hotels in Dubrovnik

Fun in the sun is not only exclusive to the summer months – keep your holiday mode switched on through to autumn with a September getaway to Croatia’s stunning Dubrovnik.

Well-seasoned travellers may know that September is the new July – perhaps even better. Not only is the weather still perfect for a getaway, with temperatures sitting within the mid to high 20’s, but the sparser crowds mean that you can truly take in the culture of the city without having to deal with jam-packed tourist hotspots.

Valamar, Croatia’s leading hospitality brand, offers unparalleled service and hotels suitable for all kinds of travellers. With over four different accommodation options situated in Dubrovnik, it is the perfect base to start exploring everything the city has to offer.

Particularly for a city as culturally and historically rich as Dubrovnik, with its famed Old Town being a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the cooler temperatures and lighter crowds mean that visitors can fully immerse themselves, making for the most enriching experience.

From Medieval walls to the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic Sea, Dubrovnik truly has it all. There is no better way to cool down after a long day of exploring the city with a dip in the sea – especially as waters will still be an ideal temperature thanks to the sunshine and warm weather lasting all summer long.
