Hotel Igman was designed by architect Ahmed Dzuvic in the early 80’s. It was built in Mt.Ingman for the Winter Olympic Games held in Sarajevo in 1984.

Hotel Igman had 162 rooms and an area of 5,102 square meters. On the main facade references to the traditional architecture of the Dinaric Alps houses in Bosnia can be read most clearly: the division of ground floor, central mass and a steep sloping roof. Read more about its structure here.

During the Balkan wars this hotel was completely devastated.
