Clean, elegant, perfect location, quiet, room make twice daily, kettle in the room.

Aviad, Israel

The experience is excellent from check in to check out. From the great service, to the clean and spacious rooms, to the well stocked facilities and pretty much all five star experience is topped up by the view of Votosha mountain out of your balcony. Amazing place for recreation and business in the heart of Sofia.

The bar on park side terras closed very early for very unclear reason and they were changing the tables and chairs while we tried to enjoy our drinks. The rooms were large but dark with hardly window. Previous time we were upgraded to the panorama rooms. Not now. All in all certainly not exceeded expectations this time and as a result quite expensive.
Great location in the center of Sofia.

“An unexpected stay at a gem of a hotel - we booked for the car park but the hotel has a lot more to offer! ”
- • Leisure trip

- • Superior Room with Restaurant Discount
- • Stayed 1 night

The length of our stay was too short! The gym facilities are a little basic. However, this is coming from someone who spends a lot of time at the gym and has specific training goals. For the majority of people the gym facilities would be more than adequate. With treadmills and a variety of resistance machines. The inclusion of a spa and steam room/sauna is also great. Although I didn’t get to make use of these facilities.
The size of the room was somewhat unexpected. I’ve not experienced a more spacious room since staying at tie Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas. The accommodation was grand, the bed was comfortable and the generous size bathroom featuring a bath and decent quality shower was the icing on the cake. The staff were, I feel the jewel in the crown of this hotel. They were incredibly polite, very efficient and could not do more to make your stay a pleasure. Furthermore the free car parking on site in the underground car park was a welcome facility and essential as we had hired a car for the duration of our stay. We didn’t eat in the restaurant but the breakfast was very good quality and again the staff were keen to ensure you had all you needed.

Absolutely disgusting. The bathrobe in this 'five star hotel' was completely torn, huge holes. The shower was broken and not cleaned - empty bottles on the floor from previous guests. There was a mad party going on in an area right in front of my room the entire night, with a DJ and music so loud my entire room was shaking. Waiters shouting in front of my door. Staff at reception wasn't bothered at all. Unbelievable.

“Classic grand hotel in excellent location - sometimes noisy though at night”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Executive Room with Free Drink Voucher
- • Stayed 3 nights
Staff at reception was kind of neutral and seemed pretty disinterested, e.g. no questions whether we liked our stay. Concierges were friendly but unfortunately not very knowledgable, e.g. had difficulties in arranging tours to the nearby monasteries although this would have been quite straightforward. There is a clear disadvantage of this hotel: this is the ballroom. At three nights there were large parties with a lot of noise and bass tunes until very late, which we heard even in our room on 7th floor. We believe that the noise may have been unbearable in rooms from 1st to 5th floor. Slow Wifi.
Excellent location in the city centre, classic grand hotel style, which is unusual in today´s times, in a modern hotel building, very large high quality rooms and bathrooms, good breakfast quality with a lot of choices.
