First Impressions

Walking up to B&B Sesame Inn, you’ll immediately notice how it fits perfectly into Dubrovnik’s historic charm without trying too hard. The building sits quietly on Don Frana Bulića street, and honestly, that’s part of what makes it special — you’re staying somewhere that feels authentically Croatian rather than touristy. The entrance is understated but welcoming, and you can tell right away that this three-star property focuses on getting the essentials absolutely right. Every detail reflects a commitment to authentic hospitality.

Location That Actually Matters

Here’s what I love about the location — you’re in what locals consider the best part of Dubrovnik, which explains that impressive 9.7 location score. You can walk to the Old Town walls in about ten minutes, but you’re far enough away that you won’t be dealing with cruise ship crowds right outside your door. The street itself is residential and peaceful, which means you’ll actually get some sleep at night. Couples consistently rate this spot 9.8 out of 10, and after spending time here, the appeal becomes immediately clear. The neighborhood strikes an ideal balance between accessibility and tranquility.

The Rooms and Comfort

The rooms at B&B Sesame Inn strike that perfect balance between cozy and functional. They’re not huge — this is Europe, after all — but everything you need is there and thoughtfully arranged. The beds are genuinely comfortable (not just “decent for the price”), and the bathrooms are modern without feeling sterile. What really impressed me was the attention to small details — good lighting for reading, enough outlets for your devices, and windows that actually open to let in that Mediterranean breeze. The design philosophy prioritizes guest comfort above all else.

The Breakfast Experience

You know what sets this place apart? The breakfast actually feels personal rather than institutional. It’s served in a small dining area where you might end up chatting with other guests about their Dubrovnik plans. The spread includes local specialties alongside the standard continental options, and the coffee — well, let’s just say it’s strong enough to fuel a full day of exploring the city walls. The hosts clearly put thought into sourcing quality ingredients, which you don’t always find at three-star properties. This attention to detail extends to every aspect of the morning meal.

Why Guests Love It

That 8.8 rating isn’t just numbers — it reflects how B&B Sesame Inn delivers on what travelers actually want from a Dubrovnik stay. You’re getting genuine Croatian hospitality without the premium prices of the Old Town hotels, plus a location that puts you close to everything that matters. The hosts know the city inside and out, so you’ll get restaurant recommendations that locals would approve of, not just tourist traps. It’s the kind of place where you feel like you’re staying with knowledgeable friends rather than just checking into another hotel room. The overall experience reflects a deep understanding of what makes a memorable stay.

Great location, clean and host was lovely.

What could be improved: Bathroom was down the hall, didn't have to share it but still an inconvenience. Restaurant bit noise next door but was generally finished by 10.

Andre United States

Very comfortable and clean. The owner is very kind and helpful.

Jeff United Kingdom

Good value, old style/unpretentious charm, quiet and comfortable. Spacious and airy.
Our bathroom was along the hall, but that wasn't an issue.
Lovely couple who owned/managed the rooms. Very clean.
Little tricky to find, small plaque on the door.

What could be improved: No dislikes.
Would be better to say the hotel is behind the Sesame restaurant for folks who aren't great with maps.

I had a lovely stay at the Sesame Inn. Room was very clean and had everything I needed, like air conditiong, a mini fridge, good quality pillows and a comfy bed. The location was excellent, close to the old town but still quiet and peaceful. The owner was very friendly and always upon seeing me made sure I was okay and if I needed anything.

I loved staying at the Sesame Inn, the location was perfect - less than 10 minutes to the main Old Town and to a lovely swimming spot! It was easy to navigate to/from the bus stop and didn’t require any major staircases (making it accessible). The neighborhood also felt very safe as a solo traveler. I also loved the private patio connected to the room - perfect to enjoy a morning coffee. The host was also very kind and welcoming - he provided me with an extra set of keys before check-out so that I could store my bags after checking out which was much appreciated!

What could be improved: The shower was on the smaller side, although it wasn’t much of an issue for me.

Little family run business, Misko was very kind and friendly.
I had my own outside little patio which was lovely. The room was comfortable and big enough for one person.
The location was perfect, just a few minutes walk from Pile gate, however away from the crowds. Would stay again!

I stayed in a large room with two twin beds.

The host was very nice. Be sure to have euros in cash to cover the hotel taxes.
The beds were comfortable. I had a wonderful stay. The bathroom was at the end of the hall but private for only our use. The bathroom had a shower and was great.

I absolutely recommend this as a delightful place to stay with a nice owner and such a comfortable stay. I hope to someday come back

What could be improved: Nothing bad just one very small drawback is the doors make a lot of noise as you open and shut them. The doors are older and have many layers of paint that stick together and make a lot of noise. I would recommend a white noise maker for the hallway plus new doors that don’t creak so bad. I felt like I was waking everyone up as I came and went

Very simple place, perfect location, 2 min from Pile Gate, easy access to beaches but still perfectly quiet. Very comfortable, great bed and shower. The pateo is absolutely delightful, I took breakfast there every day. Big hug to the couple that owe the place, they are lovely.

What could be improved: Daily cleaning would be appreciated at least for taking off trash and changing towels.

What could be improved: The property is abit old hence the floor kinda squeaky, as well as the sound proof.
