Tarcin Forest Resort & Spa Sarajevo - MGallery Collection

Excellent

Luxury hotell but the rooms were badly isolated and you hear your neighbors when you want to sleep. Had to call the reception as we we’re hearing the tv from the next room. The spa is just an cold pool and the saunas wasn’t warm enough.

We arrived late at night with our three young children, tired after a long journey. We had booked a villa and were looking forward to a peaceful and pleasant stay, but unfortunately, we were deeply disappointed. As soon as we entered the villa, we were greeted by an unpleasant sight: long-legged silverfish crawling on the ceiling, a dead beetle in the shower, and spiders hanging from the ceiling. My husband had to go to the reception, and we were promised two rooms in the main building instead. When we finally reached those rooms, they were no better. We found a live silverfish on the floor in one of the rooms, and outside our other room, there was a large dead brown beetle. We felt very uncomfortable staying there due to the pests and insects, and now we were left without accommodation in Sarajevo in the middle of the night, with three tired and disappointed children. We contacted the hotel's manager, Nermin Horman, who informed us that they would not reimburse us for the nights, even though we had paid over 500 euros for accommodation that we never used. After a long night of searching for another hotel, we eventually found a room at Ibis Styles. When we checked in, we realized that it was actually a sister hotel to Tarcin. The room was okay, but the breakfast was another disappointment. Dirty plates, an unappetizing buffet, and ants in the restaurant quickly made us realize that we didn’t want to stay here either.

There was a wedging at the hotel and therefore no access to the restaurant and we had to order room service which is a shame. The breakfast was not nice (not fresh cakes and only a few options)

I had villa room. Very clean and cosy compared to villas in other countries. Bathroom: i have noticed in eastern europe and central asia they seem to all have the foul drainage smell in all bathrooms. It must be the way drainage is designed. For a 5 star the toiletries wasn't on par. No fans, leave window open 24/7. Toilets have bidets in rooms but not in public areas, no issues with running water. Breakfast: expected alot more for 5 star. It was average. Dinner: excellent food. All dishes were tasty. Mohitoes not expensive. Mensur is the best. Very friendly and welcoming same with all staff. Staff: everyone polite and friendly, however there is always the odd one that dont like their job or not bothered to go that extra mile. For example reluctant to help get rental car or told us when all horse riding places where closed. They have lazy horse ranch 10minutes away which is open every day all year around. I would stay again. Very peacfull and quite. However it is far from city center, mostar and waterfall. Theg have baby horse kids can feed and pet as well as a few goats. Visitied early april 2025. Weather was freezing. Sometimes snow. Started to get warm just before i left. Games area downstairs, not much to do. Pinball machine half worked. They have softplay for kids on ground floor very helpful.
