I had an amazing stay at The Good Place Hostel! From the moment I arrived, Igor, the owner, made me feel incredibly welcome. He’s one of the friendliest hosts I’ve met on my travels — always smiling, helpful, and genuinely cares about his guests. The hostel itself is very clean, organized, and cozy. You can tell that a lot of care goes into maintaining the place. It honestly felt like home, not just because of the comfort, but also because of the warm atmosphere. Everyone staying there connected like a little family, which made the experience even more special. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Sarajevo. Thank you, Igor, for making my stay unforgettable!

Staff were the best, gave us welcome shots and arranged a movie night. Outside area was really cozy. My friend fell in love with a Dutch guest, we were sad to leave the place

Perfect location, incredible view from the window, very clean and modern place with unexpectedly good huge bathroom, and good beds. I booked a bed in shared room without realising it’s a mixed (not female) bedroom, and when arrived - was offered to upgrade my booking to single room for a reasonable price. The workers (or probably owners) were really helpful.

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

Hostel Vagabond in Sarajevo is an absolutely awesome place to stay! Its location is unbeatable, right in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore the main attractions. The facilities are top-notch, with clean, comfortable rooms and great common areas perfect for meeting fellow travelers. What really makes this hostel stand out, though, is the incredibly friendly and helpful staff. They go above and beyond to make sure you feel welcome and offer excellent tips on what to see and do. If you're visiting Sarajevo, I highly recommend staying at Hostel Vagabond – you'll love it! I've been in hostels around the world, but I've never seen a hostel which has more friendly staff than those here! Ivan & Alisa, you guys are awesome

All hostels in Sarajevo

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!
