    Briig Hotel in Split is an absolute recommendation for people who enjoy boutique hotels, modern interior design and great service. The location of the hotel is perfect as the old town or the beach can be reached by foot while the car stays safely parked in the hotel garage. It is s great accommodation for a city trip to Split or as a starting point to later travels to the near islands by ferry.

    Beautiful, modern interior design in an old stone house. The small apartment has been made to meet every need for a comfortable stay. Felt like a boutique hotel apartment. Loved the small balcony overlooking the courtyards of the neighbouring houses. The location was perfect for my purpose - close both up ferries and the old city. Hosts were accommodating and friendly.
