You can stroll along Dubrovnik Ferry Port for relaxing water views when you're in Gruz. If you carry on walking you'll get to Gruz Harbor, Lapad Beach, and Bellevue Beach for some more water views.
Whether you want to collect beach glass or watch the sunset, Lapad Beach is a spot you might want to check out, located 1.3 mi (2.1 km) from central Dubrovnik. If you want to continue walking by the waves, head to Copacabana Beach located nearby.
If a restful vacation is part of your travel plans, Banje Beach might be the perfect place to seek out during your trip to Ploce. Amble around the area's waterfront or experience its art scene.
"Clean Room: but you need to ask for a refill in the bar, like tea.
Our room air conditioning did not work, so we just open the door in the balcony. I didn’t like staff going to our room without informing us apart from room make up.
Corridor carpet very clean and not smelly.
The lobby scent was so lovely!!!!
Buffet: we have the half board which was an excellent decision I made…food was delicious and lots of choices, menu is different everyday.
Although outside the hotel have lots of restaurants.
Buggy service daily going up and down the hotel was fantastic! It’s like riding on a roller coaster for some drivers:)
Staff:Excellent service and friendly. Special mention to certain staffs: Rockey, Ross,Ruel, Michael, John for going and beyond.
Balcony:Thank you for giving us the balcony room overlooking the sunset.
Amazing view
Outdoor pool: it was closed
Indoor pool: heated pool was great.
Spa-didn’t go.
Location: Perfect. very close to the airport and 5 mins walk to bus station.
Very accessible to Dubrovnik sea transportation as well.
4 star hotel rating.But So so beautiful sea views.
I definitely would recommend this hotel. I will definitely come back, hopefully with my kids.

"Large corporate like hotel with lots of amenities. Great location outside of old town Dubrovnik. 20 minute walk to town or a quick 5 minute taxi Nice large room and balcony with spectacular views of the bay. Excellent breakfast buffet and great service. "
"This was the first hotel I have stayed at on vacation where I did not want to leave the hotel. Usually a hotel is a place to sleep and shower for me. The design of the hotel is beautiful. The restaurants and bar were incredible. We had a super-romantic dinner with a table right on the water and live music. You can sunbathe and jump in the Adriatic from the beach deck. The service was incredible. Knowledgeable and friendly front desk staff and attentive room service. I cannot say enough about Hotel Excelsior"
"If there is a 6 star to give to this facility,I would gladly rate it as a six star. We love this place with its beautiful view overlooking the sea and the rest of the nature around us. This place is so clean and the staffs are so friendly. We will recommend this place to our friends and loved ones. Thank you Everyone for making our stay a memorable one."
"Love this hotel its closest enough to old town where you can hop on a bus right out front for 1.75 euro and be there in 5 minutes but far enough away where you have privacy. The swimming area in the adriatic is fantastic and so is the spa. Also love the breakfast its so good and the views from the hotel are amazing not to mention the sunset. The rooms are really nice, spacious clean and have every amentity. Would highly reccomend staying here"
"Hôtel très bien situé pour visiter Dubrovnik, à environ 10 minutes en autobus dans aller dans le Old Town, vous pourrez également vous balader dans les quartiers Babin Kuk, Lapad et Cruz . Si vous pouvez prendre le forfait déjeuner, il est simplement fabuleux "
"The room was spacious and clean with a wonderful view of the sea. The staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was in a lovely quiet area just a 20 minute bus ride to the old town. There were also plenty of outdoor pool options, although the weather prevented us trying them all.
The breakfast buffet was not so great. Although there was a good selection of food on offer, the hot options were actually cold. The buffet area was also not big enough to accomodate the amount of guests, especially around the breakfast cereal, milk and tea and coffee machines.
Overall though, my friend and I had a wonderful stay."
