Hotel Berr is just an exceptional hotel in the heart of Old Town Sarajevo! I really enjoyed my stay here. Location couldn't be better - the hotel is a stone's throw from Pigeon Square (maybe 100 metres at most) and about a 10 minute walk to all of the main attractions in Sarajevo - City Hall, the various mosques scattered throughout the city and the main artery of Old Town (the pedestrian area). There are restaurants, shops, money exchange bureaus (watch out for those with high commission!), cafes and souvenir shops as far as the eye can see. There is no lack to choose from. There is also a medium sized supermarket on the corner across from Pigeon Square, open early and stays open quite late. The yellow fortress is about a 15 minute walk from the hotel and the white fortress is approximately 20-30 minutes uphill on foot. Note that the white fortress is closed indefinitely for restoration but the views of the city from the top of the hill is well worth the walk! The hotel owns 3 buildings - the result of expansion and buy up of other hotels over the years. So your room will be in one of the building adjacent to the main reception areas or it will be in the primary building. This was not at all an issue, but just so guests are aware of it! Note also that there is no lift/elevator in any of the buildings and the stairwells are rather narrow. I travel with only a small backpack, so for me, it wasn't even a concern, but for guests with large/heavy luggage or with mobility issues, be aware that you will need to climb the narrow stairs. Some of the rooms are in an almost ”attic” which might be a problem for some guests. The room was spacious and very clean! Although I was in a single room, there were two twin beds in my room. I believe all rooms have the same setup, regardless of how many guests you are staying in the room. The room was equipped with a desk, a small coffee table, two chairs, a large cabinet to store your luggage and a little electric kettle for boiling water (though no tea or coffee were provided in the room, I would nab instant coffee packets from the breakfast buffet to use the next morning). There were two mugs, a glass water bottle and two glasses. There was no air conditioning in the room, but there was a small fan which was sufficient for my needs. There was a flatscreen tv also in the room with approximately 30 channels available. Mostly local channels, however I was able to find about 5 in English. Some rooms have a mini refrigerator, but mine did not. It would have been a nice perk, but I managed without. The bathroom was very large and ample towels were provided (2 hand towels, 2 massive fluffy bath towels and a bath/floor mat). The bathroom had a large dispenser of hand soap as well as a dispenser of ”shampoo” (it was exactly the same as the hand soap), but I used it on my hair and I didn't have any issues with residue. My only (minor) complaint would be the lack of an enclosed shower (only a very thin shower curtain) wh

Delightful, frictionless, two week stay with everyone in full-service, friendly mode at all times indicating excellent hiring and a genuine interest in customer service. All requests, some challenging we’re addressed and solved with ease and a smile. Location couldn’t be any better situated right up the hill from Pigeon Square in Old Town, one of the more magical places. On earth. That is, I think we’re still on earth.

The Swissotel Sarajevo is truly a world class property. Built recently, the infrastructure is modern and the design sleek. Favorites include the privacy and size of rooms, the high tech lighting and service controls, and efficient valet parking. The spa was an actual spa, rather than a hotel with a jacuzzi calling itself a spa, and we loved our visit to the salt rooms, hammam, sauna, and indoor pool. The panoramic views from the room made us want to stay there all day! The breakfast was included and was also superb. The only downside, which is clearly stated on their website, is that the hotel is dry. I imagine that a cocktail bar and wine room offered to the same standard as the rest of the facilities that do exist would make for a truly exceptional destination. Will stay again!

We stayed here for one night as part of an organised tour in August 2022. The hotel is a small drive out of the old city and the hotel is relatively new. Check-in was relatively quick and you can have some fun on the swings they have in the lobby. There are two stairwells in the hotel, so Reception will tell you which one to take to get to your room. Our room was at the end of the corridor and was nice and large. We had twin beds which were both big and comfy and everything was clean and tidy. Our room had plenty of space, a flatscreen tv, desk and chair and you can also see that the design was made to look as though part of the room had been built on. The bathroom was also large, with a big shower, nice fluffy towels, and plenty of hot water and good water pressure. Breakfast was very good - a good selection of hot and cold food. Plenty of juices, hot drinks and fruit etc. There's a spa and pool that you can use if you want to - we arrived late so just before it closed. The rooftop bar has great panoramic views (see the photo). Overall, I really liked this hotel and so did my friends.

Our tour group had a planned stay at this hotel and when I read some of the negative reviews here I was concerned. I shouldn’t have worried. The rooms looked brand-new to me. I have no idea if the decor was the latest fashion but it was clean, attractive and everything worked except that the Internet was sometimes slow. There were parties in the restaurant but I never heard the music in my room on the second floor. The location was excellent, convenient to the Old City center. The view from my room included a 16th-century wall and other remains of a caravanserai. Breakfast was the best variety I’ve seen on this trip (that includes 3 previous hotels). There were several varieties of eggs, many vegetables, sweets probably left from dinner the previous night, and coffeemakers with a wide variety of options. Tables were set with linen cloths and napkins. Although this hotel is among the many which had to be rebuilt after the war, it has a fascinating history. It was the first modern hotel built in Sarajevo during the Austro-Hungarian period. Franz Ferdinand, heir to the throne, was to proceed to this hotel after a meeting at the City Hall but was assassinated en route after they chose to go to the hospital to check on an aide-de-camp who was injured in an attempt earlier in the day. Please don’t let the negative reviews scare you away. This is a great hotel.

A great little hotel. Staff were friendly and the rooms were clean and comfortable. A major big point is the fact the breakfast were incredible. So much choice, and for me I ate so much I didn't need any lunch. Breakfast was simply amazing. The hotel is situated on a hill so with lugguge I recommend a taxi if traveling from the tram stop. However overall amazing stay
