Hotel Europe

This hotel is one of Sarajevo’s top attractions. Hotel Europe is a five star historic Sarajevo institution. Founded in 1882 and encompassing both Ottoman and Austro Hungarian design styles. It is arguably in the most central location possible, just a stone’s throw from the Old Town and near to the city’s main religious sites. The hotel is modern but has retained much of its original features, notably the Viennese grand café and dining room, which is open to the public and popular with Sarajevo’s classy business elite.
