Very nice hotel. Very big well decorated room. Two onsite restaurants with very good food. New large hotel expansion under construction, but wasn't disruptive to our stay.
Good location a few miles from the National Park. Beds were comfortable, and the room was clean. Good dinner restaurant. Nice outdoor pool. Front desk staff and check-in was very good and helpful.
Great rooms, although the spa suites have construction directly or the back of them at the moment, doesn't effect the room in any way except the view. Restaurant was fantastic.
The entire property was immaculate. Rooms were incredibly spacious (including the bathrooms), clean, and so tastefully renovated/decorated. Restaurants on site were also very good. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Excellent location-close to Plitvice for hiking. Loved every minute of our time there!
