If you’re thinking about where to stay in Novi Pazar, check out Hotel IDEAL Deluxe. It’s fancy enough to feel special but not so over-the-top you’ll regret it. What I like? It’s got style and comfort, and it won’t cost you a fortune.
Novi Pazar is a hidden gem in Serbia, where East meets West in the most charming way. The city’s mix of Ottoman heritage and modern buzz makes it an intriguing spot for travelers.

But let’s not beat around the bush—finding a great place to stay isn’t always easy. Luckily, I’ve done the hard work for you.
Here are three spots that’ll make your visit feel just a bit more special.
Hotel IDEAL Deluxe
So, let’s start with Hotel IDEAL Deluxe. Picture this: sleek, modern rooms with all the bells and whistles. It’s got air-conditioning to keep you cool (because let’s face it, Novi Pazar’s summer sun can be a bit much), a minibar stocked with the essentials, and a flat-screen TV for when you want to ignore the beautiful city outside and binge-watch something.
But the real gem here? The hammam. Nothing beats that post-sightseeing, pre-dinner relaxation. Oh, and the food. You’ll be tempted to stay in just to avoid missing out on the restaurant. Definitely one of the highlights of the stay. View room gallery >>
Hotel Vrbak ND
Next up, Hotel Vrbak ND. It’s a 3-star, but don’t let that fool you—this place is pure comfort. The rooms are solid, with all the basics you need, plus a terrace that gives you a lovely view of the city. But here’s the kicker: the restaurant. This place knows how to do local food right.
If you’ve never tried some of the unique flavors of Novi Pazar, now’s your chance. And, if you’re into cycling (or just like the idea of cycling while you’re away), they’ve got you covered. It’s a simple, no-nonsense place where you can just chill and enjoy the local vibe. View room gallery >>
Hotel M Star Novi Pazar
And finally, there’s Hotel M Star Novi Pazar. If you like a bit of Mediterranean flair mixed with Serbian comfort, this is the place for you. The rooms are fantastic—air-conditioned, clean, and with all the modern touches you could want. I’m a sucker for a good meal, so I was all in on their Mediterranean, Italian, and pizza options.
They even have halal and vegetarian dishes, which is a nice touch. But it’s not all about food—there’s a garden and a bar where you can unwind after a day of exploring. You know, just the kind of place that makes you feel like you’re on holiday. View room gallery >>
Final words
These spots may not be the cheapest, but they’re certainly some of the best in town. You won’t be disappointed—unless, of course, you don’t go.
