Best Luxury Hotels in Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik—a city with a storied past, natural beauty, and cultural depth—welcomes visitors with its well-preserved medieval architecture, dramatic coastal views, and vibrant local life. Often referred to as the “Pearl of the Adriatic,” this UNESCO World Heritage Site enchants with its ancient city walls, baroque buildings, and limestone streets that shine under the sun, inviting exploration and admiration in equal measure. But beyond Dubrovnik’s scenic setting, lies a rich history, from its time as a formidable maritime republic to its role in modern cinematic lore which visitors can immerse themselves in through organised tours or independent exploration – meander through its narrow lanes, ascend the storied walls, or relax in its inviting cafes. Dubrovnik is also a great base from which to take day trips to discover some beautiful, lesser-known, islands that sit along the shores of the sparkling Adriatic Sea. Visit Dubrovnik where medieval history and Mediterranean vibes perfectly collide.
