Rooms Rajič

Forty steps from Stepinčeva 4's front gate, Rooms Rajič sits in a residential pocket of Split just inland from the Riva waterfront, with Diocletian's Palace a ten-minute walk through the old town's limestone alleys. Parquet-floored rooms with private entrances suit couples and drivers wanting on-site parking rather than a Old Town hotel.

A shared garden courtyard holds an outdoor fireplace and barbecue, unusual for a Split guesthouse this close to the historic centre, with hardwood floors and single-room AC keeping each unit independent of the rest. Split's ferry port for Hvar and Brač lies within easy walking distance.
