The heart of Dubrovnik

Perched on Uz Jezuite steps beside the Jesuit Stairs, The Heart of Dubrovnik sits inside the Old Town walls, a two-minute climb from St Ignatius Church and roughly 300 metres from the Stradun. Suited to travellers who want to walk to everything and skip the taxi to the historic core.

The three-star property occupies a restored stone townhouse, keeping its original vaulted ceilings and narrow staircase rather than retrofitting an elevator. Rooms face either the quiet Jesuit square or the tiled rooftops sloping toward the harbour.

Cable car access to Srđ hill starts a ten-minute walk north, useful for guests avoiding midday stair climbs in summer heat.
