75 hotel reviews for Argosy Hotel
We felt comfortable and would in the argosy book this hotel again. Particularly attractive is the proximity to the old town of Dubrovnik (about 15 minutes by bus). The bus goes every ten to 15 minutes until after midnight. A ride cost ten kuna (about a, 30 Euro). Nearby bays (rocky) are available. The water was very clean and clear. At the Hotel President (very nearby), there is more surface, in part. Cemented. However, it is also very crowded. The pool area at the argosy is rather small. We didn't used. The rooms are different. Some have a ... Read more

The hotel has its best days already behind itself, and it is in dire need of a major renovation. Cleanliness in some areas (for example, bathroom) borderline.

We have the seven days of our honeymoon enjoyed. For the cleanliness is it a smooth 1 +. On the day of arrival we had a very nice room filled. For a three star hotel we have got more than enough breakfast and dinner and taste. Only the dessert corner was something weak-. Staff friendly, thank you to Ivana-guest relation to our room and nice lady. Unfortunately it is no bathing shoes in the room. six kilometer from the old town Dubrovnik. Transport links perfect, everything was five minutes a bus runs until late in the night center.
