Clinging

Clinging
onto the cliff face, this sleek hotel sits 30 metres
above the crystalline waters of the Adriatic and offers guests
cinematic views from every angle. Just a short walk from the main
entrance to Dubrovnik‘s old town and above
its own private Miramare Bay, the Bellevue
is the perfect place to kick back and relax, while also acts as an
excellent launchpad from which to explore the surrounding area.

Rooms

After a room with a view? The strategic cliffside location means
the Bellevue offers some of the best views in Croatia. Take your
pick from 91 airy guest rooms decorated in neutral colours, each
with spectacular vistas of the sparkling bay below. More expensive
options go that one step further and come complete with a private
balcony overlooking the water.

Whats for breakfast?

Begin the day the right way with an extensive selection of
breakfast dishes, either made to
order or picked from the vibrant buffet – all enjoyed from the
breezy veranda over looking the cobalt-blue sea, of course.

How about lunch and dinner?

All the hotel’s restaurants have that view but the
hotel’s signature restaurant, Vapor, has been voted one of the best
restaurants in Croatia . Expect typical
Dalmatian food with a modern twist and an impressive wine list to top it off. As for
lunch, if walking up the steps in the midday sun is too much, stay
put at beach restaurant Nevera, where
you can tuck into fresh fish and oysters from the nearby town of
Ston.

Is there a bar?

Yes, the Spice Bar is pretty breathtaking at sunset; start the
night as you mean to go on with a sun-downer cocktail on the
terrace.

Amenities

Breakfast included, complimentary wifi, childcare services,
dry-clean/laundry service, spa and wellness centre, indoor pool, fitness centre and free
parking.

Things you should know

If you’re travelling light forget your washbag and take full
advantage of the L’Occitane-stocked bathrooms. Don’t expect a huge
gym, instead get your fitness fix in the freshwater pool which
overlooks the bay.

Within a short walk you can find…

Just a 15-minute walk (or quick bus ride) along the coast you
will find Dubrovnik’s picturesque old town, now a UNESCO heritage
site and well worth visiting. It’s a good place to wander through
in no specific direction, getting lost in the winding streets.
Before you head off, however, get an overall idea of the layout by
catching a cable car up to the top for a bird’s eye view of the
town (and some mandatory holiday snaps). If this isn’t enough, Game
of Thrones fans can take a boat tour on the same ship used in
filming King’s Landing (with insider gossip included).
