Hotel Holiday Reviews

The hotel has a rich history that it proudly flaunts, just in the wrong way. The dining room looks like it was made for the filming of a movie about the 1984 Winter Olympics in Sarajevo, and the rooms also proudly show their age. Every morning I was very surprised when the waiter brought freshly baked eggs from the kitchen as if they came from a fridge. The way the food was served made me suspect that it was simply thrown out to spoil the guests' appetite. Also, 1 of the 4 elevators did not work at all. During my stay, the hotel was fully occupied, meaning it was hosting about 1,000 guests. If each of them paid 100 USD per night, that's a lot of money. My recommendation to the management, which is obviously far away from Sarajevo, is to invest at least a small part of it in renovations.

Being born in the city and left a few years ago, I thought I should stay in the iconic hotel, being famous for nice accommodation. Bit of a let down. Room was clean, shower was leaking in a big puddle, towels are all frayed and shouldn't be used at all. Just very bad. Overall furniture very old, unkept and used. Bit disappointed that the icon of the Sarajevo is fading away.

Very satisfactory and location is pretty good, can find shopping mall & good restaurants nearby

Good location and friendly staff

The hotel is very conspicuous, with a yellow exterior that can be seen from a distance. Although the decoration is old, it is well maintained and you can see its former glory. The service is five-star, and the buffet breakfast has a wide variety of options to meet the needs of different tastes. The room is also very large, with a space dedicated to large suitcases.

It's a very old hotel with old facilities and no mineral water, after all, it was built before 1986. But it's a very good hotel in the city center.

Very cost-effective, staying at 555 yuan/day, picture 2/3, the scenery outside the window

The room facilities are good and the service is good. There is no kettle, but after calling the front desk, the kitchen sent a thermos of boiling water.

It's right in the center and transportation is within walking distance.

Very tired room. The equipment is all old, the air conditioner and hair dryer smell. The hotel has a paid sauna. Free parking for hotel guests.

Excellent ~ perfect ~ influential hotel in Sarajevo. Recommended~

I have been wanting to stay at this hotel for many years and finally did. It was beautiful and the staff was great. I would come back in a heartbeat again.

Really nice, clean hotel in Sarajevo. The location was within walking distance to several restaurants, Public transport, and sights. The AC was nice and cool, the room was clean, and the customer service was excellent. We felt welcomed from the moment we checked in. Would definitely stay here again.

Our stay was very pleasant. Hotel staff was very friendly. Good breakfast, clean room, excellent mattresses. Room to improve: a very poor Wi-Fi, absence of electrical kettle or some source of hot water to have a cup of coffee/tea in the room.
