Welcome to Hyatt Regency Hotel Zadar
The FERM European Rice Convention 2027 will take place at the Hyatt Regency Zadar, a five-star hotel ideally located in the heart of Zadar, overlooking the Adriatic Sea and within easy reach of the historic Old Town.
The Hyatt Regency Zadar is set within one of the city’s most iconic historic buildings. Originally built in 1911 by the Luxardo family as a residence and liqueur factory, the landmark later became home to the famous Maraska factory, closely linked to Zadar’s renowned Maraschino tradition. Carefully restored and integrated into the contemporary hotel, the historic building now blends more than a century of local heritage with modern five-star hospitality.
