Fantastic hotel with excellent service. The Pino Hotel team made us feel at home - always smiling, helpful and professional. Every detail was covered. One of the best hospitality experiences I've had.

Haris Haskić

Probably the best hotel in Sarajevo - the staff is exceptionally friendly and professional, breakfast and coffee are excellent, and the room is always clean and fragrant. Overall 10/10, warm recommendation. Everything was in its place, and the housekeeping staff cleaned regularly.
