Frankfurt is nice although if you were going to Germany, Berlin would be a much better bet. Frankfurt is the financial capital of Germany, it's a nice city but there's much more to see and do in Berlin. Much better nightlife too and Berlin is also quite a bit cheaper than Frankfurt (and Paris).
Frankfurt I dont' really know much about i've only been to the airport but i'm sure its lots of fun.
Paris is lovely and perfect for a 4 day break - however if your planning to go in the summer beware that July and August are often very cheap as its hot and not particually pleasant as a result many parisians go off on holiday and lots of things are shut.
So i'm guessing i'd say Paris in the colder months and Croatia in the warmer ones - hope that helps...
Frankfurt is a lovely city, but just about the most unsuited to a holiday or break. Berlin, Hamburg or Munich (or even Leipzig) would be far better, but I know Frankfurt is very tempting due to the overwhelming number of flights into it from the UK! It is a good base for setting out to another part of Germany, though. If you're particularly interested in Hessen you could always stay at a Pension on the Rhein close to Frankfurt, visit some other cities like Heidelberg and Bonn, hire bikes, take boat trips, visit the Lorelei, drink loads of beer etc. Depends what kind of holiday you're after
As Wyetry said, Paris in summer isn't ideal... so it depends when you're planning to go, too.
