Le Meridien Lav, Split

The price does not fit to the service. No welcome drink at a 5* hotel? Very old pool and much too little for so many guests. Restaurants are good and food is good.

Very good, top service and level.

The resort is very beautiful but the level of service lacks attentiveness.

The breakfast was mediocre. Always the same offer for €25 pp. A major issue is the the absolute lack of security. Anyone can enter the premises and go up to the rooms without being challenged. There is no supervision of children in the indoor pool. As part from that. Beautiful premises.

The rooms was ok

Its people. Highly oriented to make guests confortable and happy. I had a especial family request that was every day attended. Thanks

Was disappointed with the room. Paid the premium for the sea view. Room 658 has an ubstructed view of the off in the distance. The view is blocked by trees. The only thing to view was the guests in the room outside of the balcony. Also, found the staff by the beach bar very rude on 3 separate instances.

The hotel is a resort- like set up. On a Marina with large beautiful boats. Has a nice pool overlooking the beach and the indoor pool for those looking to get out of heat! The tiered lounging spots nestled on a hillside amongst the pines. Plenty of refreshments everywhere. 5 nice restaurants on premise. Just lovely and staff very friendly!

We love this hotel

Everyone was friendly, the setting is beautiful, the amenities are immaculate. The bed was incredibly comfortable and love Malin and goetz products in the bathroom! We had a lovely stay.

Great property 20 mins away from Split

Very large hotel with lots of different areas and things to do. Plenty of sunbeds. Boat trips run direct from resort. Our room didn’t include meals but lots of nice areas to eat and drink . Pebble beach but sand when stepping further out into the sea. Only stayed 3 nights but could happily stay longer.

Great Staff, great hotel on the beach. Great food

Area around the property was shabby and property was way over priced for the amenities it offered. No one explained to us and the property pics online suggest they might have a private beach which does not seem to be the case

If you want an average, huge, sprawling hotel that caters to conventions and you never want to leave the property this is your place. This was not the right place for us. Our family of 5 (3 kids in their early 20’s) love to do pool & beach but we also love easy access to activities, tours, shops, bars, restaurants and enjoy the culture & sights. There is nothing to do in the hotel and nothing around the hotel. And even though the hotel was supposedly sold out it felt like a ghost town. You need to go to Split if yiu want to do anything & it’s not cheap or convenient. The hotel has no transportation so an uber or taxi is necessary. Which at best is 30min drive and $18e uber or $35e taxi each way during the slow season. IF you can get one. We had uber cxl us several times because it’s too far & the traffic is horrific. And we were there 2 weeks BEFORE the season begins! Staff was fair- guys out front were very friendly & helpful & morning restaurant hostess was great but I can’t say the same for front desk or concierge. We travel a lot & simply like to feel like we matter. But we did not feel it here. Front desk was very unhelpful in a reservation situation (which got fixed by our 3rd party agency) and concierge couldn’t have been more bored or unhelpful. Hotel was clean & overall an average Marriott but not the place for us. We stayed in 2 other hotels during our stay & they were amazing. Price is way too high for what you get here.

Beautiful hotel with a nice new walkway along the beach to visit other restaurants and feel the ocean breeze. A great way to spend a birthday and they were so accommodating with a cake in the room. We were super sad to have to leave.

AMAZING

Lovely hotel, had a really nice time. When I arrived I was given a twin room when I’d booked a double as the staff assumed I’d want to be next door to my family. I explained to them I would’ve appreciated them asking me before changing my room type because I didn’t want a twin room for a single person. Beautiful room regardless and enjoyed our time there.

The room you book is not what you get! We booked a 1 bedroom suite with a Sea View (2.5X the base rate). It's not a sea view. It's a tree view! See attached photo. Half the staff were very friendly. Half the staff were not! Several unprofessional interactions: 1. Being denied a change of room. 2. We got a room on the 6th floor. Although the sea is behind these trees, they need to be clear on the listing it's a "Partial Sea View". The rooms on the 8th and 9th clear the tree line. When asked for these, their reply: "We don't have rooms on the 9th floor". See photo attached. Clearly, they have rooms on the 9th floor, AND we met a guest staying on the 9th floor! What was the need to lie? 3. When we called for Room service: the lady refused to acknowledge our order because we pronounced "Gnocchi" incorrectly. They wanted it pronounced as "GNYOKKI" versus our pronunciation of "GNOKKI" 4. Overall quality of food at the property for the high price is unacceptable. Example: PLAIN spaghetti KIDS portion: 16 Euros Plus a 4 Euro delivery charge! 5. Asian restaurant on site did not have their billing systems working, and could not give us a bill, nor receipt, and refused charging it to the room. They demanded cash or credit card. When I asked them to send me a copy later, he said he can't. Despite being a 'Gold Elite' member with Bonvoy, it made NO difference here. We have stayed at over 30 Bonvoy properties over the years. This is by far the worst experience ever.

