5-star hotels in Novigrad
Five 5-star stays in Novigrad, all villas or holiday homes within about 3 km of the centre. They suit couples, families and small groups who want their own pool, kitchen and parking on the Istrian coast.
Staying in Novigrad
Novigrad is a small Croatian town on the Istrian peninsula, known for its fishing tradition, its compact historical old town and its pebbly and rocky coves. The historic core, Stari Grad, is pedestrian-friendly, with restaurants, galleries and the sea close at hand, and the town is a well-known base for cycling and family holidays. It also sits well for day trips to Poreč, Rovinj, Umag and the hilltop towns and vineyards of the interior, and it has a marina.
The 5-star properties on this shortlist are not in the old town itself. Their addresses place them in the residential streets around it - 43. Istarske Divizije, Ulica Glagoljasa, Ulica Gioacchina Favretta, Carla D Ambrosio, Rotonda and Sveti Servul - between 0.6 km and 1.4 km from the centre, while Stancijeta and Stancija Bružada lie further out at 1.2 km and 3.2 km. Almost all are villas or homes with a kitchen and private parking, so they suit couples, families and groups who want space, self-catering and a pool within a short drive or walk of the old town.
