Hotel Lapad Dubrovnik
Four-star hotel | Dubrovnik, Croatia View on a map
Hotel Lapad is a family-owned four-star hotel on the waterfront of Gruž Bay, combining a historic 1914 wing with a newer Classic wing, Mediterranean gardens and an outdoor pool.
The hotel has 163 rooms and suites, marina and garden views, family rooms, private parking and a bus stop for Dubrovnik Old Town only a few steps away.
Waterfront location between Lapad and Gruž
Hotel Lapad stands on Lapadska obala, facing the marina across Gruž Bay. The hotel places Dubrovnik Old Town at around 3 km away.
Local bus 6 stops only a few steps from the hotel and runs towards the Old Town. Walking takes roughly 45 minutes, so the bus is usually the more practical option for sightseeing.
A hotel with more than a century of history
Construction of the original hotel began in 1912 and Hotel Lapad officially opened in March 1914. Its preserved historic facade now forms the Superior wing.
The Classic wing was added in 1987, creating the two-part hotel that operates today.
163 rooms and suites in two wings
Hotel Lapad has 163 rooms and suites divided between its historic Superior wing and newer Classic wing.
Superior wing
The Superior wing has 19 double rooms and 4 junior suites. Rooms look towards either the garden or marina. None of the Superior rooms or suites has a balcony.
Classic wing
The Classic wing has 138 rooms and 2 junior suites. Most Classic rooms have a balcony or terrace, with categories offering garden or side sea views.
The Classic wing also contains family rooms with interconnecting doors and adapted rooms for guests with disabilities.
Family rooms and accessible accommodation
The hotel's family rooms consist of two interconnected Classic rooms, one with a double bed and the other with two single beds. Each room has its own bathroom.
Junior suites can also accommodate families with up to two children using the sofa bed. The hotel confirms two rooms fully equipped for guests with disabilities, as well as wheelchair-accessible lifts.
Outdoor pool and garden terrace
The outdoor swimming pool is set inside the hotel's garden courtyard. It is currently open from 08:00 to 19:00, and pool towels are provided free for hotel guests.
The Lobby & Pool Bar opens directly onto the pool area, making the courtyard one of the more relaxed parts of the property during the warmer months.
Restaurant Lapad and Lobby & Pool Bar
Restaurant Lapad currently serves buffet breakfast from 06:30 to 10:00 and buffet dinner from 19:00 to 21:00. Gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian meals can be arranged.
Lobby & Pool Bar is open from 08:00 to midnight and serves drinks, snacks, brunch and light lunches on the terrace overlooking the pool and marina.
Massage treatments
Hotel Lapad promotes massage treatments through Studio Balans. This is a massage service rather than a full hotel spa complex, so travellers looking specifically for saunas, indoor pools or a large wellness centre should not expect the same facilities found at Dubrovnik's larger resort hotels.
Parking and transfers
Hotel Lapad has private uncovered parking for €10 per day. Spaces are limited and cannot be guaranteed in advance.
The hotel can also arrange airport transfers. Because transfer prices can change, confirm the current rate directly when booking the service.
