Esplanade Zagreb Hotel

It's everything you expect and more. Even before you are ushered through the impressive entry doors, the seamless, elegant service begins. Once in the gorgeous art deco lobby, you're invited to sit and sip champagne at check-in. You are escorted to your room and your luggage appears minutes afterwards. Service is seamless and elegant throughout your stay. The rooms are plush, comfortable - truly no detail is overlooked. In-room dining is exquisite; after all, it's from the Michelin star restaurants onsite. || It's my favorite place in the world; wish I could live here.

Old world charm in the centre of Zagreb. My partner and I stayed for the weekend and really enjoyed it. For the price of the room (which is what you’d pay for a cheap hotel in London!), you really do get to experience a luxurious stay. The hotel bar is fantastic and I highly recommend stopping there for a quick drink before and/or after dinner. The service is top notch and the rooms are super, super comfortable. My only tiny complaint is that our room didn’t have a kettle, so I couldn’t make a quick morning cup of tea. However, nothing major.

A Soul-Stirring Musical Experience Attending this concert was an absolute delight—it truly filled my soul. I experienced pure joy from start to finish, immersed in the breathtaking performances of these incredibly talented young musicians. Their professionalism, impeccable execution, and exceptional artistry were evident in every note, making for a performance of the highest quality. I sincerely applaud their dedication and passion, which shone through every piece they played. The concert took place in the stunning venue of the Esplanade Hotel, adding to the magical atmosphere of the evening. I wholeheartedly recommend this concert to everyone—it is an unforgettable experience that no music lover should miss!

The Esplanade Zagreb Hotel offers a luxurious stay with an air of old-world charm. The building is stunning, both inside and out, with beautiful architecture and elegant decor that transports you to another era. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well-equipped, ensuring a comfortable stay. The service is attentive and professional, and the staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The location is excellent, just a short walk from the city center and main attractions. The only drawback is that some areas, like the fitness facilities, feel slightly outdated compared to the rest of the hotel. However, this is a minor issue in an otherwise exceptional experience. A well-deserved 4 stars!

In Croatia for a business event hosted at this hotel, and was lucky enough to stay here too. Regular readers will know I use “faded grandeur” a fair bit to describe big, old hotels in Eastern Europe. But this one really wasn’t faded. The room was a good size, everything worked – there was an ironing board! – and plenty of space to get the laptop out and do work. Ensuite had a shower and a bath – it is doable, hotel room designers. The location was also excellent for seeing a brief bit of Zagreb in the short bit of uncommitted time that I had. And staff were also excellent and incredibly helpful.||Struggling to think of any downsides here; I have given 4 instead of 5 because, while it is lovely, it did just lack a little of the “wow” factor that has set some other places apart. But I would definitely go back!

Couple spent a few days here for Advent. We have stayed here before, but it's been a few years. So happy to be back. This hotel is a timeless classic railroad hotel and it's aging very well. First rate room, bed, bathroom and furnishings. All in proper working order. Front desk staff, housekeeping and concierge all met and exceeded expectations. Breakfast buffet was well presented and had all the offerings one could want or you could always order al a carte. One of the country's best hotels. Can't wait for next year.

Classic hotel with a atmosphere of luxury and prestige. Great breakfast and bar! The room are really big and convenient. The service was pleasant. It was my first time in Zagreb and it was a very good experience.

Absolutely love this hotel! It is where we stay every single time we come to Zagreb and will never stay anywhere else! The staff is incredible, the food and bar are great and rooms are always exceptionally clean. Highly recommend for your stay in Zagreb - the building is also so beautiful and truly a historic landmark.
