The Grand Hotel Palazzo is as aristocratic and pedigreed as its name suggests.
Built in 1910 for the local upper classes holidaying on the Porec Peninsula, the hotel was completely renovated in 2007 and retains much of its old-world charm.
There are splendid views across to Sveti Nikola Island and the Old Town, and the setting of pine trees and the waves of the sea combine to create a remarkably fresh Mediterranean experience – a feast for the senses.
The hotel has a spacious and bright restaurant serving local Istrian as well as international cuisine, and diners can enjoy fine views across the sea.
Also enjoy home-made cakes in the waterside café bar, or cocktails in the Vienna cocktail bar, and relax in the Austro-Hungarian splendour.
The cocktail barman is mentioned in the Guinness Book of Records.
The on-site spa offers a range of beauty and relaxation treatments and the nearest beach is just 10 minutes' walk away.
You can also take a boat out to Sveti Nikola Island or head into town for a bit of shopping or to enjoy its numerous entertainments and eateries.
