Everything.... OUTSTANDING location with 4 swimming pools, amazing spa, food and bar service were excellent. Being on the promenade made for excellent walking g for other foods, drinks, shopping, Gelato, and the Cave bar. Could NOT have been any better. Amazing sunset views. If I come back again, I will definitely stay there again!!

Actually, there is nothing major to complain about – just a few points I would like to mention. The housekeeping service was a bit inconvenient at times. On the first day, I asked for about 10 more minutes as I was still in the bathroom. When the staff returned shortly after, they started cleaning while I was still inside, which felt a little uncomfortable. At one point, an ashtray was placed next to the sink on my towel, which was not ideal. On the following morning, despite mentioning that we needed a few more minutes as we were about to leave, housekeeping entered again to check the minibar. This felt somewhat intrusive. The breakfast buffet was good overall; however, some items such as scrambled eggs or pancakes were already gone around 9:15 am and not immediately replenished, even though breakfast is served until 10:30 am. This led to some waiting times. Dinner was a bit disappointing, as some of the food was only lukewarm and the selection seemed limited at times. On the positive side, the sauna was excellent and the view from the balcony was absolutely stunning. Overall, I would consider staying here again, but probably without half board.

The location was excellent. Beautiful views from f water and rocks and pramande.
Felon there where some areas for improvement with cleanliness such as the indoor pool Ana sauna areas the steak sauna smelled bad so could use better cleaning and maybe a scent of some sort there like mint.

Hotel & sea views are beautiful! The location is convenient for visiting most areas of Dubrovnik. The walking path directly from the hotel along the water to other areas is so nice!

Hotel location, sea view, very clean
This is not the 5 star hotel definitely: Elevators are shaking, AC in the room not working at all, and the breakfast was awful (coffee machines bad, poor selection of food, etc.). Maybe all this was due to off-the-season month reservation, but we were dissapointed with our stay.

The view was superb and the facilities were very generous and modern. The lobby was also very impressive. We dined at Zoe restaurant one night and the food and service were great. We also enjoyed the promenade that ran along the hotel all the way to town. It was very well lit during the night as well. Overall, I'd love to come back during the summer and fully take advantage of the beaches.

Breakfast was excellent. Room was good but the bathtub in the bathroom was quite tall so getting in and out of the tub was not easy.
Bathtub in the bathroom was terrible....accident waiting to happen.

Wonderful clean hotel - one of the finest hotels I have ever stayed in - I retired after 42 years in the hotel business. We ate dinner 4 nights at 3 different restaurants and had great meals The breakfast had more items than I have ever seen - and this is our 7th trip to Europe from the Us
Finding a menu for a restaurant was very hard - why don’t the put them in the room Wish they rented binoculars No shop to purchase razors or facial tissue etc

Well built large building with good view. Comfy bedding and a large room.
Receptionists need to take a good customer service class. very unpleasant. Too many stairs to get to the elevator. Hard with luggages.

Location, nice amenities, pleasant staff
Room needed some renovation. Noticeable damage to the baseboards and wood chipped on bathroom door. Noticeable stains on desk chair. Only one bottle of complimentary water on our first day. Had to walk almost a mile to the nearest store to get water.

Location. Sea side.
Every day I had to go to the reception and change the room key cards because they stopped working. The staff promised a late check-out, but then refused and were unhappy that we checked out at 12 instead of 11. The evening and night staff cannot make any decisions, extend rooms, etc. When it rained, they did not provide an umbrella. The breakfast is poor. The juice is from a carton, not fresh, and there is no decent coffee.
