very nice hotel,best holiday ever with all my family,all new with amazing food.

Went there on a business trip. Very nice welcome at the front desk, the hotel is spacious, modern looking. It's obviously a well kept hotel, but it misses a slightly warmer touch of the entire facility to get nearer to a supreme category. The rooms are big enough, with nice decor/working desk/bed, all rather appropriately designed. The bathrooms are cozy and nice, well kept and clean. Beds are fine and comfy.
If possible, ask for a room with the sea view as high as possible, since the view from the balcony is fabulous, with a lighthouse and nearby Elafiti islands in view. The breakfast buffet was not spectacular, but there was everything to choose from. We didn't eat other meals at the hotel, since there are so many great restaurants both in the hotel area and the old town. The hotel is positioned in Lapad, the area of Dubrovnik some 10 minutes by bus to the old town. The beach is right in front of it, which makes it a great place to stay during the swimming season (May-October).
Should you desire a glass of wine at night, ask the front desk instead of taking one from the room bar - it's much cheaper.
The hotel has its WiFi internet link covering the rooms, which is quite useful for biz people!

stayed first week in Nov - sunny, dry and low 20's temps most days

general

fantastic view from main building 6th floor seaview room (7th is top floor)
main blding “Park view” rooms ok if sea view not poss, hotel has no buildings close to it.
public areas refurbed well in recent years – italian operating co. influence on décor shows
all staff encountered were very helpful
2 mins walk from medium size supermarket, ATM, some restaurants and bus stop into town
Wifi worked in lobby, restaurant & room balcony, but not inside room
breakfast: fully buffet style, in big sunny restrnt room – did not feel like canteen – ok hot & cold food variety
plenty of parking spaces
outdoor pool – big, saltwater
Indoor pool – big, saltwater – partly heated in Nov – nicely designed pool area
hotel’s own taverna for meals is not obvious at first – it’s in front of & one level down from the outdoor pool – has terrace and indoors seats
seems to have many coach parties (quiet ones) from various countries staying 1 or 2 nights, which I think influences bedroom features

Room

Clothes storage: only two (small) draws, low bench for cases instead
shower: has all over jets option (difficult to use) - normal overhead shower ok
rest of bathroom good standard & kept clean
no tea/coffee tray or kettle - hotel had it's own bar/cafe
pay film channels: not working
no welcome info pack
tv: good picture, but no instructions on use or channels list
tv channels: only 3 eng language channels (BBC World, CNN & NKK)
main Croatian channels have some U.S./U.K. series with subtitles & original dialogue ( enjoyed CSI without Channl 5's usual multiple ad breaks, but not sure what Croatians make of Gavin & Stacey !! )
electric power: only one mains socket available in room
mains electric adapters: standard euro adapter did not work – local one was £2 from bookshop in old city main street (Stradun)
aircon: fan worked, but could not change temp from warm preset – had to sleep with balcony doors open (ok in Nov but no fun in mid winter !)
twin beds: comfortable, but no gap between them and no room to widen the gap
minibar fridge: not full, enough free space for two a small water bottles and a 1 ltre carton of OJ.

We stayed in this hotel at the end of October 2011. It has a lovely spacious dining room and is located in a beautiful area near the sea. Pebble beaches and rocky coastline, lovely walks, mild climate - sea warm enough to swim in, good bus service and nearby bank and supermarket all made our holiday very pleasant. Croatia is a wonderful place to visit.Our guide on the coach trips (Toni Japuncic) spoke excellent english and was very interesting.
