TC-Marko offers very clean, comfortable modern, but basic rooms in a very convenient location to Plitvice National Park at very reasonable rates.
We stayed during the first week of October when the leaves were beginning to change color. The hotel is on the main road out of the park situated on the side of a hill full of apple trees. During the summer there is a great swimming pool.
Breakfast was good with excellent coffee from the espresso machine.
We stayed two nights and ate at the hotel both nights. The food was good, varied, and reasonably priced. What made the dining experience really memorable though was the presence of many local people who were out and live musicians performing in the restaurant.

June 2007. We have just returned from 12 days touring Croatia by car. We stayed in 6 hotels/B&Bs, all prices. This was our favourite. We booked direct [--]. Very reasonable at £26 (280 kunas/42 euros inc tax) per room including breakfast. Lovely location, beautiful countryside/forest views. 15 min drive to Plitvice National Park (the waterfalls are stunning). We stayed in the new lodge up the slope, behind the restaurant. Room 9 was quiet and spotless, with good size bathroom and powerful shower and full size SAT-TV (mainly German channels but one Croatian channel had some English programmes/films with Croatian subtitles). Lovely pool and tennis court. Continental breakfast was served in the covered outdoor terrace of the restaurant. We ate at the restaurant in the evenings too as the choice was huge and food very good. Recommended. So glad we stayed here and not in the (much more expensive but didn't look very nice) accommodation in the National Park itself.

This place is extremely reasonably priced, very cheap compared to the park hotels. It is a fairly short drive to the park so is conveniently located. We had a room next to the restaurant which suffered a bit from road noise so if you are up the hill in the separate building it will be fine. Our room was very clean, comfortable and modern.

This little guest house is located 12 km north of the Plitvice National Park and is recommended. We booked it online prior to our trip in Aug. 05 and were pleasantly surprised at the clean, modern rooms and friendly owners. There are rooms in the same building as the restaurant as well as in a separate guest house located farther back on the property which is a more quiet location. The pool and tennis courts are fantastic and you can rent bicycles too. The restaurant has a great menu and the prices are reasonable. We had room #9 which was very quiet.
