Myself and a friend spent two nights in early September in Galeb. Similar to other hotels in the area, it is an old "grand hotel", not in its prime. BUT location, friendly staff, spacious rooms and relatively good price make it a very good choice, in my opinion. We had a cheaper room at the back, so no view. But... More

Booked in for onenight only.We had reserved ocean facing and asked to be upgraded to balcony if available, As it turned out we had 2 rooms side by side on the 4th (top) floor. Rooms were actually more like a suite with a large sitting area, an abundance of huge windows and a small outdoor terrace. Rooms were simply but... More

By all accounts, there is no shortage of upmarket hotels along (or at least near) Opatija's impressive waterfront.  But if there is one that balances the demands of the discriminating holiday maker, combining four star service without the astronomical price tag, then the Hotel Galeb must be it.   Located just across the street from Opatija's busy waterfront promenade, with...

Our room had a nice view of the bay. There was a small, secure paid parking lot. The lot was very tight and on a very steep... More

I stayed in this hotel twice with my family (kids are 10 and 12). We were very satisfied with the service and rooms quality. They have a wooden parquetry in rooms and the view from balcony is fantastic. During the weekends you will hear a lot of noise due to the central location of the hotel. Guests of Galeb have... More

Apart from an A1 location, all the front desk staff were fantastic. Whether it was assistance with car parking (front or rear of hotel) or suggestions on coastal towns to visit next, they were helpful, smiled & were genuine. A pleasure.

This hotel is on the main street in Opatija and is across the street from the beach (which is great for swimming). The rooms are really quite big and clean. The breakfast was nice, with a big variety of items. The hotel staff was helpful.

The main good thing about the Galeb is the location. Walk out the door and you are right in the center Opatija activities. It is not a large hotel. The small staff was very caring and helpful. While the rooms were a bit old-fashioned, there was nothing wrong with them and mine was very big. I suppose most other rooms... More

We drove from Venice and arrived late in Opatija to stay the night while on the way to Dubrovnik. Our first stop was Hotel Bristol to find the prices outrageous for a quick stopover. Our next on the list was Hotel Galeb. The host at Hotel Galeb was extremely helpful and we were able to park our car next to... More
