The Best Hotel in Dubrovnik, Southern Dalmatia

Background Illustration for Hotels

There are a plethora of excellent hotel choices all around Dubrovnik. The Old Town offers the chance to sleep in historical quarters, with charming restored palaces and apartments right in the center of the action. The more exclusive establishments line the coastal road east of the center, offering five-star luxury, private beaches, and stunning views of the Old Town. You'll find more modern (and slightly cheaper) hotels in Lapad, which has a summer resort vibe with live music by night, a busy bar-lined promenade, and a recently renovated beach. The port area of Gruž makes a practical and affordable base. There are also private rooms and apartments scattered around the city, which vary in quality and price. If you visit in the off-season, you can find bargain deals at the best addresses in town, sometimes down to a quarter of the price of the high season—yet another reason to consider a winter visit to Dubrovnik.

Van Bloemen Apartments

$ | Bandureva 1, Dubrovnik, 20000, Croatia Fodor's Choice

These eclectic apartments are the best budget choice in the Old Town, just steps away from the Cathedral and the Old Port, with high ceilings, well-stocked kitchenettes, colorful furniture, and books and relics collected from all around the world. They will transport you back to old Dubrovnik, 1960s London, or wherever else the brilliant Marc Van Bloemen and his family feel like taking you with their fascinating stories. The apartments make a comfortable and affordable base to self-cater and explore the Old Town for a few days, and it doesn't hurt that the excellent Gianni café is right downstairs. Try to request Apartment #1 for stunning views of the city walls.
