Hotels Near Mlinica - Old mill in Rakovica

We chose this hotel because it seemed to have clean facilities, offers dining options and is close to the National Park. It exceeded our expectation in every way. The staff was warm, friendly and welcoming. The room is spacious, clean and bright. Beds were comfortable. The food in the restaurant was excellent. We had a late dinner and an early breakfast there. The hotel is approximately 8-10 away from Entrance 1. This is a great option for anyone looking for an overnight stay with easy access to Plitvice. Hotel has many other facilities, including a pool, which we unfortunately didn't have the time to enjoy.

With no air conditioning, bugs. thin walls and a ceilings, high priced food, and lack of toiletries will all have you wishing you stayed somewhere else. This place advertises air conditioning, which is not accurate. When we arrived our room was quite hot and stuffy. We found they left the window slight open which allowed all kinds of bugs into the room. Gnats were all around the room and in the bathroom, we also found mosquitos, and larger unknown bugs (pictured). Once we closed the window we spent time killing all the insects and after were hot and starting to sweat. So we decided to turn on the air conditioning and leave the room for a bit to allow it to cool. We retuned 15 minutes later to find our room filled with hot air like the heater was running full power, hot hot!! When we verified the thermostat was set to cold we went to the front desk to find out what was going on. We were told they don’t allow the air conditioner to turn on because it gets cool at night. It was only 4pm, so we were expected to sweat it out until then?! Especially since our room was now like an oven. We were advised to just open our window, really?? We decided to leave the property for dinner since the burger downstairs was €28 and the restaurant literally around the corner had one for €13. Our hope was while we were gone the room might cool a little. We came back after sun set, the air outside was cooler, but our room was still very hot. We decided to open the window, even if it meant letting in more bugs, because the room was too hot to sleep in. We opened the window to have the cool air start to come in but now because of the large fire they make by the poolside, the strong smell of the campfire smoke is filling our room. So now our choices are; be uncomfortably hot, or deal with the strong smoke smell and bugs. We decided to leave the window open for a while and it did cool down but we left our clothes in our bags so they did not smell of the campfire because the smell was so strong. We killed many gnats before bed and closed the window to sleep. I ended up waking up a few hours later because it’s too hot to sleep again. So do I go through that all over again or write this review because of my frustration with my overall horrible experience? You can tell which one I did. If you’re a light sleep or like to turn in early, good luck! The thin walls and ceilings will leave you hearing the clunking of feet and opening and closing of doors all around you until everyone has settled in the the night. If you’re a woman and have long hair which is best to condition when showering, don’t expect that here, they only have and all-in-one shampoo and body wash. My overall rating is zero stars, got only a couple hours sleep and left frustrated. Everything about this property could have been overlooked if they would have done what they advertised and allowed us air conditioning. The only positive is this was located next to the falls.

After Plitvice Lakes, stayed in Huistina for one night. It is more like a hotel than a bed and breakfast. The swimming pool is very suitable for the age of elementary school students. Wi-Fi is only available in public areas, but it is also great in the room. I used a bungalow room. When I opened the door, the wood in the room tasted very good. This is the best place to recuperate in a truly famous hotel and relax in the countryside. The boss and the person who works, maybe the family, this lady is definitely your daughter, very friendly, barbecue is really a good choice for dinner. It's really delicious. I really recommend how the French fries taste like this. I drank wine and beer. The wine was a bit sweet and refreshing, which seemed suitable for beginners, parents and women. At night, you can see the stars in the sky. If you spend time walking in the town and looking at the sky, I would like to stay one more night to get back to health. The atmosphere of a secluded, laid-back country town and the people who work with the owner are very friendly. The rooms in the bungalows are particularly cool, do not require air conditioning, and the woody rooms smell good. This is great for family and great for friends. It is strongly recommended that you do not use Jezera or Plitvice. But the TV only broadcasts Croatia and Germany, not English. Breakfast is very simple, as simple as fruit and corn flakes, bread, cheese and yogurt. This is a good place to hang out with family or friends at night, and chat with beer or coffee...The smell of grass and wood behind the village...For reference, there are a lot of Koreans.

We stayed only one night in a tree house (TH04) and would have probably benefited to stay longer. This review is about the logging only. The tree house are amazing. These are duplexes with 2 single beds and a full bath downstairs. A few steps and you get to a full kitchenette with a dishwasher, a sofa and a TV. The main bedroom is upstairs with its own bathroom. Just a tip, let the water run for 4 minutes to get it to hot.

My wife and I stayed two nights here. We were warmly welcomed and shown to our beautiful room on arrival. We didn’t realise they did dinner and so with no other restaurants within walking distance we booked dinner for the evening. Delicious home cooked three courses for €25 per head. After breakfast the next morning we asked the lady for the best route around the lakes. Unbeknown to us you can walk to the lesser known and much less busy entrance 3 in 20 minutes, which was a lot more convenient than driving to entrance 2 or 3. So, all in all we highly recommend staying here as it’s so peaceful, warm and friendly.

The scenic spot is extremely beautiful. It is a self-operated hotel with the same name as the scenic spot. You must wait until two o'clock in the afternoon to check in. You can only eat and drink in the lobby bar. Fortunately, the taste is good and the price is not high. The superior room booked is actually a small suite. It may be the reason for waiting honestly, the big sister at the front desk gave a balcony suite with lake view, beautiful!

Quaint, Friendly and Clean lodge perfect for visit to Plitvice National Park! My husband did a fabulous job picking this lodge for our two night stay. We came in early evening and check in was a breeze. The gentleman at the desk helped us the flight and a half with our luggage. The room was as pictured . Plenty of room for the two of us and our luggage. We appreciated the little fridge to keep our drinks cold. The bathroom had the best shower I’ve had in 5 trips to Europe! The lodge was about 10 minutes from Entrance 2 at Plitvice Lakes. We spent the day at the park and then came back for a nap. Our room was the perfect temp thanks the the AC. The next morning we had a nice breakfast at the lodge before heading out. It was a comfortable stay and the host family was so kind and welcoming! Would highly recommend!

This hotel is nice but is not as advertised. The rooms were pleasant, clean, and had AC which was nice. However, if you do not book through *********** or whatever other hotel website they advertise on, and book through the hotel website you must pay in cash upon arrival. This was news to me when I showed up as the website DOES NOT state this anywhere, and I went through it several times to double check. The owner was adamant that it does in fact state it but when I asked where, he failed to show me. He did not know his own website and said that the manager would contact me. A week later and I am still waiting to be contacted about this. I don't expect to hear anything back from them. When I booked the room, my receipt said that I would be charged half at the time of booking and half the day before check-in but this did not happen. The owner said they don't charge anything so why did the website tell me this? This is absolutely not okay and to make me feel like I was in the wrong for not bringing enough cash with me because I booked through the hotel website is a poor way to treat your visitors. I do not recommend this hotel. Nothing is included, you have to pay extra, in cash, for breakfast and dinner, and the beds a very hard.

Having spent a week travelling around Northern Croatia and staying in a number of 4 Star hotels, this by far was the best and really warrants it’s rating which most of the other hotels we stayed in didn’t. Everything about the hotel was high quality, Staff friendly and professional. Room was spacious and air conditioning was effective. Restaurant and drinks prices were very reasonable. I don’t think there is not a much else in the immediate vicinity but a great place to relax after a day in the Nation Park (30 mins by car).
