This hotel was a pleasant surprise after the long drive to the Plitvice Lakes area. The hotel is clean and the room was very nice. We enjoyed dinner at their restaurant. We weren’t there long enough to enjoy the pool which looked wonderful. We also left early for the park so weren’t able to enjoy the breakfast. This is a great hotel with lots of nice amenities.

We stayed here one night and entered Plitvice park the next day. It was so conveniently close to the park. Our family really enjoyed our short stay there. The layout was perfect for the 4 of us (2 adults, 2 kids). The front office receptionist was amazingly helpful and so kind from the moment we checked in. It truly was the best decision to stay at this hotel!

I stayed here with my 2 teenage sons. Amazing facilities, lovely staff, beautiful restaurant and pool. We used this as our base to explore Plitvice National Park. Staff happy to advise on best way to explore park, etc. Only 7 mins from Entrance 1. Would have stayed here longer if we could. Would highly recommend.
