- Hotel Kompas
Quietly situated in the picturesque Lapad Bay and overlooking the azure Adriatic Sea, this luxurious hotel enjoys one of the best positions in Dubrovnik. The city centre with its historical and cultural sights is less than 4 km away and three bus routes take guests within a 10-minute ride to the old town. The airport is at 23 km from the hotel. All guest rooms have modern amenities for a pleasant stay, and most of them include a balcony with stunning sea views. Guests might enjoy the varied dining offer at the hotel, which includes a restaurant and a lounge bar, apart from two chic bars where guests can admire the breath-taking views with a cocktail or a glass of fine wine. Guests can also relax at a wonderful wellness and spa centre with an indoor and an outdoor pool.
We recently stayed at Hotel Kompas for 4 nights for a special wedding anniversary. From the second we arrived everything about it was amazing. The hotel staff couldn’t do enough for you, the views are absolutely out of this world, breakfast was lush so much choice and included iced lattes which made my day! Towels were put on every sunbed in the morning and we had chocolates delivered to our room each evening which was such a nice touch. A special mention to Samuel who looked after us every morning at breakfast, he was lovely and David at the pool bar who made very nice cocktails and brought them to your sunbed. The hotel has happy hour in the afternoon/evening with 20% off cocktails which was great and also live music in the evenings. The hotel is located on sunset beach (beautiful sunsets) and the promenade, the bus stop to Dubrovnik old town is a 5 minute walk and a 10-15 minute journey. The hotel made our first visit to Croatia very special and we will definitely be returning, can’t recommend enough.
With a great sea view from our room balcony, our room was modern, well equiped and comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was well organised and efficient. We used Uber to get around and with the old town about 20 minutes away, value for money was fine. A couple of points to mention though: unusually the hotel did not provide free water, which is very unusual for 4/5 star hotels.
The lifts in the hotel seemed inadequate for a hotel the size of the Kompas. Also did not help that one of the lifts was not working.
Recommended and well worth the stay.
Lovely hotel, really clean great views, fantastic cocktails on the rooftop bar, breakfast excellent as where the pool side snacks, air con in the room was good, bathroom door was broke is the only fault really.
We have just returned from a wonderful week at this beautiful hotel. From the moment you walk through the entrance into the stunning reception, gorgeous views and delicious aroma you are captivated by Dubrovniks beuty. Directly opposite Sunset beach with its miles of Promenade to walk in either direction you are minutes away from shops , bars ,restaurants, supermarkets and delicious ice cream parlors. We went half board and the food delicious, breakfast has everything The evening buffet was a little less to our taste but again good quality. I would have loved some cream or ice cream to make the lovely deserts a little less dry. Food and drink is expensive in dubrovnik ....actually most things are expensive in dubrovnik. There are a couple of supermarkets close by and these are a lot more reasonable. The hotel tap water is safe to drink so take your own cup or bottle and fill up, the bar charges over 5 euros a bottle . Beach shoes are a must if you want swim from the beach or rocks , the sand moves under your feet and the rocks are very slippery. You can buy them everywhere .However the hotel has two very lovely pools, one outdoor really refreshing after beutifull walks along the coast and a heated indoor one But swimming of the rocks in the warm blue sea will be a memory l will cherish.along with the stunning sunsets on sunset beach ! Getting about is easy, there are buses and taxi at the end of the Promenade Dubrovnik old town is half an hour away 2 euros each way. The city is again spectacular and worth the visit.The dubrovnik pass allows you to use buses, walk the wall and enter so many museums and galleries. There are kiosks everywhere selling trips ,we did the 3 Islands and it was a great day , We will definitely return to Croatia there is so much to see and it really is heaven on earth. There are many lovely hotels in laplad but l believe we made the best choice with Hotel Kompass , the position is perfect. Every member of the hotel team was lovely. However lara the resteraunt manager who was always smiling, enjoy curling up and watching Harry Potter.
First class hotel, super friendly & helpful staff. Wonderful room with lovely comfortable bed. Spotlessly clean. Great breakfast, fantastic entertainment in the evenings. Brilliant location, next to sea & minutes walk from restraunts, shops etc We enjoyed our week here, highly recommend this hotel.
