If you’re trying to figure out where to stay in Pula and you don’t want to end up in a place that feels like a bad holiday flat, Hotel Scaletta is your answer. It’s not going to cost you an arm and a leg, but it still offers comfort, style, and a location that makes sightseeing a breeze. Modern rooms, a welcoming vibe, and top-notch service—just what you need after a day of exploring Pula.
Pula has a lot going for it—Roman ruins, stunning beaches, and a vibe that somehow mixes ancient history with a bit of holiday flair. But here’s the real question: where do you stay?
Sure, there are plenty of options, but I’ve done the legwork for you and found three places that aren’t just about a place to sleep. These spots are the kind of places where you’ll feel like you’re living the high life—without needing to remortgage your house.
They’re convenient, comfortable, and just a little bit fancy. No one wants to roll out of bed and walk an hour to get to the good bits, right? These hotels will put you right in the thick of things, so you can get the most out of Pula without any hassle.
Hotel Scaletta
Just 300 meters from the famous Roman Arena, Hotel Scaletta is as close as you’ll get to history without actually sleeping in the ruins.
The rooms here have that pastel-toned charm that just says “relax,” and everything you need is right at your fingertips—minibar, TV, air conditioning, the works. The hotel is about a 15-minute drive from the nearest beach, but why not wander the main promenade, which is practically on your doorstep, and check out the shops, bars, and eateries?
You could spend hours getting lost in the Old Town, and it’s only 500 meters away. Plus, there’s free Wi-Fi for when you want to post a picture of that ridiculously picturesque sunset (you know you’re going to). Click to view the images >>
Hotel Amfiteatar
Hotel Amfiteatar is where you go when you want to be close to the action without feeling like you’re living in a theme park.
Just 70 meters from the Arena, you’ll feel like you’re in the heart of it all. The rooms? Refurbished in 2024, with smart-room functionality so you can control everything from the lights to the TV with a tap. The ancient Roman-inspired décor gives it a playful touch, so you can enjoy modern comfort with a wink to history.
And don’t even get me started on the food. Chef Deniz Zembo knows what’s up, so expect a menu that’ll make you seriously reconsider your lunch plans. Trust me, you’re not going to want to leave. Click to view the images >>
Deluxe Rooms and Apartments Korzo
If you like the idea of a little more freedom—maybe you’ve got a suitcase full of snacks and need space to stash them—then Deluxe Rooms and Apartments Korzo is where you should be.
It’s right in the middle of Pula, so you’ll be close to everything, but the apartments offer the kind of privacy that makes you feel like you’re not just another tourist. The rooms are spacious, with a fridge, coffee machine, and all the other bits that make it feel like home, without the washing up.
You’ll have everything you need to kick back, and when you’re ready to head out, Pula’s Roman sites and beaches are just a short hop away. Click to view the images >>
