Pansion Cardak

The host “Susan” was a great host, she was very welcoming & helpful. The place is wonderful like a fairy tale place right in the middle of the old bazar, but tucked in a quiet alley to be far enough from the street noise & just few steps from the famous bridge. Our room was spacious, clean & so comfortable with a little cozy balcony. We’ll definitely stay here again when we comeback to Mostar. Thank you Villa Cardak

Everything you have read in the multitude of 10/10 reviews is accurate. Suzana is the consummate host - there is virtually nothing she wouldn’t do for her guests who she cares for like family. She goes out of her way to please and make your stay as comfortable as she can. Because we were there more than the usual number of nights and requested no housekeeping, Suzana offered to do our laundry - and did - refusing to accept payment of any kind. I won’t repeat all the accolades about her, the location of the pension or the rooms, except to say – again – they are all accurate. And I have very high standards when it comes to hotels, rooms, and service. A couple little details that may not have been mentioned, and I will post photos of our “superior double room with balcony”, #7 on the top floor. Note, this is up 2 flights stairs and in a small establishment like this, of course there is no lift. Our hosts helped us with bags. There are also no washcloths, and no shampoo, conditioner, or hand lotion. Bring those with you! Number 7 is just about as perfect as can be. The queen bed was exceedingly comfortable, as were the pillows. The water – each room has its own separate water heater so if you run out of hot water, you’ll know it’s because your showers were a bit too long. As a result, the water is instantly exceedingly hot and very cold. Such a welcome change over many hotels where the temperature is regulated. A/C worked. Attention to detail for comfort and convenience is evident throughout, for example, hooks! So many hotel rooms lack hooks where they could so easily be present. Our room had four big hooks at the entryway and six hooks in the bathroom. Unexpectedly, there is also a bidet. Ample room under the bathroom sink to put your toiletries, and the bathroom lighting is excellent. In fact, the lighting sources and the electrical outlets throughout were numerous and well-placed. The bedside tables were a perfect size and had two levels for storage. The first floor has a kitchen which serves a common area with a large fridge and microwave for guest use. The icing on the cake was the gorgeous large, private balcony with a comfortable couch, two chairs and a large centre table. We loved sitting out there, sipping coffee in the morning and wine in the evening. If you choose Villa Cardak – and I highly recommend that you do – you will most definitely not be disappointed.

Villa Cardak is a wonderful place to stay when visiting Mostar. My husband and I arrived early and were able to check in immediately. Suzana and her husband were super helpful and friendly. The room was perfect, with plenty of space and a nice balcony. The location is perfect, with restaurants practically right outside the door and all of the old city just steps away. There is also a shared kitchen space available. Room was very quiet as well.
