Excellent apartment hotel in old town
Great host! Best location. The host provided recommendations for activities and restaurants which all lived up to expectarions. Very helpful with luggage and check-in time flexibility. Clean rooms and renovated bathroom. Beachtowels were provided.

A disappointing lack of basics in Dubrovnik
Myself and my wife stayed here at the tail end of our holiday in Croatia. Having opted for budget to midrange places in Zadar, Split and Mljet we decided to pay a bit more in order to be able to stay in the Old Town and be close to the city walls, beaches and ports. I’ll caveat this review by saying that Dubrovnik is expensive no matter where you stay or go. Much of the accommodation is on the small side due to the old town buildings being divided up into rooms rather than full modern sized apartments, so we weren’t so naive to think we’d living it up with our choice.
Let’s start with the positives. Our room was very centrally located, only a few minutes away from the Stradurn, shops and the ports. We walked our way from Gruž, which was a bit of a trek but we found it easily enough and let ourselves in with minimum effort thanks to good communication from our host. Our bed was comfortable, the shower was hot and powerful, wifi was solid and at night it was nice and quiet as the city emptied out around us.
Unfortunately, the negatives will make up the rest of my review, and there are a few. Firstly, the self catering element, specifically the refrigerator listed as a facility. A unifying aspect of all our booking decisions was the option to prepare some basic meals at home, so as to save on eating out all the time and also to store and prepare lunches and cold drinks when heading out on day trips to islands or days at the beach. This approach served us very well at our other destinations, and we planned on doing the same in Dubrovnik, bringing pre bought food and drink in a cool bag from Mljet. Upon arrival it became clear that our small room did not have a real fridge, but a mini bar fridge, with no ice compartment or adjustable settings. It was quickly apparent that the fridge was already struggling to stay cold with nothing in it, and despite putting only minimal items in, by our first evening nothing had stayed below room temperature. We highlighted this to our host via whatsapp, but we told there was nothing they could do. Whilst I don’t put the blame on our booking contact, this is indicative of the kind of business model that runs dozens of these rooms around the city. Its a bare minimum approach, as was the cramped space afforded to us around the sink and cooking hobs. You could just about put together a pasta dinner or salad with freshly bought ingredients, albeit with little point of keeping leftovers in the mini bar. There were also no proper coffee making facilities, just sachets of instant coffee which we declined to use, going out to buy the real thing instead at yet another cost.
The other major issue was the lack of drying facilities. Be aware that if you book the ground floor no.1 room, you will have no where to hang out any wet towels or clothes, unlike the apartments above. This was very frustrating when trying to dry beach towels or water shoes in between day trips to the beaches, and especially annoying when we got caught in a thunder storm on our second last night. The weather in Croatia in September is ideal mostly, but boy when it rains, it pours. Only once did we receive fresh towels and that was only because someone else was checking out. Although you could try and dry wet items in the bathroom, but as it had no natural light or airflow, your only real option would be to head up the hill to and spend more of your holiday budget and time in a laundrette. All the while the breeze blew and sun shone at 25 degrees outside our door.
For the money we paid, we would have expected better cooking, storage and drying facilities but it seems as though we would have to fork out a lot more or stay much further away from the centre to have these basics amenities provided. Add to the fact that some small furniture repairs and a lick of fresh paint on the walls are clearly a few years overdue, I’m sorry to say that I cannot recommend this accommodation for much more than it’s location.

Cancelled trip due to COVID-19
Even though we haven’t been able to visit this hotel or Croatia yet due to having to cancel our trip due to COVID-19, I just wanted to say out of every hotel we had booked for our 8 week Europe trip, Apartments Raic was the only hotel that gave us a prompt fuss free refund, which we really appreciate! We will certainly try to rebook this hotel when we are eventually able to visit Croatia. Thanks so much

Excellent stay!
Immaculate apartment! Had a 3 night break away here. Very well located for touring around the area. Ivana was very welcoming and showed us where to visit different places and restaurants. Could not fault it in anyway. We wish Ivana all the best for the future and hope to see her again next year. Thank you once again for a lovely stay.

Clean, comfortable, well-located
This was one of the cleanest rooms I’ve ever stayed in anywhere. It is very close to the Buza gate where you can arrive by taxi or airport transfer. The owner Ivana will meet you there and take you directly to the apartment. Ivana is terrific! — she responds quickly to emails, helps arrange aiport transfer (do this — it’s so much more convenient and is very affordable), and provides you with excellent, precise information about best restaurants, tours, etc. The apartment is very close to the heart of old town, but is far enough removed that it is fairly quiet. It also felt very safe. You are provided with a kettle, some dishes, a sink and small hob, beach towels, towels and linens, and basic amenities, including shampoo, soap, a hair dryer, etc. Apartments also have air conditioning which was very welcome as it was in the mid-80s and very humid during our June visit. The apartment is just a couple of minutes from one of the access points to the city wall walk, a minute or two from the main walking street (Stradun), and is located on one of the charming, steep, stair-lined “streets” of old town, where local residents sit on the steps to chat and some of the city cats prowl about. I can’t recommend this apartment more — we will go back to Dubrovnik, and we hope we can stay there again!
