    Everything was great. Because we were there off season we got an upgrade on our rooms. The room we were in was one of the best ones I've been to. So much space, with two bathrooms and also a balcony and amazing sea view. The breakfast was also really good with good quality food. You could also order Eggs Benedict without having to pay extra. The location is really nice as well, between pine trees and seafront. The staff were all very polite and friendly and ready to help. The city is also very near, either with car or with the public bus. All in all great stay and I would recommend!

    Prices at the restaurants at the hotel and resort were a bit high compared to prices at the area itself. If you walk away from the resort you can find few restaurants nearby that have lower prices and food is still good or even a bit better because those restaurants are local and not owned by any chains

    Hotel was fantastic! I travelled off season, so there was no crowds and I was able to get good sunbed spots everytime of the day and good table at breakfast. Room was absolutely stunning, big and comfy bed and room itself was big and clean and decoration was great. And even though I didn't reserve a room with a ocean view I still got partial ocean view from balcony which was great bonus. Staff were helpful and I got to use all of the hotel amenities after checking out since my flight left in evening. Dubrovnik old town is easy to acces by bus from hotel. Hotel is located in beautiful area, and most of my time I just spent strolling around and sunbathing and eating. If you are looking for easy holiday, sunbathing and good quality hotel, then this is it. But if you are looking for more activities and city life and nightclubs and bars, choose some other hotel. All in all, great excperience and I would go again!

    Not all staff were up to the job, but the majority of them were wonderful...

    I stayed in the neighbouring hotel, the Royal Princess. It was an upgrade to Ariston as I got a whole residence for myself. I loved the view, breakfast was great, loved the size of the room(s). Very clean and great housekeeping. Facilities were really great. Nice parking garage. Insanely good value off season, and the best time to visit Dubrovnik! I recommend!!!

    We had a scheduled flight and couldn't stay longer.

    Everything you need is at your fingertips from restaurants, swimming options, many areas to relax, great staff, secure parking, gymnasium, sauna and many more facilities. We could be here for months and not need to leave the complex. A great facility to enjoy at your own pace.

    Low season (November) meant not very many guests and some facilities were locked down (out side pool, some restaurants etc. This was communicated in advance so I was prepared. The area with the close by beaches was somewhat dead due to low season. More active areas in 15 min walking distance.

    Excellent 5 star hotel with all advantages you can expect. Due to low season the price was very low. Room with the view over the Adriatic Sea was spectacular. Breakfast was good with a lot of choices. Good well equipped SPA with indoor pool area

    Hotel has a privat beach and it would be nice if it was an easier enter to the sea.

    The room with the sea view was excellent. Clean, cosy with a big bed and a balcony. My stay included a breakfast and if you want to stay at Royal Hotel don't miss breakfast, they offer so much.

    Good variety for breakfast, but small plates instead of a platter of fresh salmon? At this level we are usually served a pot of coffee and tea at the table on arrival. Sadly the scrambled eggs were overcooked, stiff, and cold, so opted for fresh eggs scrambled at the omelette counter. Loved the secluded areas amongst the rocky enclave to sunbathe and the amazing sunsets from our balcony😊

    Breakfast had a good choice but fruit juices were not fresh but rather artificial tasting . Coffee machines were very busy . It would have been better to have your coffee served to the tables.

    Beautiful location overlooking the sea and islands. The most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept on. Very clean and well maintained
