Stari Grad
The Mama Shelter brand's Balkan debut brought its signature playful-chic design language to a building in the heart of Stari Grad — rooftop bar with Belgrade's most photogenic city views, restaurant with a raucous atmosphere and genuinely good food, and rooms that make you feel considerably cooler for having chosen them. A reliable hit with creative professionals and younger luxury travellers.
Stari Grad
The finest luxury hotel in Serbia occupies a dramatic position overlooking Republic Square, its clean-lined contemporary design a quiet statement of confidence amidst Belgrade's turbulent architectural history. The rooftop pool and bar offer unrivalled views across the city skyline; the restaurant's Serbian-Mediterranean menu is consistently among Belgrade's best. Service here operates at a standard that would impress in London or Paris.
Stari Grad
Reopened in 2015 after a major renovation, the Metropol Palace on Bulevardul Kralja Aleksandra reclaims its mid-century grandeur with 234 rooms and suites of quietly confident luxury. The rooftop pool and terrace, elegant ballrooms, and prime position near Kalemegdan Park make it a natural choice for those seeking the full luxury Belgrade experience.
Novi Beograd
Belgrade's most comprehensive international luxury address towers above the Sava in New Belgrade, offering the Hyatt's signature generous-scale rooms, extensive spa, and panoramic river views that best the city-side competition. The Sava promenade location and direct connections to the conference centre make it the top choice for international business events.
Stari Grad
A well-positioned Mercure property in the heart of Stari Grad, the Excelsior delivers reliable four-star comfort with a warm Serbian character — Serbian hospitality translates naturally into the brand's 'locally inspired' design ethos, making this one of the most pleasant Mercure properties in the region.
Stari Grad
Belgrade's most iconic hotel has graced Terazije Square since 1906, its Secession-style terracotta façade a defining feature of the city's skyline. The ground-floor café — where every Belgrade intellectual and politician has held court since the Austro-Hungarian era — remains the finest place in Serbia to drink coffee and watch the world go by. Rooms are comfortable if architecturally modest; the address is everything.
