Hotel VIP

Top choice in Sarajevo


Tucked away on a quiet lane in the centre of town, this smart modern block only has a dozen rooms but the ambience, professional service, valet parking and well-provisioned breakfast buffet might have you think you're staying somewhere far ritzier. The bathrooms are excellent, and some rooms have balconies.
