Everything! Amazing attention to detail. Beautiful room, extremely well equipped. Charming and helpful owners. Perfect position close to harbour, cathedral and restaurants.

Behaviour of Klaudia and Clive, the hosts is unforgettable

The breakfast was the best we had on our trip! There was a great selection of foods to choose and everything was so delicious! The location was great - very close to many places to visit. The hosts were so nice and friendly and they were great decorators!! Our room was beautifully updated, the furniture was comfortable (especially the bed!) and the bathroom was so pretty and great to use.

Hosts were amazing, haven’t had better. Rooms clean and stylish. Great location. Local recommendations outstanding. We love The Byron. ❤️

The accommodation is located in the old city, in a very quiet little street, a few steps from the cathedral and close to all sightseeing spots. Our room was immaculate, very comfortable, clear and spacious, very well furnished, nicely decorated. Cleanliness is perfect, the owners pay attention to every detail. Overall service is impressive. The owner met us at Ploce gate to help for the luggage. He also helped for the luggage at Check-out. He recommended very good restaurants and gave very useful information on where to shoot the best pictures. Breakfast was delicious, customised with high quality products (fresh fruit juice,delicious porridge, cereals and fresh fruit salad, tasteful pastries) and served in the room. The owner and his wife are very kind and sympathic persons. In summary, I highly recommend The Byron.

First of all, Clive and Klaudi and their hospitality. They do amazing job of thinking and taking care of all details for our stay in The Byron. Perfect location, fantastic decoration, lovely breakfast... all is really good ❤️😇🦋

Lots of charm and character with all the modern niceties. Plus delightful hosts. Centrally located yet very quiet ( not easy in Dubrovnik).

In old town Dubrovnik, all at your doorstep! Clive and Klaudi were so friendly and couldn’t do enough for us, made us feel at home. Booked us a great dinner and helped us with our bags through old town to a taxi. Beautiful hotel room, super comfortable, great shower! Definitely a must stay when you come to Dubrovnik!

It was such a beautiful room and the location was so perfect. Clive and Klaudi were such wonderful hosts and nothing was too much trouble. It was utterly fantastic- highly recommend.

The Byron is a stunning guest house, perfectly located in the old city. The attention to details (soap/towels/fittings/choice of tea) is very impressive. Add in a brilliant host, and you have a home away from home. Of all of the establishments that we have stayed in, in Croatia, the Byron was by far the best. They have created a sanctuary amidst the crowded city. I highly recommend this as a perfect place to stay in the Old City.

Host Information

The Byron is located just behind the Cathedral in Dubrovnik. The layout is unusual for the old town in that it spreads out laterally rather than being one room per floor. The property was fully renovated between 2016 and 2018 having been in the same family for over 80 years previously. Although Dubrovnik can be busy and full of bustle, The Byron feels like a calm oasis into which you can retreat if you need to take a break from exploring. One of the key considerations when furnishing was the beds, which are large and super comfy. After all, a good nights sleep means you wake refreshed and ready to enjoy your stay in this amazing city.
Over the past few years, we have been lucky enough to meet some wonderful people from all over the world. We love to share our inside views on what to see and where to go. If you are interested in photography we would be happy to share some of our favourite spots and if you wanted to get more out of your camera then why not join us at Dubrovnik Photography Walks for a couple of hours.
The Byron is located on the quiet side of town, between the Cathedral and the Buza beach (which is just 40meters from our front door). Being able to walk to the sea and jump in, without having to go all the way to the main town beach is amazing. Our favourite time to go is between 9-10am in the summer, the sea is calm and warm and it's just you and the locals fishing for lunch.
