City hotel guide
Pančevo
Pančevo, situated on the banks of the Danube and Tamiš rivers, serves as the administrative heart of the South Banat District in Vojvodina, Serbia. With a history dating back to 1153, this multi-ethnic city was once a vital mercantile hub and later gained city status in 1873. Today, it offers a distinct blend of industrial heritage, including its famous brewery and historic silk factory sites, alongside vibrant cultural events like the annual international carnival. For frequent-flyer hotel travelers, Pančevo provides a quieter alternative to Belgrade while maintaining strong economic ties to the capital. The city’s compact nature makes it easy to navigate, with key attractions and accommodations clustered near the riverfront and central districts. Its rich tapestry of Serbian, Hungarian, and German influences creates a unique atmosphere for visitors seeking authentic regional experiences beyond the typical tourist trail.

Dining
Langouste
Located on the edge of the historic centre, this restaurant boasts expansive picture windows that frame stunning views of the Sava River and the city’s contemporary skyline. Talented and passionate, youthful Marko Derić, back in Belgrade after honing his craft in several European restaurants, is now at the head of a creative, razor-sharp kitchen team. Marko’s culinary approach is rooted in Serbian traditions and produce, to which he gives a modern twist, drawing inspiration from French and Italian cuisines. Diners can choose between a range of menus: a five-course fish menu, a five-course meat

WebsiteIstok
Located just a stone’s throw from the lively town centre, this elegant restaurant, whose interior features an upmarket South Asian slant, serves modern comfort food from Vietnam, Korea, and Thailand. The dishes are generously laden and some are available in half portions, allowing diners to sample a range of specialities. We particularly enjoyed the pho soup, one of the establishment’s signature dishes, that can be customised with different ingredients according to personal taste. Each course is flanked by colourful, flavoursome dips that make the experience even more appetising.
WebsiteIva New Balkan Cuisine
The restaurant has moved to Svetog Save 14.A welcoming bistro with an extensive menu revealing a lineup of patriotic recipes that have been subtly overhauled but not to the detriment of their intrinsic character or flavour, largely thanks to the use of local ingredients. We particularly recommend the oxtail with caramelised onions, house-made gnocchi with veal brain and a reduction of bones.
WebsiteMezestoran Dvorište
The bright decor and colourful tableware of this restaurant reflect its happy-go-lucky, joyful Mediterranean spirit, as does the tempting culinary score, which includes chickpea fritters, tzatziki, different kinds of olives, typical ‘Dokos’ from Crete (imaginatively flavoured croutons), as well as chicken and pork gyros. A pleasant, informal setting in which to enjoy traditional Greek cuisine, flanked by an alfresco patio area in a refreshingly shady courtyard that further adds to its appeal and makes it very popular with locals.
WebsiteThe Twenty Two
Located on the rooftop of the Metropol Palace Hotel, this restaurant offers jaw-dropping views of the city skyline and St. Mark’s Church, along with delicious cocktails and gourmet international cuisine. Take your pick from the excellent steaks, (highly recommended), washed down by a choice of Serbian or international wines. It is just the ticket for an aperitif or a late-night drink with its soft background music.
WebsitePuter
This sleek, modern bistro stands just opposite the lively Kalenić market. The interior may be compact, but its trendy design and seamless bar service lend the place a bustling, playful vibe (booking ahead is recommended if you want to be sure of a table). True to bistro traditions, the menu is simple and classical as it balances purebred Serbian recipes - the horseradish-leaf rolls filled with ham hock are excellent, as is the slow-braised lamb with roasted eggplant, kaymak fondue and bay leaf oil, with French accents, such as foie gras, snails and Camargue rice, which occasionally even make t
WebsiteKlub Književnika by Branko Kisic
The youthful chef of this culinary and cultural landmark, popular with the locals and tourists alike, has been at the helm since 2019. Diners can choose to eat in a winter garden or in the dining room, often accompanied by live music during the colder months. The menu showcases a patriotic Serbian lineup, including the Krempita dessert that has been served here since the restaurant opened in 1946, and other Serbian specialties (there’s a 25-minute wait for the savoury Gibanica dish), with the occasional interesting, personalised touch and a focus on plating. Since it opened at the end of the S
WebsiteSkyLounge
On the eighth floor of the Hilton Hotel, the stylish dining room, enhanced by soft lighting and music, perfectly embodies the plush, international vibe one expects from such an establishment. The culinary score demonstrates a similar global leaning with Asian-inspired dishes such as Tom Yum soup, Gyoza dumplings, and a wide range of nigiri, sashimi and maki rolls. Simpler and occasionally Mediterranean recipes, both meat and fish, are presented tableside from a trolley, along with crab, lobster and a selection of fresh salads.
