  Maja's Main Square Apartment
A Zagreb Treasure
The apartment is well equipped, has everything you might need, and the location is superb.
When you open the wide double windows fronting... read more Tkalciceva Street just off Jelacic Square, the din begins, polite public noise, and you bring Zagreb within, and then whether by day or evening, you are blessed in equal measure. For then, if it is early morning, you may hear the sounds of the Dolac, as market vendors set up their stalls for the day. Later you might hear the happy murmuring flow of people moving up and down the street.
Whatever the time of day you are in the very heart of Zagreb and you must have lived well to be here in this place. An underground stream, once a river, lies below Tkalciceva Street and a mere stones throw away there is a small street, Krvavi most, a street named after a bridge where pitched battles were fought between residents of Kaptol and Gradec, the ancient towns of Zagreb.
Maja's apartment is a touristic treasure that the hostess shares with the world as the best of hospitable Croatians have always done. And when you close the windows, you have your private world once again, an island of quiet and comfort within a pearl of accommodation. “Zivot je san,” one of the apartment posters reads. “Life is a dream,” and it surely is. Staying here, if only for a night, is like a sojourn in a Georgia O’Keefe painting, safe and simple and secure, within the enfolded petals of a dream.

  You will not find a better location or host in Zagreb. Located right next to the main square of Zagreb, it is just a few minutes walk from the Dolac... read more market, the cathedral, shops, cafes and restaurants. Everything else is a comfortable walking distance away. We were blessed to be here over Christmas, enjoying all the decorations, food stalls, markets and the festive atmosphere. Maja, the host, was in communication with us the moment we booked, giving us updates and useful information along the way. She even provided our family with a Christmas gift, which was a lovely touch.
We couldn’t have asked for anything more.

  Lovely, secure apartment right on the main square and the kilometre long pedestrian walkway full of restaurants and shops.

The apartment is spacious and fully equipped with everything you need, with many thoughtful touches (for example, clean comfortable slippers). The apartment is surprisingly quiet, given its location. Occasionally in the night you will hear revellers coming “home” up the building stairs but the disturbance didn’t last, and cannot detract from all the advantages of this apartment. Maja is a wonderful host - helpful but not obtrusive, and readily available by text through what’s app. Highly recommended!

  This MainSquare apartment in the center of Zagreb is an absolutely perfect location. The apartment is charming and very well equipped. The windows look out on the historic Dolac market... read more which comes alive well before 6 am. You might think the apartment would be noisy but it’s not at all. Zagreb is a lovely city, deserving of several days to properly get to know it. This location is also great as a home base to use to take day trips, not only in Croatia but also to Slovenia, but expect slight delays at border crossing due to traffic. The only downside of Zagreb during my visit was the brutal heat wave which defined my days! Maya is a lovely host and keeps the apartment neat as a pin. I thoroughly enjoyed every moment! I will go again and I hope to be able to stay here again.
