From rental apartments, hotels, and hostels, there are plenty of accommodation options in Croatia. Booking.com is the most popular website to use to book accommodation in Croatia.

Rental apartments are safe, secure, and usually owned by locals. They also offer great value for money, in comparison to the infrequent “budget” hotels.

When searching for hotels, I would recommend looking at 4 and 5 star hotels. 4 star hotels tend to have the best value, while 5 star offer incredible luxury in Croatia.

Here are some of my favorite hotels across Croatia:

• Zagreb: Westin Zagreb OR Esplanade Zagreb
• Pula: Histria Park Plaza
• Rovinj: Island Hotel Katarina
• Zadar: Almayer Art & Heritage Hotel
• Split: Hotel Cvita
• Dubrovnik: Hotel Excelsior OR Hotel Kompas

For a small country, Croatia is packed with a diversity of activities. From culture and history, to waterfalls and pristine beaches and islands, there’s something in Croatia for everyone.
