Marriott Bonvoy's design-forward lifestyle brand, AC Hotels by Marriott®, has unveiled its premier location in Croatia with the introduction of AC Hotel by Marriott Split. Nestled in the upper levels of the impressive 135-meter Westgate Tower, the hotel offers awe-inspiring vistas of the Adriatic Sea and the distinctive skyline of Split, promising guests The Perfectly Precise Hotel™ experience.

Matthew Boettcher, Vice President and Global Brand Leader, Distinctive Select Brands, expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "Introducing AC Hotels' design-centric hospitality to the Dalmatian Coast signifies a broadening of Marriott Bonvoy's presence in this region. Positioned strategically in Split's urban heart, the AC Hotel by Marriott Split aims to be the go-to destination for business and leisure travelers, ensuring a smooth, enjoyable stay."

The architectural brilliance of Otto Barić combined with the interiors masterminded by Croatia's Atellior Studio gives the hotel its striking modern appeal. Its interiors, characterized by a harmonious color scheme and natural elements like oak and brass, create a seamless transition from indoors to outdoors. A glimpse of a historic 1700-year-old Roman aqueduct can be seen through a glass partition. Spaces designed for communal interaction ensure utmost comfort, ideal for business dialogues or relaxed gatherings. The hotel's AC Lounge is adorned with artwork from famed Croatian artist Vatroslav Kuliš, exuding the aura of an exquisite gallery.

With 214 rooms showcasing a sleek, minimalist design, guests are treated to a flexible environment and panoramic city views.

Reflecting Croatia's coastal culinary tradition, the hotel's Laureto Restaurant, led by Croatian Chef Goran Šikić, dishes out exquisite Mediterranean flavors. Cumano Bar, on the other hand, offers innovative cocktails, including their signature AC Gin & Tonic. Additional amenities include the 178 SPA with an indoor pool and sauna, a spacious meeting area, and a modern gym offering panoramic views of the Adriatic Sea.

Ljubica Bauk, General Manager of AC Hotel by Marriott Split, commented on this significant addition: "Marriott International's decision to introduce the AC brand to Croatia marks a pivotal moment for our local hospitality sector. Our aim is to bolster the area's economic trajectory, appealing to both business and leisure visitors while building strong corporate relationships. We eagerly await our guests at AC Hotel Split to showcase what makes our hotel unique."

Croatia, known for its mesmerizing landscapes, azure waters, and quaint coastal settlements, has always attracted visitors. Split, Croatia's cultural jewel, acts as a portal to the scenic Dalmatian islands like Hvar, Brac, and Vis. AC Hotel by Marriott Split, due to its central location, ensures guests are a stone's throw away from iconic landmarks like Diocletian's Palace and the bustling Riva promenade.
