New Hotel Ilidza

New Hotel is a four-star property in Ilidza, a district on Sarajevo's edge near the source of the Bosna river at Vrelo Bosne. Sarajevo International Airport is a five-minute drive away, about 3 km. The building holds 32 rooms across four types: standard doubles and twins, a suite with its own living room, connecting rooms for two linked bedrooms, and family suites with a separate sitting area and balcony. Each room carries air conditioning, Wi-Fi and a refrigerator at no extra charge; the standard rooms run to 610 sq ft, the family suites to 680 sq ft. Décor favours warm tones and modern furniture over period detail, in keeping with the hotel's plain, functional character. A restaurant on site serves local and international dishes, and a bar and lobby lounge sit off reception for guests who want a quieter corner. Breakfast runs as a continental and Turkish buffet. The hotel also arranges tour programmes for guests keen to see more of the surrounding region. Check-in starts at 3pm, check-out is midday. It is a straightforward base rather than a destination in itself, built around access rather than atmosphere. For travellers with an early flight or a late one, the short run to the airport is the hotel's clearest advantage.
