Walking up to Tsar Dušan Apartment, you might wonder if you’ve got the right address — it’s tucked into a classic Belgrade building on Cara Dušana street, and honestly, that’s exactly what makes it special. This isn’t your typical hotel setup; it’s more like staying in a friend’s well-appointed city apartment, which I mean in the best possible way. The entrance feels authentically Belgrade, and once you’re inside, you realize you’ve landed in something quite thoughtful and well-designed.
Here’s the thing about this spot — you’re literally in Stari Grad, the old town, which means everything worth seeing is basically at your doorstep. I’m talking about being able to walk to Knez Mihailova pedestrian zone in about three minutes, and the fortress is just a pleasant stroll away. The street itself has that lived-in Belgrade character, with local cafes and shops that tourists often miss when they stay in the more commercial areas. Couples especially seem to get this location (they’ve rated it a perfect 10), and I can see why — there’s something romantic about being tucked into the real heart of the city like this.
What struck me about Tsar Dušan Apartment is how it manages to feel both homey and polished at the same time. The apartment is on the first floor, which in European terms means one flight up, and it’s been set up with travelers clearly in mind. You’ve got proper living space to spread out, not just a cramped hotel room, and the kitchen setup means you can actually grab some groceries from the local market and make yourself at home. The furnishings feel contemporary without being sterile — there’s personality here that you just don’t get in chain hotels.
Let’s talk about what actually matters when you’re staying somewhere. The wifi works well (I tested it), the shower has good pressure, and the beds are comfortable enough that you won’t wake up regretting your choice. Storage space is adequate, and there are thoughtful touches like proper hangers and decent lighting for getting ready. The building itself is quiet enough for good sleep, but you’re still connected to the city’s energy. One thing to note — this is an apartment-style setup, so don’t expect daily housekeeping or a front desk, but that’s part of what keeps it feeling authentic and reasonably priced.
That 9.5 rating isn’t just a fluke — this place delivers on what it promises. You’re getting an excellent location (seriously, that 9.7 location score tells the whole story), a comfortable space that feels more like a home base than a hotel room, and the kind of authentic Belgrade experience that’s getting harder to find. It’s perfect for couples who want to explore the city on foot, or really anyone who prefers character over corporate hospitality. The value proposition is solid too — you’re paying for location and comfort, not marble lobbies and room service you probably wouldn’t use anyway.
Locals recommend to book apartments in Belgrade around Dorcol for design galleries, cycling cafes, and hidden courtyards.

Neat, clean apartment, small but full of everything you need. There were all the groceries you could need. (oil, salt, sugar, coffee, tea…). The owner is very caring and polite, he allowed us to check in very early.
깨끗하고 친절합니다 위치도 좋고
What could be improved: 건물 입구에 이끼있는 바닥이 싫어요
Awesome location,very beautiful and cozy apartment, very pleasant host, will be coming again for sure
It was clean and useful. It was in the center and we didn't encounter any incomfortable situation. The price was very reasonable. I wqs a bit sceptic about it becuase I had to put my card but it wasn't charged. I underdtand that is for the sake of cancellation. The payment was in cash but everything went smoothly.
It’s in great location, even though it’s in center it’s quiet in the apartment. It’s clean and has everything that’s needed. Host is great and I’m recommending staying here!

Very friendly and helpful host. The apartment is amazing and at the perfect location in town. Extra points go because of the comfy bed & soft pillows for a good sleep.
What could be improved: We have nothing to complain about.
Owners are correct, professional. Apartment smells like pharmacy, everything is super clean, there is sugar, coffee and tea, clean towels, all the details and everything you could need.
It is a small but very clean and cute apartment.
It has clean towels and sheets, silver wear, coffee , tea in the kitchen, shampoo, conditioner and gels for shower.
Everything was very nice, the owner was polite.
We had a holiday with the family for 12 days 22.06-04.07.24. Super flat, super cool host. I immediately responded to all the questions.
The apartment is located almost in the centre of Belgrade. Entrance from the yard, 2nd floor. Public transport stop within a minute's walk. Opposite is a wonderful bakery. The owner of the apartment met us, showed/explained/told everything, decorated the white cardboard. The apartment has everything you need. There are a lot of places, very comfortable. We recommend this accommodation facility to everyone! Many thanks to Ratko for the hospitality!
The apartment is a very clean and comfortable and well organised one. It is small but adequate in terms of facilities and size. The hosts were very helpful and communicated quickly. I would choose this place again. The location is good at about 500 m away from Republic Square, the National Museum, and the National Theatre. It is easy to take many buses from the location of the apartment.
What could be improved: It's not something that I didn't like it at all, but it is good to know that you enter the apartment via a rather derelict looking courtyard and set of terraces. It is an old building and the original structure is the same. It looks a little alarming when you enter the apartment you will find everything new and clean and comfortable. I liked being able to see the way people lived in the past in this type of urban residential building.
