I was absolutely bowled over by the whole experience! I stayed for 5 nights on a rather last minute trip. Wonderful setting with beautiful views over the sea, looking at Lokrum Island and the old walled town. When I arrived the sun was setting and I couldn't stop looking through the panoramic windows in reception and taking photos. I got a room upgrade to one with a partial sea view which was be good. Sensus restaurant also good, I treated myself to an evening meal there on my first and last nights there. The best hotel I have ever stayed in. Highly recommended.

Now this place can claim to be 5 star. We selected it as it was outside the city walks ( 10 min walk) so we could get taxi to the hotel otherwise you have to carry your gear in.
Beautiful location with great views to the city. Bar area with views is magnificent as was the bar service. The same in the restaurant and very helpful reception.
Pool and gym area are great. This December period is low season so very few people which makes things fantastic. No crowds to deal with and every thing you want to see is accessible and easily done.
In peak season sardines feel squashed with the crowds and what might take a couple of hours, like the walk along the city walls could take hours longer.
Rooms are spacious and well fitted out and the balcony was a real plus. A/c like in most hotels has central controls as is set to high for us. So we turned it off and opened the balcony door. Great sleeps on excellent beds.

We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay whilst we were in Dubrovnik! Everything about this hotel was just perfect and the view from the hotel overlooking Dubrovnik Old Town was absolutely stunning!
Whilst we were in Dubrovnik I unfortunately became ill and was unable to travel home as planned. The staff members were incredibly helpful and arranged for us to be able to stay in the hotel, which we were so grateful for.
Thank you for making our stay in Dubrovnik absolutely amazing!

Great city, stunning heritage. Great views of the old city from the balconies.
Hotel is lovely, food is great. Staff lovely. Rooms however are not sound proof, so we're spending ??170 per night to hear people scrapping their chairs in the room above. Got four hours sleep because of this Christmas eve :( Very disappointing this has been the experience because everything else about the hotel is great. Big big shame.
