Stay in the Heart of Zagreb –

One of our top picks in Zagreb.Located between the main pedestrian street and Zagreb's old town close to Ban Jelacic Square, this hotel was refurbished in 2011. Founded in 1827, Hotel Jagerhorn is the city's oldest standing hotel.

The elegantly equipped rooms provide free Wi-Fi internet access. Free secure parking is located nearby.

Guests can enjoy a quiet drink by the fountain, or enjoy the town view from the summer terrace. Ban Jelačić Square is just a 3-minute walk away.

Donji Grad is a great choice for travelers interested in architecture, old-town exploration and museums.

This is our guests' favorite part of Zagreb, according to independent reviews.

This property also has one of the top-rated locations in Zagreb! Guests are happier about it compared to other properties in the area.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.8 for a two-person trip.

Room small, in the roof with only one skylight window, and was almost directly above the hotel cafeteria, which is open till 11 pm. Endless noise of people talking outside - not great after a long flight !!! Also a long way from the carpark to the hotel - had to drag luggage 800 m through the rain on departure ! No restaurant on site even for light meals.
Location very good - can walk to all the main sights and restaurants

My room was above an area where people sat and smoked so was sometimes noisy and smoky. I think it would be worse in the warmer weather. Also the bright lights that came on at night made my room VERY light, I had to wear an eye mask to sleep (which I don’t enjoy). I would not stay in that room again.
