“A decent place to stay”

Hotel Orphee is in Plat, right on the water. The location is very convenient to both the airport, Dubrovnik, and water taxi. The hotel and room are at a basic comfort level - nothing fancy but it was clean. Our balcony had an obstructed (by trees) view of the sea. The best part of the hotel itself is the outdoor pool. The design of the pool against the backdrop of the sea is stunning. Nice pool bar, too. If you have kids, they will love this place. Besides the pool (salt water), they can explore the pebble beaches, watch the fish, swim in the sea and pick up shells. Access to Dubrovnik is very easy. There is a shuttle that picks you up from receiption each morning and brings you back in the afternoon. We also took the cruise to the Islands, and the boat picked us up at the hotel pier. The location is isolated at night. Your evening meal choices are very limited. The hotel bistro closes early. There is an excellent seafood restaurant overlooking the sea. We stayed only 3 nights, so eating there every night was ok. Could pose a problem with a longer stay, though. The daily breakfast was excellent. Receiption service is friendly and helpful. One thing that is a little odd is that the ruins of the previous hotel are right next to the current one. You see a lot of reminders of the war. We really enjoyed our stay. The hotel location on the water was perfect for kids. Keep your expectations modest and you'll like it too!

“Beautiful Grounds”

While the hotel is simple but well kept and clean, the grounds and setting are beautiful! Right on the ocean with a wonderful pool and lovely gardens. Very good breakfast and helpful staff.
