5-Star Hotels in Rovinj

On the western coast of Istria, Rovinj feels like a little slice of Italy washed up on the Croatian shore. Its entire Old Town is a maze of Venetian-style cobblestone lanes, all leading uphill to the baroque Church of St. Euphemia, whose bell tower dominates the skyline. Days here are spent swimming off the rocks at Punta Corrente forest park, browsing the morning fish market, or hopping on a boat to the nearby islands of the Rovinj archipelago for some of the clearest water in the Adriatic.

The compact, car-free Old Town is ideal for couples and solo travelers seeking atmosphere, while families might prefer the modern hotels and apartment complexes with pools along the coast south towards Lone Bay. Rovinj is well-connected, with Pula Airport just a 40-minute drive away, and regular buses link it to other Istrian towns like Poreč and Motovun. It’s a place that rewards slow travel, best explored on foot or by bicycle.

On HOTEVI, you’ll find 44 places to stay in and around Rovinj. The selection is dominated by modern four-star hotels and resorts along the coastline, many with private beaches and spa facilities, alongside a smaller collection of charming, family-run guesthouses tucked within the Old Town itself.
