    Dinner was just okay, nothing special. Our duvet cover had a huge rip on the side, but it was late at night when we noticed, and we couldn’t be bothered to ask for a replacement. The overall cleanliness of the room could have been better. Nothing alarming, but not quite up to the standard of a 5-star hotel. The glasses weren’t clean, and there was trash in the bin. The bathrobes had holes and rips.

    Breakfast was delicious with plenty of options. The staff was friendly, and we got a free upgrade to a room with a better view. The bed was big and comfy, and the balcony had an amazing view. Overall, a good stay.

    Transport was difficult if you didn’t have a car so next time I would drive or preplan my transport better

    The staff were friendly and very helpful. The resort was beautiful and had stunning scenery. There was a variety of foods to choose from. The spa was amazing and I had an amazing massage.

    There is not much you can fault with this place - it's amazing. Perhaps the only detail is the lack of supportive pillows (they are all thin/soft which isn't ideal if you prefer firmer pillows). The other thing is that the A/C was turned off in our rooms (it was October when we went) as they said 'why would guests need A/C in the winter?' It would be nice to have A/C as an option all year round for when the room gets too warm/stuffy.

    This is simply one of the most magnificent hotels you could dream of staying in - the photos do not do it justice! It is a purpose built architectural work of art at the top of a mountain and overlooking a valley, you simply won't find a better view from a hotel in Bosnia. The staff were great, the breakfast and lunch/dinner buffets were lovely and the place has to be seen to be believed, it really is that special. There is an amazing games space, conference facilities, onsite 'farm' for younger kids, endless grounds/land to walk in, access to all kinds of outdoor activities (as you are literally in the mountains!), plenty of free parking and the entire atmosphere is very classy and cosy.

    Nothing disappointed.

    Our stay at Tarcin Forest Resort was great. The view is amazing. The staff was super friendly, the breakfast better than expected (and our expectations were high). The reception also arranged a car rental for us and a taxi when we needed it. Always with a smile. The spa and swimming pool are also nice. We highly recommend this hotel!

    We would appreciate more food options and breakfast variety. We disliked the bidet and would prefer to use the Shattaf instead.

    We enjoyed our daily walks in the forest, the stunning view from our room, and the friendly, cooperative staff.

    Be aware that this is an alcohol-free hotel. It would be nice if the hotel would offer some excursions, for example to the cave nearby to on one of the surrounding mountains

    Good location in a green and quiet region not far away from Sarajevo and the international airpost Very cosy and comfortable rooms, rich breakfast buffet, spa with heated pool and 3 saunas; friendly staff, parking available. Café in the forest nearby with activities for children. Relaxing overall atmosphere.

    I stayed in a Villa, which was a mistake on my part as not all Villas have a mountain view. It really sucked have a road as the view from the balcony. Next time, I will definitely not believe Booking, and call the property directly to make sure my stays contains the breathtaking mountain view!

    The location was good, but the staff were over the top amazing! They were all smiles, quick, and extremely helpful! I enjoyed my conversation with Ahmed (He was the Supervisor I believe), and enjoyed my Quad rides with Emir as the guide (Emir was amazing!). They had some animals as well that would gladly eat leaves out of you hand! Although I spent 2 nights at the property, I definitely needed more time to explore the vast facilities they had to offer. For example, they had a gym, spa, and pool that I didn't make use of because I was enjoying everything else. Moreover, the restaurant was amazing and, in my personal view, affordable!

    Regarding the housekeeping you need to make sure when they clean the room everyday they should use the machine to clean the floor ,especially for the families with kids as you know kids will keep eating and playing around the room .

    The view from my room was breathtaking and the resort comfortable and luxurious , we liked the playground from the kids and the spa was amazing The room was big and they provide you with your own iron . You feel peaceful and safe in the hotel and all the staff was very welcoming and helpful .

    The choice of breakfast was very limited. The main restaurant food was nice, but again limited and not the traditional food we had in Sarajevo city. I was disappointed that the traditional Cevapi was not available at the hotel, so best to have that in the city. The forest was nice, but not well sign posted for hiking, also the forest cafe only serve food on the weekends, but serve drinks throughout the week, which was a bit disappointing, as we fancied a pizza from the forest cafe on a Monday. Most of the forest activities are for children, including the horse riding.

    The location of the property is awesome, we booked the deluxe room with balcony and the views were just amazing, there was a village down below, so we could see the different types of homes the locals live in, which was really sweet, some even had farm animals. Beyond the homes was the mountains, which looked spectacular!!

    Some features were a little tired and needed work, the restaurant had major issues with water pouring through the ceiling, strange it wasn't being fixed for such a high-end hotel. A few features like this were a disappointment.

    The location was beautiful. The Half board option was great. Staff were superb. So friendly and helpful.
