Hotel Jezero is the park's own large hotel, set in the forest right beside Entrance 2, with more than two hundred rooms and a score of suites. Its position is the point: you walk to the ticket gates, the Kozjak boat landing and the start of the Upper Lakes routes in minutes, so you can be on the boardwalk at opening time and back for a hot soak at dusk. It is a practical, comfortable base rather than a boutique retreat, with a main restaurant, a lobby bar with terraces and a spa zone that is free for guests.
Location and getting around
Entrance 2, the Lake Kozjak boat landing and the panoramic train stop are a short walk from the door, and a free shuttle runs to the Lička kuća restaurant. Entrance 1, near Veliki Slap, is reached by the park train or a short drive. If you want to see the park at the start and end of the day, when day-trippers have gone, this is the best location of any hotel.
Rooms and facilities
Room types range from attic doubles to standard doubles on the park side, superior doubles on the lake side with a balcony, junior suites and superior suites. The spa zone has a whirlpool and a Finnish sauna and is free for guests, there is a fitness room, and the hotel has electric vehicle charging, free parking and free Wi-Fi. Dogs are welcome. Breakfast is a buffet and the main restaurant offers half and full board; an à la carte restaurant and a lobby bar with lake views give you alternatives.
Good to know
Guests receive an extended park ticket covering their stay, which is a real saving. The park offers winter packages that include a night with breakfast at a lower rate, and the hotel stays open through winter when many guesthouses close, but confirm dates and rates before booking. It is a large property, so quiet-room requests are worth making, and park-side rooms are quieter than rooms near the lobby.
