tourist tax (about 7 kn per person, per night) is not included in these rates. Hotels
generally accept credit cards and include breakfast in their rates, while most
sobe
ac-
cept only cash and don't offer breakfast. While rates are listed in euros, you'll pay in
kunas. Unless I note otherwise, everyone listed here speaks English (or has a relative
or neighbor who can help translate).
Rates:
If I've listed three sets of rates, separated by slashes, the first is for
peak season (typically mid-July through late Aug), the second is for shoulder season
(roughlyJune-mid-JulyandlateAug-Sept),andthethirdisforoff-season(Oct-May).
If I've listed only two rates, the first is for peak season and the second for shoulder/
off-season. The dates for seasonal rates vary by hotel.
Price Ranges:
To help you sort easily through these listings, I've divided the ac-
commodations into three categories based on the price for a double room with bath
during peak season:
$$$ Higher Priced
—Most rooms €110 or more.
$$ Moderately Priced
—Most rooms between €70-110.
$ Lower Priced
—Most rooms €70 or less.
Prices can change without notice; verify the hotel's current rates online or by
email. For the best prices, always book direct.
