4-star hotels in Opatija

A shortlist of 4-star hotels in Opatija, chosen from the town's stock of historic and modern properties for couples, families and business travellers who want a comfortable base on the Kvarner coast.

Staying in Opatija

Opatija is a small coastal town whose centrepiece is the Lungomare, a 12-kilometre promenade linking it with Volosko and Lovran. The architecture mixes Baroque and Art Nouveau styles, the cultural calendar includes the Opatija Summer Festival, and the town is compact enough to explore on foot while serving as a base for the wider Kvarner region, including the islands of Krk and Cres.

The hotels on this shortlist sit along and just above the main coastal strip: several carry addresses on Maršala Tita and Viktora Cara Emina, within a few hundred metres of the centre, while others stand further out towards Ičići and the hills above town. That spread suits different stays: couples wanting the promenade and evening restaurants, families drawn to pools, playgrounds and nearby beaches, business travellers needing meeting rooms and a central address, and short-break visitors who want everything within walking distance.
