Kompas Dubrovnik Hotel

Last week in June spent a week half board with my husband at The Hotel Kompas , Lapad, Dubrovnik. Rated 4 * but I think should be 5 *. Arrived at the hotel about lunchtime after about 30 min drive from airport. Hotel is built into a steep hillside and so reception was on floor 10 at the very top or the building. Reception was immaculate and you could see the amazing views over the Lapad Bay from the panoramic windows. Lounge bar and outside terrace here were stunning. We were in a room on floor 4 . I had not paid for a sea view , but perhaps on reflection wish I had , however we were absolutely delighted with our bedroom and bathroom, albeit no view . The hotel is very modern and minimalistic in design , which I love. Very light grey walls and thin beautiful carpets in bedroom with light maple coloured wooden wardrobes and modern furniture. Bathroom had a full size large bath as well as overhead large shower and hand held shower attachment. Breakfast and evening meal buffet were great with a large choice to pick from. I was glad we went half board as eating out is expensive here . Staff in restaurant were very attentive and helpful especially the manager . The hotel pool was lovely and we also went to the small pebble beach in front of the hotel where some beds are exclusively for Hotel Kompas guests. You can also enter the water at points all around the bay with steps directly into the sea. Absolutely stunning. Thank you Hotel Kompas and all its’ staff who made our weeks holiday brilliant. Would definitely recommend this hotel especially couples , outside the school holidays season.

Very good hotel. Staff all very helpful. Ideal location, right next to beach, restaurants, bars and pleasant coastal walks. Very clean, spacious room with all mod cons. Was there for wifes birthday and very suprised to see a birthday cake in room when we returned one late afternoon - Lovely touch. Swimming pool on 2nd floor was clean but not very big. Never tried indoor one as it was to hot to be inside. Plenty of sun beds spread about. Supermarket is only 10 mins walk - 12 kuna for 6 litre bottle of water which we topped up small bottles with and used fridge in room to chill them. Usually about 5 kuna for a small bottle of water. 'Promenade' bar near hotel is Dubrovnik's answer to Wetherspoons as it was very reasonably priced for beer and cocktails. Breakfast was more than satisfactory but evening meals and bar prices were a little steep, but as I mentioned there are loads of bars and eating establishments along the strip. Old Town was spectacular but busy - try to visit when cruise ships visiting are at a minimum. Scenery around Dubrovnik is stunning - the chairlift to the top of a mountain by the Old Town gave breathtaking views. All in all we would highly recommend this hotel, no major complaints at all.........

My husband, son (8 yrs old) and I had a delightful stay at the Kompas. We debated between staying in the old town of Dubrovnik versus here in Lapad and are SO happy with our choice. It was a hot and sunny week in Croatia and being at the Kompas with access to a beautiful beach and pool was perfect! The hotel is quiet and chic and our room with a balcony (with a gorgeous sea view) was the perfect place to return to after a day of sun and/or sightseeing. The hotel staff was pleasant and helpful and our room was immaculate. Would definitely recommend this hotel and would love to return!
