Hotel Description

Nestled in the heart of Dubrovnik’s historic Old Town, the elegant four-star Scalini Palace offers a perfect blend of classical charm and modern luxury. Located on Boškovićeva ulica 3, this distinguished establishment sits within the iconic medieval walls that have earned Dubrovnik its UNESCO World Heritage status. With an impressive guest rating of 8.8, Scalini Palace has established itself as one of the most highly regarded accommodations in the Pearl of the Adriatic. The hotel’s privileged position places guests just steps away from Dubrovnik’s main attraction, Stradun (the limestone-paved main street), as well as the magnificent Rector’s Palace, the ornate St. Blaise Church, and the city’s breathtaking harbor. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee while watching the Old Town come to life or returning from a day of exploration, Scalini Palace’s central location ensures you remain connected to the pulse of this magnificent coastal city.

The architecture of Scalini Palace harmoniously blends with the Renaissance and Baroque buildings that have made Dubrovnik famous throughout the world. Behind its historic façade, the hotel offers meticulously appointed rooms where traditional Dalmatian elements meet contemporary comforts. The 8.8 rating reflects the exceptional guest experience cultivated by the attentive staff, who pride themselves on providing personalized service that honors Croatian hospitality traditions. From your window, glimpse the distinctive terracotta rooftops that have become synonymous with Dubrovnik’s skyline, especially striking at sunset when they glow with warm Mediterranean light. After exploring the narrow, winding streets of the Old Town, Scalini Palace serves as a tranquil haven where you can retreat from the bustle of the city. Its proximity to the azure waters of the Adriatic Sea means guests can easily venture to nearby beaches, take a boat to the verdant island of Lokrum visible from the shore, or walk along the famous city walls for panoramic views that have captivated visitors for centuries.

What truly distinguishes Scalini Palace is its ability to immerse guests in the authentic Dubrovnik experience while providing all the amenities expected of a four-star establishment. Morning breakfasts can be savored with views of the ancient city awakening, setting the stage for days filled with discovery. The hotel serves as an ideal base for culinary adventurers eager to sample Croatian delicacies in the numerous surrounding restaurants, history enthusiasts tracing the Republic of Ragusa’s fascinating past, or culture seekers attending performances during the renowned Dubrovnik Summer Festival. As day transitions to evening and the limestone streets begin to glow under ambient lighting, return to Scalini Palace to reflect on your Dubrovnik experiences in an atmosphere of refined comfort. With its stellar 8.8 rating testifying to consistent guest satisfaction, distinguished four-star amenities, and unparalleled location in one of Europe’s most preserved medieval cities, Scalini Palace offers not just accommodation, but a doorway into the living history and timeless beauty of Croatia’s most famous coastal gem.

Reviews

  • John from United States – 14 May 2025 (9/10)

    Delicious breakfast delivered to our room. It was great that they held our bags after check out. Great location in Dubrovnik's Old Town.

  • Julianne from Australia – 28 April 2025 (9/10)

    Perfect location in the heart of the Old town.

    What could be improved: A few stairs to climb but dont be discouraged by this as is.

  • Mazelle from United States – 28 April 2025 (9/10)

    Couldn’t get a better location or view, breakfast was sensational.

  • Heidi from Finland – 18 April 2025 (9/10)

    The accommodation was in a truly excellent location, right in the heart of the old town and close to the central square. The room and bathroom felt freshly renovated and were very stylish. Breakfast could be chosen from four different menu options and was delivered to the room at the agreed time. It was excellent every morning. Our room also had a small kitchen that was well-equipped with dishes and utensils.

    What could be improved: We enjoyed our stay, but the soundproofing could have been better. Our room faced the street on the first floor, and directly across from us—literally, as the alley was only about one and a half meters wide—was a nightclub with loud music pounding until 2 a.m. In addition, all the sounds from inside the hotel carried very clearly into our room.

  • Christine from United States – 17 April 2025 (9/10)

    Clean, updated, exquisite location, professional and friendly manager/host.

    What could be improved: Highly highly recommend. I just wish I could have stayed longer.

  • Molly from United States – 16 April 2025 (8/10)

    We had a quick two day visit in Dubrovnik. Scalini Place was central in old town, and very easy to get to and from. The room was clean, and good sized. Breakfast was delicious!

  • Martin from Ireland – 14 April 2025 (9/10)

    Breakfast was fabulous and delivered on time to our room.
    Location was excellent in centre of Old Town adjacent to all restaurants.

    What could be improved: Only issue was noise from adjacent pub but hotel had no control over that

  • Roberts from United Kingdom – 7 April 2025 (9/10)

    Liked everything and breakfast was really good

  • Kenny from Singapore – 18 March 2025 (9/10)

    Superb location, extremely helpful hosts, comfortable room.

    What could be improved: A little noisy at night (especially Friday evening) due to proximity to night life. Could hear music and people talking loudly till 2:00 am.

  • Julie from United States – 10 March 2025 (9/10)

    The cleanliness was great. The location was incredible. It was quiet.

    What could be improved: It's a little difficult to take a shower with warm water that lasts the time I needed to shampoo and condition my hair, but regardless, the hotel was great! I'd definitely stay there again. Loved it!
