Very Good

This property is very closed to Zagreb Central Railway Station where there is a small shopping center. The Central Bus Station is walkable, around 17 minutes. You can also walk to Ban Josip Jelacic Square where is the Centre of the Lower Town. The hotel is in a good location.
Comfortable hotel centrally located to The Main Square and sites as well Train and Bus stations.

Liked: Cleanliness
Lovely hotel, clean, and staff on the whole are very helpful. Breakfast was fantastic, plenty good selections. Hotel is in an ideal location.
My room was unfortunately at the front of the hotel, the weather during my stay at the end of Sept was beautiful with temperatures in mid 20s. The sun shone in the windows from early morning to early evening, when I returned each evening it was like walking into an oven. The aircon was apparently turned off in Sept as it was deemed not necessary.
Additionally, the tramline runs in front of the hotel so sleep was interrupted by noisy trams which seem to run from 5am to midnight.
The staff were soo friendly and helpful. My TV stopped working one evening and they fixed this really quickly, the staff were super approachable :) the breakfast was absolutely amazing, really delicious and a big variety of food available. There was no coffee machine/ kettle in the room but there was a hot drinks machine in the breakfast room. The shower was great, bed was comfy and room was spacious. Aircon worked really well too! Would recommend this property if coming to Zagreb, the location is great and I would definitely stay here again if I return :)
The room is very clean and comfortable and the Cohen free breakfast. Both days was terrific. I’d recommend it for anybody who is looking to be economical and have a wonderful place to stay.
Great location. Friendly staff. Clean and the Breakfest was great. Would highly recommend

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Good position opposite the railway station but our room was very basic, more like a hostel and needed updating.
Breakfast was adequate with fruit, breads, cold meats etc and a basic cooked breakfast of eggs, bacon etc.
The bar was open only from 8 am to 2 pm and there was nowhere to sit apart from a small settee in reception.
