Guest Reviews

• Dawid (10/5): -
• Jenna (10/5): Excellent stay - We loved the location of the apartment. You can easily walk down to Old Town’s Pile Gate via a long but gentle staircase, which makes getting into the historic center both convenient and scenic. The apartment itself is very functional and spacious, with a comfortable room, a small kitchen, and a clean, roomy bathroom. There’s also a clothesline available for doing laundry, which was a nice practical touch during our stay. Overall, we really enjoyed our time here and would happily stay again. Nothing.
• Andrew (10/5): -
• Marcin (10/5): -
• Oscar (9/5): -
• Abigail (9/5): - Great location just by fort minceta. If walking up from old town there are ?200 steps but you get used to them- but the road is right by the property so you can also get a taxi almost to the door if you have lots of luggage- we got an Uber to the bus station Very clean property and the host is very nice Perhaps the only thing- would be useful to have a shower screen door rather than shower curtain, to avoid water running onto the floor
• FANG JUNG (10/5): 非常好 - 地點、設備還有可愛的房東太太 沒有
• Kristė (9/5): - Die Vermieterin ist sehr freundlich und gesprächsfreundlich. Die Wohnung ist nur ein paar Minuten von der Altstadt entfernt. Die Ausstattung ist ausreichend, mit einem Wasserkocher und einem Kühlschrank. Um für ein paar Tage die Stadt zu erkunden ist die Wohnung super.
• George (10/5): - Nice modern well equipped, clean apartment. Welcoming host who gave useful information. 10 minute walk to cable car and shuttle bus stop and also to Old Town gates.
• Gaione (9/5): - La recepcion y atencion personalizada de la señora Carmen. Un poco escaso el espacio en la habitacion, suficiente para descansar bien
• Paul (10/5): - Across the street from the old town. Minutes away from Pile Gate and the Cable Car. Nice outdoor sitting and dining area. Comfortable bed and super clean. Our host always had good suggestions for what to see.
• Fiona (10/5): - Excellent location for visiting the Old Town: literally just outside the city walls. Nice covered outside space & table and chairs for outside dining. Great to have use of washing line to dry swim wear. Good air conditionin. Local supermarket 5 minutes walk up the road, open Monday- Saturday 7am-22.00, closed Sunday. Bakery, beside the supermarket, open 6:00-22:00 every day including Sunday.
• Alfonso Andrea (7/5): -
• Stefan (10/5): - Conveniently located just up the hill from the old town, great view, everything walkable. The apartment was clean and well kept. Overall a very pleasant stay.
• Adam (10/5): -
• Werner (9/5): Location-location for exploring the old Dubrovnik city. - Compact and comfortable with location-location. Very friendly reception and helpful conversation. Wi-fi struggled however this was not a major problem for us.
• Durdevic (10/5): Super - De faciliteiten waren top, airco werkt goed en het was erg schoon. Geen opmerkingen.
• Michela (7/5): - Posizione buona da cui si raggiunge velocemente il centro (ci sono molte scale per arrivare, ma nella città è normale) e l'host è gentilissima e sempre pronta per dei consigli! La stanza e il bagno sono molto piccoli (il lavandino in bagno in particolare), va bene per soggiorni brevi da una/due notti. Non c'erano shampoo e bagnoschiuma.
• Rodrigo (10/5): - Very friendly host. We had a beautiful time here. Thank you. 😊
• Verified traveler (8/5): Lovely place to stay. - Lovely host, good location, cute tortoises in the garden. Looks even better than the pictures and it was great having a washing machine only thing would be nice to have shower gel shampoo and conditioner.
• margaret (8/5): - This apartment is right across the Street from the City Walls. Very convenient to Old Town. The apt is super clean, had nice clean fresh sheets and towels. Carmen was waiting for us after the hike from Ploce Gate bus station. She gave us some restaurant recommendations and where to find the bus to the Port . Overall, it was a great place to put your things down and go adventure out into the City. Thank you for a nice stay.
• SUSAN (10/5): Quiet, private room opposite the entrance to the old city - Excellent location. Very clean, lovely, helpful host. A fridge is always the best bonus! Beds were a little small but it’s only a small room!
