Central room in old town, clean, good air conditioning, and smooth self check-in / out. Sound does travel from rooms above / below, so ear plugs may be helpful for light sleepers.

Great location in the center of Split. The hosts were lovely and met us when we first arrived. The apartment and clean, and despite being in the center there was not much outside noise. Would recommend.

Thomas was amazing! He met us at the ferry port and helped pull one of our suitcases the 10 minutes to the room.
The hotel is in a perfect location in Old Town with everything within a short walk away.
We would definitely stay there again!

A spacious apartment right in the heart of Split, a short walk to all the sites. The bed was comfortable and everything looks brand new.

Our experience at Imperator was excellent in all respects. Marina was great at meeting our taxi and taking us to the room, and Thomas was also great in helping with our luggage to the next hotel. Position was unbeatable, central in the Old Town, and convenient to numerous bars and restaurants (& gelato bars). We were warned about restaurant noise from the nearby dining but never found it a problem. Overall we can highly recommend Guesthouse Imperator.

Thomas was amazing, he explained everything to us. It is a bit older and lots of stairs but inside it has been quite refreshed and quaint. It was perfect location wise and exactly what we needed for our stay.

Perfect for solo travelling.
Very clean and inside the old town. A little difficult to find and navigate the alleys, but google maps will get you there. Probably one of the best stays ive experienced in a while.

The absolute nicest staff and airport transport driver! Great location to explore the city and very clean.
The only negative was the hot water didn’t last very long (had to take more like a warm shower if you had to wash your hair). Would definitely stay here again!

Nice and in the center of old town
The room was very nice. A little bit more storage space in the bath would have been nice. And the guests who stayed in the room above us were anoying because we have heard every foot step.

Wow! What a first class stay! Thomas met us at the edge of the old town and guided us right to our room. The room was very quiet and had great bedding. I will definitely book again .
