Great location close to the gates so taking bags was not hard. Excellent, friendly staff and super accommodating. They got me into my room early and provided a boxed breakfast because I was leaving before there were staff onsite. Also, if you are leaving property early in the AM there is plenty of traffic with others leaving the old city for tours or flights. I wasn’t alone walking the streets at 6:30am!

Room was clean, acceptable, and in an excellent location for touring old Dubrovnik. So why the bad review? You are paying full price for a hotel with minimum staffing. If you arrive after 3 pm you may have to ask several times before someone from the nearby restaurant leads you to a closed door in the wall with the name on the door itself, no other signage. Then you have to enter the room combination on the electronic lock and if you get the timing right after a couple tries, let yourself in, pick up your envelope with keys and find your room. This for almost $300 per night. In addition, the air conditioning was not working and the noise from the restaurant if you left the windows was not good for sleeping either. They worked on AC next day but still not great and I wouldn't touch the controls for fear of shutting it off.

Great hotel location! Staff was great to communicate with especially since our flights kept changing due to strikes in AMSTERDAM. Breakfast was delicious and the luggage storage was a nice feature.

The hotel far exceeded our expectations; the room was larger than the photos seemed to show, and better in any way: the modern, stylish decor, comfortable bed, large bathroom, more towels than I’ve ever had in a hotel. The cleanliness was absolute, the breakfast offered many options and included expresso (our choice) coffee. The staff could not do more for us, from the friendly receptionists who texted me when the room was ready and responded immediately, gave local and down to earth advice for sightseeing, to the clearly highly trained waiter who waited us at breakfast. And it is a few steps from the Pile Gate, where all taxis and other means of transportation will stop. As locations go, it is in the Old Town, meaning that all attractions and dining are just outside the hotel door. We would not be staying anywhere else when returning to that magnificent place.

A lovely room in a well kept hotel in the Old Town, with some exceptionally helpful staff who were able to assist with excursions. Very close to the Pile Gate so a majority of the sights are within a short walk with numerous restaurants, bars and small takeaways giving lots if variety.

Pros and cons

Great location right by the gate to old city Room was very small but clean. The bathroom smelled like sewage initially. The air conditioning did not work very well and the room was stuffy. No on-site staff, but they were very friendly when we did deal with them.

The hotel is right inside the Pile gate and down the first street (alley). It has been remodeled and is very modern. The staff was in touch with me before we left the US. The breakfast was excellent. The only issue was that there is no elevator. Lots of stairs to get to our 4th floor room. It was loud all night if we had the windows open. We had to close them to sleep.
