Hotels in Pula, Croatia

Pula is a thriving coastal city steeped in history, situated on Croatia's coast along the Adriatic Sea. A vital shipbuilding center, a tradition that stems from its role as a chief port of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, it has some of the most majestic Roman ruins in Europe. The Roman Amphitheater is particularly notable. Called the Arena by locals, and toured heavily by visitors, its ancient outer wall is almost entirely intact and remains of its original fittings are visible. Pula hotels offer striking scenic views and close access to popular sites.

Hotel Valsabbion

The Valsabbion is set on a scenic beach above the Pjescana Uvala (Sandy Bay). It is adjacent to a small beach and a five-minute walk to the boating at the marina. After a long day of beach activity and walks around the Roman ruins, you can enjoy a decadent meal in the hotel's award-winning restaurant, rated the best restaurant in Croatia by GaultMillau, or ease your muscles and rejuvenate in the hotel's medical spa.
