Waste of cash and Innaccurate Profile
The hotel was really far away from everything but I think the most frustrating thing was that the 24hr front desk isn't actually 24 hours. It's only staffed during certain hours and if your bus or train is late and you don't have a way to contact them you're pretty much screwed with fining anybody around. I wouldn't stay there again. I spent so much on taxis that I may as well have stayed at a higher priced hotel closer in to everything. There's not even a restaurant withing 20 minutes walking

Money Talks
After a struggle to find the place on entering advised that they accept cash only & that no restaurants in immediate area. So off to the ATM we go !Extremely small & cramped room & bathroom , had to leave to change your mind. Parking haphazard at best & the breakfast was simple but at the end adequate for our needs.

Nice mom and pop hotel
If you are looking to stay away from the rush of the city this is a great hotel. It is only a 500 m walk to the metro line connecting you in 25 min to the old town and 5 min to the Ilidiza area.

Good things: very clean, big room, quite close to the airport. Not so good things: we could not pay by card (cash only Euro or KM), no AC, location far from any facilities (restaurant, atm, city centre )

A very clean and comforting hotel with friendly staff. The owner asked us if it was hard to find and since we had a gps coordinate it wasn't hard and we saw a sign with Hotel Ahar directing us to the hotel. And since we also had a car we didn't have any problem with that the hotel was a bit away from the city. The lightning and decorations in hotel was very pleasant, breakfast was nothing special but we would definitely recommend this hotel!

Only okay if you drive
I wasn't expecting a lot before staying at Ahar, as I wasn't paying a lot, and I knew it isn't in the city centre of Sarajevo. However, I was still disappointed. The hotel's about 15 minutes' drive from the city centre, and if you don't have a car, you would have to take the tram which takes about 40 minutes (but the hotel staff told us it's 20 minutes, which is why we took the tram once). It's located in the middle of nowhere, and there are construction sites around and the train passes through right next to the hotel every night a few times, which makes it quite noisy. The 'breakfast' included in the hotel consists of a few pieces of ham, cheese, some dry bread rolls, a couple of cheese options, butter and honey. Not kidding, that's it. So disappointing! I would recommend staying in a downtown hotel rather than at Ahar. We had to pay for parking in the city centre as the tram was really not so convenient. Though it's quite cheap (around 1 euro an hour), you could easily avoid this if you stay centrally.

The hotel is quite nice, very new and clean and reminded me of family holidays as a child in Austria. The owner is really helpful and even gave me a lift to the station on my last day! The only two drawbacks are, there is no air conditioning (it wasn't unbearably hot but too hot for comfort) and it is very far from the centre (about half an hour by tram, which luckily stops not too far from the hotel) and is in an area of newly built family homes/ blocks of flats so a bit hard to find also for cab drivers - there are signs but it's a bit tricky the first time around. I did find it a bit scary at night although this was more due to my fear of dogs than my fear of humans! Breakfast (included) was continental which, as a German, obviousy appealed to me.

Great, clean hotel with friendly management
The Hotel Ahar is a nice, new hotel located a mile or so from the airport and a few miles from the city center. I stayed here with my girlfriend for 4 days and we loved it. Free breakfast, fast Wi-fi, TV's, and the staff even did our laundry for a tip. The owners are very friendly and are happy to point you to the sights in Sarajevo and surrounding areas. I would highly recommend the Hotel Ahar to anyone coming to Sarajevo.

Bien que l'hôtel soit un peu loin du centre-ville, le trajet se fait bien en tramway. Un service de qualité qui dépasse largement le prix payé. Chambres très propres et le personnel souhaite que votre séjour soit une réussite. Je recommande sans hésiter et j'y retournerai lorsque je retournerai à Sarajevo.

Något avsides, men fungerade bra med spårvagn till centrum. Står på Hotels.com att det är 2 km till centrum, men det är tyvärr c:a 7 km. Fanns ingen stol eller skrivbord, men vi fick en stol när vi sade till. Bra frukost.

