Dominic Smart & Luxury Suites - Parliament

Very nice hotel in Belgrade. The ladies are polite and helpful. It's convenient to go around for the classical views.

For people from the United Kingdom Serbia is not we'll known as a holiday destination. Although we [the UK] enjoy relatively large communities from the Balkans our holiday destinations are largely limited to Croatia, Slovenia with a smattering of Montenegro. If I was going to see the world then Belgrade had to be next on my list. This would be country #125. A two-hour and twenty-five minute flight from Luton, the only UK destination that we could find that flew directly, brought us to Belgrade. A historic city in transformation; craving modernity - a poster for a fifties spy film. The architecture had the look and feel of Eastern Europe. Our accommodation was the Dominic Parliament Luxury Suites; located centrally opposite the nations National Assembly building. The outside of the suites are quite unremarkable, they could be missed easily in a sea of rendered buildings. Inside, however, is a different story. Located on the fourth floor the suites have a contemporary finish executed to a high standard. The shower room had a glass wall, a clear glass wall!, separating it from the sleeping accommodation - nicely done even down to the curtain to spare anyone's blushes whilst taking a number two. Our room even had a name 'Sarah' how cute. A fitted wide screen TV and bed head that extended into the ceiling completed the look, top marks. There is enough storage for a week long trip and a mini bar that was very reasonably priced - I like this place. We took the stairs avoiding the exposed iron lift that looked straight out of a bond set. I expected to see Sir Sean Connery diving out of the lift doors, mid floor, fighting a chiseled well built man who has taken a dislike to him. The suites are ideally located for... well.. everything. Recent history for Serbia has left its mark on Belgrade, the Radio & Television of Serbia building is yards away. The Yugoslav Ministry of Defence building and Belgrade Fortress are both within easy walking distance - so are all of the shops restaurants and bars that anyone could ask for. A little further away but still within walking distance is the magnificent [The] Temple of Saint Sava. Love Belgrade and the Dominic Parliament Luxury Suites, full marks. I absolutely recommend it.
