It’s official! Croatia’s city of Split has been named Europe’s ultimate dopamine destination in a comprehensive study of dopamine-inducing locations across the continent. The sun-drenched city has more than 2,631 daylight hours a year plus high air quality. Dopamine is a fascinating brain chemical that makes you feel happy, motivated, alert and focused – all boosted by the many natural and cultural activities around Split. For guests looking to boost their dopamine the ultimate place to stay is the Hotel Ambasador, where modern aesthetics meets Mediterranean lay-back charm. Perfectly positioned to take advantage of the city’s mood-enhancing offerings, the hotel provides easy access to the iconic Riva Promenade, where guests can stroll along the waterfront.
Hotel Ambasador has been an integral part of Split’s soulful personality since it opened its doors in 1937. Guests can let their eyes gaze across sun-filled rooms to views of Split’s UNESCO-protected Old Town beyond the water. With rooms and suites to satisfy all tastes the essence of Mediterranean hedonism is expressed in masterpieces of contemporary accommodation.
The ranking of Split as Europe’s top mood-boosting destination was based on a comprehensive analysis of five key criteria: sunshine hours, cuisine, recreational opportunities, air quality, and green spaces. It achieved a perfect score of 100 dopamine points, solidifying its position as the ultimate feel-good destination.
Split’s impressive levels of sunshine allow visitors to soak up mood-enhancing vitamin D, a natural mood booster making the city a veritable paradise for those keen to shake off winter blues and embrace a sunnier disposition. Allied with the city’s commitment to environmental preservation, Split boasts remarkably high air quality which not only contributes to overall well-being but also enhances brain function and mood regulation.
This year Hotel Ambasador is poised to welcome guests seeking to tap into Split’s mood-boosting potential. The accolade cements Split’s claim to outstanding natural beauty, its commitment to environmental stewardship, and its warm hospitality.
Whether you want to shake off the winter blues, revitalise a summer getaway or simply lift a sluggish mood, Split’s prescription for happiness is hard to beat. With its perfect blend of sunshine, sea air, and green spaces, coupled with world-class accommodation at the Hotel Ambasador, Split is set to become the go-to destination for boosting dopamine levels in 2025 and beyond.
