This was a quant little boutique hotel in the heart of everything which we loved! The check in was easy and the check out was equally as great. The host had great communication with us and gave us some very good recommendations on where to eat and what to do/see. Our room was a bit small and our view was of a bar/street but we were ok with it as it got quiet around 11 so it didn’t disturb our sleep. The little court yard was cute although we didn’t use it as someone was always using it when we thought about it but that’s ok! All in all I would recommend staying here if you’re looking for a boutique hotel in the heart of everything! Dining, bars, shops all right around the corner from the hotel!

Sanja, the owner, made our stay extra special. Since this hotel is in a pedestrian friendly neighborhood, the taxi cannot give you front door service. Sanja met us in the dark at the Taxi station and actually assisted us with our bags. The hotel is very quaint and in the perfect location if you're looking to stay in old town Split. You can walk to everything. Sanja gave us a map and recommended an amazing restaurant for breakfast called Ciri Biri Bella which was very close to the hotel. I would definitely stay there again.

Nice location at the edge of the old city. Clean, comfortable room, but a bit cramped -- especially for a family of 4 -- due to the low, slanted ceiling. Nice elevated courtyard for sitting and relaxing.

Loved this location

Lanterna Rooms were absolutely lovely. Our room was beautiful—clean, spacious, and perfectly located. It was within easy walking distance to all the highlights of Split: restaurants, shops, the port, and conveniently close to access transportation like Uber to leave the city center. Everyone we interacted with at the property was kind, helpful, and welcoming. If you’re planning to explore the Old Town area, this is a fantastic place to stay. While the Old Town is generally quite busy, the room itself is tucked away in a peaceful, quiet spot that made for a perfect first night in Split before boarding our boat. Highly recommended!

The room was very clean and cozy. Sanja was so sweet, accessible and willing to be flexible with check in/out time since we had some weird flight times! Lanterna Rooms is located in the perfect spot with walking distance to all of the shops and restaurants around Split and not too far from the beautiful beaches!

Lovely little place to stay, rooms are very clean and well kept. Staff are friendly. It is located in an excellent area, can walk to pretty much everything. You can store your luggage there after you’ve checked out which is very helpful. Instructions to get to the property are clear and make it easy to find. The only issue is it can be noisy at night, there are bars and cafes right outside the window and it was very noisy the first night we stayed until very early morning. The other nights were quieter but you can still hear alot out of the window.

Gorgeous serene accommodation!

The Laterna is an amazing place to stay. The service is impeccable, the courtyard a gem to relax and rest away from the city life and the bedroom was serene and incredibly comfortable. The room is a little larger than other places so you can move around more. The staff is kind and generous and helpful on many topics. Highly recommend!

Short stay in Split

In car exclusion area so 6 minutes from off road car park. Receptionist excellent and very helpful. Nice room but overlooking bars and cafe so noisy outside at night and rooms not well soundproofed, so not a great night’s sleep. However, well located for walking to old town and harbour. Would recommend the ferry trip to Hvar (TP ferries).
