Dubrovnik, Croatia
First Impressions Stepping into Apartments Sounds of Dubrovnik, you immediately get the sense that someone thought carefully about what travelers actually need here.
Stepping into Apartments Sounds of Dubrovnik, you immediately get the sense that someone thought carefully about what travelers actually need here. It’s a three-star property, sure, but the location alone makes it punch well above that rating. The building sits right inside the Old Town walls — not near them, not a short walk from them, but genuinely inside, on a quiet side street called Ivana Rabljanina that most tourists never even notice as they rush past toward the main drag.
Honestly, this is where the place really earns its reputation. Dubrovnik’s Old Town is one of those places where being five minutes closer to the Stradun actually matters — a lot. You’re rolling out of bed and already inside the medieval city, with the Adriatic light bouncing off the limestone streets before most day-trippers have even parked their buses. The location score sits at 9.5, and couples especially seem to love it — they rated it 9.4 for a two-person trip, which makes total sense. There’s something genuinely romantic about wandering back to your apartment at night through those narrow, lamp-lit alleys when the crowds have thinned out.
The setup here is apartment-style rather than a traditional hotel, which I think suits Dubrovnik perfectly. You get a bit more space, a bit more independence — you can grab fresh produce from a nearby market and actually use a kitchen, which is a small thing that makes a big difference on a longer stay. The rooms are clean and well-kept, nothing flashy, but thoughtfully done. It’s the kind of place where everything works and nothing feels like an afterthought.
There’s a specific kind of Dubrovnik experience that only happens when you’re actually sleeping inside the Old Town — and Apartments Sounds of Dubrovnik gives you that. Early mornings here are almost surreal. The city belongs to you for about an hour before the tour groups arrive, and you can walk the Stradun in near-silence, which feels like a genuine privilege in peak season. I mean, most visitors are staying out in Lapad or Babin Kuk and commuting in — you’re already there. That difference is hard to overstate.
The overall guest rating of 8.8 tells you something real — this isn’t a place people stumble into and feel indifferent about. It attracts travelers who did their research and wanted to be immersed in the city rather than just visiting it. The three-star classification keeps prices grounded, which is honestly refreshing in a city that can get expensive fast. If you’re planning a trip to Dubrovnik and you’re trying to decide between a polished resort on the outskirts or something smaller and more authentic right in the heart of things, this is the kind of property that quietly makes the decision for you.
Hotels in Dubrovnik place guests within the Old Town labyrinth, where limestone streets lead to secret stairway cafés and baroque churches.

Very communicative staff, earlier check in, easy key collection from the box. The accommodation is in a quiet and peaceful street, 5 min walk to the center on Stradun, 5 min through the walls is swimming in the sea. Important information about the accommodation and the city was sent in advance. Highly recommended.
What could be improved: I can't think of anything.
Great location Charming and comfortable apartment in a quiet area with all you will need
Great communication and helpful information from hosts
Spotlessly clean. Great location within the old town. Full of character. Lots of unexpected items including air conditioning, iron, dishwasher, tea towels, coffeemaker.
What could be improved: N/A
The location of the apartment was perfect for the Old town. It was in a quiet side street, but only a 2 minute walk to the main two streets.
The apartment was very clean, comfortable, spacious, and had everything we needed for the stay. Our hosts were very attentive and the self check in option was was useful due to our late arrival time (midnight)
The location was just perfect. You don’t need to come to the downtown everyday ( like many tourists visiting Dubrovnik do ) - you just wake up there and enjoy being in heart of Dubrovnik.
Lovely apartment with all the essentials. The location is amazing, in the centre but on a quiet street. Good communication and check in instructions from the host.
Host and Ivona were great and provided support asking all my questions. They kindly sent me the power bank I missed in the apartment.
What could be improved: -
Very nice host and co-host who contacted me before my arrival. Very clear advice and guidance on check in. Coffee in the kitchen! Good facilities in the room which is right in the center of the old town, near the big stairs.
What could be improved: Be prepared for the steep steps in the old town and stairs to the top floor.
The directions to find the apartment were really clear and detailed (a series of photos with arrows showing where to go) which is essential when you are going to your accommodation for the first time. The apartment has a lovely local, Dubrovnik feel rather than a sterile, modern apartment vibe. The through ventilation is really good so you don't need the air-conditioning at all. Although the property has no outside space of its own, it is really easy just to go and sit in the street with a glass of wine and watch the world go by. The area is very quiet, other than classical music drifting in sometimes from the near-by music school, which really adds to the ambiance.
What could be improved: This is not a dislike, but older travellers with heavy luggage should be warned that there are lots of steps to climb to get to the property.
Great location but everything was quiet. The apartment has everything you need and the hosts communication is excellent. Provided detailed steps in how to get there. Great having facilities to cook or wash clothes if needed. Would come again!
What could be improved: My only tiny comment was the bed, although large want that confidante comfortable (for us too hard) and sqeeks when anyone moves :)
