Hotel Turist

Top choice in Tara National Park


'Elegant' and 'modern' aren't synonyms that are often associated with rural Serbian towns, but this hotel in Bajina Bašta puts a new spin on homespun. Beautifully designed, airy rooms please the eye with muted neutrals and polished floorboards; the attached restaurant – with a scenic outdoor terrace – delights the taste buds with upmarket takes on Serbian and international favourites.
