Excellent hotel with great staff, comfortable and safe.
Location is great for getting to the Croatian Ferry systems. Quiet location not far from the Old Town, convenient via taxi or car. There is a bus but we did not use it. The breakfast service was great, excellent staff and service.
It was a very hot evening and the pool was only open until 8 or 9 pm so it was not available to cool off after a hot night in Old Town.

Our stay at the hotel was wonderful! The staff, in particular, was exceptional – they helped us with everything we needed. We had to leave at 5 a.m., and since we would miss breakfast, they kindly prepared coffee, sandwiches, yogurts, and more for us to take on the road (thank you very much!). Everyone was extremely polite and made us feel very comfortable. The location was good, especially if you enjoy walking a bit. It was a little pricey for our standards, but it was worth it.
One small thing is that it would have been nice if the minibar in the room had been stocked. 🙂 It would also be nice if guests could order food to their room, without having to go outside the hotel.

Great staff, nice room, lovely pool area. Breakfast was nice, breakfast staff very kind. They have a luggage room, and we were allowed to relax by the pool after check out to wait for the ferry. Many restaurants and shops nearby, ferry and bus terminal a few minutes away.

Lovely hotel, amazing staff, good location
The hotel is located very close to the main bus station (there is a shuttle from the airport to the station that runs about 45 minutes after every flight), and also near to the bus stop to the old town (Pile). There are good restaurants nearby if you don't fancy a bus trip into town. The hotel itself is very clean, has good facilities, and the staff are amazing. So friendly, super helpful, and just generally a pleasure to meet. The pool area is nicely situated to get both sun and shade, and although it's not a huge area, it's rarely full of people. The water is perfect in the summer, and there is an honesty refreshment area poolside. Breakfast is super tasty, with a good range of foods for any palate, including vegetarian options.
My only issue (and it really wasn't a huge thing) was that there is a tourism tax price on drinks that isn't clear upon ordering/using the honesty tab. Something to be aware of.

Ideal stop for holidaying in Dubrovnik particularly if you will be island hopping as you are 3-5 minutes away from the T
Super friendly staff - every one of them, a great location near Gruz harbour - perfect if you intend travelling to Korcula, Mljet or Split etc., from Dubrovnik and clean and comfortable throughout.
Bar closed early and requires more snacks poolside.

Great hotel, with delicious breakfest and comfortable beds.
Beds were very comfortable. The room was very clean, breakfast was delicious, and the staff was super friendly. Having parking available was great, given that it is pretty hard to find a parking spot in Dubrovnik.
AC was hard to control, I actually don't think it was possible to contoll it from the room, we had to call the reception to adjust it for us.

Great hotel for an early morning ferry
We stayed at the hotel due its proximity to the port. It’s a 5 minute walk down to the port (we had an early morning Jadrolinija ferry and were only stopping in Dubrovnik for a night). The staff were excellent, especially with the children. Hotel was very comfortable. Had a nice wander around the harbour in the day, swim in the pool late afternoon and then was only a 5 minute cab into the old town in the evening. Overall very happy for what we needed.
All good

Wonderful stay.
The receptionist Elma is so so friendly, kind and helpful. Breakfast is excellent and I like the location. It is quieter than Dubrovnik but near the coach and bus station. But the 1a and 1b bus is so convenient for Dubrovnik.
The mattress was a bit soft for my liking.

Comfortable, clean, friendly hotel in great location
Incredibly friendly staff, great location in Gruz near bus station, restaurants, and port and a short bus ride to Old Town. The room was very comfortable and clean and breakfast was very good. We enjoyed the balcony.
Not enough outlets next to bed to charge devices.

Dubrovnik great 36 hrs
The location close to the harbour but with easy transport links to the historical centre. Our last evening was spent dining at a restaurant of the hotel’s recommendation overlooking the marina. The staff were so lovely and helpful.
Not the most comfortable sun loungers and I would say staying at the front of the hotel is a little noisy with traffic.

Convenient hotel with excellent breakfast and no stairs to climb.
The buffet breakfast and the breakfast staff were both superb. It was a short walk to the bus station and the ferry terminal. The Red History Museum is just around the corner, and is worth visiting.

Excellent hotel a bit out of the way from Old City
Wonderful small hotel with welcoming staff and garage parking. We booked room on top floor with small balcony with view of sea. Excellent buffet breakfast with cheerful and warm Anja to take care of you and bring excellent cappucino! Room was spotlessly clean with very nice bathroom. All in all a perfect stay for our 1 night. Recommend Porat restaurant short walk away for excellent dinner featuring seafood
Only comment would be some fresh fruit at breakfast would have been nice. Also note while buses to Old City are easily accessible, we like to walk which we did (40 minutes). In addition, hotel is right behind Gruz Port which isn’t the greatest neighborhood for nice surroundings. But fine for 1 night and perfectly safe area.

Good hotel to stay at
The location of the hotel was perfect for our needs, close to the ferry port and bus station. Bus to Old Town departs from very close to the hotel. Breakfast was good and staff very friendly and helpful. We had a great view of the harbor from the room.
Minibar fridge was somewhat noisy at night. No other issues

Enjoyable stay and perfect for trips into Dubrovnik, rooms were good size, well maintained and clean
The breakfast and all staff we met were amazing, hotel was clean and the rooms were very good with a reasonably large balcony
It was close to the harbour but the property wasn’t much to look at, there was no outside space or gardens and being in a built up area there wasn’t much of a view. Swimming Pool was closed.

Excellent, modern hotel near Gruz (bus station/ferry port area of Dubrovnik)
The Berkeley is a modern, business-style hotel which, because of its scale, feels like it’s family-run. Its location is perfect if you have a bus or boat to catch because it’s about a 5 minute walk away from the ferry port and bus station. Hotel staff are extremely helpful and welcoming, breakfast is delicious, the beds are big and comfortable. Highly recommended.

A wonderful stay with exceptional service, stylish comfort, and a perfect location near the Old Town
Everything was great! The hotel is quite close to the Old Town—just a 5-minute taxi ride. The room was spacious, cozy, and beautifully designed. Most importantly, the staff were incredibly helpful, especially Yan at the reception. He went above and beyond to assist us with the room, parking, and transportation, and also gave us great recommendations for places to visit and restaurants to try. He even managed to get us a last-minute reservation at a fancy restaurant in the Old Town that was about to close. It was truly a pleasure. Highly recommended!
