Hotel Kurija Janković
A restored 19th-century mansion at budget-hotel prices
About this hotel
The building does most of the work here. Kurija Jankovic is a restored 19th-century mansion, and the rooms inside keep a laid-back, unfussy character rather than trying to be grand. Breakfast is included and served on site, and the property runs its own restaurant and cafe bar, which counts for a lot in a county where kitchens outside the centre shut early. Parking is free and sits at the door, so the car stays close for day trips towards Papuk Nature Park or east along the Drava plain. The City Museum of Virovitica, housed inside Pejacevic Castle, is a short ride away, and the centre of town is close enough for an evening out. Air conditioning covers the hot Slavonian summer, and both pets and children are accepted without fuss.
- Restored 19th-century mansion
- On-site restaurant and cafe bar
- Free breakfast and parking
- Pet-friendly and kid-friendly
Our take
Hotel Kurija Janković sits in a restored 19th-century mansion, and its 9.4 score from 186 reviews is far above what its single star suggests. Laid-back rooms, a restaurant and a cafe bar are on site, with free breakfast, free Wi-Fi, free parking and air conditioning included, and both pets and children are welcome. The City Museum of Virovitica, inside Pejačević Castle, is a short ride away. I would book it for a characterful, good-value stop.
- ✓Eat in at least once, because the on-site restaurant and cafe bar save a drive when everything else closes early.
- ✓Take the free parking seriously and use the car for Papuk Nature Park, which is the region's best day out.
- ✓Ask about the mansion rooms when you book, since the character of the building is the whole reason to stay here.
