Hotel Kompas Dubrovnik

This is a great hotel! Beautiful quirky decor and very comfortable beds. Staff could not have been more helpful. Spotlessly clean everywhere. We stayed on a b&b basis and food was good. Fantastic views over the beautiful bay setting. Would definitely recommend!

Just returned from a fantastic week in Lapad, Kompas was amazing, arrived through the back door into reception to be greeted by the most amazing view. Our room wasn't quite ready but they offered us somewhere to change if we wished, however we chose to sit on the balcony of the Zenith Bar and soak in the views. We booked the basic twin room with balcony and was given a high side room facing in land which was very nice (however slightly jealous of the sea view rooms) and the room was huge, clean, quiet (I didn't hear anyone else apart from a rumbling from something being moved upstairs, as we were on the 9th floor and the bar was above us) and had everything you needed. probably one of the best rooms I've stayed in. Breakfast was lovely and lots to choose from, hot and cold, (sausage was a bit weird), staff were friendly and attentive however some of the ladies weren't so. The pool was great with the best views again, it was quiet (maybe for the time of year, not many children) and the staff at the bar were lovely. Lapad area is lovely to walk around with the bay area and the strip of restaurants and bars going left out of the hotel and the coastal walk right with hotels and more restaurants to choose from. Only a short 10 minute walk to the Gruz marina. We walked to the Old City and it took about 35 minutes, however there is a bus stop at the back of the hotel. The Old city is a must you see it on the bus on the way in from the airport and it is amazing to walk round. We did a couple of trips, one to Mostar and the Waterfalls, wouldn't advise that, its was an early morning 07:30 pick up and got back about 18:30 and spent a whole 3 and half hours off the coach, very disappointing and don't believe the guy who's selling it when he says its about 2.5 hours on the coach we fell for that one, another tip if you do go over the boarder into Bosnia....turn off your data!!!, our charges was ridiculous. We also did the 3 Island Cruise which was lovely with food and drinks included. Over all it was a fantastic holiday and I would definitely recommend Kompas.

From the minute you walk in and see the view from the Reception you can not fail to be impressed by the location, a short taxi ride from the old city and with lots of amenities and great restaurants on your doorstep. We had a superior room with balcony on the 3rd floor (try and get a higher level for a better view) which was compact but clean, decent amenities robe, slippers, mini bar, limited bathroom bits, complimentary chocolates every day. The double bed is actually 2 singles pulled together when I asked they put a double mattress over it, still not great or the most comfortable & lumpy pillows but not that bad. Breakfast was decent good choice, an alternative to the 4 kinds of pork sausages would be nice (beef, chicken, veggie?) but overall good and all the staff were very helpful and polite. Having looked around when we were there it was a good choice compared to similar priced places.
