Royalties’ and celebrities’ love affair with Dubrovnik


Royalties, politicians, writers, artists as well as rock and movie stars had been flocking to Dubrovnik for years and have become the best ambassadors to Croatia and beautiful Dubrovnik.
Love between Dubrovnik and numerous celebrities who visited this stunning city, has always been strong and unbreakable.

Recently, hotel Excelsior has had the pleasure of accommodating some of the greatest actors of all times – Morgan Freeman, Mickey Rourke, Kevin Spacey, Owen Wilson, Woody Harelsson - to mention just a few.

This summer too celebrities cherished their love with the city of Dubrovnik. Jon Bon Jovi, after  an amazing concert in Zagreb, visited Dubrovnik and cruised on his yacht with his family also to the northern part of Croatia . Ashley Judd, who was filming her new TV series 'Missing' in Dubrovnik, fell in love with Dubrovnik as well and  spent her free time enjoying the view from her Excelsior suite.
