Sarajevo Hotels with Gym

Our tour group had a planned stay at this hotel and when I read some of the negative reviews here I was concerned. I shouldn’t have worried. The rooms looked brand-new to me. I have no idea if the decor was the latest fashion but it was clean, attractive and everything worked except that the Internet was sometimes slow. There were parties in the restaurant but I never heard the music in my room on the second floor. The location was excellent, convenient to the Old City center. The view from my room included a 16th-century wall and other remains of a caravanserai. Breakfast was the best variety I’ve seen on this trip (that includes 3 previous hotels). There were several varieties of eggs, many vegetables, sweets probably left from dinner the previous night, and coffeemakers with a wide variety of options. Tables were set with linen cloths and napkins. Although this hotel is among the many which had to be rebuilt after the war, it has a fascinating history. It was the first modern hotel built in Sarajevo during the Austro-Hungarian period. Franz Ferdinand, heir to the throne, was to proceed to this hotel after a meeting at the City Hall but was assassinated en route after they chose to go to the hospital to check on an aide-de-camp who was injured in an attempt earlier in the day. Please don’t let the negative reviews scare you away. This is a great hotel.

Almina, Nino and Haris are the heart and soul of this hotel. The kindest, most down to earth people who went out of their way to help me when I left my phone in a taxi in the early hours of the morning. They spent countless hours trying to help me when they had no reason to.I have never received such amazing hospitality like I did at hotel grand. But also being very accomodating and patient with a difficult situation. The hotel should give them a raise because the selfless acts those three did and going out of their way to help guests is what makes a hotel worth staying at. I would come back here if they are still there. Amazing staff. The management team should reward them. It's hard to find workers like them.

I stayed for a weekend in December and I’m so glad I did. The Hotel is near many of the tourist attraktions as Sebilj fountain, Trebeviç mountain and the cable car, the Sacred Heart Cathedral among other places. The staff is genuine and helpful and the Breakfast is great 🙏👌😋 please try the traditional coffee ☕️ it’s 👌😋 The only negative thing was the hard bed and the noice outside because of the trams 🚋
