The Westin Zagreb is a 349-room, three-and-a-half-pearl hotel in the center of Zagreb near the Mimara Museum. Interiors throughout are well kept, but dated, and rooms lack any wow factor. Those on higher floors offer great city views, and some include amenities like Samsung tablets. The hotel has a restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating, a bar, and a cafe off the lobby, and is geared toward business travelers, the hotel has 13 multifunctional meeting rooms and a ballroom. The health facilities, which include a huge gym, an indoor pool, sauna, and steam rooms, do add a bit of value here, though the hotel is underwhelming for the brand. Travelers seeking to stay a bit closer to Old Town might want to check out the jazzier Hotel Dubrovnik.

Hotel Croatia is a family-run, budget option in downtown Zagreb, with 18 bright rooms that feature air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and mini-fridges. Room decor is a tad generic, the lobby is on the dated side, and there are limited public spaces. There's a good free continental breakfast buffet, and the lobby bar and terrace is open all day, but there’s no other meal service. Located a four-minute walk from the Dr. F. Tudmana tram stop, and just out of walking distance from a number of attractions, the hotel offers good value compared to other nearby properties -- there's also reliable free Wi-Fi, and free secure parking. As an alternative, Hotel Dubrovnik is within easy walking distance of top attractions, and has an in-house American restaurant plus a cafe, but rates are a fair bit higher.

Dating back to 1925, the Esplanade Zagreb Hotel is a historic Zagreb landmark and the best-known hotel in the city. Located within walking distance of the train station, this independent luxury hotel with 208 rooms and suites is the capital’s most opulent place to stay. Rooms, with elegant, classical decor and marble bathrooms, reflect the tony atmosphere found elsewhere, but a few rooms are in need of renovation and show signs of wear. With all its glitz, it actually offers good value for a five-star category hotel with very reasonable room rates. However, it doesn't have a swimming pool, something other nearby five-pearl properties like The Westin Zagreb and Sheraton Zagreb Hotel have, at very similar rates.

Hotel 9, a small upscale boutique property spread over three floors, is located on a busy road across from the main bus station, about a mile from the city center. Built in 2013, the hotel is an architectural and decorative work of art, with lots of glass and shiny surfaces. The 20 stylish rooms, which include smart TVs, minibars, and free Wi-Fi, follow either a white, silver, or gold color scheme (some might find the decor too blingy). Grand Luxury King rooms are spacious with big bathrooms, while Luxury King rooms are much smaller. Hotel 9, with its high-end boutique cachet and free breakfast, delivers good value when compared with other hotels of the same category in the area, but for travelers seeking a more central location, the Arcotel Allegra may be a better choice -- not only for its location but for its extra amenities, such as a restaurant, spa, and wellness center.
