We loved our stay this hotel. Being so close to Plitvica Lakes National Park allowed us to spend much more time at the park. The staff was really friendly and resourceful. The food at the restaurant delicious

We were recommended to the Etno residences and we were very pleased. The staff and the accomodations were perfect. An onsite restaurant was convenient and the rooms are close to local sites and hikes. Great stay!

Great location just 10 minute walk to the Park. The room was large and extremely clean and comfortable. The staff were very helpful and it is very convenient to have a restaurant on the property. After a long day of driving it was great to just stay there and have a nice meal. The park just cant be missed! Stunning!

We chose Etno Garden mainly for its close proximity to one of the entrances (8-10 mins walk). Having a restaurant on-site makes this very convenient. We ate both dinner and breakfast at the property. It's also located at a good spot for arriving and departing from the Plitvice area. The room was ok. We had some mosquitoes in the room and the ac smelled a bit.

The hotel was very nice and clean. The staff was super friendly, I’ve never experienced such a nice staff in a hotel ever. They were very helping and looking after us so much. Made the whole stay amazing. The top part was the secret entrance to the National Park next to the hotel, super convenient !

The hotel is just outside Plitivice national park and you can actually walk 20 minutes from the hotel and see the largest waterfall without entering the park. The food was incredible. Breakfast is included and the restaurant for dinner was incredible. The staff were incredible Dominique, David and Matteus!!!

We were looking for accommodation near Plitvice Lakes National Park and decided on Etno Garden without knowing anything about the area or the hotel. We were greeted upon arrival by friendly staff who checked us in quickly, showed us an alternate entrance into the park if you have prepaid tickets, helped us to our lovely room and made us feel very welcome. The restaurant had some great dinner options and a very friendly server. We were very happy with our choice and would recommend this hotel to anyone planning to stay in the area.

A lovely, quiet location, close to Plitvice National Park. The staff are very friendly. Food is typical Croatian cuisine. Breakfast is not included in the room price. At 13 euros per person it could maybe be improved. I would recommend the Etno Garden complex as you can walk to the park entrance. Book tickets in advance as they sell out.

Helpfulness of staff was outstanding. Restaurant service was quick and efficient and the food was appetising and quickly served. The accommodation was a bit dark and the ill-fitting curtains barely did their job. In particular, the shower room lighting was dismal.

Really didn’t expect this place to be as nice as it was. We stayed for 2 nights and were in the Veronica build which had recently been renovated. The quality was excellent, with a large modern bathroom, high quality windows, and beautiful hardwood doors. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. We did not check out any other activities so can’t comment on that. The dinner area was like a crowded pub by mountain inn and the food was good quality with lots of local fare including two types of rakiya. The only sad spot was the office which is a hodge lodge of pamphlets and items for sale but only the receptionist spends time there. Importantly it is a 5 minute walk to the very quiet and under used Entrance 3 to Plitvice Park. Absolutely can’t go wrong!!

As I told the receptionist when I was leaving, for an exclusive so to speak, and not cheap accommodation, I would expect that the room will be cleaned and the bed will be arranged even if the sheets will not be changed. The didn’t enter the room in the period we stayed there. They charged for each day 20 euro for cleaning after the small dog we had but they didn’t clean at all. So why charge for each day ? Other than that the place was decent and the location good! The staff was very nice
