Open calculator βWhere Dubrovnik gets expensive
Dubrovnik Old Town, Pile Gate, sea-view hotels and restaurants near main tourist streets are the most expensive. Parking near the Old Town can be one of the biggest hidden costs.
Where Dubrovnik is still good value
Lapad, GruΕΎ and accommodation outside the Old Town usually offer better value. Staying slightly away from the centre can save money on hotels and food.
How to avoid overpaying
Book accommodation early, avoid driving into the Old Town area, compare parking costs and use local restaurants away from the main tourist streets.