• Antonio (10/5): -
• Aleksandar (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ioanna (9/5): A lovely stay in a wonderful place - Everything was lovely and clean! There was only a strange smell in the room, but not so bothering! The apartment was clean and tidy, the bed big and very comfortable! The location perfect! You can go everywhere on foot! The hostess also was very kind and helpful! Thank you for a lovely stay in your apartment! Just a strange smell, but not too bothering.
• Cristina Martha (10/5): - El departamento está muybbien ubicado, es un poco cansado de llegar por la subida pero estás cerca de la ciudad amurallada por muy buen precio. El espacio es de buen tamaño y tiene muchas comodidades como refri, aire acondicionado, lavadora, etc. Lo único que necesita mejorar son las toallas, son muy duras y supongo viejas y sábanas y colcha también les caería bien una mejora. La señora que vive ahí es muy amable y fuera de eso todo estuvo muy bien
• Les (9/5): Superb - Everything Nothing
• Odd Hilberg (8/5): Anbefales på det varmeste for et par. - Leiligheten var enkel, men sett i forhold til plasseringen helt ideell. Bare å krysse veien så var vi på trappen direkte ned til hovedporten inn til gamlebyen. En liten butikk, et bakeri og et serveringssted ca 5 min. gåtur fra leiligheten. Bussholdeplass for flybuss ca 10 min. gåtur. Vertinnen møtte oss da vi ankom. Hun er trivelig og servicevennlig dame. Et veldig bra opphold hadde vi
• Angie (8/5): Very good - The location is very good and convenient, and the host was friendly and welcoming. There was no shower gel or shampoo provided.
• Yasushi (9/5): Superb -
• Sarah (10/5): - Exactly as advertised! If you are going to Dubrovnik, this is the apartment to book. Literally, right next to Tvrđava Minčeta, you can see if from your door! Its so centrally located and because it is right outside Old Town, you can easily catch a cab in and out! The management is helpful and friendly - if I ever return, this is the spot I'm going to book!
• Alireza (7/5): Good -
• Behzad (8/5): - Apartments Kapelica is only a stone-throw away from one of the old Dubrovnik gates which places it satisfactorily away from the hustle and bustle, and drawing your luggage down the stairs into the town while you have walkable access to the wall, shops, and restaurants within minutes. The amenities inside the property could use a rearrangement as there was barely no room to wash yourself under the shower.
• Emma (10/5): Exceptional - The location was great, the apartment was clean and tidy and the host was very friendly. It was also very peaceful.
• Diane (4/5): - When booking I would advise you check it isn’t the small room as it’s absolutely tiny. Mosquitos are an issue as is the initial journey to the property. The bathroom was also tiny & it was hard to use the sink to wash your face but the toilet & shower were good. The larger rooms for rent looked so much better & warrant the high rating but the small one would better be classed as a single.
• Kathy (7/5): Cozy adventure - Location was great We found the room very small . The bathroom was really small . We had no place for our bags and there were only three hangers in a small cupboard. The room was suitable for one person . I didn’t understand how small it was when I booked . The other room would have suited us better
• To (6/5): Pleasant -
• Vicki (7/5): very basic but great location - Great location. The owner was friendly and available. if you need internet, you might be out of luck.
• Tania (5/5): Passable - Location to old city was great. It is better to be outside the old city walls than within tls as it can get very hot. Host was lovely and very friendly. Room.and ensuit was clean The room was too small. Definitely not for two people for more than a night. Nowhere to place suitcases. Limited space for tea and coffee. On arrival, I was quite disappointed that there was no kitchen or access to a kitchen. I thought I had booked an apartment. Don't make the mistake we did.. I must have read the booking page wrong or it was not very clear. It was just so cramped. The location and host made up for the negatives.
• Rachna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kitson (8/5): Great for city break. - Location perfect for access into city. Having a terrace to sit out was ideal. Very clean and comfortable. Host lovely and friendly.
• Lizzie (10/5): Exceptional - The location and absolutely lovely host were what stood out!..beautiful clean apartment just less than 10 mins walk from the Old Town...accessed by lots of steps so maybe not for people with mobility problems...the bus stop is just outside and the view lovely with a grass area and terrace to sit...will absolutely love to return someday soon!
• David (10/5): - Beautiful location with views of the old town walls. Very friendly and helpful host with plenty of tips to share with guests. Easy walk down to pile gate and the main old town area.
• Stefani (10/5): - Great location right outside of old town with 2 different areas to get to and from. Clean property. Would definitely stay again!
