THE BEST HOSTEL I STAYED IN!! The owner - Igor is incredibly friendly and helpful. He creates a unique atmosphere in this place. You will feel like visiting old friends since the first second you enter the door. Everything is clean and the bed is very comfortable and private. All ladies will appreciate this - THERE IS A MIRROR IN YOUR BUNK BED! I was so happy about this detail. Rooms and bunk beds are spacious and there is enough space for your luggage, small belongings and movement. The common areas are very comfortable - honestly I spent 80% of my stay here because Igor has thousands of stories which you just want to listen to (ask him about helicopter) and also a lot of knowledge to re-brief with you after your walking tours. All of us staying in the hostel we became good friends and I believe is thanks to Igor and his way of managing this hostel. I really want to come back to Sarajevo just to stay here again :D

- Avg. price/night: $19.187.6Scored 7.6GoodRated good· 123 reviewsGot there. Nobody about . Bit of paper telling me to ring a number. Number didn't work. Wandered around the hostel. No sign of life. Had to go and book into a hotel down the road. Complete waste of time and money. Sarajevo is cheap. Just spend 30 euros and stay in a hotel. There are loads if them.
AlunSolo traveler - Avg. price/night: $133.198.9Scored 8.9ExcellentRated excellent· 1,668 reviewsVery friendly staff, great location, delicious breakfast. Safe parking of our car just under our window. Although the hotel is located in the city center, it is very quiet. I warmly recommend this hotel to everybody who travels to Sarajevo.
MártaFamily with young children - 9.6Scored 9.6ExceptionalRated exceptional· 303 reviewsSo, where do I start? I am a backpacker who have been to 84 countries so far and this was one of the best hostels I ever had stayed in. Igor is a really cool host, the place is very friendly, it’s so clean and fresh, perfect location, even a “indoor” balcony where you can sit watch people walk on the street. There’s small mirrors in each bed for your morning routine, there’s small pockets for your important belongings. The bed are comfortable and you create your own space with curtains. Highly recommended!
CamillaSolo traveler - 6.1Scored 6.1PleasantRated pleasant· 985 reviewsGreat location, next to the market area and old city. Also close to the cable railway that takes you up the mountains, great sight. Very cheap. Sufficiently private. Friendly staff, feels quite safe and relaxing. Lots of cheap restaurants nearby, and lovely ones. A bit of noise in the evening which is to be expected in such a lively area, not really a problem and doesn't go on all night.ChiaraSolo traveler
- Avg. price/night: $33.499.0Scored 9.0WonderfulRated wonderful· 1,766 reviewsEverything was great. Especially the price was super cheap and the facilities were excellent. Got locker, got TV, got AC, got towel and the beds were not the bunk beds, they're all single bed. So you won't easily get disturb while sleeping. The toilet and bathroom are inside the room. It feels like a hotel instead of hostel. And miss Amra the receptionist was also very helpful and can speak english very well. And the location was not that far from the old town and other important city attractions.
Wan 'o.D' FakaruddinSolo traveler - Avg. price/night: $58.618.9Scored 8.9ExcellentRated excellent· 485 reviewsI got a double bed instead of a normal bunk bed! The hostel is beautifully decorated. A lot of common spaces, very cozy. Lovely garden, cheap beer, sociable people. Staffs are very friendly.

The staff is exceptional and kind and they offer cheap beer at their own bar. The bathroom is kept clean during the day and the garden is pretty cool (but just too cold during fall and winter). I would recommend this hostel to anyone who wants to meet new people!
