Esplanade Zagreb Hotel

Lower Town Zagreb|0.46km from Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts

Latest booking 8 hrs ago

We were so looking forward to spending our last night in Croatia at this historic hotel. Upon arrival, we were greeted right away by the concierge, who took our bags and shown to a seat for checking in. Surprisingly, the young girl at reception was abrupt and indifferent, while we did notice that all the other reception clerks were engaged and friendly. We had booked a Superior King Room, and requested an upper floor with a view, but were disappointed to be given a 2nd floor interior room. That said, we certainly understand that not all room requests can be accommodated and the room was quite lovely. Unfortunately, however, there was a wedding reception in the hotel's ballroom that evening, which our room overlooked, and the dance music continued into the early hours of the morning, 3:30am. Other than getting very little sleep that night the room was beautiful, with a large washroom, and a king bed with comfortable pillows. We appreciated the thoughtful addition of glasses (beer, champagne and wine) and a corkscrew. The location was perfect for visiting the charming old town of Zagreb, and we enjoyed a drink at the bar as well as coffee on the lovely terrace the following morning. We didn't have time for breakfast, but it looked wonderful. Our checkout was a much more pleasant experience, with a very friendly reception clerk. I would recommend to anyone wishing to stay at this hotel to ask about events booked in the ballroom, or to insist on an outside view room. Note that we stayed on a Saturday, which would typically be the night for wedding receptions.

Lower Town Zagreb|0.31km from Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts
I don’t understand why this hostel has 8.7 points. 1) Internet is atrocious it doesn’t working in almost all places, specially in the rooms. 2) common areas are small and not comfortable (kitchen, tv room, dinner table). 3) front of the hostel there are bars with loud music so it isn’t possible rest well. 4) Nobody respect rules about Covid situation. The Staff wears the mask near the neck. 5) AC doesn’t work 6) A little and dirty fridge 8) the mattresses are uncomfortable. ****** the following point was the most impressive thing I have seen in a hostel ******* 9) One guy kind of manager of the hostel is very aggressive, disrespectful and not friendly. I saw him almost hit a customer (old man 70 years old, motive problem: one cigarette) and he took him out of the hostel at 01:00 am. This guy attends to the customers almost all day stoned, you don’t know if you are safe in this place. He always is threatening you If he don’t agree with your opinion. I paid two days and Him cancelled me the booking. Also, he wrote in booking.com I didn’t stay in the hostel. Additionally, My experience with this guy was scared as I saw the problem with the customer night before, Next morning he got in my room and he took me out of the hostel. He threatened me saying: I would call friends and them would take you out from here. I don’t recommend this hostel and my tip for all of you try to avoid it for your own security. I really lived very bad experience when I was in Croatia and I think this kind of hostel won’t be appear in TripAdvisor, booking.com, etc.

Hotel Central
4.2/5100 Reviews
Lower Town
The name “Central Hotel” is a bit misleading because the city center is not nearby. It’s perhaps walkable, but the street to the center is not inviting for a stroll. The hotel is across the street from the train station, and next to a city park which looked lovely. The front desk staff recommended a restaurant nearby which was delicious. Our room was oddly configured, with a twin bed at opposite sides of the room reminiscent of a dorm room.
Doma Zagreb Aparthotel

Lower Town
We were overwhelmed with the space, design and comfort of this little home. The hosts were like family from the first minute till we left. The proximity to downtown ( less than 10 min walk) made our visits n dropping home so easy. The big windows brought in the gorgeous sun light in the space. Though in a Main Street, it was utterly quiet. Zagreb is a safe place to visit and a heaven for the foodies and party sceners!! Once you come here, you will always return. Thanks Doma team for all your kindness. ❤️

Lower Town
The location of the hotel is very good. It takes a long time to reach the scenic spots. The entrance is also a parking place. The decoration of the hotel is modern, very good, very large and very tall. But we looked for it according to the order address and was told that it was in a house facing the street, and then the luggage moved downstairs, but the landlord said that she contacted the agent but there was no reply and no contact information for us. In addition, we encountered a thief on the way to the house facing the street. Fortunately, 4 of us found out. The thief went away. It was 3 women. must be careful

The Dots Hostel
4.5/525 Reviews
Lower Town
Good location close to the main square and large shady park. It's a very busy street but this room was on the back side and quiet, they may not even have any rooms on the street side. This was a private room with a double bed and shared bath. Shared bath was small where the sink is but shower is roomy. Always was clean, and shared by only a couple of rooms. Didn't see the dorm rooms. There are also private rooms with private bath offered. At the time of this visit an organized breakfast wasn't offered but cold cereal and fruit was available 24/7 in the common kitchen, and instant coffee 24/7. The espresso machine required a staff member to operate and the desk isn't staffed except during the day generally. There's a sitting area with couch and chair and a dining area with tables and chairs. There was no air conditioner in this room and it was unusually hot in Zagreb during the stay. At night with the windows open it was comfortable, but very warm otherwise in the room during the day. Very nice owners.
