Hotel ZaDar

Slightly bland but very clean hotel on a main road out in the suburbs but easy to reach the old town by uber. What gives it four stars rather than lower is the pleasant and welcome pool (especially after a hot day of sightseeing) and the very helpful staff. It's also quiet - at least our room was, which faced the pool and had a small balcony. Negatives are few - the lack of a lift is an obvious one, but the staff will help lug your bags to your room, and another was the horrible air freshener they use in the rooms which, to us at least, was too full-on and required a couple of hours of ventilation with open windows to get rid of. Breakfasts are so-so at best, with machine coffee and a dull assortment of offerings. There is a very convenient free car park right beside the hotel. Quick tip - do not use local standard taxis which charge rip-off fees, but use uber instead which is far more reasonable.

We had not planned to stay here but after my Husband has a accident at the beginning of our Croatian Cruise, we were stuck in Zadar waiting on our insurance company to call, so after some time we decided it was best to find a hotel for the night and Hotel ZaDar was the closest to the bus station, where we were hanging around! We could not have chosen a better hotel. Our room was ready as soon as we walked in at around 12:30pm and the room was very big including a little kitchen area. You can also close the bedroom door so that you can close off any noise from people coming & going along the corridor. We asked if we could extend our check out from 10am until 12 the next day as were still not sure of our plans and this was no problem. The next day we found out that we needed to stay another night and again this was no problem. We also ate at the restaurant in the evening and had lovely fish the first night and although my order was messed up in the second night, it was still good and I was not too bothered. Breakfast was a very small selection but fine for what we wanted. All the staff that we encountered were lovely. My only criticism is the smell of smoke. It comes through in the air con plus the reception area stinks as there is a cafe bar where obviously people are smoking and as its Croatia, smoking is very hard to avoid. However, this would not stop me staying at this hotel again. Thanks for making a stressful few days comfortable for us.

Maybe 1 star hotel. Thanks to the reception manager we survived cause change us the room little bit better. At the beginning we received a disgusting room (dirty, very old towels, broken lamps, small bed). Wellness closed, swimming pool dirty and with a lot of dead bees in the water. Mold smelling in all the room, kettle without cups, tea, sugar, etc. Selected wine was advertised but refrigerator was completely empty. Please reconsider the 4 stars published or start to renewal the hotel Apparently seems a closed hotel.

This accommodation does not warrant a 4 star hotel !!!! As present it’s a 2-3 and it’s well over priced Pool side beds are shocking - no parrasels for shade Pool is small and ok but doesn’t look fully clean . I don’t agree with smoking being allowed in the bar area inside in such a small space it’s disgusting and smelly and very unpleasant when you don’t smoke . A couple of staff members look hostile they really need to smile more . One smoking like a factory chimney and looks untidy Faulty towers comes to mind Breakfast - no wonder nobody bothers showing up it’s RANK !!! Stone cold Embryo eggs at 7.15 am. ? Scrabble eggs look like they are re used days on end . I only end up having coffee melon and those chocolate craisants Beds - no sheets on just one covering mattress !! People screeming and jumping in the pool at 5.30 am ??? And kids in still at 9pm No standards set !!! Charging you taxes on your last day for your stay when you already paid in full for your holiday !!! You should be refunding half my holiday 900 pounds plus for 1 week . Postive - some staff did smile And bus station is on the doorstep to escape If all this feed back is taken on board then people will have a better view .
