Scene
A two-room budget property with friendly owners set inside an old stone building
Apartment & Room Lukre is located inside a four-story building made of white stone with hunter green shutters. The hotel is outside the action of the Old Town, but within a short five-minute walk of Pile Gate. While other rentals in the area require climbing a lot of stairs, this property is set in a location that doesn't require many steps. A friendly couple runs the hotel, earning rave reviews from guests for their hospitality. The owners offer a variety of services for a fee including airport transfers, excursions to Montenegro, and tours of the nearby islands via a speedboat. The owners also provide directions and recommendations for guests wanting to explore on their own. Guests are mostly leisure travelers on a budget, many drawn by the self-catering kitchenette (and large furnished terrace) in the apartment.
Location
Walking distance to Old Town and two beaches
Apartment & Room Lukre is a short five-minute walk from Pile Gate, marking the entrance to Dubrovnik's Old Town, a scenic UNESCO World Heritage Site with preserved churches and fountains dating back to the 13th century.

The Mount Srdj Ropeway -- where guests can take a cable car to the top of the mountain for breathtaking views -- is within a 10-minute walk, but visitors warn to bring water for the walk, which can be hot, depending on the time of year. Dubrovnik Airport is less than a half hour drive away.
