I stayed here in 2010. The journey was a nightmare from London via Vienna., nearly missing my connecting flight, and also missing the taxi driver assigned to collect me,.After all this and luggage gone walkabout, things could only get better. . The Kandilj did just that.A friendly welcome and a clean room with good facilities was just what I needed.You... More

We stayed at the Kandilj Pension for 4 nights in October. It's a simple, basic guesthouse tucked away on a quiet street near Sarajevo's old town. The location can't be beat, really. It's a fairly charming place -- rooms are simply furnished with kilims on the floor and nice bedspreads. The employees are very friendly and kind. Breakfast was pretty... More

My first three nights in October were spent at Kandilj in Sarajevo. I am so glad I came across this place. Adi picked me up at the train station in the morning and guided me on how to go about the city as it was my first time. The hotel with it's omelette breakfast was great as I was away... More

They picked me from the train station after a tiring 10 hour trip from Belgrade,and we arrived in 5 minutes.A very friendly and helpful family,you can live almost like a Sarajevan with them because,although you are only 3 minutes walk from the Bascarsija via the Latin Bridge,the neighbourhood is not touristy,you have a market and a bakery and the sights...

Had a very nice stay for four nights at Kandilj. The free airport pick up service was very helpful following a long journey. The location is excellent, only a 2-3 minute walk from Latin Bridge and the old town, and has a cash point and supermarket a couple of doors away. Staff were very helpful and friendly - home cooked... More

Wonderful location within walking distance to many of the impressive monuments and buildings of this truly unique city. The pre-arranged airport transfer was welcome after a long day of travel. The room was cozy and comfortable. The cooked to order breakfast in the morning and Turkish coffee was just perfect. The helpful and informative staff made the stay even more... More

Kandilj Pension was a really great experience for me! I thought the price was great and the location excellent--only about a 5-minute walk from Bascarsija. My room was adorable, cozy, comfortable, and clean. Unlike most B&Bs I've stayed at in Europe, they actually had a terrific spread for breakfast, including omelets made to order. (As a plus, the restaurant was... More

We stayed in room 9, it had to windows in the roof. we could hear church bells and the call for prayer.......wonderful. Lovely breakfast with Bosnian coffee if you want one.Friendly... More

If you are after friendly, comfortable and unpretencious accomodation in a central location within Sarajevo look no further. No complaints; other than the breakfast coffee could be better! Bedroom and bathroom were clean and attractive and my stay was well priced; 40 euros for a single traveller. More

We loved Sarajevo and Kandilj was a great base to see the place. Breakfast was included in the rate, free internet downstairs and the rooms were clean and well furnished. Very friendly and helpful staff, and a good location just over the bridge from the Turkish quarter. Overall, top value (whilst you're there, visit Kuhinja mala for incredible food) More
