This was truly the best hotel experience I’ve ever had. The hotel was very clean and fresh, and you could immediately tell that they pay attention to details. The staff were incredibly friendly, professional, and always helpful, which made you feel welcome from the very first moment. The service was of very high quality, and everything ran smoothly throughout the stay. The breakfast was fresh with a great selection, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel was calm and relaxing. I am more than satisfied and will definitely come back again. Highly recommended!

A very clean and comfortable stay. The only issue we had was concern over the clarity of food allergens at the breakfast and evening buffets. I spoke to the restaurant manager, (Matteo?) who was extremely helpful and promptly resolved the labelling. Thank you. Overall, we had a peaceful, stress free time with a stunning sea view. Thank you!

The location is perfect, making it easy to enjoy the city, and the hotel itself is spotless. The rooms are spacious, beautifully maintained, and very comfortable. I truly have nothing negative to say — everything exceeded my expectations. I had such an amazing experience, and without a doubt, I will stay here again if I return to Dubrovnik. A perfect 10/10.
