A fabulous hotel situated just at the Rab Town ferry point. Gorgeous old and modern features inside, interesting artwork , marble staircase. A very calming atmosphere. The room with harbour balcony was large , very comfortable. We only stayed one night but wished we had booked for longer. Staff were very professional and polite. Never seen a bottle of fizz at the breakfast buffet before!

An amazing and charming luxury boutique hotel in Rab, Croatia. Situated by the picturesque harbour and at the base of town, one can walk everywhere through the many pedestrian streets filled with shops and wonderful restaurants and taverns (konoba). The hotel is well appointed, excellent includes buffet breakfast, friendly and helpful staff. The beds are comfortable. To shower, one has to step into a very deep tub with high sides - this is the only negative. The infinity pool is situated next to the hotel and raised to give a view of the harbour and gardens. Private parking on-site is expensive, but convenient. One must drive through a narrow opening in the historical city wall - fun. There is an elevator to each all levels. Rooms are equipped with fridge and safe and are all air conditioned. We would gladly return.

Beautiful hotel, perfect location
Very clean hotel, but in the shower the body wash & shampoo containers were empty & the tub didn’t drain well. The desk clerk immediately got the empty containers replaced. Upon arrival he helped us immensely by parking our car in the private lot behind the hotel.

Hotel is in a great location with wonderful seafront views and plenty of character. Our room was small for the price and lacked drawer and storage space The pool is out on a limb, so it is disappointing the hotel offer no poolside service you have to fetch drinks for yourself.

I didn’t stay at the Arbiana. For technical reasons (maintenance) my booking was canceled. I noted however that the hotel was open and had many guests. The hotel booked me at the Imperial Hotel in Rab, which was very good. When I did the booking through Expedia there was a significant price difference between the two hotels, but since I had paid in advance I didn’t see any final invoice to ascertain whether I was entitled to a partial refunding or not.

I highly recommend this beautiful hotel
This is a beautiful old hotel situated on the Marina at Rab. The rooms are beautifully decorated and the view (if you choose one of these rooms) is wonderful. It has a great swimming pool, beautiful breakfast, restaurant area. The breakfasts are excellent. It could not be situated better. Immediately outside the door is the marina and a 2 minute walk to restaurants, the old town etc. Probably 5-7 minutes to the other side of the island for swimming. The staff were great. Helpful and accommodating. I highly recommend.
