The hype
Guests are obsessed with the views and the free breakfast spread, but often mention the decor feels a bit 'corporate' for a beach resort.
Dubrovnik Palace
$200-550/ noche
Reserva esto si You want the drama of the Adriatic Sea directly under your balcony without the crushing crowds of the Old Town.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Every single room has a sea view and balcony (no 'garden view' lottery)
- Direct access to the sea via rocky platforms and ladders
- The terminus of Bus No. 4 is right outside, making Old Town access a breeze
Resumen rápido: It’s a massive, brutalist concrete ship built into a cliff that feels slightly 2005 inside, but the sunset views are absolutely bulletproof.
Reseñado por @jennifermhasbun: I stayed in this suite for a romantic getaway and the sea views blew me away. We spent every evening watching the sunset from our balcony before hitting the private jacuzzi. It was the perfect mix of luxury and relaxation.
Lo que dijeron los huéspedes que se hospedaron aquí
Reality check
The connecting doors between rooms are paper-thin; if your neighbor coughs, you'll hear it.
- You prioritize an unobstructed ocean horizon over historic charm
- You are a confident swimmer who loves jumping into deep blue water
- You have a rental car (parking is free, a rarity in Dubrovnik)
Limpieza y Mantenimiento
9.2
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable and thorough; evening turndown service is a nice touch in higher-tier rooms.
- Bathroom hygiene: Immaculate. Grout is white, glass is streak-free. No signs of the dreaded 'seaside mold'.
- Maintenance: Generally excellent, though some hallway carpets show wear from wet feet and suitcases.
- Linens & towels: Crisp, high-thread-count white linens. Pool towels are plentiful and fluffy.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of fresh sea air and expensive sanitizer; no mustiness in rooms.

Qué llevar

Usually yes, and it's a massive buffet with an egg station, sparkling wine, and terrace seating.
Consejos de Insiders
- ✨
Skip the hotel lunch and walk 10 minutes along the coast to 'Cave Bar More' for a drink inside a natural cave.
- ✨
The 'VIP Wing' has its own separate entrance and is significantly quieter.
- ✨
Buy bus tickets at the hotel newsstand or kiosk, it's cheaper than buying from the driver.
