There probably isn’t a better way to experience a historic town than to spend a night in a hotel following the same, historic style of the destination itself. In summer 2015 we explored the beautiful city of Mostar in Bosnia & Herzegovina and stayed in the gorgeous Muslibegovic house which is also a museum during daytime so even if you only happen to drop by while driving to other destinations, you can always pay a visit and look around the museum areas. The house used to belong to a noble Muslibegovic family in the 17th century and is today considered one of the most significant examples of residential architecture of the Ottoman period Herzegovina (source: Wikipedia) thus is a must see for a history buff!
We had a great one night stay at this hotel. Mostar is a small town and two days is enough to explore it thoroughly. However, even though it’s small in size, it shouldn’t be left as just another town you’re passing by as it is a truly beautiful place to visit. Mostar was badly damaged by the bombings during the recent war in former Yugoslavia yet the old bridge and its surroundings have been beautifully restored in 2004.
The hotel has 12 beautiful, very traditionally styled rooms with modern bathrooms. You walk in to a beautiful front yard with plants and flowers, continue to the lobby where you'll find lots of magazines and books introducing the surroundings. Across the yard is an entrance to the breakfast area where you can eat in or outside. Breakfast is included in the room price. Since we're living in the 21st century, there's also free wifi. The location is great, it’s only a short walk from the Old Bridge. The owners were incredibly warm and welcoming, trying to make sure you have all you need during your stay. We were a little sad to leave after one night and could have easily stayed at least a couple of days more even though the city itself was already thoroughly explored.
