Picolo recommends · Hotel in Dubrovnik, Croatia
Hotel Bellevue Dubrovnik
Step onto the balcony and there is nothing below you but cliff and open Adriatic, with a little cove of pebbles waiting at the bottom.
The building clings to the rock face, floor stacked on floor, so the rooms and balconies hang right above the water. Every room faces the sea, and on a clear evening you watch the sun drop behind the islands to the west.
At the foot of the cliff lies a small cove with a beach reserved for the hotel. Bellevue sits between the Old Town and Lapad, so you are out of the crowds but still only a few minutes from the walls by city bus.
Picolo’s verdict
Why we chose Hotel Bellevue Dubrovnik
It gives you two things that rarely come together in Dubrovnik: a sea view from every room and a beach of your own. For couples who want to swim every day and still see the city, it is a sensible middle ground.
You will not be walking into the Old Town for every meal. It takes a bus or a long stroll, so if you want to pop in and out of the walls several times a day, stay closer to the Pile Gate.
What you get
- Sea view from every room
- Hotel beach in the bay below
- Spa
- Swimming in a sheltered cove
- Short bus ride to the Old Town