Nice beach

Great marina and beach area.

The stuff was inconsiderate and when I approached them with a request they just brushed me off. We were really looking forward to stay and enjoy the property, but unfortunately it was not the case for us.

Value for money ( Vale la pena )

The hotel and staff were generally excellent. However, the hotel had corporate events on during our stay. This meant that some of the hotel’s facilities were either not available to us, or too busy, including restaurants and pub. This would not have been a problem for us had there been any warning or notice to the hotel’s other guests. There was no such notification and as a result we weren’t able to plan around this and had to eat out

One of the ladies in reception, Mia, was amazing in making sure our stay was enjoyable and comfortable since I recently had knee surgery. She made sure to get me a room near the elevator to minimize how much I had to walk around, it is a large property.

Beautiful property!! Great restaurants on the property. Loved the bathtub!

Large hotel that is family friendly. We stayed here with our 5 year old daughter and had a lovely time. The hotel lobby is grand with beautiful decor. However the rooms, not so much. Our room was outdated, including the bathroom. They had breakfast every morning with a wide selection of food. The outdoor pool and beach were nice but the indoor pool was not. The restaurants were amazing especially the Italian one. Also note that this place is a good 25 minute drive from old town - longer if there's traffic.

We had a wonderful stay with you. We are very particular guests but we had no reason to complain about anything apart from the sun loungers situation at Gooshters. We loved everything else. We absolutely loved the beach club but having been informed that loungers can not be reserved there, we went for an early walk at around 7.30am and nearly the whole of the front row loungers had towels on them. The staff there were very reluctant to give me a towel even though we would have stayed there. When I asked about the towels on the front row loungers, the member of staff told me that reception had agreed to those towels being placed there. I spoke to reception staff who were as confused as me. My complaint was noted. The following day, the situation was exactly the same again and by 8am, towels were placed on most of the frobt row loungers. I took photos every 30 minutes to show that most of these were empty until around 10.30am. This was totally unfair. Could you please provide an explanation for this. I would greatly appreciate this.

In general our stay was ok, but as a family (of 3) we travel a reasonable amount each year and there were a number of cumulative elements of this stay which meant for the cost we felt comparatively it was average based on the cost. Internally the facilities were of a good standard and the staff were all great. The bathrooms in the rooms feel a little dated and less well finished than the other areas, but no real issue. Externally around the pool area and the associated beach area things were a bit more tired (i.e. not as clean, things broken, quality of loungers etc). Lack of children's meal options was a frustration, alongside the cost vs quality of food (at the Main Bar and Pool Bar ....other restaurants whilst pricey were decent so didn't have a huge issue with that). As an example, it was over 60 Euros for a 'kids' chicken and rice, a Poke Bowl and a fruit plate with some sparkling water and a coke from the pool bar. Also worth noting that the Underside Pub was closed for the duration of our stay. Not sure if they would normally show sports etc and offer an alternative space for evening entertainment, but otherwise there was a DJ next to the coffee shop only on Thursdays. Near the property there isn't a great deal. There is a supermarket and a few restaurants, but the road the hotel is accessed from is very busy, and getting taxi's or driving out to anywhere is hampered by the level of traffic the majority of the day. Overall, all i can say is it was ok.

Hotel was not at the standard we expected. Over priced, poor quality beds and sea view was in fact partial with half looking at the back of hotel and entrance lobby. There was a “storm” which wasn’t too bad by the morning, but led to the two beach bars being closed all day, the two on-site restaurants were full with residents and non-residents (priority to residents…?) which meant the only choice the staff gave was room service, buffet for €50pp which, with a child is expensive, or a taxi into Split at €40e/w was not what we were expecting or thought was reasonable to be offered. Left a sour taste when the rooms were in excess of €350/night. If we return, we will only stay in Split old town

Great location, lovely staff and clean property but the rooms need some upgrade. Bathroom and furniture in the room are too old.

Much busier than expected. Everything was crowded. No sun lounges, no seats at breakfast. Beautiful location but probably won’t stay there again. Traffic makes it not somewhere you can easily travel from.
