The Bristol Belgrade invites you to step into a world where elegance, intellect, and inspiration converge. With our newest offer, La Femme, we pay homage to the iconic women who graced history with their brilliance and boldness. This unique experience combines sophisticated accommodation with spa indulgence, a specially designed menu inspired by the lyrical musings of Desanka Maksimović, and a toast to the legendary ladies who changed the course of culture.

Poetry on a Plate: A Menu Inspired by Desanka Maksimović

In The Dining room, where whispers of the past still dance between sun-dappled shadows, Chef Ivan Britka has crafted a menu inspired by Desanka Maksimović and her celebrated poem, Spring Song. Just as her verses captured the awakening of nature and the tenderness of love, each dish is a poetic expression of flavor. Fresh, vibrant ingredients reflect the blooming world Maksimović so beautifully painted with words.

Guided by the legacies of female culinary pioneers, Chef Ivan draws inspiration from the trailblazing women who redefined gastronomy. Every plate is a tribute, every flavor a verse, echoing their courage and creativity.

Cocktails for the Courageous: Toasting to Women Who Made History

At the Bar, Nikola Vajagić, has curated a cocktail menu that celebrates the pioneering women who forever changed the landscape of mixology. Each drink is a story, a tribute to the fearless females who not only mastered their craft but also broke barriers and challenged conventions.

Raise a glass to the legendary Ada Coleman, who created the iconic “Hanky Panky” in the early 1900s at the Savoy Hotel’s American Bar. A bold blend of gin, sweet vermouth, and a dash of Fernet Branca, this cocktail was made for a gentleman who asked for something “strong, but not too strong.” The result was a drink that perfectly balanced strength and elegance – much like the woman who crafted it.

Indulge in the “Pisco Sour,” a South American classic that whispers tales of Violeta Parra, the Chilean artist credited by many for popularizing this vibrant cocktail. A perfect mix of pisco, lemon or lime juice, sugar, egg white, and bitters, it embodies the spirit of creativity and cultural celebration.

Each of these cocktails is more than just a drink – it is a celebration of the women who defied expectations, embraced their passions, and crafted legacies that continue to inspire. At The Bristol Belgrade, we raise our glasses to them, and to every woman who follows in their footsteps.

A Spa Experience Like No Other: Honoring the Legacy of Ella Baché

The Bristol Belgrade’s Spa embraces the pioneering spirit of Ella Baché, the visionary woman who revolutionized skincare. In 1936, Ella Baché introduced the world to acid creams, a revolutionary invention that changed the beauty industry forever. Her belief in the power of active ingredients to enhance natural beauty is echoed in every treatment we offer.

Our spa celebrates this legacy by offering personalized indulgences designed to rejuvenate, empower, and inspire. Let time slip away as you experience the luxurious rituals inspired by the first lady of skincare.

A Tribute to the Women Who Shaped Art and Culture

Throughout The Bristol, art pays homage to the icons who inspired generations. From Jelena Žigon, whose elegance defined an era of theater and film, to Neda Arnerić and Ružica Sokić, whose talents captivated audiences and whose spirits continue to inspire – their stories echo through our halls, a testament to their enduring influence.

Every corner of The Bristol celebrates the fearless, the graceful, and the revolutionary. These women were more than icons – they were visionaries who changed the narrative, and they continue to inspire us to this day.

‘A Night to Remember: 1969, After Aznavour’s Concert

As the night falls, let us take you back to 1969, to an evening wrapped in melody and nostalgia. It was the night Charles Aznavour charmed Belgrade with his soulful chansons at Dom Sindikata.

After the concert, the city’s most dazzling women gathered in the main restaurant of The Bristol. Cigarette smoke curled gracefully to the ceiling as laughter echoed off the marble walls. Neda Arnerić and Milena Dravić exchanged stories of their latest film projects, while others recounted the enchantment of Aznavour’s voice. Their words were infused with dreams and ambition, their laughter a symphony of promise and passion.

They raised their glasses to the night, to each other, and to the adventures that awaited them. It was a moment frozen in time – a celebration of womanhood, creativity, and the magic of possibility.’

La Femme at The Bristol Belgrade: Where the past and present dance in harmony, and every woman is celebrated as a muse, a creator, and a legend.

Step into a world of elegance, inspiration, and nostalgia. Relive the magic. Be the story.
