Of all the five-star hotels in Dubrovnik, the newly renovated Hotel Dubrovnik Palace has it all: a luxurious wellness and spa centre, high-tech conference rooms, superb gastronomy and spectacular sea views from every room. Situated on the beautiful peninsula of Lapad, the hotel’s dramatic cliffside location, below the aromatic, pine-covered Petka woods, affords spectacular views in every direction. From afar, the hotel resembles a huge ship, and we have made every effort to ensure that it blends harmoniously with its surrounds, with carefully selected wood and natural stone accents. Ornate tapestries hang either side of the reception area, two of many modern artworks by local and national Croatian artists that line the walls of the hotel. Just a short distance from Dubrovnik Old Town, each of the recently fully renovated 308 contemporary rooms and suites all have private balconies and beautiful sea views. Great food and excellent service prevail. During your stay, you will be tempted to try out everything that is on offer: four swimming pools, one of which is indoors, a private beach, tennis courts, fabulous snorkelling and a PADI diving centre, as well as a leafy jogging path and walking routes through the woods behind the hotel. The Hotel Dubrovnik Palace was also the proud holder for two consecutive years of two World Travel Awards: Croatia’s Leading Hotel (2005/2006) and Croatia’s Leading Spa Resort (2005-2007, 2011 /2012). Whether you’re looking for rest and relaxation in understated luxury, sports and activities or a motivating environment for your business event, this five-star resort in Dubrovnik is worthy of all the awards that have been bestowed upon it. Bordered on one side by the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea and on the other by a dense pine forest, with panoramic views of the Elaphite islands, dining at the Hotel Dubrovnik Palace is as much about location as it is about great food and wine. By day, soak up the sun at Beach Restaurant Ponta, which serves delicious salads, snacks and freshly prepared pizzas on the water’s edge. By night, start the evening with a perfectly chilled aperitif at the relaxed Maslina Tavern, where the views alone will encourage you to linger for a cocktail or two. Order something from the Maslina menu – where fish is the speciality – or head to Elafiti, our main restaurant, which is open for breakfast and buffet dinner (reservations required), for a Mediterranean-themed meal. After, enjoy a glass of Croatian wine or sip a rakija , the national brandy, available in cherry, walnut, rose, pomegranate and carob flavours, at the Sunset Lounge. Or head outside to Lanterna Glorijet, our popular poolside bar. Our award-winning spa resort in Dubrovnik is home to the Energy Clinic spa specialists, where a luxurious sanctuary and complete relaxation are guaranteed. On the 10th floor of the hotel, our team of highly trained therapists offer you a wide range of health and beauty treatments. Work out with the latest state-of-the-art equipment in our Fitness Room, relax in our indoor pool, with serene views of the cobalt blue Adriatic Sea, and rejuvenate in our Steam room and Finnish sauna.