• Marijana (10/5): Exceptional - The hostess was really personable and helped us out with our questions. We booked the room which was a little small for two of us - we recommend booking the apartment as the location is spectacular.
• Terracciano (10/5): Nice, comfortable, right up on the old city - Carmen is a special person, extremely nice and awesome. She gave to us every kind of help, advices, and she was always there for us. The apartment is very confortable, the photos don't really show how the apartment is well organized, clean and well structured.
• Beatriz (10/5): Perfect!!!! Wouldn’t change a thing! - Everything!!!! The room was clean, comfortable and had what I needed for a short stay! Two main reasons why I enjoyed room Kapelica so much, the location was literally the best you could find, the property is in front of the stairs to go down to the centre which was AMAZING and has a wonderful and big terrace with table to drink your morning coffee if you want!! And Carmen, the owner was just unbelievable, she was sweet, helpful and respectful! She gave me innumerable tips such as which beach to go to, how and where to take the bus or best times/prices for different activities…I would definitely go back!!! It didn’t affect my trip at all since I am very petite but bathroom was a little small … there are two options there, I stayed at the room but there is also and apartment that is bigger with kitchen if suits you better!
• emma (8/5): - It was great! The host was very kind and sweet and helpful with everything we needed. It was SO well located - the path to old town was literally across the street. Only thing to lament about was that the shower wasn’t draining properly, but that’s fixable. Great stay!
• Tim (9/5): Host was lovely and friendly. Location was great! -
• Yolandie (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rebecca (7/5): Great apartment but you need to figure out the buses before you arrive! - Clean, modern, well quipped and friendly host present in check in and check out. Water went cold quickly in the shower. Host spoke very little English. About 150 steps up to the apartment which host didn’t make clear on listing. There is a bus stop on right outside the flat but we couldn’t make sense of the buses so it would have been great if the host gave clear instructions of how to get there?
• Jamini (10/5): Exceptional - Everything! A great location with an amazing host, Carmen helped with everything we needed. The room was a little small however sufficient for us for a few days.
• Katriina (10/5): Would recommend! - Air conditioning was great, nice and cool dark room was perfect for comfortable sleeping during hot summer days. The room was also nice and quiet and the host was friendly. Great location right next to old town. We enjoyed our stay a lot, I stayed with my mom in a room for 2 people. This was ok to us, but good to know to people visiting if you have bad legs that there are about 200 (counted them lol) stairs up from old town main gate to the accommodation. However, you can take a taxi/drive right next to the accommodation and only walk a couple of stairs if you prefer to skip the hike up. On the other hand, the view from up there is excellent.
• Timothy (10/5): Excellent location and very clean place to stay - I loved the cleanness of the place, the lady who took care of the place and the location. There are very few stairs from the main road drop off so you don't have to drag the suitcases many steps. The lady who took care of the place is an actual owner of the house hence she keeps the place very clean. I stayed in the apartment so it had all the amenities including a microwave and washing machine. The location is excellent too, it takes less than 10 minutes to walk to the old town. A small shower stall was the only thing we didn't like.
• Paul (7/5): Good - Location was amazing and the host was so lovely. would love to stay again but would book the apartment which is much bigger and looks really lovely. Our twin room was far too small for us.
• Zhaque (9/5): great - I booked the place for my sister and this her and her husband's review ------ the location was superB, the owner messaged instructions before they arrived. They felt they were looked after
• Mcdonald (7/5): Good - Great location with easy access to old town. The beds are quite firm and the room is very small.
• Daniela (9/5): Really nice view and location! - The apparment is really good located. In the center of Dubrovnik near the beach, the wall and the old state. There is even a washing machine to clean clothes and a hanger to dry them.
• Fei (10/5): Exceptional - The hostess was really nice and friendly. She was there to check us in and told us how to use the laundry. The room was clean and spacious enough for two. The apartment is located up the stairs beside Pile Gate, so to avoid climbing up with buggage take bus number 8 from the bus station at Gruz port. It is possible to take buses to avoid the stairs but do note that the frequency is not high for some.
• Chloe (8/5): Great little room in centre of Dubrovnik - The location was very accessible to the old town. The host was lovely and helpful. Would recommend!! Beds were a little on the hard side but comfortable enough, the WiFi kept cutting out but thankfully we had our data and then regarding the location, it’s a steep walk up and down stairs to the center of the town which is fine but good to keep in mind!
