Excelsior Hotel, Dubrovnik, Croatia - Reviews and Hotel Information

The Excelsior Hotel is one of the more expensive hotels in Dubrovnik, but felt that it was worth it. It is one of the nicer hotels that we have stayed at in Europe, at least a 4* in quality. Our room was large with nice furniture and an excellent bathroom. It also had a small patio with a great view of Dubrovnik. The Excelsior has a number of excellent amenities, including an indoor pool, valet parking (in a protected lot), and a nice patio restaurant/bar with a great view of Dubrovnik. Many rooms have patios with waterfront views. Most important, the Excelsior has location, location, location! It is a five minute walk from the Ploce Gate, the main entrance to the old historic section of Dubrovnik.

One thing that is awkward about the Excelsior is its layout. It is on a steep hillside and was built in a couple of stages, so you tend to take a lot of elevators and hallways to get from one place to another within the hotel. Also, because it is built into a hillside, rooms away from the sea have no views (ask for a seaside room). Finally, it does not have its own beach, but there is one 100 yards down the road. However, these quirks were managable, and were more than offset by the hotel's positives, the most significant of which was its close proximity (about 200 meters) to the Ploce Gate, the main entrance into the old section of Dubrovnik.
