Hotel Bevanda

Had dinner at the restaurent Bevanda. Made pre reservation. Got seated on time. Excellent views of the bay. Ordered basil gnocchi pasta. So soft and delicious. Had glass of red wine. Good service. Good dessert - had Lava cake with icecream. Slight obstruction of view on one side due to temporary construction. Recommended.

Stunning hotel and location. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Breakfast is first class, and we had a delicious evening meal there 😊

I am writing to express my concern and disappointment regarding the recent dining experience at the hotel restaurant. After having a meal at the restaurant, I began experiencing severe food intoxication symptoms, including nausea, stomach cramps, and vomiting. This was incredibly distressing, especially since it occurred shortly after finishing my meal. While I understand that these situations can sometimes be unavoidable, it is crucial that the restaurant adheres to high standards of food safety and hygiene to ensure guest wellbeing. I would like to urge you to investigate this incident thoroughly and review the quality and handling of the ingredients used. The overall ambiance and service were pleasant, but unfortunately, the food safety issue significantly impacted my stay. I hope you take this feedback seriously and make necessary improvements so that future guests don’t have a similar experience.

I live in Zagreb but I am from Belgium and I must say that I am quite critical about hotels and restaurants especially if they are quite expensive. I must say that if it's about the hotel part or the restaurant, I really don't have nothing to say !!! All the simple details are there and really in the end this all place is really not expansive compared to what you get... Really just an amazing place !!!

I had high hopes for this restaurant with its beautiful terrace and sea view, but my experience was incredibly disappointing. The waitress we encountered was rude and unhelpful. When we asked if we could order a pizza, she snapped that she was too busy and she didn't know when we could come back to eat. Even though the terrace was not full at all, half of the seats were empty and no people inside in a restaurant, didn’t understand it. In fact, she rudely suggested we might as well not come at all since she had 'too much work' to deal with. What surprised us even more was the contrast with another waiter, who politely informed us that they start preparing food at 1 PM and that we could already place our orders. If you can't handle working with people, why become a waitress and ruin the experience at a nice place? At the end the rude waitress asked for tips, she explicitly pointed that we have to leave a tip for her(as soon as she brought the bill). I’ve attached the photo of the waitress who was extremely rude. Wanted to point we were the only foreigners that place(low season), we felt like we are not welcomed there at all. As for the food and drinks. Dont order cappuccino there, quite low quality. But pizza was really good for that i am giving 1 star. But all in all after treating us this way we will never come back and would not recommend to anyone. No matter which nationality you are you always have to be treated with respect.

My wife and I just had our first racist experience in Croatia after living here for three years and visiting hundreds of restaurants and bars. As a white man, I was directed by the waiter to use the nice, upscale restroom inside the hotel, while just two minutes later, the same waiter sent my wife, who is Black, to a substandard, outdoor toilet that was not up to the standards of a place like Bevanda. The bar was empty, and it was clear the waiter was making a discriminatory decision about who deserved to use which restroom. This behavior was not only racist but extremely rude.

I'm rating ONLY RESTAURANT part of the service. View, location, interior design of the place is absolutely great! Service was also OK. For vegans and vegetarians almost NO options (one main meal and some side dishes). Having in mind that this is one of the best restaurants in this part of Croatia, it is shame that they don't offer more such options. I was shocked a bit, having in mind their renome and prices. In the end, chef came out with some "special" dish... which was pasta with truffles.

I really enjoyed my stay here, the view is amazing, the room was very comfortable and the bathtub with the access to the balcony is fantastic, so private, so bright and a real treat. Everything in this hotel is discreet, the volume of the background music is just right, the AC in the room is super quiet, the bedlinen is of superior quality. You will find everything you need in the room including a personal welcome note from the hotel manager. A perfect place for a romantic getaway or for a single person to explore beautiful Opatija. I hope to come back.
