Palace Elisabeth Hvar Heritage Hotel at a glance
Palace Elisabeth stands directly on the Pjaca, the main square of Hvar town, on a site that once held the Duke's Palace of the Venetian era. The palace was rebuilt as a spa hotel named after Empress Elisabeth of Austria, opened to guests in the early 1900s, and today it is the town's only full service 5 star heritage hotel.
Inside are 45 rooms and suites, a spa with a semi indoor pool, sauna and steam room, and terraces overlooking the square and the harbour. Breakfast is served a la carte and is a highlight for many guests, and original stonework is left visible throughout the house.
This is the address for travellers who want history, service and the very centre of Hvar in one building. It is priced accordingly, and reviewers consistently single out the attentive staff and the concierge.
