About

Palace Tartaglia

Palace Tartaglia occupies a historic building on Subiceva 2, placing guests in the heart of Split's old town. It is a five-minute walk from Diocletian's Palace and roughly ten minutes by car from Beach Bene. The guest house has just seven rooms, each with city views and a distinctly modern interior against original stone walls.

The emphasis here is on a personal, unhurried stay. Staff are consistently praised for their helpfulness, and the owner is known to assist with luggage and offer thoughtful touches like homemade jam and local liqueur on arrival. A paid airport shuttle and tour assistance are available, making it a practical base for exploring the Dalmatian coast.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small property, limited capacity — With only seven rooms, the guest house may lack the facilities of a larger hotel, such as on-site dining or a full-service lobby.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, which may be a consideration for travellers with animals.
  • No on-site parking — Parking is not listed among the amenities, a common constraint within Split's old town where streets are pedestrianised.
  • Check-in window — Check-in is limited to 14:30–22:30, which may be restrictive for late arrivals despite the airport shuttle service.
