Rixos Premium Dubrovnik

Perched on the ocean front, the Ricoh offered luxury and comfort within walking distance of many landmarks and amenities. Excellent breakfast and comfortable rooms. The pool is just above the sea and there were rough seas during our visit so the deck area was regularly showered with waves which included pebbles which wasn’t ideal but couldn’t be helped.

Fantastic stay, Spa has been the best experience so far. The staff all gave us exceptional customer service ( e.g Mehmet Ali, Anil, Serene, Sachin, Sujaya, Ravinder ( Restaurant) Antonio (reception), the lady in blue Jacket at the reception and many more who we cannot remember their names. they all made my husband birthday special & great experience at Rixon. Thank you everyone!!

We would like to commend a couple of staff members who were outstanding: INOS from breakfast service, very kind and warm professional young lady from Argentina. Made us feel very special with care she showed and remembered us and our orders everyday despite the crowded service time. Thanks so much!! ANDREAS from spa gave us alot of time explaining different treatments that were on offer. Even though we didn't take up any treatments she continued to treat us warmly and with a beautiful smile each day we met. Thanks so much!@

Europcar at Dubrovnik airport in Croatia. I rented a car at Dubrovnik airport from Europcar and of course drove to Dubrovnik. The agency did not inform me that there is an area above the old city of Dubrovnik where a parking lot is, that you are not allowed to drive in. I did so to get to the parking lot. Months later I got a 2,000.00 US dollar fine for this. Europcar gets a copy of the every fine every rental car gets, as the car is rented from them. They see thousands and thousands of dollars of fines come through, so they are complicit in making sure Croatia gets money for fines, as most people are going to go direct from the airport to Dubrovnik. Europcar does not inform you of this area to protect you from the fines in the area. As I do not know Croatian I was not aware of this. I emailed them after and asked them to tell all of their customers. They emailed back that this is not their job and they will not do it. KNOW FOR YOURSELF TO ASK ABOUT THE AREA NOT TO DRIVE IN-From another agency, not Europcar. Save yourself. I have pages of emails from them blaming the drivers (renters who paid for their cars) while not telling them how to avoid the fine.

Situated about 1k from the old town getting to the sights is simple with a gentle downhill stroll or local busses available, the bus transport is free with the Dubrovnik pass. The hotel is very well kept we had a superior sea view room with a large balcony that got the morning sun and was well sheltered from any wind. The A/C was efficient and quiet and the large bed super comfy. The shower had the biggest head I had ever seen and had plenty of water pressure to give you a good soak. All the staff spoke excellent English and were very friendly and always happy to help. A large breakfast buffet had a wide variety food to suit all nationalities although I do need to ask for milk for my cereal. Drinks prices were not outrageous considering this is a 5 star hotel, similar to a good wine bar in the UK, €10 for a house while and €12.5 for a house red both excellent wines. The free pool tables provided some evening amusement and the piano player in the lobby bar set a lovely mood. All in all great value for money.
