Venue
The 1st Congress of Geneticists in Bosnia and Herzegovina with international participation
will be held in 4* Hotel Holiday located in the center of Sarajevo.
Hotel Holiday, the successor of the famous “Holiday Inn” hotel, designed by renowned
Bosnia and Herzegovina’s architect Ivan Štraus, was built in 1982-1983 for the purpose of
hosting the guests of XIV Winter Olympic Games. It has become an icon and the landmark of
the city. Recently, it was acquired by the Europe group, well established and highly
respected hotelier corporation.
In addition to comfortable and spacious areas dedicated to rest and pleasure, the hotel also
offers one of the largest congress centers with nine air-conditioned halls.
