The Ambassador Hotel
Trg Kralja Milana bb
Expect ~€30 breakfast included

The tallest building on the central square, dominates the downtown area, and is one of the few options for visitors on a budget. The rooms are not as cheap as one might expect and feel a little outdated but they are comfortable enough and the hotel is in a great location. If you want a real Yugo experience, try this hotel, dark brown formica fittings, appliances that might or might not work, and an amazing restaurant with retro sculptures and chandeliers, a flashback to the 60s. €42 for an apartment with en-suite.

Niška Banja the Spa has a couple of older but decent hotels, such as Ozren, with prices from 24 Euro for a single room incl breakfast. Alternatively, it may be possible to arrange a home-stay in Niška Banja. In November 2006, usual price per person per bed per night, was 500 dinars about 6 Euros. Still, the Spa is a few kilometers away from the town, so a bus or taxi ride to the center is inevitable.
