Getting there

  • From Dubrovnik Airport (DBV): The airport is located 24-30 kilometres from the hotel. Taxis and ride-sharing services (e.g., Bolt) are readily available and offer a direct journey of about 25-30 minutes. For a more budget-friendly option, you can take the airport shuttle bus to the main bus station and then transfer to a local city bus (Line 7) which stops near the hotel.

  • By Car: The hotel is easily accessible by car and offers on-site parking for guests (charges may apply). The drive from the Old Town is approximately 10 minutes, and the hotel is well-signposted.

  • Public Transport: Dubrovnik's public bus system is an excellent way to get around. Bus line 7 connects the Babin Kuk peninsula, where the hotel is located, directly with the Old Town, making it easy to explore the city without needing a car.

  • From the Main Bus Station/Port: If arriving by bus or ferry, the main bus station and port are a short taxi ride away. You can also take a local city bus to the hotel from here.

Visa Information

We highly recommend that all international attendees review their visa requirements and begin the application process early. Visa applications can take time, so applying well in advance is crucial to ensure a smooth travel experience.

Key Points for Conference Attendees:

  • Official Source: For definitive information on visa requirements, please consult the official website of the Croatian Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs (MVEP): mvep.gov.hr/en.

  • Schengen Area: Croatia is a member of the Schengen Area. If you hold a valid Schengen visa from another member state, you may not need a separate Croatian visa. However, you should still verify that your visa type and duration of stay are sufficient for your trip.

  • Application Process: The online application form is available at crovisa.mvep.hr. Please note that completing the online form is the first step; you must still apply in person at the Croatian Embassy or a designated visa application center in your area of residence.

    Conference Invitation Letter: If you require an official letter of invitation to support your visa application, please contact the conference organisers at alpha@profileproductions.co.uk. The conference organisers will only supply an official letter of invitation to attendees who have paid for their conference place.

Important Note: The conference organisers are unable to expedite visa appointments or intervene directly with embassies on behalf of attendees. It is the sole responsibility of the attendee to apply for and follow up on their visa application.
