Hotels
Once again a major European tourism destination, Croatia has the best of its hotels on its Adriatic coast. Elsewhere, deluxe hotels are only to be found in Zagreb, plus the Plitvice Lakes tourist area on the border with Bosnia & Herzegovina near Bihac, although the situation is rapidly changing. For further information, contact the Croatian Association of Hoteliers, Vladimira Nazora 3, Opatija (tel/fax: (51) 711 415 or 567; e-mail: huh@ri.tel.hr; website: www.huh.hr). Grading: Hotels in Croatia are now officially graded by the Ministry of Tourism into five categories according to the standard of accommodation: 5-star: Luxury. 4-star: Deluxe. 3-star: First class. 2-star: Moderate. 1-star: Basic and budget. Many hotels are still in the process of upgrading their facilities to match EU standards. For a list of classified hotels, contact the Croatian National Tourist Board (see Contact Addresses section).
