You are greeted so nicely by Igor here, immediately giving that homely vibe. Igor is so well informed about Bosnia Hercegovina and is always present at the hostel ready to help you. The location is superb, only two steps away from eternal flame, 5 minutes pleasurable walk from old town and 30 minutes walk from train station. Very clean hostel and Hun, the volunteer was such great company. Really great experience and really enjoyed my stay here.

I had a great time at One Love Hostel. I arrived in the morning and could leave my luggage at the hostel until my bed was ready, so I could go explore the city in the meantime. The owners and the volunteer working there were super nice and gave me some tips on where to get coffee and a map of the city. The room (6 bed dorm) was very big and had a small balcony with an amazing view. There is a spacious locker for every bed and the bed was very comfortable, especially the pillow and blanket were probably some of the best I've ever had in a hostel. There is a bathroom on every floor and a small kitchen that had everything I needed. Everything was very clean. Would definitely stay there again if I ever return to Sarajevo.

I had a wonderful stay at this hostel. What I loved the most was how peaceful and home-like it felt. It was quiet, cozy, and had a very welcoming atmosphere — just like being at home. I would stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a calm and comfortable place to stay.

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

So, I will first start off with the staff...what great people, super helpful, accomodating, understanding! 20 out of 10 for them. The location was excellent. Tram stop to bus/railways station just in front. Cool place in general. The hostel, facilities, room were typical hostel, but if you're staying in a hostel, you know what you should expect.

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!
