History
Heritage Hotel FERMAI occupies a rare Art Nouveau (Secession) building in the heart of Split, Croatia, a short walk from Diocletian's Palace. Completed in 1914 to a design by the Croatian architect Petar Senjanović, the building was originally created for a cooperative association and, from 1974, served as a seat of the University of Split; archaeological finds during construction attested to Roman-era urban life on the spot.
After a restoration of around 5.5 million euros by owner Quatro Company, the building reopened as Hotel FERMAI in May 2021 and joined Accor's MGallery collection that summer, becoming the first MGallery hotel in Croatia. Its interiors, by Studio Franić & Šekoranja, blend period Secession elegance with contemporary comfort across 31 rooms and 4 suites. The name 'Fermai' honours a local dialect word meaning 'stop, wait.'
