Perla Hotel Dubrovnik

We stayed at Perla Hotel for one night, while in Dubrovnik (it was not our first time there, so we have a term of comparison and we know ourselves around town). Perla is a nice 3* hotel, well-located especially if you're going to Dubrovnik for the beach. It is located in a touristy area of Lapad, which is probably the best beach in town (if you don't count the beaches in the outskirts of Dubrovnik that you'd have to drive to). Rooms are fairly large and confortable. Breakfast is nice - included in the hotel fare, it is a buffet (far from extraordinary) and you can order omelettes. Last, but not least, staff was extremely helpful and friendly! On the flipside, we asked for a queen-size bed and we god two single-beds lumped together (and this was not the first time while in Croatia). Wi-fi was not working (I needed to go down to the reception and get a wired connection at the counter). If going to the Old Town is what you're in Dubrovnik for, the location is fair. It is not very close to the Old Town itself (and few hotels are!), but you can take a bus (bus stop is 5-minute walk) and catch a bus for 10kn (€1.25) that will drop you in front of the Old Town. Buses run every 15 minutes or so. You should also be advised that the hotel does NOT have car parking. There is a supermarket close enough (called Tommy) where you can park you car for free, but you'll be subject to parking space availability.
