We experienced 2 different hosts here and both were very, very friendly. We were in room 25 which is huge and clean and the bed was so comfortable! Only a 5 minute walk to the old town. The guesthouse was slightly difficult to find when you first arrived, and we could not get wifi in our room unless we sat... More

Room was well designed and clean, the location is about 500m to Basjcarjiya, but its a bit difficult to walk with luggage. Room number 21, like all cars were passing through my room whole night. I will never be back there. More

Dear Mr. Yunus: :) We are truly sorry for your discontentment but you have to understand that some things are not in our power and that, once you decide to stay in center of a town, there may be possibility of the street noise in some special occasions as it was the day you arrived in Halvat. That Tuesday was... More

From the moment we arrived we were treated with nothing but gracious hospitality. Our room was spotless and welcoming, with all the amenities: High speed wireless internnet, Cable tv, desk with comfortable chairs, comfortable beds, and good heating. The breakfast is not included with the room, but is offered at a vey resonalbe price. It included daily: fresh fruit, juice,... More

Excellent location, super nice staff, clean and cozy room with extremely comfortable bed, plenty of hot water, and everything else you need for a great time in Sarajevo. Can't reccomend enough. You are only steps from the heart of Sarajevo cafes, shopping, restaurants, and sites. Thanks for having me, and I can't wait to come back with my wife... Drew More

Really truly, you will feel like you live in Sarajevo for the days that you spend with Valida and Mumo at their amazing guesthouse. The location is perfect as ever - even in the snowy February that we visited it was a joy to take the short walk through the Basarcija home. The breakfast was amazing as always - Valida... More

just a few days of staying at the Halvat reminded me of what I used to love about Sarajevo when staying there for extended stays in the beleaguered city almost 20 years ago - it's the people themselves. Valida and Mumo run a place where you can feel home as soon as you checked in. Today the amenities are included... More

Our first trip to Bosnia and the ladies at the Halvat made us feel welcome. It was very well located for the old-town and centre of Sarajevo. We visited in mid winter, so definitely off-season but that was no problem; there was always someone there for our queries and for our personalised breakfasts. The room was more basic than a... More
