EXCELLENT Based on 113 reviews Posted on Zeljko GarajTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Prekrasna priroda, ljubazno osoblje, prihvatljive cijene, ugodan smještajPosted on HeikoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Zum vierten Mal hier gewesen und dieses Mal sogar ohne in den Park zu gehen - einfach nur weil wir so gerne das Ambiente in der Unterkunft und das leckere Essen genießen! Die beiden Gastgeber sind super herzlich, hilfsbereit und es fühlt sich fast wie Zuhause an. Abendessen und Frühstück sind ein echtes Highlight. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder :)Posted on 수재미Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 주변에 아무런 갈데가 없는 나홀로 호텔입니다 플리트비체는 10분 거리라 가깝습니다 룸 컨디션은 리모델링을 새로 해서 그런지 깨끗했습니다 어이없는건 물을 달라고 했더니 세면대 물 마시면 된다고 하더군요 냉장고에 물 없는 호텔은 처음 보았습니다 저녁 4코스 요리가 괜찮긴 했는데 세번째 닭 요리가 너무 짜 먹을수가 없었네요 아침도 시리얼 몇개 갖다놓고 아침 점심 가격만 20만원이 넘게 나왔습니다 로컬 와인도 형편없었습니다 가성비가 많이 떨어지는 곳입니다 주인분들이 친절하긴 한데 식대가 터무니가 없네요Posted on Eric JurkenikTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Très bien reçu chambre au top diner et petit dejeunner copieux et bon je conseille .Posted on Kevin SmithTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tesla's Gastro House was the perfect choice for our visit to Plitvice National Park! It's located in a peaceful, beautiful valley less than 15 minutes from the park entrance. The hosts were extremely welcoming and attentive. And we'd highly recommend both the breakfasts and dinners--easily the best meals we had on our trip!Posted on Andreas MurrTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 100% top! Tesla’s Gastro House können wir zu 100% empfehlen. Die Liebe zum Detail ist überall sichtbar. Višnja hat uns sehr herzlich empfangen und uns während unseres ganzen Aufenthaltes jeden Wunsch erfüllt. Wir haben ausgezeichnet gegessen - Višnjas Koch- und Backkünste wären ein Kochbuch wert. Der Cheesecake war Extraklasse!!! Tesla’s Gastro House liegt ein bisschen abseits, ist aber mit dem Auto gut erreichbar. Dafür kann man die wunderbare Landschaft und die Ruhe geniessen. Zum Eingang 2 der Plitvicer Seen braucht man ca. 5min. Unser Kroatien-Trip hat hier mit einem ersten Höhepunkt begonnen. Danke Višnja und Davorin!Posted on jeremie sTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Un grand merci a nos hôtes qui ont été chaleureux et bienveillants. Propreté et literie au rendez-vous. Petit déjeuner royal. Je conseille le dîner fait maison accompagné de vin local.Posted on Beda NoraTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Domaćini nevjerojatno ljubazni i susretljivi, odlična kuhinja, sobe jako čiste, ugodne i uredne. Jacuzzi i sauna su prekrasno iskustvo za sebe s pogledom na prirodu.

EXCELLENT Based on 349 reviews Posted on AnaVerified Lugar único con unos anfitriones increibles ☺ Lugar mágico con mucho confort y atendido por sus propios dueños!. ☹ Justo era el cumple de mi marido ese día, lo avisé, y me hubiera gustado que hubieran tenido algún ‘detalle’ como lo han hecho otros alojamientos en otras ocasiones.Posted on KaighnVerified Highly recommend Tesla’s Gastr House. ☺ Great property. The hosts were wonderful. The food was amazing! We enjoyed the hot tub and sauna too!Posted on IvaVerified Exceptional ☺ Wir hatten einen rundum wunderschönen Aufenthalt! Die Lage zum Nationalpark ist ideal, das Haus und die Zimmer sind mit viel Liebe zum Detail gestaltet – charmant, gemütlich und individuell. Die Gastgeber waren ausgesprochen herzlich, offen und aufmerksam, sodass man sich sofort willkommen fühlte. Besonders toll war der Whirlpool mit Blick auf den Park und auch die Sauna haben wir sehr genossen. Das Abendessen, das die Inhaberin selbst für uns gekocht hat, war absolut köstlich – ebenso das reichhaltige Frühstück am nächsten Morgen. Eine wunderbare Unterkunft mit echter Gastfreundschaft – wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!Posted on MatthewVerified Plitvice’s Perfect Place ☺ Located just outside of Plitvice park, this is a boutique hotel that is the outpouring of love of the two hosts. The hotel is small but the level of service is very large! Our room was very comfortable and the common lounge space and bar downstairs was really cute. Optional 4-course dinner (yes!) and very full breakfast is available. Again, the hosts were amazing.Posted on MariaVerified ExceptionalPosted on WeberVerified Parfait, un grand merci ! ☺ Hôtes très accueillants. Superbe maison avec jacuzzi et sauna. Grand jardin. Très proche du parc national des lacs. Possibilité de manger sur place. Nourriture excellente. Petit déjeuner copieux et beaucoup de choix. Je recommande vivement. Un petit bar est aussi disponible.Posted on AlanVerified What every hotel experience should be! ☺ The highlight accommodation of