The Property — Job apartments
Job Apartments is a straightforward, no-frills 3-star in a modern block near the eastern edge of Split’s city centre. The lobby is a small, functional reception desk with a lift; the USP is practical self-catering space at a rate that undercuts beachfront hotels. Suits budget-conscious travellers, remote workers, or independent couples who want a clean base and don’t need hotel facilities.
Chronicles of Split
Split grew directly from the retirement palace of Roman emperor Diocletian, built around 305 AD, which still forms the city’s walled core. After the empire fell, the palace was colonised by locals, turned into a dense medieval warren of houses, churches and alleys. The Habsburgs added a grid-planned 19th-century extension, then the port and railways arrived, turning it into Dalmatia’s transport hub. Today Split is the jumping-off point for the Adriatic islands, a lively university city, and a bar-and-café culture that spills out of the palace’s ancient cellars.
Best Time to Visit
Full Split guide →Best months
May, June and September – settled warmth, long daylight, but pre- and post-July/August crush.
Peak / festival surge
July and August. The Diocletian's Dream festival (mid-July), Ultra Europe electronic music festival (first week July) and general summer crush push hotel prices to double off-peak rates. Book months ahead.
Budget shoulder season
April, October – still 15-20°C, dry most days, accommodation 30-50% cheaper than peak, fewer crowds for the Old Town.
Weather & packing
Summers are hot and dry but can get a strong afternoon bora wind off the mountains, so carry a light windproof jacket even in July. Pack a reusable water bottle – public drinking fountains (from the Roman aqueduct) are safe and plentiful.
Live City Briefing — Split
- The Riva promenade is pedestrianised all summer; expect busier ferry queues to Hvar and Brač by 8am.
- New e-scooter rental zones near the main bus station – watch for restrictions in the Old Town, where riding is banned after 10pm.
- Diocletian's Palace tours now require advance booking for smaller groups due to new heritage protection rules – buy tickets online at least a week ahead for July.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Job apartments, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floor 2 or higher facing the courtyard. This gets you above street level and away from the casual din of Riva or nearby bars.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms facing the street, particularly on floors 1–2, as Riva can be rowdy late into the night, and ground-floor rooms suffer from passing pedestrian noise.
Best views
The best view is from a top-floor, sea-facing room – you may get a glimpse of the harbour and the Riva promenade. Courtyard rooms offer a quiet, if unspectacular, outlook.
Quietest floors
Floors 2–4 (top floor) are quietest, especially if they face the courtyard. Upper floors also reduce noise from the small lift mechanism.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel is on a pedestrianised street off Split’s Riva – expect people noise, bar chatter, and delivery trucks in early morning. The lift is small and old, so it clanks on the floor 2 turn.
Insider tips
1. If driving, ask reception about the nearest public garage (Šperun or Koteks) – street parking is almost impossible in the pedestrian zone. 2. Request a room with a mini-fridge during booking – not all rooms have one, and it’s handy for keeping water cold in the summer heat.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top Attractions in Split
💡 Bring a book or picnic from Pazar and sit on the far eastern end near the fish market, where locals outnumber tourists. Avoid paying 30 kuna for a coffee at front-row cafes—walk one street inland for half the price.
💡 Buy a bag of sour plums (višnje) and almonds for a cheap snack. Haggle only if buying in bulk—locals pay listed prices. Best visited before 11am when produce is freshest.
💡 Enter through the Bronze Gate from the waterfront for a dramatic view under the vaults. Go early (before 9am) to avoid crowds.
💡 Walk up the 500 steps from Sustipan for a quieter route than the main road. Take a swim at Kašjuni beach on the western side—free and less busy than Bačvice.
💡 From the fortress, walk downhill slightly to a restaurant above the quarry to see the dragon skulls left from filming. Take bus 22 from the main station (10 kuna).
