Hotel Kolovare

If you are visiting Zadar, this is the place to stay! Perfect for couples, families, larger groups! The location is perfect! The beach is right across the street, a great restaurant is right around the corner, the bus station is right down the street, as well as the local hospital, the Harbour from where daily boat trips leave from is a 10 minute walk! Old Town is a 15 minute walk! Not to mention that this is one of the very few hotels in the area with 2 swimming pools- one smaller one for kids. Perfect for relaxing if you want to stay away from the crowds at the beach! The breakfast was delicious- lots to choose from :) can’t complain! The availability to order food by the pool was a plus! The staff was friendly and the most helpful :) Our room was spacious, with a fairly large balcony, the beds were comfortable! We will definitely book again during our next stay in Zadar! :)

The hotel is well located - maybe a bit far, but still walkable to the city center. Free and fairly secure parking space. Rooms large enough, with functioning AC and WiFi - not very fast but OK. There is a fridge and safe in the room, minibar is paid, also for water. Bathroom - all good, clean, plenty of amenities which were daily replenished - not something happening in all hotels. Breakfast is good, lots of choices, weakest is selection of juices (coloured water I think) and coffee is a bit lacking. There is also generally relaxed feeling throughout the hotel, also in the pool area, which is great.

The hotel was clean, rooms were cleaned daily, mini bar and fridge were available in rooms, nice sized circular salt pool with adequate amount of loungers for size of hotel, breakfast buffet had a good variety and was nice, staff were pleasant and polite, sited on the beach front with just a road separating you from the sea and beach, lovely setting and view and within walking distance to the bus station, restaurants, bars and all amenities

This hotel exceeded our expectations based on reviews we had read which made us skeptical. Yes there are some aspects of the hotel that could do with modernising but they are really insignificant when you're actually there. The room was spacious enough, we had a lovely view to the sea. The staff by the pool and in the canteen were very helpful. The pool area looks much better in person and is very cosy and lovely to relax in during the sun. Lots of sun loungers too to use free of charge. They do really nice cocktails for a great price. The hotel is in an excellent location with the huge Kolovare beach less than a minute away which is excellent because we could alternate between being in the sea and then relaxing on the loungers in the hotel fairly easily. The old town is a lovely 15 minute walk and the walk itself is very nice in the sunset. We did the walk every day! The central bus station is less than a 5 minute walk also, so we had no problem getting to/from the airport, taking buses to nearby towns and visiting Plitvice! Definitely exceeded our expectations and is a perfect place to relax for the price.

location is excellent (beach just behind the hotel, city center within a 15 minute walk), free private parking, fabulous breakfast (exceptional variety and all fresh), clean and comfortable rooms, balcony with sea view, swimming pool
