pass the other abandoned floors that look like it was a set in an apocalypse movie. Reception isn’t much better. Stairs are taped off, escalator not in use. It looks like there was once a cafe or bar on the top floor which would give amazing views of the city. Also looks abandoned. As well as boutique I’m sure I saw the words ‘luxury rooms’ somewhere. Small windows at the top of the bedroom wall leaves little natural light and zero fresh air. Although the bed was comfy, there was only one small pillow each and no sign of extras. One of the rooms descriptions was ‘unique decoration includes a 3D rendition of the oldest Slavic alphabet. Not that this was a reason I booked it but it was some letters painted onto a wall with a line Dow the side to look like the 3D graffiti you did o your school books. This at least gave me a chuckle I’m far from a room snob, it wasn’t a horrible experience by any stretch but it wasn’t worth paying £180 for a night. Luckily it was only a one night stop off

    There was a sauna in the room but I didn’t use it. That was a wow moment. Also liked the sky lights. There’s a small bump on the third floor hallway floor. It should be labeled.

    Superb

  • Engine customer Aug 2024

    The location was perfect just in the heart of Split, the staff was very friendly and helpful, Maša was taking care of me and she was very responsive and helped me with all my needs. Even after I left the hotel she was helping me a lot to to deliver me my staff that I forgot in the room.

    Very good

  • Engine customer Aug 2024

    While the location is excellent, the hotel's standards fall short of what one would expect from a four-star establishment. Despite arranging and confirming an early check-in, the process was frustratingly slow. We had to wait a significant amount of time, which was disappointing. The beds were extremely hard, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep. Upon entering our room, we found stains on the bathroom floor, indicating it had not been cleaned properly. We had to request a second cleaning, but even then, the bathroom still required a deep clean. Cleanliness of the room!

  • Engine customer Jul 2024

    Great location. Spacious room. Lack of facilities. It was just a room and bathroom. No restaurant or gym or cafe or anything. I didn’t like the cheap interior trying to look luxury. I didn’t like going through a shopping centre to get access. Especially at night.

  • Engine customer Jun 2024

    The location is very good, close to everything: Diocletian's Palace, restaurants, bars, waterfront promenade (Riva), shopping, buses and taxis. But that is the only positive! The room itself was acceptable but the "Hotel" as a whole was disappointing and depressing. Diamond studs on the headboard and thick carpeting doesn't make it 'Luxury' or 'Boutique' The hotel is located on the third floor in an almost abandoned shopping mall, which gives the whole place a depressing and creepy vibe. The room had a strong chemical smell during the entire stay. Small windows you can’t open and ventilate the room and placed so high that you can only see the sky. Dirty glasses and spoons, changed after i pointed it out. The hallway outside my room was used as storage for old advertising signs. Hot water took a very long time, flushed for 5-10 min and still only lukewarm. The building probably has no hot water circulation system, risk of Legionnaires' disease! (dangerous pneumonia) I have traveled a lot and stayed in many hotels, 113 via Boking.com over the years, but after this I no longer trust the Booking ratings and star system any more. 107 of 281 ratings 9 – 10 can’t be true! 78 of 281 ratings 7 – 9! Are the reviews for the same place as I stayed in? This is not a 4-star hotel with a rating 7.0

    Passable

  • Engine customer Jun 2024

    The bed is comfortable and the shower is truly great. The hotel is located in an abandoned shopping mall, which gives the whole thing kind of a creepy vibe. In addition, the massage chair that was advertised on the homepage did not work.

    Disappointing

  • Engine customer May 2024

    Superb

  • Engine customer May 2024

    Location is perfect - so central Hotel is above a shopping centre so when the shops are closed you have to use a service entrance around the back in an alley

  • Engine customer May 2024

    Bad room , the price is high compared to the room

  • Engine customer Jan 2024

    The cleanest room since I've been traveling and I've been traveling for the last 20 years. The location is excellent. The city is beautiful

  • Engine customer Dec 2023

    Everything was perfect and close to the centre! The reception staff was extremely kind and even let us stay at the day of our checkout longer without any charges.Would definitely come back here :)
