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!

The apartments are very central, just off the Main Street and despite the noise in the area, we found them very quiet inside. They take a bit of finding but there are lots of signs so just follow them around the inner courtyard. The owners were very friendly and helpful and allowed us to leave our bags when we arrived and we were then able to enter the room a little later. Communication was good. The rooms are small but perfectly adequate for a night or 2. The beds were comfy and the bathroom was clean. They were very cheap, especially when compared to hotels in the area and I would definitely stay there again if I came back to 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!
