First the pros, the location is great, stones throw from the old town and also the venue looks lovely. Most of the staff are lovely and try and be helpful so there is definitely great potential here. However, for the price we paid this is more of an air bnb/apartment as opposed to a hotel. Breakfast is provided albeit very basic, the rooms do not have water or tissue. There are water coolers at the venue but no glasses. There is a TV but the remotes had no batteries. The double bed is actually 2 single mattresses which is uncomfortable. As I say this place has potential but with the service level provided at the moment I wouldn't hurry back.

Lovely location but amenities could do with an upgrade

No comment! each letter is too many! double zero for value! pets are allowed but in the booth, and smokers are allowed!!! entrance to the room from the restaurant, poor sound insulation! It's been a long time since we've had such a miserable breakfast with purchased packaged croissants!

 Poor breakfast with purchased packaged croissants!

The attention and care of the hostess/owner is amazing!!! I don't know her name but she will help you in any way possible.

She called us taxis whenever we needed. She let us leave our bags at the reception for as long as we wanted. She personally looked for a PCR test lab ON A SUNDAY, so that we could travel safely to Belgrade on the next day. And the cherry on top was that we couldn't find any available taxis so SHE DROVE US HERSELF TO THE BUS STATION!!! And wouldn't even take the money for the cost of the ride.

The place looks nice and clean, plus it has a lovely view of the river. The breakfast was pretty decent, they give you coffee/tea and cereals at first but you can pick one of six more nutritious options (omelette, sausages, etc) from the menu they give you. The location is pretty comfortable, only three blocks away from the Old Town and the points of interest for tourists.

The only thing that would need more attention was the bathroom ventilation, it already had a humid smell when we got there. Aside from that, everything went great. Would defined pick it again.


Outstanding attention and care!

We loved our stay at Pansion River. We had opted for room with River View so we got a nice balcony with a beautiful view where we got to witness breathtaking sunset views over the river. The room was spacious and cosy. Everything was clean. Hot & cold water dispenser was provided  along the hotel corridor. The breakfast room was also bright and airy with the river view. Breakfast was filling. The staffs were all friendly especially the front desk staff lady whom was helpful giving us lots of info. It's a nice 5-10 mins walk to the old town where you will walk by the river then along shops.  We absolutely loved our stay.

Relaxing Stay

Really great value, fantastic views

Slightly tired in places but that adds to the charm

There was a do happening on the Saturday which I was informed about at check in with loud music but fortunately I had my earphones and music stopped at a reasonable time 

Friendly staff

Only slight gripe apart from the loud music above was the fact that they don’t accept card payment 

Loved this place

Our trip to Sarajevo was made even better by our stay at Pansion River. We had a nice clean room with a great view of the river, and even though the main road was very close we weren't bothered by any noise. Pansion River is only a short walk away from the old town, and there are shops and good restaurants very close by. Walking along the river will get you to a lot of interesting sights. The best part however was the fantastic service; We were picked up at the airport by the owner of the Hotel, and we a had a very interesting discussion about the recent history of Bosnia and Herzegovina on the way. 

The staff were all very friendly and extremely helpful, and they even bought some low carb snacks and sweetener for our daughter who has diabetes. The reception staff spoke English very well, and gave us lots of advice about what to see and where to eat. Breakfast was good, and it was nice to eat out on the terrace overlooking the river.

On our last day we received a nice gift from the hotel, and the owner very kindly drove us to the airport. 

If we ever decide to return to the wonderful country of Bosnia and Herzegovina again we would absolutely consider staying here again, and definitely recommend anyone travelling to Sarajevo to check it out.

Wonderful Service!

Was very lucky to pick this place for my stay. Great location, wonderful staff, especially lady from front desk. Very nice room with balcony just over river. Very good breakfast. Sarajevo old town is 3 min away on foot. The only tip, if you need reliable wifi, pick rooms from upper levels and ground level has a very jumpy signal.

Fabulous

We stayed in Hotel Pansion River for 4 nights and highly recommend this hotel. Our room was river facing with a deck. Excellent service, sumptuous breakfast and extremely friendly staff. 3 mins walk to Old town. Right in middle of old town yet peaceful ambience.
Highly recommended

Short break in Bosnia

Its rooms facing the Neretva river have awesome views. It is also conveniently located near the old town (10 minutes walk), and the Yellow Bastion is only 5 minutes away up the hill where you can get a great panorama of the city. 

Some negative things: in summer time there can be a lot of mosquitoes/bugs due to its proximity to the river. You also need to jaywalk across a busy street to get to the parking spots (no crosswalk nearby), which might be tricky if you are driving and have a lot of luggage to unload.

Great view, perfect location, but it can better

We had a fantastic stay here, complete with amazing breakfasts and great hosts. 

We reached the hotel really early on our first day, and decided to have some breakfast, which turned out to be really fab. Our host, the beautiful curly-haired lady (whose name we’ve forgotten!), was absolutely lovely and waived our breakfast charges. She was also really warm and helpful all the time which really brightened our trip! 

Our room was nice and clean, but I suspect that the river view rooms would be much better (I caught glimpses of it in the morning when people were checking out and the views looked really good). 

Also, we would like to thank the owner of the hotel who kindly let me use the phone for some time after I found out that my credit card was pickpocketed.
