Zagreb accommodation - short term apartment rent

In this article we will introduce you to the best way to stay in Zagreb on budget. Finding appropriate accommodation in Zagreb can be a bit tricky as most of the tourists are not aware of all options.

It seems like the majority of tourists visiting Zagreb are young people traveling around Europe, so accommodation in Zagreb, for them, would probably not be an expensive hotel.

Now, if budget is not the issue, then hotels like Sheraton, Palace or Esplanada would probably be a way to go, but with prices starting at €130/night, some of the tourists might consider finding a different solution. Some might go for hostels, of course, where prices are much more affordable (like hostel Lika for instance), but for those of you who are looking for a genuine experience of Zagreb and still want to stay there on low budget - renting a private apartment could just be the best solution.

There are many advantages to private accommodation in Zagreb.

There are many advantages to private accommodation in Zagreb.

First, you get to know local people and the way of life at first hand, your short term "landlord" will always be more than happy to give you tips and tricks on where to go, what to see, where to eat and where to go out at night.

Second, most of them will have no objections of you are coming with a pet (and if they do then just - "fire them" :))

Third, they will offer you free transportation from and to the airport or bus or train station in Zagreb.

Fourth, you will get a chance to experience, first hand, what living in Zagreb looks and "feels" like. This can just not be experienced in a hotel room.

Fifth, your "landlord" will most probably, offer you a bicycle, so you can go sightseeing the upper town, lower town or visit sports-recreational center Jarun or Bundek. It is, probably, the best way to experience Zagreb.

In all proper apartments you will get a cable TV and a fast HiSpeed Internet (WiFi) as well as PC (in case you did not bring your notebook).

And all this will not cost you more than €50 - €60.

Generally speaking, private accommodation would be the best but less known solution for most of the tourists who travel to Zagreb and plan to stay for 5-10 days.
