My friends and I travel all over Europe following the mighty Arsenal. When we drew Partizan Belgrade in the Champions League, it seemed a good enough reason to visit the city of Belgrade. We normally book 4 or 5 star hotels, you can still get some great prices if you shop around. We had never rented apartments before, so we didn't really know what to expect. I must say we were pleasantly surprised. There were seven of us traveling and because the two apartments sleep up to 10, it worked out very reasonable to add extra people at €50 a person a night. The maid was friendly and we were able to pre-arrange a convenient time for her to clean. Breakfast was served in the restaurant downstairs. Ok if you love eggs. The location was fine, near good restaurants , bars and shops etc. The apartments are well kitted out and maintained. The people were friendly ( the Red Star supporters especially ) We were brought many drinks by the locals keen to leave a positive impression of their city. You can pre-book a seven seater Merc to collect and return you from the airport for €25 each way. It is a closed currency so take Euros or NEW Dollars. Used Dollars are difficult to shift for some reason. Food everywhere is cheap and of a high standard. If you find an excuse to go to then take it. Also the nightclub barges are a good night out. Have fun !!!!!!!!
