Žejane Vacations from $1,306

Zonar Zagreb is a nice hotel. The concept is definitely eclectic and borders on “weird,” but we’re not ones to judge that, and we actually enjoyed that aspect of the hotel. We also really enjoyed the gym, and the bed was comfortable. That said, there were a few hiccups during our stay. Upon arrival, we noticed that the room had only one towel, no bath/shower mat, and there was no conditioner or soap available either in the shower or at the sink. We called reception, and the towel issue was resolved fairly quickly. However, the soap was only provided the following day, despite us arriving around 3 PM, while the conditioner was never provided at all. Another reason we chose this hotel was the pool. Unfortunately, the pool was reserved for a large group from 3 PM to 9 PM on both days of our stay. On top of that, the music from the event continued loudly well beyond those hours. This was disappointing, especially since access to the pool was one of the factors we considered when booking the hotel. The pool water was also extremely cold, as it is not heated, which made it difficult to enjoy even when the pool was available. Overall, we didn't dislike the hotel, particularly the comfortable bed, gym, and unique design, but the room-service oversights and limited pool access significantly affected our experience. As a result, we would hesitate to recommend this hotel. N.B: it is relatively far from Zagreb's historical center but we knew that so that is on us.

The hotel room was tiny and cramped, with hardly any space to place 2 carry-ons and a regular sized suitcase. The bathroom and shower are all glass with zero privacy and the hand wash is tiny. The room decor is weird with a huge poster with 3 guys in their underwear covering the ceiling; not something I want to see right before sleeping and right after waking up! On the exterior, there is no clear marking of the hotel and the area is dilapidated, with run down buildings across the street. Worse, trains run both ways in front of the hotel all day and late in the night, and the noise every few minutes kept us up at night. We complained about the room and the noise at the reception and they did not even care or relocate us to another room.

Clean room, comfortable and lots of space, however we had a complicated check in (may have been on us, but there was confusion) not many amenities and very scary elavator.
