About this place Hotel Kandilj Sarajevo - Old town

Hotel Kandilj is a small mainstream hotel at Bistrik potok 4, on the south side of the Miljacka in Sarajevo's old town. Baščaršija, the Ottoman bazaar, is a few minutes' walk across the river, so most sights are reachable on foot. Google reviewers rate it 4.7 from about 240 reviews. It's an ordinary city hotel, not an LGBTQ+ venue, and we have no information on how it handles same-sex couples beyond the usual booking platforms. Sarajevo has no gay bar, so plan nights around events rather than a district.

The hotel is within walking distance of all of Sarajevo's attractions. There are also supermarkets, parking, a playground, etc. nearby. It was more than comfortable for our 3-day holiday in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The staff, both at reception and in the kitchen, were very helpful. I definitely recommend this hotel if you're staying in Sarajevo. The hotel is within walking distance of all of Sarajevo's attractions.

Overall amazing, authentic experience! A lovely, homey small hotel close to Baščaršija and everything. Wonderful, extremely helpful and accommodating staff. If you can, enjoy the hotel’s private courtyard - it is absolutely stunning and you will feel like you are staying in a private home. The staff are not only helpful, they are extremely friendly, knowledgeable and make you feel like a part of the family. Definitely will return!

A small and charming boutique hotel in the heart of the city. We went as two families and were very pleased. The hotel staff are extremely helpful and attentive. The rooms aren't very large, but that's not a big deal since we were only staying overnight. A mini-fridge is available. There's a breakfast area downstairs. You're in the city center as soon as you step out of the hotel. Everything is within walking distance. I highly recommend it.

We stayed three nights at this basic, clean and cosy hotel. The breakfast was ok. We stayed in a very clean and pitoresque room. We loved it. I would definetly recommend this hotel.
