Great hotel, perfect location

We had a fabulous time in Sarajevo and really enjoyed staying at Hotel Central. The staff were friendly and helpful. We had airport transfers both ways and they were excellent - prompt, safe and comfortable. We loved the swimming pool and gym and thought this was a great benefit. Two small gripes are that the room was often very hot which we didn’t find comfortable. And our housekeeping wasn’t very through - we had fresh towels and the bed made but we didn’t get any replacement tea, coffee or cups during our 3 night stay. We didn’t raise this as it wasn’t a huge deal for us but explains why I didn’t give 5/5. We would stay here again and really enjoyed our visit.

As I rated it was a terrible stay overall. It needs upgrading of everything from furniture to pillows etc. It was not as luxurious as the hotel described it. A dusty to a warm room had to open the window overnight. Sleep was no better as it was next to all the pubs in the street. Please it needs an immediate refurbishment. Cheaper hotels nearby with 5-star ambience are better for the value of the money.

Not worth the price

Room is tiny and not well lit, no windows. Found bug in the bathroom. Bed wasn’t comfortable for me. Breakfast was subpar, eggs were cold, limited options. Comparable to a lower quality continental breakfast.

Would look for something better

Very avg 1 night stay, bathrooms had mold on floor, room very dark and 1 small window with no view. Lots of construction and renovation going on in hotel so loud and hard to move around. No parking so have to use public garage down street for around $25euro per night. Decent buffet breakfast was only highlight. Would not spend more than 1 night here

The carpet in the hallway had not been vacuum in a long time and had huge stain on it. In the room, there was spit on the mirror, hair in the shower and sink, and mold in the shower. There was only a sheet or very thin blanket. Walls in the room were damaged and literally fixed with tape…
