Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomOutlook from the restaurant was picturesque; breakfast good, particularly when there were more people staying in the hotel; restaurant and "bar" prices fair; my room had no actual window but had a large fake on down one wall which gave an impression that there was one, but the room was large, well-ventilated, well-appointed and clean. I would imagine that more expensive rooms would have a pretty spectacular view. Check-in and out were easy. Wifi was good. The hotel itself is about 10 minutes walk from Sarajevo old town, sited on a steep hill halfway up to the Yellow Fortress (probably the best viewpoint over the city) and about 20 minutes from the Trg Austrie bus stop for the 103 which drops you 10 minutes walk from the airport. I'd stay here again.

FinlandThe lack of heating in the room (the outdoors temperature at night was just above 0C during my stay) despite central heating radiators was unfortunate, and the lack of any kind of soundproofing on the doors and windows was noticeable. Also, I found the lack of kettles or smoking places (other than outside the main entrance) striking. Personally I enjoyed the hike up the hill from the city, but some visitors might find it challenging, especially along an unlit main road at night.
The hotel's ambience is very classical, and the view over Sarajevo is amazing. The bathroom was clean and surprisingly large, with fantastic water pressure; and having a desk in the room was a great bonus. The reception staff were all very friendly and helpful; and the breakfast buffet was defintely ok (although the quality of coffee could be improved somewhat).

United KingdomCouldn’t fault it really had a great stay
So retro and such beautiful views over the city! The hotel is walking distance from old town yet feels off the beaten track, the ambience is like stepping back to Sarajevo in the 70’s, such a cool hotel, staff were friendly, warm and welcoming! Breakfast was simple but delicious, the waiter made me such a yummy omelette! Really couldn’t fault this hotel such great value for money, I would go all the way back to Sarajevo just to stay in the hotel really the vibes were immaculate!

SpainI asked for a boiler for the room and they said they did not have it. There is no hair dryer in the room or any luxury staff, just basic.
The hotel is located 10-12 minutes walking to the old town. The way on foot is quite strange, you have to be careful cuz of cars. The hotel is quite old and basic, old fashioned. Need to be renovated, honestly. For the price, it is ok. The breakfast is fine. Nothing much, with basic stuff but fine. You can only enjoy the view from the restaurant, which is amazing. The staff are nice but not extremely.

United States of AmericaA laundry and water was running late at night. It appears it was above my room. I do not care for the furniture,but I think it should be upgraded.
My room was clean. I did not notice any kind of pest. I was not there for breakfast, so I can not tell. Although Hotel Saraj provides a free Wi-Fi I did not connect on their 3G network. I used my S23 Ultra with 5G roaming voice/message service.

SloveniaThe location was close to the city centre (about 10 minutes walk). The room was spacious and clean. There is a TV in the room, but the view out the window was not the best (view of a big rock). I think the accommodation could use some renovation. The staff were friendly, and they got me a taxi early in the morning. The reception is open 24 hours a day. The breakfast was OK, also with vegetarian and vegan options (muesli, fruit, vegetables, eggs, butter, cheese...).

SloveniaThe hotel staff is unfriendly as most of people in Sarajevo (but not elsewhere in Bosnia). BE CAREFUL: If you take so-called capsule (for 30 EUR) be aware that it is a room without a window. Rooms with windows have higher prices (but still reasonable).
Nice hotel, comfortable room, although equipment (furniture, TV etc.) a bit worn out. Excellent, rich and tasteful breakfast, Parking garage, free of charge. Hotel is easy accesible by the car. Close to the city center (ca. 10 minutes walk to Baščaršija).
