Rustic Lodge Plitvice
10/10 Excellent
"Absoluteley cool and beautiful. The rustic lodge ties right in with surounding area .
It is easily located near Plitvice waterfall park.
I totally recommend having your dinner here to, as it was amazing ( done on the outdoor oven )

"We arrived early and the staff were very helpful explaining the hotel's amenities and directions to Plitvice. We were able to leave our luggage and then just pick up key after our park exploration. Liked the MCM feel of the public spaces and our room, while more basic in design, was comfortable and well suited to our stay. Buffet breakfast was included in our stay and had many offerings. Vwry convenient to busstop and #2 park entrance."
"Great location inside the park to stay and walk to the falls. Clean and well
Maintained property, May and Natalie extremely helpful. Highly recommend breakfast and dinner as nothing walkable or close so just an easy way to accommodate seeing the Plitvice falls - we stayed for two nights to accommodate travel and not rushing the experience."
"This was a very quaint place to stay. It was early in the season when we were there. Breakfast was ok for $10.00 euro. The room was very clean and worked well for my daughter and me. "
"Excellent staff, receptionist and restaurant- Lamar is A1. Laxmi is very courteous. Cook staff is very flexible.
TV kept conking out, and AC was not on- we were asked to open the window- and we were right above where the tour buses park. Noisy. Especially when the tour bus is full of Chinese tourists- non stop loud noise. Difficult place to stay when the hotel is full of these buses. "
"We enjoyed the lodge. Very nice new construction.
Unfortunately they were cutting concrete and it was very loud, and the internet was not working.
We also found some of there rules about bringing in food a bit strange. I’ve never seen corkage on food.
The restaurant was good and prices were fair."
"Conveniently located to the National Park.The room was basic but very clean. Very comfortable bed. Updated nice bathroom. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. They also have a restaurant 500 m away. We had breakfast there which was good and we were served in such a warm and friendly way, it was very delightful. Would stay here again and definitely would try their dinner menu next time after we learned that they raise their own animals for the restaurant."
"The location from the National Park Entrance 1 and 2 was about a 30 minute drive but is very close to entrance 3. Entrance 3 has, I believe, no parking charge. We had no problem with locating the residence (B&B) on GPS and the owner was there immediately when we arrived and let us into the room. Breakfast and dinner is served in a separate building next door. The TV had very limited English speaking channels but that is normal for the country.
Breakfast was very good with eggs cooked to order. The buffet selection was fine including croissants (delish), and a selection of hams and salami and homemade cheeses. We also had dinner there. My wife had the whole broiled trout and was excellent. I ordered the pork on skewer and was a little too well done for my taste but that's just me.
The reason for losing a star is the room was not made up the second day. Not sure if we should have asked for this service in advance. That being said, I would definitely recommend this B&B."
