About
Rooms Villa Amfora Dubrovnik
Rooms Villa Amfora Dubrovnik sits on Obala Stjepana Radica, a short walk from the ferry terminal and the intercity bus station in Gruz. It is not in the old town, but it is well placed for arriving by ferry or bus, and a local bus runs to Pile Gate. The property includes a restaurant and bar, plus a snack bar, and offers a paid airport shuttle and luggage storage.
The guesthouse is rated 8.4 out of 10 from 648 reviews, with staff scoring particularly high at 9.7. Rooms are simple but come with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, and free toiletries. Some guests mention a shared kitchen for self-catering. The restaurant attached gets mixed feedback — praised for breakfast but called over-priced by one guest.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Exceptional staff — Guests repeatedly highlight the friendliness and helpfulness of the team, from sorting out motorcycle parking issues to returning forgotten belongings and arranging early-morning ferry departures.
- Unbeatable location for transport links — A short walk from Gruz Harbor and the main bus station, with the local bus to Pile Gate just across the road. This makes it a practical base for ferry and bus travellers.
- Breakfast with local touches — The attached restaurant serves a breakfast that guests describe as sensational, with fresh bread, olives, homemade treats, and local specialties.
- Good value for the class — Rooms are described as compact but comfortable, with amenities like fridge, TV, and air conditioning, at a price point that several guests find reasonable.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Restaurant gets mixed reviews — While breakfast is praised, at least one guest calls the restaurant over-priced for what it offers, so consider eating elsewhere for dinner.
- Not in the old town — The guesthouse is in Gruz, a working harbour area, not Dubrovnik's historic centre. You'll need a local bus or a longer walk to reach Pile Gate and the main sights.
- Limited room types — Only a double room is listed, so it may not suit families or groups needing multiple configurations. Cots are available, but confirm availability when booking.
- Strict check-in window — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 22:00, which could be tight if your ferry or bus arrives late in the evening.
