Our room was elegant, large, and charming. Right on the water, you can walk Stari Gard easily. The staff is excellent and the breakfast is lovely. (I recommend the Sunshine eggs.) I meant to get a hotel in Hvar town and when I realized my mistake, I wasn't allowed to cancel the reservation. But that turned out to be a blessing in disguise because Stari Gard is even more relaxing than Hvar and an easy bus ride from Hvar. And, it's probably just me, but the only signage outside the hotel says Mausoleum, but it's the big, pink building.

Best accommodations in Stari Grad!
We booked the deluxe double room with seaview and balcony and it exceeded expectations! We were right in the harbor and a short walk from the old town. The room was quiet and extremely clean and comfortable. All the staff were very helpful and welcoming. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Stari Grad!

Great Stari Grad mariner location
Lovey old historic building, perfect location, great breakfast, stayed in room 5 which is the only room with sea view balcony, was a nice room. No fridge or coffee machine though. Staff friendly and helpful however they would smoke out the front of the hotel which I could smell at times in my room and when walking in and out of hotel. For a non smoker, not good! Staff don’t seem to have a uniform, pretty laid back in that regard. Hotel has a lift which was good. Cleaner for the room didn’t remove old coffee cup during our 4 nights, left sat in room table. The shower was really good and powerful. Bed and pillows soft. Would say it is a 3.5 star hotel, not 4. A couple little things stop it from being a 4 star to me having stayed at many 4 and 5 stars hotels however I would stay again for sure!

Great hotel!
Excellent hotel in Stari Grad, It is located right at the front of the marina which is beautiful and also busy. The hotel is well maintained and the staff are excellent, The only slight criticism I have is on the food front. The quality and selection of foods should be improved otherwise the hotel is excellent.

Beautiful hotel set in a picturesque village
Beautiful hotel, restored and furnished with great pride. Staff very helpful. I would stay again but with a few changes As we went with friends, I saw a few rooms, and they were all stunning with harbour views. Our room was at the top and although enormous the lift well formed part of it. The glass lift lights made the bedroom too light at night, and a bit noisy. The bed was a little hard for us We had dinner and unfortunately it was very slow arriving and disappointing Despite the few negative points I would stay there again very happily.

Final bit ruined everything
This is a decent hotel in many regards but the final experience ruined everything. We asked the manager to call us a taxi to the ferry, a 3 minute car journey. On arriving at the ferry terminal we were told the fee was 100 kuna (£12 GBP). That is a total rip off. And it turns out that the hotel gets commission on the fee. For a fee this high, we should have been told in advance. We were told the price at the destination with no option but to pay. VERY BAD CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE.

Dear Sir/madam, Thank you for being the guests of Hotel Apolon .We were very pleased to welcome you in our hotel. Unfortunately that is the price of taxi companies here in Stari Grad our hotel doesn't take commision on the fee because whoever we call it is the same price . Once again we apologize for you bad experience and hope to see you again.

Great location on the waterfront
Large suites, very comfortable. Rooms are of a period style so not chic and modern but have lots of character. Beautiful building, friendly helpful staff - helped organise mopeds taxis etc, nice breakfast. Stari Grad is a lovely port town so there are lots of nice restraurants nearby, and you are about 15/20mins from the busier hvar town.

We stayed two nights. We could have used one more day. Stari Grad is the highlight of our trip so far. Great restaurants, beautiful historic streets, great just to wonder around. Room 5 in the hotel is great. It is the only room with a balcony. We would definitely stay there again if we return.

Outstanding hotel in a great location
We stayed two nights in this lovely hotel overlooking the old harbour of Stari Grad. The building has been beautifully restored, and our suite (living room, bedroom, bathroom) was very impressive with lots of space, large and plentiful windows, great period furniture, comfortable bed and well-equipped bathroom. One can't help but feel special staying in a place like this. The location could not be improved, and the staff were very helpful and friendly. On top of that, the food in the restaurant was outstanding. I would highly recommend this hotel without hesitation.

Heritage Villa Apalon is a heritage site. The building is old and beautifully maintained, though the rooms were not very clean. The staff and management were fantastic, nothing was too much trouble for them. The hotel is in Stari Grad not Hvar Centre so if you are looking for a relaxing holiday, then this is the perfect spot for you. I would have preferred to stay in Hvar itself which is where everything happens.

Luxury Hotel Facing Marina
The marina was lined up with dozens of sailboats and yachts full of young Europeans on vacation partying like rock stars. The hotel faces this action directly, but with the windows closed we couldn't hear much. It made for great people watching, but if a more relaxed atmosphere is what you're looking for, maybe don't stay here during high season.
