Luggage storage in Dubrovnik: Old Town, Gruž bus station, port and Lapad
Checked out at 10 and flying at 9 in the evening? Here is every luggage option we could confirm for 2026, by area, with the hours that matter.
Short answer
The official left luggage is at the Gruž main bus station, open 06:30 to 22:00 at 1 EUR per bag per hour, next to the ferry port. For a full day, app networks (Stasher, Bounce, Radical Storage) are cheaper at roughly 1.49 to 3.90 EUR per bag per day, with spots by the Old Town, Gruž and Lapad. We could not confirm any left luggage at Dubrovnik Airport, so drop your bags in town.
Official left luggage: Gruž main bus station
Bus station left luggage (garderoba)
- Hours:
- 06:30 - 22:00
- Price:
- Per hour 01.00 €
- Liability:
- Up to 66,36 EUR value of luggage
- Address:
- Obale pape Ivana Pavla II 44A
Staffed room inside the main bus station, where the airport shuttle ends and a short walk from the ferry and cruise quay. Priced per hour, so it suits a few hours before a bus or ferry; for a whole day an app spot costs less. Valuables are only covered to a low amount, so keep them with you.
Is there left luggage at Dubrovnik Airport?
- We could not confirm any left-luggage office or lockers at Dubrovnik Airport for 2026: the airport's own services list does not include one, and Bounce says it has no store there.
- Store bags in town instead, ideally where the airport shuttle picks you up: the Gruž bus station or the Cable Car stop above the Old Town.
- Then ride the shuttle out with your bags; one suitcase is included in the ticket.
Near the Old Town (Ploče and Pile)
The Old Town itself is stairs and stone lanes, so most people drop bags just outside the gates.
Pitospora at the Cable Car stop
- Address:
- Ul. Kralja Petra Krešimira IV. 5 (Platanus office at the Cable Car stop)
- Takes:
- Small backpacks up to large suitcases and bulky items
- Price and hours:
- Not published online; ask on the spot or by email
The handiest drop if you leave on the airport shuttle: the bus to the airport stops right outside.

Which one for your day
- Checkout at 10, flight in the evening: leave bags at the Cable Car stop or the Gruž bus station, where the airport shuttle picks up, and check the shop's closing time is after your pickup time.
- Ferry or bus from Gruž in the evening: the bus station left luggage is open until 22:00 and is a few minutes' walk from the ferry quay; for a whole day, an app spot near the station is usually cheaper.
- Cruise passengers at Gruž: bags can go to the bus station left luggage or an app spot near the port, then the city bus or a taxi to the Old Town.
- A day on Lokrum: the official boat leaves from the Old Town port (Luža), so drop bags on the Ploče side or by St. Ignatius first; the Lokrum ticket office is open 08:00 to 17:00.
- Leaving before 06:30 or after 22:00: pick a 24-hour app spot (Ploče Iza Grada or Uvala Lapad on Radical Storage) or ask your host.
Good to know
Do the per-hour maths
At 1 EUR per bag per hour, the bus station left luggage is cheapest for a short wait. For more than about four hours, an app spot at a daily price usually costs less.
Check the closing time, not just the price
Several app spots close at 15:00 or 16:00. If your ferry or shuttle is in the evening, filter for spots open late or 24 hours before you book.
Staying up the Old Town steps?
A porter service can meet you at the gate and carry bags to the door, which September 2026 reviewers call worth it on the stairs.

What we left out, and why
- Dubrovnik Travel Corner at Gruž port: its website now shows an unrelated gambling page and no 2026 evidence was found.
- TIC Stradun luggage room and the internet café by Pile: only 2017 to 2019 forum posts.
- Main Street Luggage Storage near Pile and Prtljaga Dubrovnik (Ulica od Puča): no 2026 evidence read today.
- LuggageHero: 2026 prices shown (from €1.49 per hour, €4.90 per day from day two, €1.99 fee) but no Dubrovnik location visible.
- Qeepl and Vertoe: aggregator pages without a concrete Dubrovnik spot we could read.
- The single Bounce spot 'Along Obala Stjepana Radića': its address (Gruž) and its reviews (Ploče side) disagree and its hours are blank.
- Cash-only claims for Baggage & Smile and exact porter prices: not confirmed today.
