Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“Reopened in May 2017 after an extensive renovation, the iconic 104-year-old Excelsior has 158 rooms and suites, all redesigned with king beds, soft color tones and light oak floors. A new restaurant, Sensus, serves elevated Croatian and Continental fare, with an emphasis on seafood. What hasn’t changed: the stunning views of Old Town.”

Shortlisted in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Dubrovnik, Croatia.

Telegraph review:

“A historic five-star hotel, with fantastic views of Dubrovnik’s medieval walls rising from the sea. It has 158 contemporary rooms, a stone-paved bathing area, a spa with an indoor pool, three restaurants (including romantic waterside tables at Prora) and a snazzy lounge-bar.”

Excellent Vacation

Hotel was amazing, best views. Location was perfect. Very close to old town and lots of restaurants. Transportation was available using uber or other apps, or by letting front desk know you needed a taxi.

Fantastic hotel with great service in an awesome location

Awesome Location. Super hotel, service. Great with the direct access to the ocean for a swim, nice spa and not at least the short 7-8 mins walk into Dubrovnik Old town. We also loved the view from the terrace and breakfast area over the ocean and to the town.

Would be great, with an 'easier' access into the ocean for everyone to get comfortable. That part is not so kids friendly.

Beautiful hotel. One of the best we’ve stayed in.

The hotel was so well positioned near the old Town whilst also being on the shoreline. We stayed in a Villa Odak room. Very elegant, very clean, very big. We loved it!!

If there was one thing we didn’t like it was just that at mealtimes (breakfast really) we had to keep out curtains closed as guests who were eating at the edge of the restaurant terrace were just outside our room - a handshake away! Thought some of the communal areas seemed quiet and a little soulless.

Amazing Hotel - Beautifully Appointed with Attentive Staff

The whole hotel was amazing! Our room was upgraded and it was incredible! Beautiful ocean view and rooms had everything. The ocean area with sun beds was the perfect area to unwind. Every single staff member was great.

That we had to leave!

Great location , friendly people.

A perfect location, just 500 metres walk to the wall city of Dubrovnik. The staff were very pleasant and helpful, breakfast was more than adequate.

The stale smell of cigarettes in our room, no amount of air freshener would clear it.

Excellent 3 night stay in lovely modern stylish hotel, just a short stroll from beautiful Dubrovnik.

Perfect view of Dubrovnik Easy walk to Old Town [10mins] Breakfast was every choice and more. No extra charges for cooked menu. Very friendly staff, and everyone spoke perfect English

No complaints at all, if I was looking for a tiny mistake there was no soap in the dispenser by the sink!

Great stay but a few points could be improved

Housekeeping could be better especially the turn down service. Gym should be called a “gym” - it’s pathetic for this kind of hotel

Fabulous

Best location in Dubrovnik, right on the Sea and 3 min walk to the beach and old city, the indoor & ourdoor pool was great, the breakfast was excellent, the only negative was the Pool service, the guys were slow and as the day went on, the pool area was littered with papers, food, empty cups etc.

Pool service was Poor, the staff didint clean the area during the day.

Stunning hotel in a perfect location.

Stunning location - minutes walk from Old Town. The views are insane. Beautiful rooms and facilities. Staff were extremely accommodating and helpful.

Could do with more waiting staff at beach level. Took a while to order a drink or lunch.

Totally relaxing in understated luxury.

Exceptionally good staff, attentive, friendly, helpful. Good choice of restaurants. Lots of water access, terraces and never felt crowded. Easy walk into the city, but quiet at the same time.

Would come back anytime!

Definitely one of the best hotel experience I ever had in Dubrovnik, we have been to multiple 5* hotels in Dubrovnik even from the same hotel group. But Excelsior is on another level with their staff and cleanliness. Location is more than great.

Electric vehicle charger would be great in the future, especially for that high price hotel.

We loved staying at this hotel. Ideal location and great facilities. The staff were so lovely and very good with children. The breakfast choices were great too- lots of variety.

The only improvement would be an outdoor pool more suitable for little kids. The indoor pool was great but quite hot and stuffy inside.

Loved it.

Amenities, comfort of rooms, choice of restaurants and bars. Location to old town. Staff service

The only thing I didn’t like. Even though I was a solo traveler, I was travelling with my brother and his wife. They were upgraded to a terrace room and I was not.
