Funk Lounge Hostel
There were several restaurants and shops nearby. The room was clean and staff were friendly. I'm not a big fan of the flannel sheets and pillowcases though.

Hotel Esplanade Zagreb
The hotel was amazing. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was delicious and varied. Receptionists and concierge were always available and accommodating. The only thing is the turndown service. They come early and if we are in the room don’t bother coming back again. Never once in ...
