As I rated it was a terrible stay overall. It needs upgrading of everything from furniture to pillows etc. It was not as luxurious as the hotel described it. A dusty to a warm room had to open the window overnight. Sleep was no better as it was next to all the pubs in the street. Please it needs an immediate refurbishment. Cheaper hotels nearby with 5-star ambience are better for the value of the money.

Not worth the price
Room is tiny and not well lit, no windows. Found bug in the bathroom. Bed wasn’t comfortable for me. Breakfast was subpar, eggs were cold, limited options. Comparable to a lower quality continental breakfast.

Would look for something better
Very avg 1 night stay, bathrooms had mold on floor, room very dark and 1 small window with no view. Lots of construction and renovation going on in hotel so loud and hard to move around. No parking so have to use public garage down street for around $25euro per night. Decent buffet breakfast was only highlight. Would not spend more than 1 night here

Great location! A little loud in the evening due to the strip of bars located beside the hotel, but that didn’t bother me. Breakfast is decent, staff is very friendly.

The carpet in the hallway had not been vacuum in a long time and had huge stain on it. In the room, there was spit on the mirror, hair in the shower and sink, and mold in the shower. There was only a sheet or very thin blanket. Walls in the room were damaged and literally fixed with tape…

Bosnia visit June 2024
Hotel is fine. Its clean, comfortable and in an excellent location.
Unfortunately the male staff member at check in was rude and didnt seem very friendly. A second member of staff advised me to book a private transfer to the airport at a cost of 20€ as I was bound to in his words get ripped off if i decided to hail a taxi from the street (this was not how I found taxi drivers in sarajevo, infact I found them to be honest and helpful) . I did however take his advice on this occasion as I had an early flight the next morning. The next morning the airport transfer didnt arrive and the staff member who was very helpful ordered me a replacement through a local airport. Cost to the airport with a local taxi firm 7€.
