We’ve just come back from a stay at Hotel Bellevue in Dubrovnik and honestly, it exceeded all expectations. From the moment we arrived, everything just felt easy and welcoming. The staff were genuinely warm and attentive throughout, and the setting of the hotel is incredible – the views over the Adriatic are something else. We were there to celebrate my wife’s birthday, and the team really went out of their way to make it feel special. It was done in such a thoughtful, understated way, which suited us perfectly and meant a lot. A huge thank you to Ivana in Reservations for her help ahead of our stay – it really set the tone from the start. A special mention also to Josip and Stejpan on reception – both were brilliant from start to finish. Friendly, professional, and always happy to help with anything we needed. Our room was amazing, really spacious and comfortable with a stunning view. It actually made it very easy to just slow down and enjoy being there. Breakfast each morning was another highlight – a great selection, really high quality, and the perfect way to start the day with that view. What stood out most was just how consistent everything was. The hotel clearly takes a lot of pride in what it does, and it shows in all the small details. We left feeling like we’d had a proper break and made some great memories. Would absolutely recommend and would love to return one day.

Just returning from a four night stay iThis is a beautiful hotel overlooking the bay within walking distance of Dubrovnik old town. We had a balcony room with the most comfortable large bed and soft pillows.our room was big enough to relax in and had coffee and tea making facilities.A good mini bar too The rooms were cleaned everyday to a high standard and they even left chocolate. The staff were very friendly and attentive especially the bar staff and breakfast staff. Dario was very attentive and Petra was an excellent server and offered great advice on shopping. The service in this hotel is outstanding and they offer a personal touch. The food is outstanding with a huge variety on the breakfast menu. The pool and spa provided a nice place to relax and the staff were wonderful. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely retur.

“Very pleasant surprise”

Pros: So much nicer than the website photos. Very pleasantly surprised. Rooms are beautiful and very comfortable- I think they all face the ocean. Breakfast is lovely with great selections - could have sat all day on the terrace. Private little beach with deck (a little small) and beach chairs- very attentive staff. Easy walk downhill to town. I bought the Dubrovnik pass for one day which includes free bus pass- getting Ubers can be challenging in town so happily hopped onto the 4 bus which stopped steps away from the hotel (1st stop). Cons Very small safe. Can’t think of anything else at the moment.

“A Balanced Stay at Hotel Bellevue, Dubrovnik | Beauty, Warmth, and a Few Caveats”

Currently midway through a four-night stay at Hotel Bellevue, I feel well placed to offer a thoughtful and honest perspective for future travellers. Set around a 15 to 30 minute walk from Dubrovnik’s Old Town, the hotel strikes a welcome balance. It is close enough to access the historic centre with ease, yet far enough removed to enjoy genuine peace and quiet. After experiencing the intensity of the Old Town crowds, returning here feels like a retreat. Our experience began on a strong note thanks to Antonela in reservations, who arranged a seamless airport transfer. Our driver, Dahoo, a Dubrovnik native, was exceptional. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly proud of his city. That first impression set the tone. Service throughout the hotel has been consistently warm and genuine. Every member of staff we’ve encountered has been kind and accommodating, reflective of Croatian hospitality more broadly. The hotel itself is architecturally interesting, split across two connected buildings. The main building houses key amenities including beach access via lift, spa, gym, and some rooms, while the adjoining structure is linked by a separate glass lift, adding a slightly modern and almost cinematic touch to moving between spaces. We booked a Superior Room and received exactly that. While we had been advised ahead of our stay that we would have a VIP experience, in reality the stay has felt very much like a standard booking. There was no upgrade, which is of course never guaranteed, but it is worth noting for those who may be given similar expectations. The room itself is comfortable and in line with European standards, well appointed but not extraordinary. A highlight for my wife was the premium bathroom products, which are indeed from a high end brand. Housekeeping has been generally good, though not flawless. We did have to call for towels one day. This was quickly resolved, but worth noting for those expecting absolute precision. The balcony view is a standout feature, with dramatic cliffs and uninterrupted sea views during the day. However, a small but notable oversight is the lack of lighting on the balcony at night, which makes it unusable after sunset. This is something the hotel could easily improve. The spa facilities are pleasant, with a pool, jacuzzi, and loungers all benefiting from the same stunning coastal outlook. The sauna and steam room are located separately and are quite compact, comfortably fitting 2 to 4 people, though during our visit they were quiet enough to enjoy privately. The gym is a clear weak point. Opening at 8am, it does not cater to early risers, and the equipment is minimal. For serious fitness enthusiasts, this is not a suitable setup and should be factored into your decision. The beach area is beautiful but not private, despite what some listings may suggest. On sunny days, it attracts visitors beyond hotel guests, which can lead to a livelier and at times noisier atmosphere than expected. Families and groups of teenagers were present during our stay, so those seeking total tranquillity may prefer the hotel’s terrace instead. Speaking of the terrace, it is well designed with loungers and space to relax. However, visiting in April during the Easter period, there were no food or drink services available on the beach. Given the warm weather, this felt like a missed opportunity and is something the hotel should address, even with a limited seasonal offering. Where the hotel truly excels is its food and beverage experience. Breakfast is exceptional, varied, high quality, and catering to both healthy and indulgent preferences. The kitchen also deserves credit for flexibility. When I requested fries that were not on the menu, the staff happily accommodated. Cocktails are creative and beautifully crafted, although on the expensive side. Final Verdict: 4/5 Hotel Bellevue offers a refined and scenic stay with outstanding service and excellent food. However, there are a few operational gaps, particularly around expectations of a VIP experience, the gym, beach services, and minor room details, that prevent it from reaching a full five star experience. Trip Advice: • Ideal for couples or travellers seeking a quieter base near Dubrovnik’s Old Town • Do not rely on potential upgrades or VIP mentions, treat your booking as standard unless clearly confirmed • Not suited for serious gym users or those wanting a private beach experience • Consider seasonality, as some amenities like beach service may not be available in shoulder months • Request details about room features such as balcony lighting if that matters to your stay A beautiful hotel with genuine charm, just a few refinements away from being exceptional.
