Best Places to Stay in Dubrovnik

Accommodation in Dubrovnik is quite special, due to UNESCO's protection of the walled city. It's prohibited to build hotels, so most accommodations on offer are private houses that also function as hotels and apartments.

Without a doubt, the best area to stay in Dubrovnik is inside the walled city. It doesn't matter in which historic zone in Dubrovnik you're staying, you'll only ever be around 10 minutes from the city gates. Be aware that prices inside the walled city are much higher than those outside the walls, especially during peak season.

A cheaper option is Ploce. This is a nearby residential area outside the city walls, where you'll find cheaper hotels and apartments. There are also buses that go directly to Dubrovnik's historic centre.

A bit further away is Lapad, a spot full of hotels and beaches. Here, you'll find a whole range of accommodation. The beach is also just a stone's throw away.
