Hotel Almira

Mostar


In a new but traditionally styled building above a large good-value restaurant, Almira uses needlepoint, kilim rugs and traditional metalwork to add a touch of Ottoman atmosphere. Its 16 rooms have neat (if small) modern bathrooms. There are several spacious communal sitting areas including a 2nd-floor balcony with superb views of the old-town towers.
