Pros:

Хорошее расположение, дружелюбный персонал, приятные интерьеры

Cons:

Вентилятор кондиционера в комнате нуждается в замене, шум создаваемый им мешал спать. В душевой кабине явно был забит слив и более 3/4 минут душ было принимать нельзя так как переполнялся поддон.
Завтрак скромный, не соответствует цене и классу отеля, шампанское не предлагается, качество продуктов должно быть лучше.

Pros:

Beautiful building with amazing history in a good location

Cons:

It doesn't feel like 5 star in terms of facilities or service. The old building and sense of history can make up for this and no doubt some rooms are spectacular - the superior rooms are smaller with poor air-conditioning esp on top floor

Bel hôtel avec un restaurant très bien noté dans Zagreb
Pros:

Bâtiment du début 20 eme chargé d’histoire et avec du charme.

Cons:

Prestations inégales entre les chambres rénovées du 5eme et celles, datées, du 4eme. Climatisation bruyante.

Great location
Pros:

Great location.
Beautiful modern room with key pads operating climate, lighting and curtains.
The bed was large and extremely comfortable.
There was no kettle in the room, only a coffee machine, but once requested one was brought to the room.
Parking on site.

Cons:

I always feel disappointed when I'm extorted by hotels with excessive parking charges, in this case 50 euro for each day in the underground garage.
I also travel excessively and stay in various types of accommodation and this is the only one that I have come across that are still charging a security deposit of 100 euro per night against your card as well as your hotel cost.
I think they need to look at how some of their choices reflect poor customer care.
