This hotel has a board at the entrance that indicates that it is a 4 star hotel. I think management should seriously consider removing the sign as it is not living up to its rating. It is in serious need for refurbishment. When I read previous reviews, I thought they were just exaggerations, but after staying there for a couple... More

This hotel hosted press and international journalists during war in Bosnia, was set to fire couple of times and renovated up today. The bathroom in the room was so dirty, bed was so uncomfortable. I've been told the hotel was elected the worst hotel in Europe recently... However, the location is perfect. Minutes away from the Bazaar and everthing is... More

Pros: the hotel was built for the Olympics in 1984 and was a major target of attacks during the Bosnian War in the 1990's. A movie called "Welcome To Sarajevo" staring Marisa Tomei and Woody Harrelson was filmed here to bring the plight of this forgotten war and acts of genocide back into the forefront of our minds. Tomei and... More

This hotel needs some renovation very badly. It was built for the Olympics in 1984 and you can tell all is authentic from that time. I believe they try to keep it well maintained, but the owner has to invest some money now. Our night stands were scratched and the carpet looked not so clean. It has an atrium in... More

Nice hotel with interesting interior design within. Rooms were quite good and clean and the staff was also kind and helpful. Location is also good because it is only 10 min walking distance from the center of Sarajevo. Food was also very good. I utilized room service a couple of time and it was very close to what I expected.

First time in Sarajevo. What a strange feeling at this hotel. Surreal is a descriptive I would apply. Reminds me of other Soviet era hotels built by western chains (Sheraton, Holiday Inn) A central cavity with glass elevators rising to bizarre circular floors. Only there for a single night. Slept super. Clean room. Excellent breakfast. Fantastic lunch buffet. Late checkout... More
