Front desk crew Dom, Filip, Adriana, Mariana n Dejan were simply great n very helpful n approachable. Good employees are an asset n certainly this team I personally came across certainly need special mention. BTW please have a proper footpath for guests to exit from the car park. I was squeezing past the exit gantry after my husband when a car did not wait n went through it n the gantry pole lifted up n hitting me on my chin. Driver stopped but decided to drive off. Needless to say I was in pain. So please do have a proper pathway for guests to walk on instead of squeezing our way in between the gantry barriers It’s a safety issue here. Thanks .

Just ok

The most important thing to me about a hotel is the bed. My bed was extremely uncomfortable - springs poking at me. The thermostat is not controllable from the room. It’s controlled by reception. It was very warm, and by the time it was resolved, it was check out time. There’s more that was wrong, but I’ll stop here. On the plus side, the staff was friendly and the pool was nice.

Lovely but could be better

The staff are all very kind and friendly. The food portions are huge! The drinks all come in glass bottles which is great for the environment.
However the cons the air-con wouldn’t go below 21 degrees it was 36 degrees one day and the room just wasn’t cool enough. They didn’t have any fans either.
The pool, wow the fight for the sunbeds! People are out there putting towels on the beds 6am them wouldn’t sit on them until midday or would go to the beach!!
The hotel is in a great location 15 minute walk from bus station one way and 20 minutes into old town.
All in we enjoyed our stay but probably wouldn’t book again as we booked for easy access to the pool in the heat. Something needs to be done about the sun bed hogging!

Probably our favorite stay during our time in Croatia! A stone's throw away from the beach, and perfect walking distance not only too some great restaurants, but also old town/city center is only 10 minutes maximum! Amazing swimming and beach area in the backyard, along with a couple beach-side bars. We loved it so much, we wound up getting engaged at the imperial fountain just down the beach! Can't recommend this place enough, amazing rooms with spacious bathrooms, great poolbar area and incredible food. Love you Kolovare, see you again soon! <3

The Hotel Kolovare is not a 4 star hotel, its 2 1/2 stars at best. The room cost was way overpriced to way we received. While the hotel is quiet and the staff are great, it does not outweigh that the room we had was quite small, the lighting was poor and the beds were old and need of replacing.

This is definitely not a 4 star hotel. It has good bones and nice balconies, but it is a property that has not been kept up. It is not what travelers have come to expect from Croatia. It is in need of a deep cleaning and spruce up. The furniture in the lobby was dirty. They need to replace all the artificial plants with real plants. The carpet in the room was filthy and the edges of the carpeting is coming undone. There were marks and dirt all over the walls in the room and hair on the bed. The restaurant feels more like a cafeteria. One good thing is the pool area. Very nice.

Great location - only 10mins walk to the old town. The hotel style was obviously built in 70’s/80’s but looks to have been recently refurbished. Plenty of loungers around the pool and access to the beach. Pool Towels provided which is great if travelling light as well as toiletries in bathroom. Room size is fine though the sliding door between en-suite is a bit heavy. In the bathroom the shower is over the bath which is quite a deep step into and could be difficult for anyone with mobility issues but I stayed in a 5* hotel recently in the old town which was just the same. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Dining room is functional and clean. Good choice at buffet breakfast - continental, hot, breads, pastries, fruit.

The lobby is not as big as in the photo. The rooms are rather small but clean.. Bathrooms are average. They charged 5E per day for parking, but it could be free if you used right reservation method. Check. Try to go directly thru hotel.
Strengths are the great buffet breakfast in a huge room included in price and good quality lunch and dinner also. We ate a few dinners in the hotel for under 15 euros and they were good. Not as great as wonderful restaurants in Zadar, but good. Hotel has a big pool with drink service. Beach is right in back of hotel and nice walk in 15 min to walled center of the city. They called cabs for us quicklly. Front desk was very responsive. The hotel is very quiet for sleeping. Price is reasonable. I would return for sure.

Fab all round

Check in was fast with no queue. We just had the expected tourist tax outstanding on our bill which I knew needed to be paid on departure: the staff kindly explained this in person.
The room was comfortable (my partner would like a mattress fit for a princess, I found it very comfortable). The little toiletries included moisturiser which was ideal as we’d not managed to pack any!
The air con was very good and necessary.
The hotel is regularly used for conferences, there were back to back conferences during our stay. These did not detract from our stay at all. There was always a pair of sun beds available by the pool whenever we looked (with plenty of parasols to go around). Breakfast had a great selection: your classic English brekkie, a continental selection with meats and cheese and pastries and cereals, and a selection of more Mediterranean feel items such as polenta cake, aubergine slices and cheese filo parcels. The winner was scotch pancakes next to a jar of Nutella! Plenty of coffee machines so barely ever a queue (even if we misjudged our breakfast times and came across the entire delegation getting breakfast at the same moment).
The back gate from the pool straight out to the road above the beach was ideal. Super easy to nip down for a sea swim and then come back to relax on a sun lounger. The bar staff were lovely and I’m still laughing that local wine is cheaper than a bottle of water. A good walk to the town, but a certain ride sharing app is excellent.

I was quite surprised at the exterior of the property - the signage looks quite dated and the balconies are covered and unattractive, however inside is lovely, as is the pool area. Housekeeping was excellent (although noisy chatting in the hallways early in morning) and everything I requested was dealt with immediately - including a slip mat which I required after a fall getting out of the over-bath shower. If this is not in your room I suggest you ask for one. Location was quiet with a few beach bars in front. The beds are EXCEPTIONALLY comfortable. I would stay here again.

No Guest Control Over AC in the Room

We stayed in early July. It was hot. We tried to adjust the AC in our room. It was unresponsive. We told the front desk, who informed us that the AC was controlled by them. They said they would lower the AC, but it was never cool. We asked repeatedly and had no way to do this except to go down to the lobby, as there is no direct line to phone the front desk. We slept without any covers and woke up in the middle of the night hot, as the AC seemed to come and go.