Ducha defectuosa
Decían con balcón privado y frigobar. Tuvimos la habitación 2. No había frigobar y el balcón era continuo y tenían acceso 2 habitaciones más del frente. La ducha filtraba agua al piso del baño lo que molestaba mucho. Cuando reclamamos dijeron que estaba pendiente de arreglo. El desayuno bueno.

não me agradou
Me decepcionei com as condições do hotel, embora pessoal simpático na recepção, onde uma única pessoa se comunica em inglês. Café fraco, quarto boas dimensões mas pouco conforto, sem ar condicionado e toalhas horríveis. Localização distante da cidade mas com uma linha de tram passando a uns 800m. Numa próxima oportunidade escolheria outra opção.

Hotel mal situé à l'extérieur de Sarajevo même les taxis ne connaissaient pas l'endroit... Si vous comptez faire un tour en ville, il vous faut être motorisé.

Hotel.com har vi endnu ikke hørt fra. Værelser fejler ikke noget og betjeningen er god når man ser bort fra manglerne. Hotellet ville rette oplysningerne.. det har de endnu ikke gjort.

cosy and small
Nice staff, great distance to the airport, clean and quiet. Only bad thing was the area the hotel was located at, bad signs and tiny roads made the hotel hard to find from the main road. It doesn't make it easier either considering Sarajevo city seems afraid of putting up signs telling drivers where they are or where to drive, neither any street names existed anywhere.

Izbjegavati
Čest sam putnik i smatram se potpuno kompetentnim da bih ustvrdio da je hotel Ahar najneugodnije iznenađenje koje sam doživio u svim dosadašnjim objektima rezerviranim putem Hotels.com. Lokacija hotela je loša, na recepciji radi djevojka koja govori samo lošim engleskim jezikom, oprema sobe uopće ne odgovara opisu na stranicama Hotels.com-a. Zapravo u sobi nema ničeg od uobičajene opreme za takav tip smještajnih jedinica. Sve bi to bilo i podnošljivo kad bi vlasnik i menadžer hotela iskazao volju da riješi pritužbe. Upravo suprotno, naišli smo na drzak i prijeteći stav, vezano uz naše pritužbe, zbog čega smo već slijedeće jutro odlučili podmiriti račun za jedno noćenje i preseliti se u drugi hotel u Sarajevu gdje smo se mogli osjećati sigurno i dobrodošlo. Ako pak smatrate da možete podnijeti takvu vrstu ponašanja zbog nešto niže cijene, onda je Ahar svakako odličan izbor za vas.

Hotel in ruhiger Lage, aber weit weg vom Zentrum..
Nettes Personal in einem kleinen familiengeführten Hotel. Das Hotel selbst ist etwas außerhalb vom Zentrum, aber gut mit dem PKW zu erreichen. Kostenfreie Parkplätze sind vorhanden. Eine Straßenbahn Haltestelle ist zu Fuß in 5 Minuten zu erreichen und die Fahrt ins Zentrum dauert ca. 20 Minuten. Die Zimmer sind sehr einfach mit harten Betten ausgestattet. Wir mussten auch erst mal eine Stunde lüften, da es im Zimmer unangenehm gerochen hat. Das Bad war sauber, aber die Duschwanne war undicht und der allgemein Zustand war sehr verlebt. Das Frühstück war einfach, aber absolut zufrieden stellend. Kartenzahlung sind leider im Hotel nicht möglich! Alles in allem ist man hier aber gut aufgehoben, wenn man ein ruhiges und günstiges Zimmer sucht.

Remarquable rapport prix/prestations
A l'hôtel Ahar, nous avons été gentiment reçus. On a monté nos bagages. La chambre, simple, a un équipement suffisant. La propreté est parfaite. Le petit déjeuner (compris, c'est à souligner) est satisfaisant. Nous avons trouvé un seul inconvénient : difficile à trouver. Il semble difficile de trouver mieux pour ce prix.
