I am not sure where to begin! First of all, the small boutique hotel is so so darling. Perfectly boho AND incredibly comfortable and so accommodating. The location is perfect. John and his wife are beyond helpful and kind to make sure our stay was perfect. We met the owner-he too was amazing. To add to everything else that is in your room - a small cool kitchen armoire, a really comfy bed, lovely robes and slippers, etc, they are installing washers and dryers on the ground floor. WOW is what you will say after staying here!! Thank you Byron for helping us end our Croatian trip on such a high note!

Staying at The Byron quite simply is the best choice in The old town of Dubrovnik. Communication from Jon beforehand then arriving at the store KAWA and being escorted through the town while he pointed out things of interest was a huge plus. From the moment you walk through the incredible old front door and walk up the stairways you feel like you are entering somewhere special, beautiful beams, whitewashed walls, music playing very softly in the background… I was elated that I had stumbled across it while searching for somewhere to stay. I was in the Cathedral room, It felt like I had my own apartment. Very spacious room, huge French bed and furniture with a cute table and two chairs under the window made you want to sit peacefully before venturing out for the day. An incredible hand made unit which concealed a fridge, sink and cooking facilities, not forgetting the beautifully tiled and designed bathroom with Molton Brown toiletries completed the stay. There is no ‘hotel reception’ however you have Jon’s number should you need anything and it only added to my experience that I felt I owned such an amazing place right in the middle of Dubrovnik. The location is minutes away from the bars, restaurants and harbour. The plus for me staying here was being able to walk 40 seconds outside to a secret hole in the city wall onto platforms from which you can swim. Beach towels were available in the rooms. Dubrovnik was beautiful. Walking the walls is a must! There was a bar half way along with an incredible view to sit and contemplate life which was fabulous just before the sun dropped. Breakfast overlooking the water at Gradska Kavana Arsenal was a delight and so reasonable. Great vegetarian food at Soul Kitchen, a 35 minute walk to a quiet secret beach Sveti Jakov with views of the old town and rounded off by watching the sunset first at the fortress and then on the platforms at Buza bar all make me want to return and for longer… The Byron would without doubt be my first choice of places to stay.
