Cheap and cosy accomodations in Sarajevo
The tourist season is almost upon us. Sarajevo is a city that is gaining more and more interest from tourists in the past years. In the last few years, Sarajevo was named one of the top 10 destinations to visit by the recommendations of the Lonely Planet tourist guide. The country itself has been named one of top ten halal destinations and the best destination in National Geographic's Tour of Life 2012.
Along the expensive hotels, there are numerous cheap lodgings, motels, hotels and boarding houses for tourists to stay in.
It seems that, apart from good, cheap food and splendid nightlife, Sarajevo has another quality: unobtrusiveness and the fact that all important events are happening in the area of two to three kilometres.
We have selected accomodations, found near the most attractive locations in the city; most of which are located few minutes from objects in the historic core of the city.
