Sarajevo is absolutely worth visiting! The history, from both the recent and ancient past, is riveting, and the people are very friendly and helpful!
Mostar The Neretva river is fantastic and emerald green. Visiting this town is a must for any European. It is still sleepy, but soon it won't be, so go there now!
Sarajevo Absolutely go toward the stadium to have a look at the immense cemeteries whose graves all report a date of death of 1994. It's absolutely unbelievable!
Haris Youth Hostel in Sarajevo Best hostel in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Hostel & Guest House Bistrik in Sarajevo We're four girls who came to Sarajevo by car, and we were very glad to find this place. It's near the city center, and yet in a very calm neighbourhood. The owners are also very friendly. We'll surely come here when we come to Sarajevo again.
Hostel Enjoy in Sarajevo I have traveled all around Europe, and this was definitely one of the best hostels I've stayed at. Jasmina, the owner, is easily the most kind-hearted woman in Bosnia-Herzegovina. She called us ahead of time and picked us up at the bus station to walk us back to the hostel! She also brought us breakfast in the morning, and made juice and Bosnian coffee for us -- what a great woman! The hostel was very clean, and there was warm water in the shower. Visit Sarajevo, and stay at Hostel Enjoy!
Hostel Miran in Mostar Miran is a perfect host. He give you a lot of information and helps if you need. The location is perfect, three minute by foot from the old bridge and from the bus station. Very good.
Hostel City Center Sarajevo in Sarajevo Friendly, clean, and warm. Relaxed breakfast and great location.
Pansion Lombrelle in Mostar This really is your best choice if staying in Mostar. Its location is excellent, a few minutes' walk to the old bridge, and it's right on top of all the bars and restaurants. However it is quite difficult to find, make sure you ask for directions rather than try to find it yourself (the street is not on most maps). The man who runs it is really friendly and speaks good English. The room is spotlessly clean and very comfortable. It's not actually a hostel, it is more like a hotel. Reasonably priced. A good choice.
Sartour Hostel in Sarajevo Nice and clean, directly in the center, nice staff - always in for a good chat, and pretty informative about conditions and history of the city. I'd like to return some day.
Hostel Ljubicica in Sarajevo Not a typical hostel but the best option in Sarajevo for budget travelers. The rooms are in a variety of houses and apartments around central Sarajevo. They are clean, comfortable, and within walking distance to the Old Turkish Quarter. The Turisticka Agencija Ljubicica that runs the hostel also offers many other services including transport to the suburban bus station for connections to Belgrade. Their Peace and Tolerance Tour of Sarajevo, guided by Sunny, is very good as well.
Hostel Marco Polo in Sarajevo This hostel is actually someone's flat and she has a couple of rooms with bunk beds. The lady is very friendly although her English is basic but you will be ok. The location is great and minutes from the center. The facilities are basic. There are no lockers but the rooms have keys. Personally I find places like this a bit uncomfortable because they are someone's home but you are made to feel welcome. I would have thought being as Bosnia is so cheap there probably are cheaper options if you look but you will have a nice stay if you choose Marco Polo.
Hostel Marin Dvor in Sarajevo Don't do it. We made the reservation, and found the place after a long time. The man at the front desk didn't speak English, and he showed us a room. It looked like a gym locker room. We shook our heads "no" and left.
MD Apartments in Sarajevo excellent, clean place, well priced, very accommodating host who goes out of his way for you. would definitely stay here again.
Hostel Skend Sarajevo in Sarajevo We stayed here for New Years Eve 2004/05. It's simply the best place we ever found on Hostelz.com. Regards to Zumreta, our host. Dalma and Dani.
