I spent two very pleasant nights at the Kandilj Konak (aka Guesthouse Kandilj) in late May and was very favorably impressed with its hospitality, from the moment I was greeted at the airport through the moment I was helped into a taxi to the bus station. The Guesthouse is well located for exploring Sarajevo’s heart (only a 5-minute walk from... more

I stayed at the Kandilj 3 nights (double room, single use). This family-run guesthouse is located in a quiet alley, next to a small old mosque, just a stone's throw away from the Latin Bridge and the city center. It's a small, simple but cozy establishment, with some (new) furniture in traditional bosnian-style, i.e. low tables and seats both in... more

A friendly staff waited us at the train station and drive us to the pension for free. Room is huge and the very clean. The Bosnian are extremely friendly and nice, food are unbelievably good and the price is reasonable. Breakfast and wireless is included in price, but the room price is slightly higher than the Bosnia standard. more

I've been meaning to review the Kandilj for nearly six months now! I led a group of twelve students, faculty and a filmmaker from LA to Sarajevo in January. I had stayed in Sarajevo before but never with so many people, and we needed a place that would be comfortable for two students per room, included breakfast, allowed us to... more

We booked this after reviews on here. A worker picked us up from the airport and drove us to the hotel for free, which was really nice. The hotel is within 5 minutes of the old town - the main area you want to be in Sarajevo. The rooms were big enough for the price, they were clean, had A/C... more

I have just returned from Sarajevo and had a very enjoyable stay at the Kandilj. The staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the food at breakfast was better than I expected..a very nice lady even made mouthwatering omelettes. I would recommend this accomodation to anyone....I had never visited Bosnia before... more

I loved this place! I had 6 nights here and enjoyed every minute. From some rooms you'll hear a gentle call to prayer at dawn. From other rooms you'll hear a tolling of bells from the nearby catholic church. That's very Sarajevo! where each faith is careful not to disturb the others. The rooms are fresh and comfortable, including TV,... more

We have stayed for 3 nights in this small but pleasant pension. Everything is truly Bosnian, and they have the smartest and friendliest staff ever. All the receptionists speak perfect English and they are ready to help you with anything. The rooms and overall the hotel is very clean. It is in a perfect location, in the middle of the... more
