Chateau Jurjevec Hotel  

In Brezane Lekenicke, Lekenik — set on a boardwalk and roughly 38 km from central Zagreb. Close enough for day trips to Zagreb Cathedral, the Museum of Broken Relationships, the Botanical Garden and the Croatian National Theatre.

A chateau-style stay with 24 guestrooms that blend historic charm and modern comforts. Rooms feature heated floors, LCD TVs and private bathrooms with jetted tubs and hairdryers; many include mini-bars, safes, desks, blackout drapes and air-conditioning.

Soak in the indoor pool, unwind in the spa tub or sauna, or book an onsite massage.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property, a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage and tour/ticket assistance make short meetings and events straightforward.

An on-site restaurant and café serve meals and snacks, with a bar/lounge for evening drinks. A complimentary continental breakfast is provided each morning.
