THE BEST HOSTEL I STAYED IN!! The owner - Igor is incredibly friendly and helpful. He creates a unique atmosphere in this place. You will feel like visiting old friends since the first second you enter the door. Everything is clean and the bed is very comfortable and private. All ladies will appreciate this - THERE IS A MIRROR IN YOUR BUNK BED! I was so happy about this detail. Rooms and bunk beds are spacious and there is enough space for your luggage, small belongings and movement. The common areas are very comfortable - honestly I spent 80% of my stay here because Igor has thousands of stories which you just want to listen to (ask him about helicopter) and also a lot of knowledge to re-brief with you after your walking tours. All of us staying in the hostel we became good friends and I believe is thanks to Igor and his way of managing this hostel. I really want to come back to Sarajevo just to stay here again :D

The most amazing location and helpful staff! This little place has only just freshly opened but it's in the perfect central spot, easy walking distance to everything you could want and they will bend over backwards to make sure you are comfortable and have everything you need! Very cozy family vibes with only a few dorm rooms and a central hang-out lounge and balcony area.

I had a great time at One Love Hostel. I arrived in the morning and could leave my luggage at the hostel until my bed was ready, so I could go explore the city in the meantime. The owners and the volunteer working there were super nice and gave me some tips on where to get coffee and a map of the city. The room (6 bed dorm) was very big and had a small balcony with an amazing view. There is a spacious locker for every bed and the bed was very comfortable, especially the pillow and blanket were probably some of the best I've ever had in a hostel. There is a bathroom on every floor and a small kitchen that had everything I needed. Everything was very clean. Would definitely stay there again if I ever return to Sarajevo.

I had a wonderful stay at this hostel. What I loved the most was how peaceful and home-like it felt. It was quiet, cozy, and had a very welcoming atmosphere — just like being at home. I would stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a calm and comfortable place to stay.

The location is prime, strategically very near to the old town maybe just 5 minutes walking distance, and is surrounded by local markets so can buy groceries easily. The host is very friendly and can arrange for temporary luggage storage if required

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The staff is super friendly and welcoming, Ivan which I guess is the manager does his job perfectly, the environment is chill but at the same time very involving. I’ve been in the hostel a few times because I’ve been volunteering in a place nearby and I can assure it’s the best hostel for backpackers in Sarajevo. Also the position can’t be more central.

    So, where do I start? I am a backpacker who have been to 84 countries so far and this was one of the best hostels I ever had stayed in. Igor is a really cool host, the place is very friendly, it’s so clean and fresh, perfect location, even a “indoor” balcony where you can sit watch people walk on the street. There’s small mirrors in each bed for your morning routine, there’s small pockets for your important belongings. The bed are comfortable and you create your own space with curtains. Highly recommended!
