Good clean rooms. Close to transport. Has airport shuttle if required. Front reception staff especially Rosen are more than helpful. He is a credit to the company. Overall a great hotel, a little far from downtown but easy to get to by bus. Close to airport and huge shopping mall next door.

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.

Nice hotel with breakfast

Welcoming staff, nice breakfast with savory and sweet offerings. Only 1 coffee machine available all 3 mornings so long line was over 5 minutes as it is a busy tour pickup/drop off hotel. Large mall next door for any needs. Hotel is off the main highway into city center - 15 minutes no traffic, ~45 with traffic. The rooms facing the road provide a nice view of the mountains.

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).
