Hotels in Velika Gorica

Chop Old House Hotel is a four-star hotel in Velika Gorica, 4 km from Zagreb airport, and I would recommend it for families on a flight-linked stay. Family rooms are air-conditioned with a private bathroom, a work desk, a minibar and free Wi-Fi. The on-site restaurant serves European cuisine, with continental, Italian and vegetarian breakfasts. Parking is free; the airport shuttle is paid.

For a family, Dream Hotel is a convenient stop 2 km from Zagreb Airport, with a complimentary airport transfer and a 24-hour reception, which suits an early flight or a late arrival with children. Air-conditioned rooms have minibars, satellite TV and free Wi-Fi, and there is a restaurant, a bistro and parking. Pets are welcome. I would use it as a stopover, since Zagreb's centre is about 15 km away.

I would choose Royal Airport Hotel for a family that needs a calm night close to Zagreb Airport before or after a flight. The hotel is 1.5 km from the terminal in Velika Gorica, and free private parking means a rental car can stay right outside. Rooms are air-conditioned with a minibar and satellite TV, which helps on a short night, and the restaurant and bar cover dinner without a trip into town. A guest score of 8.5 from more than 1,500 reviews supports it.

For a family, Hotel Garden Hill is more a calm stay than a play hotel: air-conditioned rooms have seating areas and flat-screen TVs, and a garden gives some space outdoors. A spa and wellness centre with a hot tub and a sauna is there for the adults, and a restaurant and a bar are on site. Free Wi-Fi and private parking are included. It is 5.7 km from Zagreb Airport, so I would use it around a flight.

I would book Hotel Cool Zagreb Airport for a family with an early flight or a late landing in Zagreb. The hotel is in Velika Gorica, 1.5 km from Zagreb Airport, and it runs an airport shuttle, so there is no need to drag tired children through a long taxi ride. Rooms are spacious and modern with free WiFi and hydro-massage showers, the à-la-carte restaurant and bar cover dinner, and the front desk is open around the clock. A guest score of 8.3 supports the choice.

I would recommend Hotel Phoenix to families who want play space close to Zagreb's airport. The rooms are spacious and air-conditioned, and the hotel has an indoor and outdoor play area, a games room, a hot tub and a family-friendly restaurant with Mediterranean and local dishes. The airport is 9 km away. Guests rate it 8.2 from 423 reviews, which is a solid base of opinions for a three-star hotel.

London Rooms Zagreb Airport is a practical family stop in Velika Gorica, and I would recommend it for early flights or late arrivals. A free shuttle covers the airport run, parking is free and private, and Wi-Fi is free. There is a children's playground, a terrace and an on-site bar. Rooms have a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom, and some have a balcony or patio. It is an airport base, not a holiday resort.

Hotel Garny Pleso is a three-star in Velika Gorica, 2 km from Zagreb Airport, and I would recommend it to families with an early flight or a late landing. Family rooms mean everyone sleeps in one space, the rooms are air-conditioned, and the 24-hour reception handles odd arrival times. Free private parking helps if you are collecting or returning a rental car. Expect a functional stop rather than a holiday hotel, as a guest score of 7.9 suggests.
