Throne of Dubrovnik Apartment 2

Hotel Description

You know what struck me first about this place? The address actually means something here – 11 Ulica od Puča puts you smack in the middle of the action, and I mean that in the best possible way. This isn’t one of those “centrally located” situations where you’re still huffing it for twenty minutes to get anywhere good. You’re literally on one of the main arteries running through Old Town, which means you can stumble out your door and be at Rector’s Palace in about two minutes, or wander down to the harbor walls without breaking a sweat.

The apartment itself is what I’d call “perfectly adequate luxury” – it’s got that 3-star rating but honestly performs way above its weight class (that 9.8 rating isn’t just people being nice). The space feels authentically Dubrovnik without being themed to death, if that makes sense. Stone walls that actually belong there, not fake medieval nonsense. The windows open onto the street, and yeah, you’ll hear people walking by – especially during summer when the cruise ship crowds are doing their thing – but there’s something oddly comforting about the gentle buzz of tourists discovering the city below. It quiets down beautifully after about 10 PM when the day-trippers head back to their ships.

What really won me over was the practical stuff that nobody talks about in those glossy hotel descriptions. The shower pressure is actually decent (minor miracle in Old Town), the wifi works throughout the space, and – this is huge – you can actually get food delivered here without the driver getting lost in the maze of narrow streets. The apartment sits right where delivery guys know to find you, which saved my bacon more than once after long days exploring the city walls. Storage space is better than you’d expect too, though I mean, you’re not exactly coming to Dubrovnik to hang out in your room anyway. The real magic happens when you step outside and realize you’re a three-minute walk from Onofrio’s Fountain, five minutes from the cable car if you want those Instagram sunset shots, and close enough to the Pile Gate that you can easily duck back for a midday break without it feeling like a major expedition. It’s one of those rare spots where the location actually lives up to the hype – you’re not just “near” the good stuff, you’re genuinely in the heart of it all.

  Perfect location, good communication with Mili, everything you needed plus complimentary extras. Couldn't fault. Will be back.

• Gaston from Serbia – 3 January 2025 (10/10)

  This property’s location was amazing !! Directly in the centre of old town but away from main foot traffic and noise. 1st floor apartment with only a few steps to access front door . Beautiful , spacious living room. the bathroom was immaculate and spacious too. Apartment faces out onto picturesque old town street with church view but without bells ringing in the early hours ! There’s excellent aircon and heating . The complimentary beverages were a surprising and generous gesture from the host . We loved our stay and would definitely book again on return to Dubrovnik .

  What could be improved: Everything is excellent

• Kim from United Kingdom – 1 October 2024 (9/10)

  Great location and not too noisy. Very central to shops, bars and the famous wall. Plus 5 mins walk to Pile Gate, where the taxi rank is located and any organized coach trips. Best bit for me was there were no steps to tackle from where we were dropped off at Pile Gate to the apartment. There were just a few inside the building going up to the apartment, which was great.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing everything you need is available and Mili is a fantastic host, who is available at anytime and answers messages very quickly. So very helpful and provided us with a map and restaurant recommendations.

• Adam from Ireland – 23 August 2024 (10/10)

  It’s a fantastic clean spacious quiet apartment
  
  What could be improved: It’s exceptionally expensive for what it is, but that’s what you pay in the old town. It seems for anything of this quality.

• Aimin from United Kingdom – 20 August 2024 (10/10)

  This apartment is exceptional. It's really clean and spaceful. It's also very close to the beach, restaurants and shops. The host is really helpful and prepared a lots of drinks in the fridge.
  
  What could be improved: No washing machine and not enough space for cooking.

• Michael from United Kingdom – 12 August 2024 (10/10)

  Wonderful apartment right in the heart of the old town, but still very quiet and peaceful. Mili is a fantastic host and filled the fridge with beer and wine and was always on hand to answer any queries or provide restaurant recommendations. Highly recommended.
