A quieter town in the Main Port of Hvar. Recently updated rooms, very clean, great retreat. So much to do and see without leaving the property. So many games and activities or places to rest by the pool. The Flex pay was amazing. Stari Grad quaint. I definitely will recommend this [PLACES]

Exceeded expectations. pool amazing, sea access great. hiking from property to little coves and 20min walk to town for amazing restaurants. $30 daily credit / person free amazing breakfast and soup and salad lunch was an added bonus. bikes available to hire, reception set up a car rental for us for 24hours so we could explore too. Stari grad is a perfect spot to explore Hvar away from touristy main town.

The staff were amazing, the pool and beach area are beautiful and the air con in the building was crispy! Quick water taxi to Stari Grad from the beach area was 2 euro and worth it. This is a great spot for a relaxing and convenient stay

Good location, a short walk from Stari Grad. Good breakfast options and the room was quite nice. Music round the pool was questionable. Decent value for money overall.

Had an absolute amazing time at this hotel last week, the location right next to the beach was brilliant. The pool is an amazing way to have a relaxing time. Although slightly on the small side, the rooms were very clean and having a balcony was nice. The spa was very enjoyable and also very well priced.

This property was designed with the guest experience in mind. The resort was full of game, nooks, hammocks, bars, and free pool beds that didn’t have to be reserved. We stayed in a Valamar property in Dubrovnik afterwards based on our good experience

Positives: We've really enjoyed with our stay in Places Hotel. Everything was perfect; nature, atmosphere, foods, hotel staff. Strongly recommended. Negatives: - S rooms are really small if the room is important, but it was not an issue for us since we really liked the shared areas of Hotel. - Pillows were uncomfortable :(

The need to visit hotel

Best hotel I have ever been to. The island is so peaceful and picturesque. The hotel is just a chill place to stay with amazing vibes. The fitness coach Sasa was amazing and offered SUP yoga every morning outside regular schedule.

Best hotel in Hvar Island

Great place to stay and will surely come back. Stari Grad is very cosy as a town and great bars and restaurants there. The hotel restaurant and the fact they have a live DJ every day at the pool area makes you want to stay at the Places hotel all the time and don’t have to walk to town. Amazing breakfast as well! Don’t go to Hvar and stay somewhere else. Worth every penny!
