Beautiful Nest Rooms

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest with you – Beautiful Nest Rooms isn’t going to win any design awards, but there’s something refreshingly straightforward about this place that actually works in its favor. Tucked away on Ulica Bruna Bušića in Ploče, you’re basically in this residential neighborhood that most tourists never see, which means you get to experience Dubrovnik like you’re actually living there for a few days instead of just passing through with a camera. The building itself is pretty typical for this part of town – nothing fancy, but solid and clean, with that slightly worn-in feel that says “people actually stay here regularly.” When I first walked up, I was sort of expecting something more polished given the name, but honestly? Sometimes the unpretentious spots turn out to be the most comfortable.

What really works about this place is the location – you’re close enough to walk into the old town (maybe 15-20 minutes if you don’t mind the hills), but far enough away that you’re not dealing with the cruise ship crowds every time you step outside. The Ploče area has this great mix of local cafes and small shops, and you know what I really appreciated? You can actually find parking around here, which anyone who’s driven in Dubrovnik will tell you is basically a miracle. The rooms themselves are… well, they’re exactly what you’d expect from a solid 3-star place. Nothing that’ll blow your mind, but everything works, the beds are comfortable enough, and the bathrooms are clean with decent water pressure. I mean, after spending the day wandering around those ancient stone streets, you mostly just want somewhere quiet to crash anyway.

The staff runs a pretty relaxed operation – check-in was quick, no fuss, and they seem to know the area well enough to give you actual useful directions (not just “go toward the old town”). One thing I noticed is that this place tends to attract people who are staying for more than just a quick weekend, which creates this nice, unhurried atmosphere. You’re not constantly hearing rolling suitcases in the hallway at all hours. The 7.4 rating makes sense to me – it’s not perfect, but it does what it promises without any major surprises or disappointments. If you’re the type of traveler who values being in a real neighborhood over having a concierge, and you don’t need a rooftop pool or marble everything, Beautiful Nest Rooms delivers exactly what it should. Plus, there’s something to be said for staying somewhere that feels more like a temporary home than a tourist pit stop.

Reviews

• The beautiful view is the biggest plus, the rest is standard low price. – Wojciech from Poland – 17 June 2025 (7/10)

  Hosting without problems, everything was taken care of remotely. The room was clean, a bit old, but clean. At this price it's ok. The room can be treated as a place to sleep to visit Dunrownik cheaply. The room lacks major amenities, there is everything that should be in an average standard and at an average price. The view is beautiful and this is the biggest advantage of this location.

• The view is amazing – Visnja from Croatia – 4 May 2025 (8/10)

  Excellent view! Looking at old city from the balcony!
  
  What could be improved: The furniture a bit old, but who cares with a view like that!

• Nice holiday but very expensive! – Dan from Romania – 16 August 2022 (7/10)

  We didn't had breakfast. It was only one suite room (actually it was two rooms with bathroom outside the rooms, locked with key, only for our rooms). Wasn't pleasured because our child stayed into one separate room, but was OK. We had one small fridge, conditioner air, one big balcony for our two rooms, 3 chairs on balcony, 3 towels /person, 2 small plates, forks, knife, towels, one wardrobe with many hangers. The furniture weren't new, but are ok for a good accommodation. To get the key it is not so difficult if you follow the instruction of the company which are in charge for the accommodation.
  Big plus and thanks for Ivana from Direct-Booker for her help for all the time, starting before our arrival, than after our landing, to the end when we left the rooms.
  
  What could be improved: The rooms should be into the same apartment, not separate. The most unpleased was the bathroom which was outside the rooms, is need it to get out from the rooms into the small lobby to go to bathroom. Also, will be nice to change the furniture.
  The apartment it is situated on the heal, we had to go up and down about 350 stairs every day to arrive at the Beach Banjie and to the old town.

• Romantic simple bedroom in place like a dream – Susana from Spain – 2 August 2022 (8/10)

  The best thing was the quiet area, beautiful views from the small terrace.
  
  Small fridge and coffee maker to prepare simple breakfast
  
  What could be improved: The balcony was very small, anyway it was beatiful

• Pleasant – Rachel from United Kingdom – 5 May 2025 (6/10)

  Great location close to the old town around 10-15 mins walk. Lovely sea view. Comfy bed. Some tea/coffee facilities provided.
  
  What could be improved: Bit misleading as to which room you book as our room didn’t include a table and chairs and the full view as pictured. Towels were very old and uncomfortable to dry yourself with they could do with buying some new ones. Also only give us fresh towels as we were leaving. No where to dry your towels either could do with some hooks on the wall. Furniture is also run down and smells a bit in the room.

• Beauty demands sacrifice – Ana from Portugal – 18 October 2022 (7/10)

  The view is great and the place is close to a really nice beach.
  The room is pretty big and the balcony, even if really small, has a nice view over the island in front, same for the outside space.
  There's a fridge and some utensils that might be useful for breakfast.
  
  What could be improved: The fact that I've asked from the beginning if we could leave the luggage after check out and the owner ignored my request until the last day, when it was finnally said that it wouldn't be possible to do it.
  The fact that it takes a very long walk on a steep climb to get there.
  The fact that rooms on the side where mine was don't have access to the full view that includes the city of Dubrovnik.

• Exceptional – Michelle from United Kingdom – 5 October 2024 (10/10)

  It was a lovely place and amazing view it was easy to get to the city. The room was nice and clean, and they even let me stay longer and didn't changer me for it. It was a my lovely place. Michelle xx

• Superb – Cristian from Poland – 17 August 2024 (9/10)

  Location was great, 15 min from beach and old town. Have air conditioner and balcony that was perfect and incredible views of the city and sea.
  
  What could be improved: All good, toilet is private but outside of the room, but for us was ok.

• Superb – Emma from New Zealand – 15 October 2023 (9/10)

  Nice and clean. Self check in. Did see owners around during our stay and they were all lovely. Small balcony included with room, okay to stand on but no seating etc. Lovely view!
  Location was great, close to the old town and beaches only a short walk

• Room 1 does not have a view of the town, room in poor condition – Baumann from United Kingdom – 3 July 2024 (3/10)

  Staff onsite were friendly. Room was clean just very run down.
  
  What could be improved: The photos of this room on the booking.com site are completely misleading of this room.
  
  The balcony is only large enough to fit a single chair on and is facing the wrong way to the old town, so only had a very restricted view of the sea and Otok Lokrum island.
  
  The room is quite run down and requires some work, the fridge was making a constant noise and the bed was extremely creeky/noisy any time you moved.
  
  We were booked for 3 nights, but decided to leave in the morning after one night and stayed somewhere much nicer with an amazing view of the city just up the road from this property.
  
  When we left the property, we notified the property manager (Direct booker), and spoke to a member of their staff on the phone, but still haven't heard back. Although they did send us a message 4 days later asking for a review.
  
  If you're looking for a romantic getaway with a view I wouldn't recommend Nest Room 1.
