Hotel Bellevue Dubrovnik is set to re-emerge as an icon of private boutique luxury and design, to create a fresh new vibe after its complete refurbishment in spring 2019. Carved into a cliff-side, with floor-to-ceiling windows revealing the vast Adriatic, five-star boutique Hotel Bellevue Dubrovnik is a state-of-the-art seaside retreat around the bay from Dubrovnik’s a magnificent 6th-century Old Town. Set on a 30m-high cliff on Miramare Bay, Hotel Bellevue Dubrovnik gives you some of the most cinematic panoramas of the Dalmatian coast. From the moment you arrive, you’re immersed in a world of contemporary luxury and elegant service that makes you feel as if you’re on your own private ocean liner. Yet it is just a 10-minute walk down to the mesmerizing medieval city centre.

Great hotel!

My daughter and I have just spent 5 nights here and it has exceeded our expectations! Honestly I’d be really nit picking if I was to find any faults! The staff, service, rooms and ambience were spot on. We ate lunch everyday at the beach which was always good and the cocktails were fabulous. Dinner at vapour was delicious and drinks in the outside bar were a lovely experience. Many thanks hotel Bellevue!

Hotel Excelsior Dubrovnik

With its prestigious location, just steps from the UNESCO Old City of Dubrovnik, Hotel Excelsior is ready to show its revamped grandeur as one of the most lavish hotels on the Adriatic. Housed in a former 1913 royal villa and built to take full advantage of a west-facing view of the glorious Old Town, Hotel Excelsior Dubrovnik enjoys the most enviable location of any hotel in the city – just a five-minute walk from the medieval fortress walls. It has been welcoming famous guests from the start, including Queen Elizabeth II and Elizabeth Taylor. It’s only when you go there that you fully appreciate the magnificence of the setting: the tranquil gardens in which to stroll, a beautiful beach and three restaurants, all offering cinematic views of the Adriatic. For added luxury, there is also an indoor swimming pool, plus a glamorous spa and fitness centre.

Great service and location. A lovely hotel.

Overpriced

Reviewed By 384harrietb

Spa prices have increased 20% to what it says on their website, but staff said it’s not their problem. Asked to have a shorter massage (40 mins instead of 50), in order to still have one (I had limited budget for this) and was refused even though the spa was empty. Found this experience pretty disappointing for what’s meant to be a spa hotel. There are much cheaper and longer massages etc in the Old Town so would recommend travelling out for this. Need to book OT massages a day in advance. Food and drink is expensive too - £4 for a bottle of water / £22 for buffet. Food at lunch and dinner is average. Can walk 20 mins to a strip of good restaurants including a great Mexican and Italian. Breakfast was good though, plenty of options. Lots of sunbeds too. Beds comfy; rooms clean and decent air con.

This should be a 5? hotel can't wait it high enough

Reviewed By A2364FJsaram

Normally I write a review at the end of our holiday but I honestly can't rate this hotel and its staff high enough. We arrived 2 and bit hours later than anticipated due to flight delays , the reception staff could not have been more friendly, welcoming and helpful. We were lucky and got upgraded to a superior double room with sea view and was left a snack to eat along with a room that had all high quality amenities including a stocked fridge with a range of drinks , a variety of different teas and coffees with a kettle, super king size bed, bathroom fully equipped with quality towels , flannels shampoo,soap, conditioner even a hairdryer. The hotel literally has everything you can think of including the most friendly, helpful staff from those at reception, tui staff , shop staff bar and restaurant staff . And the chef well , you'd think you was in a top restaurant , even though the food is a buffet style it is the best food I've ever had with a huge variety of anything you could imagine and the taste and quality is out of this world you won't want to stop eating. I can't recommend this hotel enough not just because it has everything but the staff are literally top class and will stop and have a friendly chat with you every time you see them . So welcoming. 1000% recommend this hotel and will definitely definitely go back again

Nice and relaxing stay

Reviewed By misurac

We traveled as a couple and we spent 5 nights at Sun Gardens. We got the deluxe room with a sea view and balcony; it was a nice room, and the housekeeping service managed to keep it clean every day. Improvements suggested: ensure toiletries set is complete in the room, so shampoo, conditioner, AND shower gel - we had to buy our shower gel as it was not there 3 days out of 5; the balcony is part of the room, so you may want to clean that too. The breakfast was good; the quality of products was good and it offered a large variety of options. The breakfast staff were super attentive and ensured we had all we needed at all times. On our 4th day, I noticed that the beans were slightly drier than usual and had an acidic back taste, so I let the waiter know and they replaced them immediately. Improvement suggestions: juices were horrible, and that is misaligned with the rest of the breakfast - they were tasteless and felt way too cheap. Moreover, breakfast runs from 8 am to 11 am, and from a customer perspective, 8 am may result to be a bit too late for a breakfast, so that felt like the breakfast time was designed to suit the hotel more than the occupants. We have not tried the room service, but it is worth mentioning that there was a (roughly) 5 euros charge per order fee in place, which I found rather crazy - I am not used to and will never get used to paying a fee to make a purchase! The facilities were nice too; we visited the spa a few times, as we used it as a nice break from outdoor swimming pools and beaches. Even though we always visited the SPA in the afternoon, the SPA bar was open only once, and we would have wanted to order some drinks every time during our 3 visits; this needs to be improved too. Other minor suggested improvements are removing the mold around the jacuzzi, and replacing the broken lights in the spa, when you lay on the bed, that is the only thing you see!! We visited the private beaches and all the swimming pools, and we found them nice and clean. I wanted to take the jet ski, but we did not have enough time, unfortunately! The reception staff has been rather good too, and some of them were also able to speak multiple languages (i.e. Italian). Parking is Free for Sun Garden customers. All in all, we had a very good experience at the Sun Gardens, and I would surely recommend it.

Fabulous Hotel

We are just back from a week in this fabulous hotel. It is in an excellent location, close to the beach and within easy walking distance to the town centre. The girls on reception were outstanding and the restaurant staff were very courteous and helpful.The food was first class. This hotel is certainly worth more than 3 stars.

Holiday perfection

Reviewed By doonhamergeordie

We stayed here for 4 nights after a few days in Dubrovnik. What an amazing place! The views are spectacular, the staff are so friendly and helpful. Special mention to Obred for making our holiday so special. The room was lovely with a huge balcony. The terrace was perfect for evening cocktails and watching the boats go by. Two dolphins even paid a visit to the bay. Plenty of sun loungers by the sea and such clear water for swimming. A truly memorable holiday... We're sure to be back.

Hotel Podstine

While small enough to make its guests feel at home, Hotel Podstine is also big enough to offer luxurious and personalized service to all its guests. Hotel Podstine location is remote enough to provide its guest with perfect blend of peace and quiet, while within walking distance from frenetic center of Hvar town.

Fabulous Stay

Reviewed By ab19572018

Just returned from 5 nights staying in Room 210 - what a fantastic view we had (Superior Twin Room with full seaview). Beautiful, quiet and peaceful setting. Friendly, professional staff. Great breakfast, on terrace overlooking the sea, listening to the birds and the waves. Lovely, coastal 15 minute walk into town (so easy to get a cab back in the evening if you wish). Can't recommend highly enough and hope we can return one day.
