Like a bright butterfly emerging from its long over-wintering chrysalis, Serbia is emerging with shimmering wings and a love for life’s pleasures that give it an endearing simplicity and warmth. Nowhere more so than in the capital Belgrade. The newly found spirit of spontaneity has made Belgrade the newest rival to Berlin as an exciting cultural centre with a carefree party spirit. In the middle of the maelstrom, the four-star Mama Shelter Belgrade knows how to be part of the fun and also provides a soothing cocoon of home comforts.
Even sophisticated travellers love being able to retreat to a home-like atmosphere, especially when setting out on new explorations. If you haven’t been to Belgrade before, you’re in for a treat, and if you have, a stay in this warm and welcoming hotel will enhance the excitement of the city with some welcoming, revitalising relaxation.
This out-of-the-ordinary establishment enthusiastically engages with the youthful spirit of the city. It shows a liberated and expansive mood and an intimate ambience throughout. This is reflected in the cosy cushions, insouciant swirls of the two-tone floor tiling and, above all, in the good humour and easy-going feel in the rooms, the lovely rooftop terrace and in the Mama Shelter restaurant.
This is where you will find echoes of Belgrade’s southern heritage, brought deliciously to life with an Italian-style pizza lovingly produced from a wood-fired oven, and traditional Serbian specialities based on the simple attributes of generosity, simplicity and tastiness. The layout is an invitation to conviviality. The bar occupies centre stage, surrounded by an open kitchen and beautifully designed dining area. Outside, the huge terrace is cheerfully decorated with little lights of every imaginable colour. It offers not only wonderful views of the city but also an outdoor bar, a giant foosball table, table tennis and a laid-back ambience all its own. At the Mama Shelter Belgrade, you can feel completely at home.
