“Excellent choice”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 February 2012

I attended a four-day seminar and stayed at this hotel during the winter storm in Sarajevo. First important thing was that rooms were adequately heated under these extreme weather conditions. The hotel has the best central location in the city, staff are accommodating, no complaints about the food, room was nicely decorated and furnished, though a bit small but had a nice corner window. I stayed at this hotel once before and I know that they also have lovely spacious "rooms" where you climb the wooden stairs to reach your bed, which is on a kind of a balcony. I was quite satisfied with my smaller room now beacuse it would probably be impossible to heat this big space.

“Very good choice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 June 2011

I will be very short - pricewise ok, location very good (3 minutes from the main pedestrian street & some 10 minutes from old historical part of town).

Hotel is newly refurbished, receptionists helpful, food ok, rooms relatively small but also new & modern.

I think this is a good pick.

“Good value, nice hotel. A dishonest cleaner!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 April 2011

We turned up in Sarajevo for two nights with no plan; Hotel Bosnia was the first place we walked into. We were given a very reasonable price for a triple room, which was clean, pleasant and had all the ameneties you could need (except a shower curtain!). Staff were polite if reserved; breakfast was perfectly adequate. The hotel has a nice dining room and patio area outside, used frequently for weddings it would seem. Two minute walk to the pedestrianised quarter, and free parking behind a gate that at least looks secured, although actually it isn't.

The only downside was that having foolishly left my Blackberry in the room, upon ringing up to ask how I might retrieve it, there was no knowledge of it! Presumably a lucky cleaner is out impressing his or her friends with their new acquisition...

Despite this, I would certainly stay again.

“2010, Hotel BOSNIA has 4 stars. The hotel is not worth 4 stars”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2011

The hotel is perfectly situated; it is a five minute walk away from the special, multi-cultural, old, authentic city centre.
It is such a pity that there are still so little tourists visiting this city.
This city is definitely worth a city trip!
At the back of the hotel there are (limited) guarded parking spaces available.
The main thing for us was, to have a guarded parking place!!

The hotel has 4 stars but only gets these for its luxurious entrée!

The rooms are good, but are in desperate need of some redecorating. The carpet is stained, lamps are out of order, etc.
Moreover, during our stay in 2009 and 2010 we came across some cockroaches in our room. This is not what you expect for a 4 star hotel.
The mattresses on the beds are quite hard but fine.

What bugged us the most is the smoking.
People and staff smoke everywhere. As soon as you leave your room you smell the smoke. Even your clean towels smell of smoke!!!!
The same goes for breakfast where there are a lot of people smoking around you.
You can’t find a smoke-free area in the hotel. This is not something you normally see nowadays and definitely not what you expect when booking a 4 star hotel.

In addition the breakfast buffet is horrendous!
Coffee and tea are put in kettles where they have cut the cords off.
It’s already starting to get cold and undrinkable at seven o ‘clock in the morning let alone at ten!
Same goes for the fried eggs and the (already cold) boiled eggs, bread and the sandwich fillings! Not only is everything already cold it has been put in a smoky area for over three hours!

In 2009 we had the same experience with the air conditioning, our room was fixed at 25 C, which is to warm for sleeping.
The first time 2009 we were told it could not be changed. The second and third time we asked about the room temperature the desk staff told us it would be fixed right away, but when we returned to our rooms, the thermostats were still fixed at 25 C. In 2010 it was still the same!!
It is safe to say we haven’t eaten in the hotel.
We didn’t no, if it was possible. We saw only big special groups. In the city there are plenty of more attractive and authentic places you can eat.

But we recommended Sarajevo!
