The Westin Zagreb
Great bed, sheets and pillows. Endless hot water and really good water pressure. The room is dated and carpeted but clean. Big busy hotel in a nice location in Zagreb. You can walk to everything. We didn’t have breakfast.

Hotel Esplanade Zagreb
We needed two rooms as we are a family of 5. They gave us connecting rooms, it was a great setup. Unlike most hotels the rooms were different, each with its own character. Breakfast was very good. Location as well. Would definitely stay here again.
