What Dubrovnik costs
Dubrovnik has no single daily total like some cities on this site — the walls ticket alone carries more of the bill than the bed or the meal.
- Hostel
- €15–39 per person
- 3-star hotel
- €35–80 per person
- Main course, restaurant
- €20–30
Croatia is in the eurozone, so there is no currency conversion. Unlike cities on this site with a single 'day without a hostel / day with a hotel' total, Dubrovnik is priced here line by line: the bed and the meal are similar to the rest of Dalmatia, but the walls ticket, €40, alone moves the day's total more than any meal does.
Bed and food, per person
All prices are per person; Croatia needs no currency conversion.
Tickets — the biggest variable line
A walls ticket is €40 in season and €15 from November to March — that gap alone is bigger than the one between a hostel and a hotel. Lokrum with the boat both ways runs €30, the Srđ cable car €30 return or €17 one way, and the Rector's Palace and Sponza €15. The Stradun and Konavle need no ticket.
Transport
One ride is cheaper through the app than paid in cash to the driver.
Three costs this page does not cover
- Tickets to the smaller museums. The Franciscan pharmacy, the Maritime Museum, the Rupe Ethnographic Museum and the synagogue charge separately, off the main list.
- A trip out of town. Cavtat, Konavle, Ston, the Elaphiti and Mljet each have their own transport cost, separate from this one.
- The tourist tax. Paid on the spot, per person per night, and not included in the accommodation price shown.
