The Bar/Lounge at Hotel Kompas Dubrovnik

"Completely refurbished in 2015, the lobby and lounge have floor-to-ceiling windows, low furniture and white décor, so nothing interferes with the views of the sparkling sea and sky, while the rooms are done up in restful tones of sisal and cream"

"Though the luxury in guest rooms is elegantly understated (heated floors; L’Occitane bath products), the public spaces aren’t nearly as restrained: massive moon-like lampshades line the boulevard-level breakfast lounge, while a host of cushy ergonomic armchairs can be found scattered throughout the sun-drenched property"
