The location of this apartment was amazing, only a few steps from one of the entrances of Diocletian’s palace. The size of the apartment was good for us 5, was clean, and had a washing machine that is important for us to travel light. The furniture and decoration were modest, but it was comfortable to stay there.
Très bel Appartement situé idéalement aux portes de la vieille ville et à moins de 10 minutes de la gare routière.
Le séjour était très agréable et notre hôte disponible et bienveillante.
Perfect central location for Old Town. Convenient shops and restaurants nearby. We knew from the booking and reviews to expect stairs, so were not at all surprised or disappointed, but this is not a place to stay for someone who struggles with stairs. However, because we were high up, we had GREAT views of the city from our stairs. Nightly concerts played music but not too late and closing windows effectively blocked sounds. A/C kept us comfortable all night. Overall great stay.
This apartment is in a great location just a couple of minutes' walk from the main sites of Split which means you can get there early before the crowds. It also has a great little coffee stand downstairs and a bakery/supermarket close by for breakfast items. The apartment was very clean and well equipped and the hosts were attentive. As others have commented, there are lots of stairs up to the apartment, so this is not for anyone unprepared for that. The bedrooms are well proportioned, though the communal space is very small if you intend to spend much time indoors (we didn't except for one rainy afternoon) and there is no outside space, e.g. a balcony. The air conditioning was highly appreciated as it was very hot. The only downside for us was that it could be noisy sometimes which is probably to be expected so close to town. There was a large crowd in the apartment downstairs that partied into the night (Split is definitely a party town in August). And there was a nightly concert in the park next door which should have finished at 11pm each night but didn't always, and there was other music going until the early hours. As cars are not permitted in Split itself, there are drop-off points around the city for deliveries for restaurants etc, and one of these points is below the apartment. So, great apartment in superb location with friendly hosts, but take earplugs if going in high season and a light sleeper.
Very nice hosts that arranged a taxi from the airport and also met up outside the apartment. We really enjoyed our stay and we can recommend this apartment. It’s small but charming. The location was five star.
Excellent location. Cheap and cheerful. Functional. Clean. Squeaky uncomfortable beds and lots of stairs. Overall good value for money and a nice welcome
Love, love, love Sanja and Rooms in the Palace!!!!
Our stay with In The Palace was so memorable. We couldn’t believe we would be staying in one of the palace towers!! The owner, Sanja, is very kind and accommodating. She is the sweetest person you’ll ever meet!! She made us feel like family and we felt welcomed the moment we meet her. She was waiting for us at the apartment when we arrived and checked in with us later to make sure we had all we needed. We rented the entire apartment so it was incredibly spacious for the three of us. It’s so cute, clean and in a fantastic location with beautiful views of Split. The beds and linens are very comfortable, and the showers has ample room and water pressure. The apartment is just steps way from the Fish market, Green Market, grocery stores, along with restaurants, sights, shops and the ocean. We are looking forward to another stay with Sanja!!
Posizione dell'appartamento magnifica, sulle mura di cinta del palazzo di Diocleziano. Appartamento pulito, camere confortevoli e staff gentile ed attento alle esigenze dei viaggiatori. Torneró!
chambre très bien située quand on est piéton puisque dans la zone piétonnière sur le palais dioclétien, nous avions choisi cette chambre car il y avait soit disant un parking payant hors il n'y a pas de parking ! il s'agit d'un petit parking de ville où il est très difficile de trouver une place puisque la ville est bondée de monde en été !!! si nous avions su cela avant nous n'aurions jamais choisi cette chambre !! néanmoins une fois garé ( à 1 euro de l'heure tout de même) on peut tout faire à pied; la chambre est propre climatisée, nous avons été très bien reçu avec une bouteille d'eau et de jus de fruits dans le frigo, frigo et congélo appréciable en été même si nos voisins ne fermaient pas leurs bouteilles d'eau et que l'eau coulait depuis le frigo dans toute la cuisine, obligé d'éponger pour les autres ! mais ça ce n'est pas de la faute de l'hôtelier.
Lejlighedens belligenhed er helt ideel, midt i den gamle bydel i split tæt på både færgehavnen og stranden. Lejligheden er også fin, men der kan være lidt kamp om badeværelset med de andre beboere om morgenen.
The owner was very friendly, helpful and flexible in getting us checked in. She provided a very clean home-away-from-home experience. There were 3 rooms with beds for 6 (plus the couch looked like it could hold 1-2). The location is fantastic - on the third floor in the NE corner of Diocletian's Palace. Wonderful!

Comfortable and clean at perfect location
This place was exactly as we expected and as the add says, so we were very satisfied with our stay! We got a very friendly and professional welcome by one of the hosts.The location is definitely the best part, and of course the wonderful view from the toilet window. Our room and the common areas were clean and spacious, as well as the common bathroom. The building is quite old, which probably can explain the not so sound proof walls and doors. It was not a problem for us though since all of the other ones staying there were also very calm and respectful. All in all it was a very comfortable one night stay at In the Palace!
We have nothing to complain about the Apartment In the Palace Split as it exceeded all our expectations and was good value. The owner Sanja was warm, hospitable and helpful. The apartment provided great easy walking access to all the sights of the Old Town (it is just a 1-min walk to the entrance of the East Gate), the markets, the Riva and to the ferry port where we could catch our catamaran ferry easily to Hvar Island. We also managed to take a leisurely 30-40 min walk from the apartment to Marjan Hills. We should mention that the apartment is at the top floor (in what was formerly the tower of the East Wall of Diocletian's Palace), so keep your luggage light as you have to lug them up a few flights of stairs!
Quartier sympa, très bon accueil de la propriétaire.
En revanche les autres occupants se sont montrés bruyant et il ya peu d'isolation phonique. Axe d'amélioration : graisser les portes qui grincent :) douche avec plafond bas, peu confortable pour grande taille. Également situé au dernier étage avec bxp de marchés.
The location is amazing, the owner is amazing. Really takes care to ensure a smooth arrival, check-in and experience. Very clean apartment and shared washroom. We had a great view from our room. Everything in Split is walk able from here. Free shuttle bus to Mall of Split right down at the end of street market. Port, bus station and rail station all within a few minutes walk. The bonus... You get to stay alongside 1700years of Roman history!
Vi är jättenöjda, rent och snyggt. Ägarinnan bjöd på förfriskningar när vi kom och var mycket vänlig. Det fanns kaffe och te som de bjöd på. Vi kom sent på kvällen och lämnade direkt morgonen efter, men läget på lägenheten är fantastiskt!
The owner is really lovely. She welcomed us the day before we came out to Split, and was waiting in the apartment for us when we arrived with a lovely warm welcome. The apartment is spacious and just perfect for staying a few nights in Split (maybe even more). The Bathroom was clean and towels were laid out for us ready to go.
The rooms were very clean and the location is amazing- right in the main square of split walking distance to everything.
I would definitely recommend staying. Had a great time!
