The property on first impression is wow. However when you drop to other floors same can’t be said. Dark dreary poorly light corridors and a bad state of repair. The beach is extremely poor heavily soiled mattress, heavy duty machinery operating when trying have early morning sunbathe. We even had someone unfortunately come in and bin raid for plastic bottles. The beach is open to everyone not private. We spent our time at the pool which was much better standard but does need some attention. The room itself is clean but had some issues dents in walls, ripped wall paper. One positive was the staff in the restaurant they were friendly and attentive and the food variety was to good standard. I wouldn’t rate this as five star. The hotel needs a consistent standard throughout the property to achieve 5 stars.

President hotel very nice, beautiful views, very helpful staff, nice large rooms, close to small markets and restaurants, beach and pool access. Easy bus. Uber, Taxi access. 3 opportunities for improvement: a) convert a portion of the beach to sand vs small rocks, b) heat the outdoor pool, c) add an ice machine for hotel guests on each floor.

I would love to have been able to give the hotel 5* as there were so many great things about it. The location must be the best in Dubrovnik - wonderful sunset views across the sea; the premium rooms are fantastic - large rooms with big comfortable beds; lovely bathroom and shower / bath. But the issue we had is that when we booked through Expedia, we specifically chose a hotel with a double and a twin room. We contacted the hotel immediately after booking to reserve a twin room, only to be told that it would be allocated on arrival at the hotel and there was no guarantee. On arrival the reception staff stated that there were no twin rooms available (“the hotel is very popular”). Our two adult children would need to share a bed which was not acceptable to us, and had we known this we would’ve chosen an alternative hotel. After stating that we were not happy the receptionist managed to find a twin room which was four floors below where we were, which in itself wasn’t an issue. However, the room was a lot smaller than the room we had booked, was right next to the gym and underneath the restaurant so it was very noisy with chairs scraping and people bouncing on running machines. When we raised this with the hotel staff they told us that it was an equivalent standard to the room that we had booked, although there was no comparison to the double room. The staff member seemed unwilling to help and this really spoiled our holiday.

Hallways are dated and need maintenance but the rest of the hotel was excellent. I think the hallways to the room need to be well kept as the lobby and other common areas. Everything else was excellent! Second time here and would come back.

Lovely but some tweaks to the service are needed.

Lovely hotel with great facilities but service misses on a few fronts. Self service buffet breakfast is fine with lots of choice but for some reason coffee had to be requested and, while you self served tea, there was no milk provided without asking, then waiting to see if they remembered to bring it or not (it cannot be a surprise that Brits like milk in their tea surely!) No tap water option at dinner- it’s €7 for a bottle of water…

Beautiful resort with gorgeous views and clam scenic water. Food options were a bit pricey but delicious. Also the resort never scheduled our airport transport which made the start to our honeymoon a bit rocky, but they made up for it with a room upgrade and dinner voucher. Overall we had a great time and I would recommend it to anyone visiting Croatia. If you’re looking for a more quiet and peaceful experience. If you’re looking for a party environment I would stay closer to old town.
