Top Novalja Hotel Reviews

Joel Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Area was walkable. Staff was kind. Windows were soundproof and filtered music from nearby beach. It was clean and safe. Would recommend and will definitely be back. "

Hotel Olea

10/10 Excellent

"It's my second time staying here A few notes to improve The path walking to the old town needs some serious lightning at night. I understand it's not part of the property but the hotel should work with the city to put some lighting at night. It can get very sketchy coming back at night. If I'm ordering food in the outside area, don't make the customer go inside to pay, I'm paying a premium for this service. It's called dine in for a reason. The jacuzzi wasn't warm Everything else was great, breakfast was amazing, the pool and the room was spacious. "

Kristal Paris Resort