• Elaine (8/5): Very good -
• Martin (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jody (8/5): Very good - It was at the top of the Old City so access via Uber from airport was perfect. A bit smaller than I’d anticipated but she does have an apt that is a little larger. Shower was great. Unfortunately satellite/cable was out but that can’t be helped. Was nice to have outside sitting/table to work on my laptop. So enjoyed Gabriella my host! Would definitely recommend for easy access and all necessities !
• Siw (10/5): Super plass - Helt topp plass og god beliggenhet. Anbefales på det varmeste.
• Karolina (9/5): Superb - Great location with a fabulous view and a cute little garden. The hostess was really nice and accommodating too.
• Nita (9/5): Primo Location - Location- literally a stone’s throw from old town walls. Clean and comfortable. Helpful host who was kind. Hvala Carmen! Minor quibble- no shampoo or body wash, only hand soap but not a deal breaker in light of fantastic location.
• Catherine (9/5): Superb - Clean. Location 👍
• Kate (9/5): Superb - Very convenient for visiting the old town, although you have to be happy to climb and descend a lot of steep steps. Good value for money. Facilities included a kettle, microwave, hot plates with pans and a fridge allowing cooking of simple meals. Our hostess was very friendly and helpful offering advice about the local buses and allowing us to leave our luggage for a few extra hours until the time of our departure bus.
• Lorraine (10/5): Fabulous - Absolutely fabulous stay. Location fantastic, just outside the walls of old town. Host was so lovely and gave loads of ideas where to go and what to do. Room was spotless. Could not rate this accommodation highly enough. We got the flixbus from Split to Dubrovnik, so it dropped us at the main station. We got the number 8 bus and it dropped us across the road from the accommodation. Bus to Dubrovnik airport for €10 from outside the entrance to the Cable Car (less than 5 minutes walk) from this accommodation. Absolutely nothing.
• Magdalena (8/5): Very good -
• Lucy (7/5): Great if you're exploring all day and just need a spot right near the action to sleep and shower! - Location wise, this can't be beat! You're just enough outside the walls but close to all the action and so many good things! The host was also incredibly friendly and accommodating. I really liked her! This room is SMALL. To give a picture of it, my husband and I are newlyweds (so very much in love and happy to be close) and this was still way too cramped for us haha. I think the pictures of the property are misleading too because they also show the other room that has more space and a kitchen. We're digital nomads so wifi is a must and it's just not very good at this spot unless you're right by the door.
• Anthony (10/5): Exceptional -
• Paul (8/5): Great spot just outside the walls - The location is great - just outside the walls. A 2 minute walk down the hill to the old town. Walking up can be hard work especially if it's hot so there is a small fitness requirement. Apartment very good and well presented. There were no plates to eat of that I could find.
• Yasunori (8/5): Best way to stay alone! - Location and owner A few AC changing points No shampoo
• Linda (8/5): Good location close to Old Town. - Good secure location close to Old Town, resident turtles in the yard, friendly host. Limited hot water in shower, no large top sheet on bed, no shady place to sit in afternoon.
• Renata (10/5): Exceptional -
• Vani (10/5): Host us friendly and helpful and location is great - Location and close to everything Rooms are small but it’s the way it is in Croatia. So not bad overall
• Anna (8/5): Very good - The location was really good and the owner was most helpful.
• Petri (9/5): Superb - Good location and very nice hostess! Own kitchen was a great for making breakfast. There is two pet turtles on the yard.
• Natasa (10/5): Exceptional -
• David (8/5): Great location. - Great location just above the walls, friendly host, comfortable room with a small shared patio. Room a bit on the small side, but had everything you need.
• Amy (10/5): Exceptional -
• Danielle (10/5): Wonderful place close to everything. - The hostcwas amazing,great location to everything.
• Margaret (10/5): Amazing stay for a local vibe - Truly the best. It was in a perfect location, right outside the old town. Although there was lots of stairs, it was nice and quiet at night an easy to come and go around Dubrovnik. The ammenities were great and our host was lovely Although having a washing machine was great, a dryer could be a great use :) but other than that no real dislikes about the property. It was perfect
• Sonia (10/5): Exceptional -
• Bayley (8/5): Very good -
• Sayuri (10/5): We’re so glad to stay there. - The location was perfect. We didn’t need to carry suitcase on the long stairs. The room was lovely. More than anything, we love the host. She is very helpful and great to chat with her. With our host advice, we could go to the nice restaurant and catch the necessary bus in front of the apartment.
