251-Room Sheraton Hotel Opens in Dubrovnik

Starwood has expanded its Sheraton brand to Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast with the opening of the 251-room Sheraton Dubrovnik Riviera Hotel.

The hotel, owned by Hoteli Dubrovacka Rivijera, features a beach, full-service spa and outdoor pool.

“As Starwood’s largest and most global brand, we are thrilled to open our second Sheraton hotel in Croatia, in the historic city of Dubrovnik,” said Dave Marr, Global Brand Leader, Sheraton Hotels & Resorts. “Croatia is a strategically vital market for Starwood, and Sheraton Dubrovnik Riviera Hotel will reinforce the brand’s position as a leader in global travel.”

Sheraton Dubrovnik Riviera Hotel is set on the spectacular Adriatic coast along the Dubrovnik Riviera. The newly constructed property is a short distance from Old Town Dubrovnik, a UNESCO World Heritage site, as well as numerous cultural, historical and natural attractions, including museums and galleries.

Easily accessible from the Dubrovnik airport, the Sheraton Dubrovnik Riviera Hotel boasts 240 guest rooms, including 11 suites with terraces, and provides sweeping views of the secluded bay and mountainous backdrop.

The hotel’s contemporary interior design is inspired by Dubrovnik’s culture and surroundings, including the medieval terracotta rooftops, coral from the Adriatic Sea and traditional Dalmatian filigree jewelry.

With 1,400 square meters of meeting and event space, including a 900 square meter congress room, Sheraton Dubrovnik Riviera Hotel offers one of the largest hotel conference facilities in the region.

The hotel also features a range of leisure facilities including a Shine Spa for Sheraton, fitness centre, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, tennis courts and beach.

“It brings us great pleasure to strengthen our partnership with Hoteli Dubrovacka Rivijera and strategically enter into a prime European tourist destination,” said Michael Wale, President, Starwood Hotels & Resorts, Europe, Africa and Middle East. “Dubrovnik is aptly described as the jewel of the Adriatic, and we look forward to welcoming guests to Sheraton Dubrovnik Riviera Hotel.”

Sheraton Dubrovnik Riviera Hotel joins Starwood’s collection of hotels in Croatia representing three of its lifestyle brands: Sheraton Zagreb Hotel, The Westin Zagreb and Le Méridien Lav in Split.