our two week trip to Croatia! The hosts Davorin and Višnja make you feel like family from the moment you arrive. The food makes you feel like mom cooked it. The whole experience is what a hotel should be. Višnja even gave my wife one of her recipes to try at home. Don't think twice about booking this place if you are staying in the area!Posted on AnaVerified ExceptionalPosted on MirellaVerified Exceptional ☺ Nous avons passé une nuit pour visiter les lacs. L'emplacement est idéal, l'endroit est calme et très reposant. Les chambres sont très bien et les lits confortables ! Les propriétaires sont super accessibles et sympathiques et leur cuisine simple mais délicieuse. Merci !Posted on MatthewVerified Great property and wonderful host!! ☺ Everything! Despite our host saying the room was the smallest it was ample for our two night stay. The facilities on offer were perfect - a hot tub and sauna are available to relax in after a day at the nearby national park. Meals are available and whilst we only had a coffee and tea for breakfast the dinner was exceptional! We could only ever manage two courses as portions were large! You could have very reasonably priced drinks (3euros for a glass of house wine!) whenever you wish to and there is a bar / seating area too where we socialised with other guests too. A great two night stay in this beautiful part of Croatia! ☹ Nothing! It was all great!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

EXCELLENT Based on 98 reviews Posted on DavidVerified Charming Stay. Charming hotel with extremely friendly service. Beautiful and modern rooms. Very close to Plitvice national park. Wonderful stay and would definitely return. ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfortPosted on AngelaVerified What a gem this place is. This place is amazing but what makes it really special is the lovely couple that own it. They make you feel so welcome and it feels like they are friends welcoming you into their home. The food is also amazing. Make sure you make dinner reservations and enjoy. You wont be disappointed. ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfortPosted on GuninderVerified Peacefulness ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilitiesPosted on AinaraVerified Great 1 night stay Beautiful place and hostesses. ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfortPosted on StephanieVerified Tesla’s accommodations were absolutely stunning—set on a picturesque hillside with charming, clean, and beautifully decorated spaces. The rooms were lovely: spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully designed. The common areas where breakfast, lunch, and drinks were served were equally inviting, with cozy decor and great outdoor seating perfect for relaxing, playing games, or simply enjoying the view. The spa was a highlight, featuring a hot tub, sauna, and large garage doors that opened to breathtaking scenery. The owners, Visnja and Davorin, were truly wonderful—some of the kindest and most welcoming hosts we’ve ever met. Visnja’s cooking was phenomenal; we had both dinner and breakfast there and were blown away by the quality, service, and warmth they provided. I highly recommend staying here—especially if you’re visiting Plitvice National Park. It’s a beautiful, unforgettable day trip, and this accommodation makes the perfect home base. ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfortPosted on JeffreyVerified Great place and fantastic hosts! Made us feel very welcome. Easy access to the park. Loved everything about Tesla’s. ☺Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilitiesPosted on ChristineVerified Tesla’s Gastro House is a beautiful place! Like new accommodations and amazing hosts. Beautiful property, very close to Plitvice National Park. Four course dinner and very nice breakfast were homemade and delicious. Many extra touches and the hosts go above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. Highly recommend! ☺Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilitiesPosted on JohnVerified Friendly, attentive, and excellent hosts with great amenities and delicious food options. Highly recommended! ☺Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilitiesPosted on PHILLIPVerified expensive meal It was ok experience for the money, but their breakfast and dinner offer was very pricy for the food served. 16euro for the breakfast and 37euro for dinner. Breakfast was basically from packaged foods and dinner was similar way. Not from scratch home made meal. We wanted to experience the local home made food. It said 4 course dinner meal, but it was not worth. ☺Cleanliness, staff & servicePosted on BobVerified Wonderful owners. ☺Staff & serviceVerified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
