Home/Where to stay/Pag/4- and 5-star hotels
4- and 5-star hotels in Pag
This shortlist covers the 4- and 5-star hotels in Pag, Croatia, from spa villas to seafront town hotels and a family resort. It is for couples, families and business travellers who want a comfortable base on the island.
Staying in Pag
Pag is an island of salt pans, rocky coastline and the white-walled town of Pag itself, where the historic walls, central square and waterfront sit within walking distance of one another. Visitors come for swimming and water sports along the coast, for centuries-old salt production, and for local specialities such as Paški sir and Pag lamb. The island is reached by road over a bridge, which makes it work for a short break as well as a longer stay.
Almost every hotel on this list sits in Pag Town: the addresses place them 0.3 to 1.9 km from the centre, close to the square, the waterfront and the town's churches. Stone House 4M, Hotel Intermezzo, Hotel Plaza, Hotel Park Smokva, Family Hotel Pagus and Meridijan are all within a short walk of the centre, while Villa Emma Pag, Apartvilla Pag and the Modern apartment sit a little further out near the sea. The exception is the 7 Bedroom Amazing Home In Kosljun at 5.7 km, which suits groups wanting space and quiet.