• Sue (9/5): Great location, great apartment, and Dora kind and helpful - Great location and apartment. We’re a family of 3 was a bit too snug sharing a damn bedroom with our adult daughter. Definitely suitable for couple or younger child. Dora the owner very helpful and the outlook over the old town superb. Plus she has three tortoises roaming the front yard. A great place to sit out in the mornings and evenings. A tad snug for 3 adults
• Kanae (9/5): great - so clean&near by everywhere
• Hannah (8/5): Brilliant location and the air-con is a lifesaver! - Amazing location
• Hanaa (10/5): A very welcoming host, in a perfect location. - We both really enjoyed our stay in Dubrovnik. The host was lovely, and very welcoming. She helped us by providing recommendations to popular restaurants, beaches and sightseeing. She also guided us with the local bus stops and shuttle transfers to the airport. She made us feel very welcomed and comfortable in Dubrovnik, and her turtles were an added bonus when having our morning coffee on the morning! I had washed some clothes and woke up to them already folded for me, very thoughtful lady! The location was perfect, with a beautiful view. Would highly recommend. I didn’t dislike anything, but take note that the room we stayed in had limited space. The host explained given this house is 400 years old this was the building structure. We stayed for 5 nights, and it was definitely functional, but just something for others to take not of.
• Panagiota (6/5): Pleasant - Perfect location Very bad quality of the bed - it was really hard to sleep on it. No shower gels and shampoos were provided.
• Raumann (9/5): Super location, everything was OK but don't be loud at night like we were, others might not like it - Very good location. Very clean rooms (but a little bit tooo small). Nice little garden/territory in front of apartments. Small rooms. Parking is a liitle bit far away (5-10 min walk), but that must be expected for such a place in the center just by the old town's wall.
• Daniela (10/5): Central with stunning views - This is the best place to stay in Dubrovnik! Close to everything, with stunning views, welcoming host, so you can't ask for more. They seem to use an agency for communication purposes, and to be honest they are a bit lost, asking for the same information several times, and not answering to queries that are not related to check in ans check out purposes
• Daniel (9/5): We had a really nice stay at the property. The room was clean and comfortable, located near Dubrovnik castle, and with a - The property was clean and the location was fantastic, short walk right to the middle of old town! The host was friendly and welcoming, and there is a family of little turtles that occupy the lawn in front of the room. Had some wifi issues and AC took a while to cool the room.
• Andrea (9/5): Superb - Location. Although just outside the city walls, it was very quiet at night. Good shower. Owner was very kind and helpful.
• Tat (10/5): A great place to stay - A beautiful, clean room in an excellent location (just a few steps down to the Old Town gate). True to pictures. The host was wonderful and made us feel welcome.
• Stephan (9/5): Superb - Super location at wall of olf town and nice appartment with garden
• Michelle (9/5): Breathtaking views over the Old Town & comfortable, well equipped apartment! - The apartment was small but had everything we needed for our trip and it was comfortable. It was situated just above the Old Town - there are steps down to Pile Gate just opposite or you can walk down the road to Ploce Gate (10 mins walk). The view from the garden is what made us book this apartment, and it exceeded expectations - you can see all over the Old Town walls and out to sea, and it is just stunning! The apartment was well equipped and had everything we needed (minus a jug) for cooking and preparing our own meals (Dubrovnik is expensive so we opted to make our food at the apartment). There is a small supermarket and bakery around a 5 minute walk up the road and the Cable Car station is a few minutes walk down the road. The owner was very friendly and welcoming. She had two little tortoises roaming free on the grassy area of the garden so be careful of your step! There was some outdoor seating on the patio which was a lovely touch. We would stay again in a heartbeat! As we travelled in April, the nights were chilly and there were only blankets on offer. We would have appreciated some spare blankets to layer up, or a duvet. Apart from this, the apartment was perfect for us and we would not hesitate to stay again.
• Chance (10/5): Exceptional - So very clean, great location just outside the old city. Cozy with everything you need. And so clean! The hot water is a bit limited. After shaving and running the water (no stopper for the sink) I had very little hot water left for the shower. There would have been plenty had I known.
