サラエボの旧市街に近い宿

夜遅くにバスターミナルに到着、駅やバスターミナルへの迎えをしてくれるとの事で前日に迎えをお願いしていたが迎えに来ておらず、再度宿に連絡すると料金を払うのでタクシーで来て欲しいとの事でタクシーに乗車して宿に向かう。宿の周りは住宅街で近くにはバス乗り場やスーパー、キオスク又日本大使館や軍の施設、モスクもありました。宿の女性の責任者の方はとてもウェルカム的に迎えてくださり、3泊しましたが滞在中とても親切にして頂きました。又朝食もおいしかったです。派手さはありませんがとてもアットホームな雰囲気で良かったです。

Kandelj Pansion Sarajevo

The staff was very welcoming. Excellent breakfast. The room was quite small, at the attic level with no windows except a small skylight. Also, Hotels.com charged me for a triple room when we only requested a double (even though the hotel had doubles available), for an additional charge of 13 Euros.

Home away from home

This friendly guest house is a short stroll from the Latin Bridge and the delights of Sarajevo's old city. A warm welcome, a basic breakfast, cosy rooms, 24 reception - I wouldn't hesitate to reccomend Kandilj, or to stay their again. I would suggest that you request a ground floor if you can't handle stairs as there is no lift.

A clean and friendly hotel with 24 hour reception right next to the old town. A great base for exploring Sarajevo and felt very safe and secure. The only draw back was the lack of parking - we had to pay to park our car in one of the central car parks in town.

Convienently located but found it uncomfortable

The guesthouse is very conveniently located in the old part of the city. The staff, also, was very nice and friendly. However, our room was extremely uncomfortable. There were probably dust mites in our bed because I could not stop scratching myself when I was in the bed and had to ask for a change of sheets the next day. The room was awkwardly shaped, leaving little room to walk through it once our luggage was inside. It's a quaint place but I wasn't very comfortable and I don't think I would stay there again.

Superzentral, freundlich, sauber

Das Guesthourse ist extrem zentral gelegen und dennoch ruhig; das Personal freundlich und hilfreich; das Frühstück lecker - besonders das Omelett. Auch das Zimmer ist prima und sauber; nicht ganz optimal: Der Sonnenschutz am Dachfenster lässt recht viel Licht durch. Würde dennoch jederzeit wieder einchecken!

Friendly guest house in an excellent location

My room (single room No 1) was comfortable and clean. The guest house is in a great location, particularly if your time in Sarajevo is limited (only a few minutes walk from the old town). Breakfast was plentiful. The staff couldn't have been more friendly or helpful; I had a 5am start on the day I left and my pre-booked taxi didn't turn up, so Amra walked with me down the road to make sure I found another taxi and was safe.

A Treasure

We were greeted in the quiet garden with homemade lemonade and then shown our room. Kandilj is just across the Latin Bridge in the wonderful Bistrik neighborhood. It is quiet and so welcoming. 24 hour hosts ready to help with anything you need. Delicious buffet breakfast. The wonderful cook showed us how to make Turkish coffee. Beautiful walks in either direction just out the front door. Mosque calls and birdsongs just outside your window above the flower-filled planters on the sill. Walking across the bridge after a day in the bazaars, museums, restaurants or markets up the hill was like coming home to a different world. What a perfect place to stay in Sarajevo!

快適なホテルでした

旧市街地まで徒歩数分、日本大使館からすぐの好立地でどこへ行くのも便利でした。スタッフも皆感じがよく快適に過ごせました。夜は周辺の明かりがほぼ消えるので道を間違えないように明るいうちに確認しておくほうがいいと思います。徒歩１分のところにミニスーパーがありちょっとした水などを買いに行くのに便利でした。事前にメールなどで連絡しておけばバスまたは列車の駅まで迎えに来てくれるので夜の遅い到着でも安心だと思います。
