I stayed 3 nights in a dorm at Hostel SA, a family run hostel with shared accommodation. The family was very hospitable with me and they gave me some excellent advices on Sarajevo (restaurants, transports, must - see sites….). All was very clean and the 8 bed dorm was really spacious. It has a cozy common room with cooking facilities, a TV and a PC for free guests use. Free Wifi as well. Breakfast not included, but free coffee/tea. Not a party hostel, it´s a quiet place in a peaceful neighbourhood uphill on the left bank of the river near the famous Sarajevo beer factory. Just 5 minutes from the National Library, you can enjoy an amazing view of it from the hostel. The owner Mr. Jasmin, a war veteran himself, and his son Arijan organize a great War Tour based on his own personal experience. Very interesting and touching. They also offer some other tours. To find it easily, cross to the left side of the river and take the street facing the National Library´s main entrance that goes uphill. At the end of this street, you´ll find some old steps just in front of you. Go up the steps for 50 meters till seeing a grey door (which is always opened) on your right side and ring the bell. It´s the orange house. Tip: for excellent Bosnian food, try Itna Kuca, 5 minutes down the street from Hostel SA. Contact: sa-tourism@hotmail.com. phone: 00387-61-548-934 From the main bus/train station, take tram nº 1 at the tram station just in front of it. You can buy the ticket from the driver. Don´t forget to validate it to avoid a serious fine. Get off at the seventh station (Vijecnica) and you ´ll see the National Library on the left.

I stayed here for 3 nights and had a very good time. The hostel is well-located very close to the Brewery but also close enough to the old town. The rooms and bathroom are modern and clean and the staff very knowledgable about Sarajevo. The city tour was excellent. The hostel is small and I guess that the atmosphere depends on the other guests, but we got on really well with the others and so enjoyed our stay immensely. There are obviously a lot of good hostels in the Balkans, but Hostel SA is one we enjoyed and will remember more than others.
