About
Stara Kala Varos Apartment
Stara Kala Varos Apartment is a 35 m² one-bedroom apartment in Split's Veli Varos neighborhood, just outside the city centrum. The space mixes modern amenities with historic details — exposed brick and beams — and includes a living room with a sofa bed, a separate bedroom, a kitchen with a dining table, and a washing machine. Air conditioning and free Wi-Fi come as standard, and a flat-screen TV with Netflix is available.
The apartment sits within a short stroll of Split's key sights: Diocletian's Palace is about 600 metres away, the Riva promenade around 530 metres, and Marjan Park roughly 870 metres. The property also lists entertainment options like a casino and night club, though these are nearby rather than on-site. With a guest rating of 9.3 out of 142 reviews, it's a well-regarded choice for exploring the city.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Paid parking nearby — While parking is listed as an amenity, at least one review mentions 'paid parking nearby' — so a free dedicated spot is not guaranteed, and costs may apply.
- No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, so travelers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
- Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 22:00, which may be restrictive for late arrivals or early flights.
- Compact space — At 35 m², the apartment is compact — fine for couples or solo travelers, but may feel snug for larger groups or longer stays.
