Best for travelers who want a very small, personal B&B experience within easy walking distance of Diocletian’s Palace and the Riva.

Best for travelers who prefer a small hotel with an on-site restaurant, bookable spa treatments, and hotel-style services in the city centre.
When Miraval wins: choose Miraval if you want an intimate, boutique B&B with just four rooms, a central old‑town address, and a simple, apartment-style stay where most local sights are a short walk away.
When Irini Luxury Rooms wins: choose Irini if you want a small hotel with more conventional hotel services — daily buffet breakfast, an on-site restaurant, luggage storage and a dedicated spa program — while still staying in central Split.
Bottom line: both properties put you in Split’s historic core; pick Miraval for a tiny, B&B-style stay and Irini Luxury Rooms for a small-hotel experience with on-site dining and spa offerings.
