Fodor's Expert Review The Pucić Palace

Occupying a beautifully restored 17th-century Renaissance-style palace on Gundulić Square, The Pucić Palace stands out for the warm personal service you'll receive; returning here after a busy day in the city really feels like a welcome home. The design is impeccable—think dark wood parquet floors and high wood-beam ceilings, antique furnishings, Italian mosaic-tile bathrooms with freestanding copper tubs, and luxury toiletries. Some rooms have a balcony overlooking the square, offering a perfect vantage point over the morning market, outdoor terraces, and the Jesuit Steps. There are two restaurants on-site: the fine-dining Restaurant Magdalena and the more casual Restaurant Lucijan on Gundulić Square.
