The location is perfect, very central, some minutes walking from Bas Carsija. The place is nice and clean, there was free tea and coffee in the reception area. My room had a balkony with a nice view to the city. The reception guy Mido helped me a lot with information about restaurants, touristic spots and public transport in Sarajevo. I really liked the atmosphere there. I will for sure come back.

I had a private room, it was pretty basic but amazing value for what you pay. The staff was absolutely amazing, so nice, responsive over message and so accommodating! It’s a great location, close to everything. I kept extending and they accommodated without any issue. Would absolutely recommend!

The location is prime, strategically very near to the old town maybe just 5 minutes walking distance, and is surrounded by local markets so can buy groceries easily. The host is very friendly and can arrange for temporary luggage storage if required

Exotic Nature Hostel

Sarajevo

Set in Sarajevo and with Sebilj Fountain reachable within 600 metres, Exotic Nature Hostel offers a garden, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi and a shared lounge.

The exotic nature hostel is an excellent place to stay in Sarajevo. The hosts are super nice and helpful , we had a great time with them. They cooked some Egyptian food twice for us and the other guests and when I felt sick they were very caring and gave me some medicine. There is a small kitchen with a fridge, a stove and free bosnian coffee and tea. The bathroom was not always perfectly clean, but fine. There's also a washing machine, working air conditioner, a nice little balcony and a guest lounge. Since the hostel had just opened up when we stayed there, some things were still a bit chaotic and imperfect, for instance, when my friend and I booked on booking, it was supposed to be a two-bedroom apartment, when in reality it were two beds in an 8-bed dorm. We already expected this to be some kind of mistake since it seemed way to cheap to us for an entire apartment, so it was no suprise or problem for us to sleep in the dorm, but we recommed to message the hosts via booking to check if you'll get the accomndation you expect before you book. There are also some other things like that there's no shower curtain but we're sure that the hosts will fix this (and also the mistakes on booking) soon! All in all, the hostel was clean and hygenic, the hosts were very nice and it's perfectly located very close to the old town and center of Sarajevo. We will come again!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

The staff is super friendly and welcoming, Ivan which I guess is the manager does his job perfectly, the environment is chill but at the same time very involving. I’ve been in the hostel a few times because I’ve been volunteering in a place nearby and I can assure it’s the best hostel for backpackers in Sarajevo. Also the position can’t be more central.

So, where do I start? I am a backpacker who have been to 84 countries so far and this was one of the best hostels I ever had stayed in. Igor is a really cool host, the place is very friendly, it’s so clean and fresh, perfect location, even a “indoor” balcony where you can sit watch people walk on the street. There’s small mirrors in each bed for your morning routine, there’s small pockets for your important belongings. The bed are comfortable and you create your own space with curtains. Highly recommended!
