Surrounded by ancient gardens of Mediterranean vegetation, the hotel enjoys a magnificent and quiet location on the coast of the Lapad peninsula, overlooking the port of Gruž. The beach is just a few meters away and the picturesque old town of Dubrovnik, is only 30 minutes away by bus. The airport is 45 minutes away by car. It combines old-world charm with contemporary interior design, creating a unique atmosphere of timeless elegance. The rooms are luxuriously decorated and equipped with convenient amenities for a pleasant stay. The hotel offers other excellent services and facilities, such as an outdoor pool, pool bar, lobby bar and a conference room. The gourmet restaurant will delight the most demanding palates. Without a doubt, the perfect place for a romantic getaway.
Nice location between old town and lapad, which is beautiful. Nice cold pool. Ample seating, no morning rush.
Breakfast included in our stay - plenty of choice, could be hotter on a couple of occasions.
The family really enjoyed their stay at the hotel.
We felt the rooms, although not large, were perfectly fine. They were immaculately clean and we were happy with the experience.
The food was fab. We have stayed in places with a bigger range of food but we all felt it was a high quality food and range, it changed every night and it was cooked really well.
One thing here, we felt that the labelling around if the food was vegetarian or fish (with no meat) needed to be clearer.
Another, there was not water for the free table at dinner. This is generally a given in my travels.
The pool wasn’t the biggest and there were limited beds but we didn’t have a problem finding somewhere. We loved the area that was slightly set aside from the pool.
It was well placed to travel to The Old Town and walk to Sunset Beach.
We would say that the price of drinks were in our opinion very high. It was not just the hotel. It was the price of drinks everywhere. And if you go on holiday here, be aware.
We stayed here seven nights in August. It is well located - once you find the alley up to the strip there are lots of places to explore and it is on the bus route down to the Old Town. A walk there is possible, but not in August. The hotel is clean and well maintained and the room comfortable if a little neat on storage. Buffet breakfast and dinner was fine rather than exceptional, so we didn’t feel we were missing out occasionally going out for dinner. The pool area is small and fills up rapidly. The pool itself is also fairly small and shallow. The pool bar and restaurant is close to deserted in the evenings we were there. The evening entertainment was functional more than fun. Staff were efficient more than friendly, but all pleasant enough. In summary a great city centre hotel and base for exploring but perhaps not a resort to enjoy long sunny days at.
Hmmmm….Im actually shocked by most of these reviews. This is our third hotel in Croatia this week and it’s been really disappointing. The AC never got below 25, the room was hard to get to, the bed was probably the worst I’ve found in a hotel in 10 years, and the furniture was all very old and outta date. Truthfully, just grateful we’re only here one night, cause I’m not sure I could do another.
My partner and I had the pleasure of staying at the wonderful Hotel Lapad from 26 July to 3 August, and I can honestly say that it surpassed all of our expectations.
The hotel is situated in a truly stunning location, directly opposite the harbour and port where cruise liners dock, providing beautiful views and a lovely atmosphere. It is also an excellent base for exploring the area, with opportunities to charter a private yacht for an exclusive excursion or simply join one of the many organised group tours available nearby.
What really made our stay special was the outstanding staff. Every member of the team we encountered was friendly, professional, polite, and incredibly helpful. Nothing ever seemed too much trouble, and their genuine warmth contributed greatly to the overall experience.
The food was excellent throughout our stay. Breakfast offered an abundance of choice each morning, catering for all tastes, while the evening buffet was equally impressive on the occasions we chose to dine at the hotel. The quality, variety, and presentation of the food were consistently superb.
Our room was exactly as expected and was maintained to a very high standard. It was cleaned daily and kept immaculate throughout our stay, which was greatly appreciated.
The pool and courtyard areas were another highlight. There was always plenty of space to relax, and we never struggled to find a sunbed. Clean towels were provided daily, and it was wonderful to be able to enjoy a refreshing drink or a spot of lunch while unwinding in such pleasant surroundings.
Getting into Dubrovnik's beautiful Old Town was very easy. The local bus service is convenient and takes around ten minutes, while those feeling energetic can enjoy a scenic walk of approximately 35 to 40 minutes.
I would like to extend my sincere thanks to the management team, reception staff, guest representatives, catering team, housekeeping staff, and everyone else who worked so hard behind the scenes to make our stay such an enjoyable one. Their commitment to excellent service was evident throughout our holiday.
Without doubt, this has been one of the best holidays my partner and I have ever enjoyed. We left with wonderful memories and are already looking forward to returning to Hotel Lapad in the future.
Thank you to everyone at Hotel Lapad for making our stay so memorable.
