Perfect

Very good value for money and extremely friendly and accommodating hosts and staff. They made sure that the room was ready for our slightly early arrival and twice started breakfast early for us because of trips. The location is only 5 minutes walk from the City Hall and river. Don’t be put off by the hill as it is very quick to get down and worth it in the evening for the views. There’s an excellent restaurant at the base called Inat Kuca.

Just okay

The hotel is quite okay, nothing special. The air conditioning worked well. The fridge was useful however no kettle in the room which is inconvenient. The room was very small too, if you have bigger suitcases that’s not comfortable. Also you need to climb up to get to the hotel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Someone unlocked the door to our locked room while we were sleeping! I’m unsure if it is the same key for some of the rooms or something, but it was a scary situation. Aside from that, the room looked neglected, the leather on the headboard was ripped, towels had stains, and the room was generally not very clean. Hotel is also not easily accessible as it is at the top of a very steep hill. It is located by the city and landmarks. Otherwise, though, would not recommend.

Close to the old town

Nice comfortable hotel, although a little dated in its feel. Stayed on the top floor, which is like a small apartment rather than a standard hotel room (and hence no daily cleaning etc). It is at the top of a steep hill, but not worth getting a taxi whilst you're staying there if you can manage the two minute climb at the end of the day. Appear to only take cash - not unusual in Bosnia but needs factoring in.

Overnight Stay in Sarajevo

I arrived at night and quickly found the hotel. I parked my car and was immediately greeted by the hotel staff. They helped me with my luggage and checked me in. I immediately went to my room for the night. The wifi worked great in my bedroom. The bed was comfortable and the room was quiet. When I woke up, I enjoyed the breakfast buffet before walking into old town and doing some sightseeing before checking out and continuing on my road trip.

Solid

Hotel Herc was great, especially the staff. Room was modest, yet clean and comfortable. Plenty of warm water, etc. When I fell ill while there, staff was good enough to come to my aid with warm soup. Neighborhood was very well located, but be wary of the very steep hill one climbs to get to it.
