On a budget, weigh it — Hotel Excelsior isn't cheap for what it is.
Luxury — €€€€ / night
A grand, history-laden hotel on the waterfront just east of Ploče Gate, with full-on Old Town and Lovrijenac views, a spa and seaside terraces. Polished and a touch old-school, with one of the best walls-and-sea panoramas in the city.
