Almayer Art & Heritage Hotel

Almayer Art & Heritage Hotel is a small and charming boutique hotel situated in a carefully newly-renovated 19th-century building in the heart of the ancient historic centre of Zadar in Croatia. The hotel features nine exclusive double rooms, a bar and a leafy secret garden in the main building, plus four stylish double rooms in a nearby annexe. Named after the Inn of the same name in Alessandro Baricco’s novel “Ocean Sea”, this romantic jewel, built in 1863, after a detailed and comprehensive renovation and adaptation in 2017 is transformed into a sensitively reimagined, distinctive, four-star hotel and a new focal point of the city. Specially designed by the owners to emanate the atmosphere of the home, before the classic hotel, it becomes a place for modern epicureans and dreamers. Almayer is not the usual hotel. Besides comprising all the amenities expected today of a modern city and heritage hotel, it is a place where guests are treated as friends of the family, a place that allows the guest to become part of it. A warm, welcoming interior with a carefully curated mix of vintage and custom-made furniture gives Almayer the feel of a well-loved house, rather than a hotel. It is a place to really feel at home. At Almayer you can choose between standard and deluxe double rooms in the main building as well as four more double rooms at Almayer Dépendance annexe.
