To be fair, this hotel has probably the best location in Dubrovnik. So close to the old city with spectacular views but not so close that it is noisy. We stayed in June when all the renovations were supposed to be finished. Instead, the whole spa area was closed and only one restaurant was open, which was overpriced. The famous... more

This property is so gorgeous. They are just finishing a total reconstruction. Everything about this hotel is first class. It's just a short walk (downhill) to Old Town in Dubrovnik. The staff were helpful, although falling over one another behind the desk at check-in. We ate lunch on the deck and the waitstaff were well trained and cordial. The Ceasar... more

Being there you will notice that there is a very small part which seems to be renovated (historic building). Most rooms and the suite we have seen are in the 70s-style block which seems not have undergone any renovation since its construction. The... more

the hotel was fantastic, the location, the wonderful Taverna restaurant built into the side of the hill with amazing views of the mediteranean and old town of Dubrovnik. Food was excellent. Hotel staff were exceptionally pleasant and helpful. This hotel is most definitely 5 star and I would highly recommend it to all. I could not fault this hotel. more

My husband and I have just returned from a 3 night stay in Dubrovnik, at the Hotel Excelsior. We were more than pleasantly surprised by the hotel. We had a superb room with a sea view and as it was my birthday during my stay, was delighted to accept a complimentary cake and birthday card in the room, one night... more
