The striking building with a steel and glass façade and a spacious terrace will provide guests with an impressive and comfortable urban retreat.

The hotel is part of the larger City Island development, one of the most significant investments in Croatia, stretching across 80,000 sqm of land. When completed, the City Island will accommodate over 15,000 employees and encompass 250,000 sqm of overall space (of which more than half is office space). The project is rapidly becoming a thriving hub of business and commerce in the booming southern district of Zagreb.

– Our collaboration with Accor gives us immense confidence in the success of Pullman Zagreb. This partnership presents a fantastic opportunity to combine our local expertise with Accor's international standards. We are certain that this exceptional hotel, nestled within the ambitious City Island development, will set new benchmarks for hospitality experiences in Croatia – commented Janko Vrgoč, MPPD partner.

The strategic location of Pullman Zagreb positions the hotel as an integral part of the burgeoning business centre within Novi Zagreb, a district south of the Sava River and the historical city centre. This dynamic area houses the Zagreb Fair facilities and the famous Museum of Contemporary Art. It also serves as a base for Croatian businesses and the regional headquarters of international corporations. The hotel's proximity to two shopping malls and the United States embassy adds further appeal to the locale.

With excellent connectivity, guests can easily access Zagreb's historical centre and its iconic landmarks. Moreover, the Zagreb Airport, the largest in Croatia, is a mere 12-minute drive away, making Pullman Zagreb a true gateway to the captivating capital city and beyond.

Besides being a major commercial and financial centre, Zagreb is also developing into a famed tourist destination in Croatia. The city attracts many tourists from Austria, Germany, and Italy who come to explore historical monuments, museums, and art galleries. People in Zagreb have a rich, artistic life including music, theatre and dance. From a youngster's point of view, the city offers a happening nightlife, plenty of bars, restaurants and cafés, and lots of cinemas theatres that screen Hollywood films.

Today, it is the only city in Croatia with a population of over one million. Yet, as the city advances into the new millennium, it has retained its old charisma and welcoming attitude towards foreign visitors.
