I've never been so completely blown away by a city in my life. Dubrovnik has it all. The amazing old walled city holds your gaze and refuses to let go. Normally a three star kind of gal, I splurged and stayed at the wonderful Hotel Argentina, hanging on the cliffs of the coastline. My very luxurious room had a beautiful tile balcony where I sat and gazed on the old town while the sun rose, set and worked its way across the blue, blue sky.
- Pros:Not enough superlatives to describe Dubrovnik
- Cons:The Croatian language could use a few vowels!

Just passing through Dubrovnik this year, en route to the airport - time for a drink at the Buzza Bar but not to sample the pleasures of that lovely hotel. Next time ...
What a stunning city! Thanks for the tips and photos. Buzza looks great!
I am so looking forward to Dubrovnik next year. I am soaking up all the info I can get. Thanks Katherine, I'll think of you when I walk the wall.
Great tips here- the hotel looks fabulous, and Atlas tours sounds good., especially the Wine tour. Love that Buzza place, but is it safe?? Croatia seems like a good destination for future travel.
Nice to hear that Atlas Tours are a good company. Have looked at their tours, and liked them, especially the one to Montenegro. Dubrovnik is beautiful!
god, it looks great there
I am amazed that you got the room at that price! We paid twice that in March. I wondered what the villas were like so glad to hear it from you.
I hadno idea Dubrovnik was this beautiful--the views were gorgeous and the town with meandering wall very picturesque!
I don't know what time of year you were - but it looks as it the weather was perfect! What a well-preserved gem of a city!
I would not have believed how beautiful this city was if I hadn't seen your pic of this walled treasure. Really enjoyed reading your updates since I last visited! :)
