Podstine Hotel

I was traveling with my wife and two kids, and they would not accommodate us staying as a family before so we had to get two different rooms. Both of the rooms we got were in the same classification yet one was beautiful and spacious with a great view and the other one was about half the size jammed in the corner with a view of a tree. The larger bedroom has very spacious bathroom and the other had a bathroom so small you could barely open the door past the sink. online the hotel looks beautiful, it is right on the water, but it’s less luxurious in person than the photos make you believe. One of the staff was very rude to my 12-year-old daughter because she went up and asked for more blankets as well. The breakfast buffet is mediocre at best. The hotel is also very secluded. It’s about a 10 minute drive from downtown Hvar town and a strange, probably 20 minute walk or 25 minute walk along the promenade, then through the back residential streets.

Orbitz needs to investigate this hotel as the hotel is committing fraud representing as a four star hotel. A four star hotel has basic amenities: hair conditioner for the shower, hot water that lasts more than 2-3 minutes, a functioning air conditioning unit, an attached safe with working digits, door handles that don’t fall off, non-broken toilet paper holders, a mattress that is Better than a college dorm mattress. I have pictures for everything. This hotel should command 90-110 euros tops. Beautiful property and great staff. The most important item for a hotel is the room and this was a failure. The fact they are known issues makes me wonder if the hotel is going out of business as they are not interested in fixing the items that are easy to fix. I felt betrayed staying here and lied to. Four star means certain things. When I stay at a thee star I know what I am getting for that value. This hotel was barely a two star. Please don’t make the same mistake my family and I made.
