Hotel Palace Elisabeth is the oldest hotel on island Hvar, built in place of the residential complex of the Duke’s Palace on the main town square. Its greatest importance was in the period of Venetian rule, when different dukes alternated in the area, with each of them leaving their mark in the history of this place. After the fall of Venice, the palace lost its spark, became neglected and was eventually demolished at the turn of the 19th century.
In its place spa hotel Empress Elisabeth (Kurhotel kaiserin Elisabeth) was built, which successfully overcame the difficulties of the past century. Commemorating centuries-old Venetian heritage that has left this city with beautiful stone monuments and the glory of Austria that helped initiate the development of tourism in a small, remote place, hotel Palace Elisabeth presents you the best of these two worlds, harmoniously blended into a unique experience on this sunny island.
Distinguished by unique architecture and exceptional design, this landmark hotel captures the true essence of Hvar heritage.
All guest rooms overlook the Main square and feature breathtaking views of Hvar Bay and the sunsets over the Paklini Islands. While staying at this five stars historic hotel, you can enjoy a tasty dinner at the hotel’s restaurant or sip cocktails and listen to soothing jazz music on the terrace of the Arsenal Bar that overlooks the Hvar Marina.
Church of St. Cosmas and Damian is located east of the hotel building and is the oldest preserved church in Hvar. The simplicity and intimacy of this sacral venue makes it an ideal space for small weddings, baptisms and other occasions.
