Hotel Michele

Sarajevo


Behind the exterior of an oversized townhouse, this offbeat hotel welcomes you into a lobby-lounge full of framed portraits, pinned butterflies and elegant fittings. Antique-style elements fill the 12 standard rooms but what has drawn celebrity guests such as Morgan Freeman and Bono are the vast, indulgently furnished apartments. Limited parking available.
