There is nothing more that I can add. This is a five star hotel with a long and glamorous history. We ate in the Bistro: 2 dinners and a breakfast and not only was the food and service excellent, the prices were reasonable.

Nancy

Everything was extraordinary, from the outstanding service of the staff to the exquisite food at Sinfandel Restaurant, this historic place will make you feel like you started to explore the city even while just arriving to the hotel, as it's in fact, a piece of history within the society and social events of this capital city.

Wow! This was an amazing hotel, an old stop on the Orient Express. I expected it to be a little run down, but the building has been beautifully restored with all of the amenities you'd expect in a quality hotel. Rooms are large and very comfortable.

The room we were in on 6th floor the bed was shocking the mattress was 6 inches thick and hard to lay on. We got house keepers to put a topper pad on it. The room is too hot and you can’t control the air conditioning not what I expected in a five star expensive hotel.
Very nice decor and nice bistro. Good checkin and good location to use the public transport system.

“Royal stay in Zagreb”

As I'm a frequent traveler, I noticed that there was no bottle of water in the room, only the cold one in the fridge. However, the reception sent us the bottle as soon as we called them. The hotel is awesome, but it's lacking of a indoor pool (the building is old so it was not possible to build a pool). It would be absolutely the best hotel if it had the indoor pool. Anyway it is just my opinion, not everyone look for it.
First the design of the hotel is fabulous, both interior and exterior. A true architectual gem. Rooms big and cosy. The service and staff were kind and helpful, concierge as well. He recommended and booked for us some pretty nice restaurants. The check in and check out great, very fast. Excellent overall. Hope to come again.

Our room was not serviced until very late in the afternoon. We had to go and sit downstairs while it was cleaned. This was despite putting out the clean my room sign before we went out in the morning. A bit inconvenient when you have been out walking all day and all you want to do is have a rest and shower before you head out for the evening.
Breakfast was very expensive so we ate in local cafes instead
