4-star hotels in Krk
A shortlist of 4-star hotels on the island of Krk, from the historic core of Krk Town to the coast at Rova and Porat. It is for travellers weighing a central base against a beachside stay, and for families, couples and business guests alike.
Staying in Krk
Krk is an island in the Adriatic Sea, in the Kvarner Gulf, and it is joined to the mainland by the Krk Bridge, so it can be reached by car or bus. Krk Town is the island's main town, with a historic centre, a harbour and a range of hotels, restaurants and shops; Baška, Malinska and Njivice are the other main towns named on the island, each with its own atmosphere and amenities.
These hotels sit in two broad parts of the island. Several addresses are in Krk Town itself — Lukobran, Obala Hrvatske Mornarice, Ribarska Ul., Slavka Nikolica, Ježevac, Braće Linardić and Dobrinjska — all within 1.5 km of the centre, which suits a short break on foot and business guests who want to be in town. The rest are strung along the coast away from the centre: Rova, Porat, Brzac, Kralja Tomislava, Kosici and Lisina, from 4.1 to 11.9 km out, with pools and beaches nearby, which suits couples and families who want to settle in by the sea.
