Aparthotel Pharia

Admittedly, we travelled off season so we didn't experience "the noise" other people complain about. Also, we had our own car since we drove from Hungary and there were signs pointing us to it as soon as we got to Hvar town. Anyway, we had apartment 302 and it was great. Excellent views of the water and islands with a parade of yachts every morning. Sunset over the water. Small TV in the living room but it had an HDMI port so we watched a little netflix over my laptop. The bed was very comfortable. It had a top on it that was great. Linens were nice as well. Bath towels could be larger, but we're used that... it's a European norm. The staff was friendly and helpful and the young lady that cooked breakfast for us 3 out of the 4 mornings was super sweet and did a great job. I could complain about the small shower stall if I had to, but I didn't go to Hvar to spend my vacation in the shower. And yeah, you have to walk on a beautifully manicured promenade along the Adriatic for about 12 minutes to get to old town... boy did that suck... lol. There's a shortcut for people that don't like to walk by the ocean. For the reasons we went it was perfect.

Economy double room, very small in every respect, noisy, a long way out of town and difficult (impossible) to find as there is no external signage. In addition, hotel location on map supplied by Tourist Information was incorrect. After 1 noisy night in the 1st of 2 nights, we were upgraded to a suite, better accommodation size , quiet and at no extra cost. Staff were very helpful after the first disappointment. damage was done. STILL WOULD NOT RECOMMEND BECAUSE OF DISTANCE (850m) from old town, restaurants etc.

Area was a little remote and the sea view was minimal. Staff was excellent

We booked 3no. 2 bedroom apartments which were very spacious and beds were comfortable. Housekeeping was spot on and the place was a nice chill. Choose this place if you want to be away from the noise around the city but be aware there may be large groups booking rooms here too. It's around a 20 minute walk to the main centre of Hvar (When walking along the sea) but that can be shortened, when you scope around you will find shortcuts. It's around 4 minutes away from Hula Hula beach club. I had issues with the AC at night but that was sorted out the next morning. Staff were helpful enough and catered to our needs. One note, the showers were powerful but the seals on the bath shower screen were worn out and there was a puddle of water each time i had a shower. I feel the hotel may need to update a few things to progress but overall a pleasant stay.

Our room had a great view from the balcony, but the space was tiny. Ideal for one person, but two people had to plan ahead to move about the room. To sit on the toilet required one to rotate 45 degrees so that one's knees did not hit the cabinet under the sink.

The property is impeccably clean and comfortable. It’s well updated on the interior finishes. Breakfast was diverse with yogurt, baked goods, fruit, cereal, juices and eggs if you asked. Getting to the property from the port/town is easy on the pedestrain walkway... keep this in mind on your arrival. I took a loooooong walk up many hills on the advice of google maps. The walk is about 15-20 mins and is beautiful. The beach is close by which is nice. Don’t spend extra on a “sea-view” room as you’re likely to have an obstructed view...I had a huge palm tree at my door...along with a very bright exterior light. And, who wants to sit in the hotel anyway. The property says there’s a “bar” but it’s more like ask the staff for a drink. They didn’t have wine when I asked, but I suspect it could be purchased close by. All in all a great stay in Hvar... I wish I’d arrived sooner and stayed longer.

The rooms were very nice with great soft beds and pillows. The free breakfast was an added bonus. The walk to the city center was a little long, but had a great swimming cove and close to Hula Hula Beach Bar. The staff was great.

I give 4 stars to the hotel itself but 5+ stars to the staff, especially Marianne (I am probably not spelling that right). Our room was small but very comfortable. You can hear Hula Hula at night, so bring earplugs. Fortunately, we didn't feel any vibrations and were not kept awake. Breakfast is nice and there's a kind-of resident cat that we think the hotel should officially adopt as a mascot. I also think the curtain over the A/C should be shorter so the air flows through the room more easily. Great hotel overall.

It is a great hotel. The staff is extremely helpful and the rooms are clean. However, it is about a mile walk to city center. The Hula Hula bar is close and there are beaches and restaurants that are near. If you are trying to find the hotel when you arrive Hvar it is best to take the path along the sea, especially if you have luggage. Once you see the Hula Hula bar keep walking until you see a staircase on the right. So much faster and easier than google maps!

Very nice room with balcony attentive staff and a short walk to beach
