Hotel Baškuća Sarajevo

A beautifully designed and tastefully furnished boutique hotel right in the heart of the city. Logistically, it couldn’t be in a better location. What makes it even more special is the exceptionally friendly staff, excellent breakfasts, and the wonderful vibe of the surrounding Baščaršija area.

As the hotel was quite full, we ended up with the last available room, which was a little more compact due to the sloping roof. A bit of extra space would have been nice, but it was still a lovely and cosy room.

The location of the hotel is good and close to the main attractions of the old city. However, do not expect easy access to and from the hotel to the attraction areas, as it is on a high hill and you need to walk up and down a steep road. I mention this in case you are traveling with children or elderly people who may struggle with long or steep walks. The breakfast was excellent. There were not many options, but the quality was very high, and the food was truly delicious, staff are amazing and always smiling which is great.

Do not expect a big-brand hotel atmosphere. It is a mid-sized hotel with very good-quality furniture, but the view is not the best, and it is located at a busy intersection, so you should expect some noise, especially since the hotel is only two stories high. The staff are usually very busy because there is only one person at the front desk, so during peak times it can be difficult for them to assist everyone at once, particularly during check-in and check-out, but really they do their best to support and help you when you need assistance.

Great location walkable to Sarajevo. Nice and authentic cozy rooms. Kenan at front desk reception was very helpful, kind and accommodating. Cute restaurant where breakfast was served.

We asked to keep only 2 out of our 3 booked rooms since our family of 2 adults and 4 children could have easily fit into 2 spacious rooms. Property management refused.

Look no further as this is the place to stay in Sarajevo. It is in the Ottoman section of town and within walking distance to everything. We loved the space and attention to detail. It couldn’t have been better.
