Hidden Gems
The Lost Hotel
of Dubrovnik
A forgotten luxury resort frozen in time.
The Experience
One of Dubrovnik's most fascinating hidden places.
Most visitors walk the city walls. Very few discover the abandoned luxury hotel overlooking them.
Perched above the Adriatic and within sight of Dubrovnik Old Town, Hotel Belvedere was once one of the most prestigious hotels on the coast. Today, the building remains abandoned, creating one of the most unusual and thought-provoking places in the region.
What was once a luxury destination is now a silent reminder of Dubrovnik's recent history. The combination of dramatic architecture, incredible viewpoints and historical significance makes this one of the most unique places you can visit outside the usual tourist route.

PlanMyVibes Note
This isn't a place we recommend to everyone.
But if you're the type of traveler who likes discovering places with stories, history and character, Belvedere is difficult to forget.
The views are impressive. The story behind the building is even more interesting.
Important Safety Information
Explore responsibly and at your own risk.
Because the hotel is in ruins and severe disrepair, you must watch your step at all times. Please stay outside on common ground areas and absolutely do not enter the interiors.
