Great property. The staff was amazing and always available to assist. I would definitely stay there again. The only con I have is that it is a little distant from the city center. But fun to walk if you like walking to get your steps in.

Great hotel, but a bit of a turn off when you show up 10 min before the end of breakfast and you are met with “you have 5 min to eat” from the not so happy to see you waitress. Shame that he service is such, as the hotel offers great convenient location for folks traveling in and out of Sofia internationally (airport is only 6 min by car).

Suzanne

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
the room was large and nicely furnished. HOWEVER, it was very warm because the property had already turned off the air conditioning & turned on the heat. Normally we would just open a window & problem solved but at this hotel the windows don't open! We left very early in the morning & didn't have the breakfast so I can't comment on the quality. But they did have coffee and some fruit put out for those with early departures, which was nice.
