Hotel Hvar, hotel in Jelsa

Hotel Hvar is located on the island of Hvar in the small picturesque town of Jelsa on a wooded hill, sloping to the shoreline, with panoramic sea views from the rooms, restaurant and lounge bar.

Wonderful Jugoslavia-style hotel: spacious with gorgeous views, beach and nature surroundings (minutes walk to a lovely Jelsa), loved it! The atmosphere is laid-back, staff friendly and accommodating, you feel free and unconstrained, and facilities are amazing (tennis, bar, swimming pool, promenade), with a special bonus (if you have kids, it's a blast), a mini-club where you can leave you kids 4h over day under the watch of a super nice lady and enjoy your time off:)) As said, this is a vintage Jugoslavija-style hotel, kind of resort you find rarely anywhere on the coast, rooms are very simple but compensated with remarkably generous and well-kept hotel facilities and surroundings. And for the price, it's far more you could ever get in some other very modern but confined space.

Close to the town, easy parking, can walk to town in 10 min, close by you have 2 main supermarkets, and 3 smaller ones in town, very convenient location. Host was really nice and friendly. Gave tips to where to go to the beaches. Room was perfect, clean, spacious with a balcony (no view), but space for 4 people to have lunch or dinner, and rack for towels or clothes. Fridge and kitchenette. Will certainly come back as the price beats the other locations, clean and close to town.

    A very attractive and lively harbour offering a wide range of activities: pebble and sand beaches nearby, restaurants, ice cream parlours, bars, concerts, cloth shops...). The square in the town is particularly attractive and welcoming, and a lovely place to have your first cup of coffee in the morning and buy a croissant from one of the nearby bakeries and look out and see the day start to begin in the early morning coolness.

    The local people, you encounter are always give excellent service . I have visited Jelsa a number of times. Love the outdoor cinema. It was very busy at this time of year. Lazy days by the sea and fine dinning and excellent ice cream.

    Beautiful village at the cost, with lot of lovely restaurant and vivid boardwalk near the harbour. Old city is full of narrow, stone streets with lot of nice place to visit. It is not so crowded like Hvar.

    It is beautiful to stay the whole year, except July and August, because is so much crowd. I recommend to all my friends to go in June or September. Jelsa have everything you need, and is good starting point to explore the Island of Hvar.

    I simply adored quiet mornings there when mostly local people and few tourists are drinking coffee. There's nothing spectacular there but it is great place with just enough restaurants, stores, cafes to have pleasant vacation. I'm impressed with nice park and narrow streets perfect for morning walk.

    Very pretty and clean with a good range of restaurants and easy access to the catamaran to Brac and Split. There are plenty of places to bath from the rocks and even in the town which we preferred to the main beach. Found an incredible restaurant in the winding back streets called Nono's. It was so pretty and the food was incredible, great if you like steak or seafood. We had the best steak we've had in a very long time.

Turn Hvar into a SportHotel, bec there is no such one in Hvar island. You really have a lovely facilitations already! There are 4 tenniscourts, nyt only 2 in use. There would ne fantastic place for soccer, beachvolley, healthy food, social sports, group fitness, yoga, silent meditation walks etc.

    House is in Vrisnik, quiet picturesque village on a hill, a few kilometers far from Jelsa. After about 10 minute drive you have old town of Jelsa, beaches and big well equipped supermarkets. Owners, the Bogdan family are worm and kind, great hosts, who live in own house in the same garden. They met us with welcome drinks and fruits – really great people! The house is perfectly clean, well equipped and spacious, we felt like at home so we highly recommend it!

    Great host, very clean room, own bathroom. Kitchen was common, but had every appliance tou could dream of and was huge. Other guests were silent. Air conditioning was extraordinary. We got a lot of towels and our own fridge in the kitchen. It took us 3 minutes to get to the very central square of Jelsa, same time to a small shop, 6-7 minutes to a big shop. We had TV and anti-bug nets in the windows. Overall, amazing for the price. Pay this place a visit!

    Very clean and confortable. Our apartament ( in Gemini building) was cleaned every day, we've got clean towels daily, was equiped with all the necessary things ( washing machine, hair dryer, coffee machine, etc.). We had a beautyful and large terrace. The sea is wonderful there, the beach is very long and you can find really good and quite places to sit in the shade/sun. Near is a very nice little town, Jelsa, were you can eat and have a nice evening.

    Amazing hosts! Their hospitality and kindness are beyond any scale! Marko was very helpful with everything- sightseeing, necessary supplies, traveling tips. Perfect! The place is brand new, any facilities are available (including dishwasher and washing machine). Comfortable beds, modern bathroom. Conditions are truly amazing. Location is also good. Just few minutes walk to nearest sand beach but also to Jelsa’s center. We truly recommend Minalux :)

    The apartment is really nice, very close to the Jelsa center (10-15 mins by foot), and by car is only few minutes. It has everything you need, toilet, small kitchen, balcony. Everything was super clean and comfortable. The communication was great, the host was on the site and was really helpful with everything we needed. We stayed only one night but we will for sure come again and stay longer to enjoy Jelsa.

    This property was in a calm area, with sea views which was perfect for us, as we’ve traveled with our son. It was close to the Mina beach which has beautiful restaurant, while the centre was about 10-15min slow walk. The hosts were very friendly, helpful and they did their best to comfort us. The room was very well furnished with new appliances. We are definitely coming back! Regards from Mila, Aron & Leon!

    Excellent apartment in Jelsa hosted by Agim and his family. We loved how the apartment was furnished and stocked with everything you need. Host pays careful attention to the details and is willing to help make your stay something you will remember. Great views of the harbor and the hills from the 3rd floor apartment we rented.

    The location of the apartment is quite near to the city center just 5 minutes on foot. The lady's that run the place tried to help but they didn't made the expectations due to the language barrier. They just understand German besides Croatian so it was difficult.
