Dating back to 1925, The Regent Esplanade Zagreb is one of the
most famous and gracious buildings in Zagreb. The hotel has
a long and distinguished history and is famed for its impeccably
high standards of service.
The Hotel Esplanade owes much of its mystique to its proximity to Glavni Kolodvor, the Capital train station, which was a major stop on the Orient Express. Upon com-pletion it was hailed as "a triumph of home architecture & craft".
The Esplanade has always been at the center of social life in Zagreb. More than just a hotel, it is part of the tradition and spirit of the city and a window to the West in its philosophy and lifestyle.
During
the 1960s the Hotel Esplanade had its "golden period"
during which many famous movie stars stayed at the hotel to
shoot motion pictures. The hotel boasts a guest list including
Lawrence Olivier, Vivian Leigh, Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor,
Sophia Loren, Woody Allen, Orson Welles (who has a suite in
the Esplanade named after him) and the members of the Rolling
Stones.
A
magnificent and elegant hotel, the Esplanade offers every comfort
while retaining the charm and splendor of bygone days. Centrally
located, it is only a five minute walk from the business, cultural
and shopping area.
