Learn more about Zadar

Along the seafront promenade, the Sea Organ plays haunting melodies created by waves pushing air through underwater pipes. Nearby, the Sun Salutation captures daylight and creates a mesmerising light show after sunset. Roman ruins stand alongside medieval churches in this ancient walled city, where history feels casually abundant. The Cathedral of St. Anastasia towers over narrow limestone streets that open suddenly into sunny squares. Duck into the Museum of Ancient Glass to see delicate Roman artefacts displayed with surprising wit. After exploring Zadar's old town, join locals at sunset when they gather by the sea. The Times didn't call this the "entertainment centre of the Adriatic" for nothing.

"Wish we had stayed longer as we really enjoyed the stay! Great view from our room and was close to everything we needed. Be mindful you will need to carry your luggage from the nearest gate to the hotel as it is in the old town where cars are not permitted. We were surprised to find our room walls outfitted with mirrors, which was low key kind of a vibe. Enjoy."
