Hotel Degenija, Plitvice Lakes
Modern property near Plitvice Lakes National Park with an on-site restaurant and seasonal outdoor pool
We only stayed here one night but it was a great hotel with nice amenities
For an isolated place this was a gem. I was expecting some basis hotel but this was good. I wish we had spent longer there.
Nice room in the house!
Ideal location, very friendly staff
was a great place to stay.
