Dubrovnik

We are staying three nights in Dubrovnik before we travel home in mid August
We want to stay close to the Old Town (easy walking distance)
We would prefer flat area if possible
What are foderites suggestions please
Is "Villa Adriatica" an easy place to get to and from?
Where is it in relation to the Old Town?
Thank you

Yes, as bilboburgler says, it is just outside the southern gate, so it is only a few minutes by foot from the Old Town and the way is basically flat.

It's just outside the Ploce Gate. I guess that's actually to the east - sorry!

If it is flat you are looking for, Dubrovnik is the wrong place to search. The Villa Adriatica, however, is almost at the level of the Ploce Gate, which connects to the main drag of the town, which is level. Almost nothing else in the town fits that description.

As these aging legs found out, just take your time when you want to do your tour around the city walls or visit the Buza Bar.

I thought the Villa Adriatica a very pleasant place to stay (the views of Dubrovnik's Old Town from its terrace are truly lovely!), so maybe you can book something that you can cancel for now and then see if you can arrange to stay there once they are ready to book. Just a thought!
