Grožnjan is a jewel of a town with a charm all its own. I could stay here for weeks and never tire of strolling along the cobbled streets and narrow alleyways. There are numerous cats to befriend as well. The only drawback are the crowds, which are enormous during the summer. The best time to visit is in the spring and autumn when the crowds are fewer and the galleries are still open.
Grožnjan was a charming hill-top village in a stunning location. The town is filled with artists selling their products and the village was absolutely gorgeous with stone buildings and streets. We ate at Bistro Artegnana 1798, and the food and service were great. The view towards the ocean was lovely and perfect for your next sunset. Definitely recommend a visit.
Grožnjan is one of the most beautiful villages I've ever seen. Hilltop location with gorgeous view over gentle hills with the sea tempting in the distance. You can hear violins and cellos practising in the day, while you explore the many art and craft shops and talk to the people who made what's in them. The restaurants make their own food, and you will sit on lovely, atmospheric terraces. It should be so touristy but it just isn't. Even at the beginning of August, it was never packed, and visitors here are as laid back and civilised as the hosts. This place is an absolute must-visit.
A beautiful picturesque town with many hidden gems. It's a must: sunset at the square with the view to the seaside or the sunrise and evening at the terrace at aModoMio restaurant, Grožnjan city wall, scrolling the town's labyrinth alleys, cycling La Parenzana route. It's easy to get around on foot. Have some nourishing local food at the Pintur place.

Everything was just perfect. The apartment is beautifully decorated, spacious (Maisonette, incl two bathrooms) and is equipped with everything you could need. The furniture is very unique and tasteful and fits perfectly into the charming town of Groznjan. On top of that, the host Nina is very helpful and supports with recommendations of restaurants in the area. We also received a card for parking freely and closely to the flat and the host helped us with carrying our luggage to the apartment. All in all, we can highly recommend staying there!
Grožnjan
Groznjan is a wonderful old hilltop village dating back many hundreds of years. The apartment is only a few minute's walk from the car parks outside the pedestrianised village. The apartment is not huge but had everything needed for two people staying there. The patio is what really sets this apart though. There are views over the Istrian hills and valleys and it is a perfect spot to sit and relax. Valentina is a fabulous host who made us feel most welcome.

Fantastic location in the heart of upper Istria. Close to wineries, medieval towns and coastal cities. Amazing refurbished farmhouse set in forested hills, with comfortable rooms. Wonderful family-style breakfast included. Anna, Matt and staff have created a lovely, B&B experience to base from while you explore the "Tuscany of Croatia". Dinners available on Wed and Sat and are highly recommended. We loved our dinner with staff and guests.

This was our best stay during this trip in Croitia - the studio is beatiful and the kitchen cupboards are full of useful things that make you feel at home. Hosts are really thoughtful and kind. It's great that the location is not within Groznjan itself as it's much easier to explore the area when you are not located up on a hill. Just a quick ride to the coast as well. There is great breakfast buffet served in a hotel that's 5 mins away by car.

Perfect location to start and finish bike trips in Istria. Parenzana trail close by (well you need to climb to Groznjan). Restaurant on high level, breakfast to start and lunch or dinner after bike trip. Staff were very friendly and were really helpful offering garage to store bikes over the night and late check-out to use shower after bike trip return. We’ll be back again soon. Value for money.

The room was bigger than expected, right in the heart of Grožnjan. Being at the top flor, we had a sea view. It's squeaky clean, has everything you might need during your stay, and the host were very welcoming and nice.

The owner is very kind, ready to help and she even prepared bicycles for us to use. Apartment is new, clean, comfortable, 10 min walk away from Grožnjan. Unfortunately we stayed only one night.
