Very pleasant place. Staff were always friendly and my room was exactly what I expected.

It was a great location (5 minute walk from city center and great restaurants), comfortable bed, shower and bathroom worked perfectly and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The staff really went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and enjoyed my stay in Sarajevo. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay here again next time. Thanks guys for making my time in Sarajevo so pleasant :)

Cant really complain about anything. There were no unpleasant surprises.

The room accommodation is spacious, well-designed, clean, comfortable, and attentive staff.

The staff was very friendly. We got to hear a little bit of the history of Sarajevo. We were also shown how coffee is made in Sarajevo. Asking for directions was not difficult as the staff was very helpful. He also recommended where to eat local food and drink local beer.

None. Everything is to like in Hotel Kandilj!

A Bosnian gem

The staff were so friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and the rooms were spotless. I stayed here my last night in Sarajevo and regret not staying the whole time. If you want Bosnian hospitality, you won't get much better.

Friendly Rafa, Azer and Lila - because of them we felt like at our own home.<3 Beautiful,clean Hotel

Rafa - Bosnian Lady was such a lovely woman... We talked in Bosnian, Polish and English. She treated us like family. Room was just great. Lots of history on the walls, also the local table clothes, old radio and the lovely buffet with everyday homemade food - we have been stunned! Thank you so much. Obviously I would not forget about Azer and Lila. Guys, you were so great. I wish you all the best, and hope we meet again. Kamil & Magda from Poland (white car).

I would skip this part, as everything was just great. Clean rooms, corridors, and the garden. Looking after you people. Location is amazing. It is very close to Bascarsija. Also, if you want to drink, there is a Sarajevo Brewery 3 minutes walk away and also cable car next to it. Couldn't be better.

Overall, stay in Kandilj Hotel was exceptional, great value for money.

Location of the hotel is just a few minutes walking from the city center, stay in the hotel was cozy with some nice breakfast and the best coffee. What makes this hotel extraordinary is the staff, every single person that works there is very heartwarming and always ready to help.

The best place with the best people in the best city

Lovely, comfortable rooms. Delicious, freshly made breakfast with fantastic coffee. Perfect location - close to everything but very quiet. And the kindest staff you’ll ever meet: they’ll treat you like family (unless you want them to leave you alone, in which case they’ll leave you alone). There’s no reason to stay anywhere else.

had a really fantastic stay and really enjoyed the location of the hotel and the staff

The location was fantastic. It was a 2 minute walk into the old town of Sarajevo. The Staff were super friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good and tasty.

The bed and pillows were a little firm for my liking. But this might be fine for some other people.

nice place close to the city center and still away from city noise, nice room with comfortable beds, very nicely arranged breakfast room with wide choices of breakfast, breakfast was very tasty and bosnian coffee was served in traditional way. Parking is payable, but comes very handy when you are in the city center.

It was a bit hard to find at first it without internet connection, but we have made it :) pillows are a bit big, but still comfortable to sleep. Very friendly staff, ready to help at any time

The stuff is very kind, they even helped us get our suitcases to the room. They also helped us with the parking space although we didn’t reserve it in advance. I really liked the breakfast. The lady in charge for breakfast was also very kind to us. I would definitely stay here again.

Great location, value for money

Very nice guest house! Comfortable, conveniently located and has an old world charm about it. Staff very friendly, helpful and always available. Location is perfect and very close to old town - 5 minutes walk away. Limited parking available, but safe and secure. Rooms are clean, a good size and beds are comfy. Having breakfast is an experience on its own - beautifully decorated area, with traditional seating. Great variety and really tasty food. Traditional doughnuts were hot and fresh! Small outdoor seating area that is perfect for a traditional morning coffee or afternoon break. Overall, great value for money and really enjoyable.

It’s a bit hard to find and driving in Sarajevo is a real challenge! Traffic was horrific, but this is not the guesthouse’s fault.

A little friendly guesthouse. Near to everything but in a quiet area. Nice design inside - I love hotels with a local spirit. Breakfasts are very delicious. Staff deserves 10/10 - they gave as a bottle of wine and sweets as a wedding gift (we got married in Sarajevo). For sure we will come back
