As the name suggests, this 15th-century building located in the heart of Šibenik's Old Town offers a luxurious experience worthy of its palatial past. Opened as a boutique hotel following extensive refurbishments, guests are met with exposed brickwork, original wooden beams, iron banisters, ceiling frescoes, gilded mirrors, and artworks that maintain the property’s heritage and original Renaissance grandeur.
The hotel has a stylish lounge and a ground floor patisserie for breakfast and daytime snacks and a terrace for alfresco dining in the summer months. All of the 17 individually designed and elegant guest rooms offer plenty of living space and feature cream and beige hues, rich drapes, lavish fabrics, marble bathrooms, and modern amenities. Some also have balconies offering lovely views over the small, cobble-stoned square.
We love this chic boutique hotel in the heart of Šibenik's Old Town for its Renaissance-inspired decor, individually decorated rooms, and attentive service.
