Hotel Bitoraj Fužine
About
Legend told as that the first inhabitants of this area, when they looked at the green forests and clear waters from the top of the hill, said: "It will be a paradise"! This exclamation gave the name to the mountain, and the mountain to the hotel and restaurant, which confirms these words in practice every day. Not far from the beautiful Lake Bajer and away from the city crowds and everyday stress, the hotel and restaurant Bitoraj Fužine offers authentic Gorski Kotar cuisine, relaxation in the wellness center and relaxation in rooms categorized with four stars. FAMILY HOTEL OF LONG TRADITION In the heavenly environment of the devil's garden A piece of paradise in the middle of the "Devil's Garden". This could describe the offer of the hotel and restaurant Bitoraj located in Fužine, the most beautiful part of the "green heart of Croatia". Today it is called Gorski kotar, the area that connects coastal Croatia with its continental part. But once this area was known as Hortus diabolicus, a mysterious devil's garden whose snowy peaks were unconquerable for hundreds and thousands of years. " Gorani"( name of inhabitans of Gorski kotar Area) , the inhabitants of this oasis of untouched nature, did not try to conquer it, but to live in accordance with it. This coexistence has created a unique culinary, natural and cultural heritage that can only be experienced in the heavenly environment of the devil’s garden. It is in this place, under the high hill Bitoraj and in the shade of centuries-old mountain forests, that the well-known resting place has been located for almost a century. In the tradition of the first ironworks boarding house Neda, opened back in 1933, the Kauzlarić family has been creating the story of the Bitoraj restaurant and hotel for decades.
