Dubrovnik Dubrovnik has a remarkable history. An independent, merchant republic for 700 years (abolished by Napoleon in 1806), it traded with Turkey and India in the East (with a consul in Goa, India) and had trade representatives in Africa (in the Cape Verde Islands). It even had diplomatic relations with the English court in the middle ages. (There is a letter from Elizabeth I on display in the City Museum in Dubrovnik). Its status was such that powerful and rich Venice was envious of this Croatian-Slav city.
The old town was completed in the 13th century and remains virtually unchanged to the present day. Tall ramparts surround it and there are only two entrances to the old town which lead to the Stradun, the city's promenade. One of the greatest pleasures for many visitors is to have a drink in one of the nearby cafes and watch the world go by, whilst they themselves are being watched by the city patron, St. Blaise, or Sveti Vlaho as the locals call him. In 1991/2, the Serbs shelled the city causing considerable damage, but thanks to local efforts and international aid, the old town has been restored to its former beauty.

In Dubrovnik, one of the most prominent tourist destinations in the world, a Swedish owned investment company Pervanovo opened a new castle hotel.
Company’s aim is to acquire best located monumental properties in and around Dubrovnik and to renovate them back to their former glory. Pervanovo’s policy is to maintain as much of the original building as possible whilst at the same time refurbishing to the highest possible standard and comfort levels.
The first and the great example is hotel Kazbek. It was constructed in 1573. by one of the Dubrovnik noble families Zamanja as their summer residence. Although designed as place for peace and relaxation history had other plans and the villa passed through various violent ages. Kazbek is now fully renovated to the highest standards and has regained its original beauty and function as a summer residence for guests with high demands in privacy and culture combined with modern facilities.

The only luxury hotel in Dubrovnik's Old Town - a former nobleman's home meticulously restored into an elegant boutique hotel.
It was aristocrats who originally swanned through the halls behind the honey-coloured walls of this splendid building but 300 years later, the Pucic Palace doors have swung open to guests who also prefer a touch of grandeur in their lodgings.
Located on Dubrovnik’s atmospheric main square, the hotel has been traditionally restored with wooden-beamed ceilings, wrought-iron balustrades and lustrous green marble. Corridors are lined with glass cases displaying antiquities, walls are hung with valuable artworks on loan from city museums, and each of the 19 rooms is named after a famous Croatian poet, musician or artist.
