Discover Karlovac with Aminess – our new hotels await you in the city of four rivers

Karlovac was not created by chance. Its ground plan in the shape of a perfect six-pointed star bears witness to Renaissance urban planning and a history that has left a deep mark here. Yet what makes Karlovac special today is not only its architecture, but the fact that the city primarily functions for its people. You won’t encounter mass tourism here. Instead, you’ll meet locals strolling along the four rivers - the Korana, Kupa, Mrežnica and Dobra - enjoying their city with a kind of ease that’s hard to find in larger urban centers.

When thinking about what to visit in Karlovac, start with the Zvijezda, but don’t stop there. Take a walk along the riverbanks, visit Aquatika - the only freshwater aquarium in the region, perfectly integrated into the river landscape - or rent a bike and explore the city’s parks.

Karlovac’s gastronomy is deeply connected to its rivers and its brewing tradition. People go to restaurants here because the food is homemade and authentic, and to cafés because they have a great atmosphere - not because they’re trendy. The aroma of fresh river fish, local specialties and, of course, the iconic Karlovac beer are all part of everyday life.

The riverside promenades are not just backdrops for photos, but places where life actually happens - from summer swimming spots on the Korana to autumn walks beneath golden treetops. Karlovac offers an authentic continental getaway that doesn’t sell an illusion, but a reality that’s genuinely easy to relax into.

When you want to explore Karlovac at your own pace, with a touch of luxury, Aminess Florian & Godler Hotel is the place for you. This hotel brings a modern concept to the very heart of the city, combining a historic setting with top-tier design.

It’s an ideal base for a “holiday without the sea” that is anything but static. Even if the weather isn’t perfect for outdoor activities, the indoor pool allows for swimming and relaxation all year round.

Just steps from the hotel is the famous Foginovo bathing area on the Korana River, where you can meet swans early in the morning and enjoy swimming, rafting, kayaking or canoeing during the day. Beyond water activities, there are countless opportunities for recreation - from cycling and walking to tennis, badminton or street workouts - all within walking distance of the city center.

While Aminess Florian & Godler looks toward the rivers, Aminess Kadoor Hotel is firmly rooted in Karlovac’s urban everyday life. It’s a modern hotel with a traditional character, ideal for those who want to experience the city as it truly is - unpretentious and authentic.

Kadoor is a perfect starting point for a city break that combines culture and regional exploration. Its location allows you to spend the morning at the city market or strolling through the historic Zvijezda, and the afternoon on excursions to nearby old castles or Plitvice Lakes National Park. It’s a modern base for travelers on the move who seek simplicity and comfort without unnecessary complications.

These hotels in Karlovac set a new standard of accommodation that respects the city’s identity while giving you the freedom to experience Karlovac exactly the way you want.

Continental Croatia is increasingly moving beyond being an alternative to the coast and becoming an equal - sometimes even more exciting - travel option. Many have already discovered that Karlovac is not just a place you pass through; it’s a city where you stay. It has its own story, its calming rivers, and people who know how to enjoy the moment.

Whether you’re coming for activities and exploration, history, or simply the desire to discover something new, Karlovac and its new hotels are ready. The question is no longer whether you’ll visit the city of four rivers - but when.
