Podoleanu, Romania

This place had a lot of funky character and the staff was great. Our room was on the third floor and had a little balcony - large enough to sit on and watch the city. The two gentlemen who were there for check-in and check-out were eager to be helpful and genuinely nice people. The location was perfect - halfway between the transport hub (bus and train) and the main sights and easily walkable to everything. A great choice for Sofia, and I highly recommend it.

Lo staff è stato molto cortese, gentile e disponibile; avevo prenotato una stanza doppia con colazione per due notti ma, per motivi inerenti alle tempistiche per arrivare in aeroporto e tornare a casa, l'ultima mattina non abbiamo fatto colazione: lo staff ci ha offerto snack da mangiare durante il viaggio di ritorno. Inoltre, la prima colazione ci è stata portata in camera.

Stay in the Heart of Sofia –

Set in a renovated 19th-century building, Shans 2 Hotel is just off Marie Louise Boulevard and less than 0.6 mi from the Alexander Nevski Cathedral. Close to restaurants and bars, the sunny rooms with attached bathroom have air conditioning and cable TV.

Free Wi-Fi access as well as free city maps are available at the lobby. Reception is open 24 hours, and the staff can arrange car rentals and laundry services upon request. Hairdryers, ironing facilities, kettle or toaster are available free of charge at the reception.

Serdika Metro Station, on the M1 line, is just 1,650 feet away from Hotel 2 Shans. The Sofia Synagogue is just 5 minutes’ walk down the road. Tram and bus stops are in the immediate vicinity, while Sofia Central Railway Station and the Central Bus Station are 2,950 feet away.

Centrum is a great choice for travelers interested in churches, budget-friendly traveling and monuments.

This is our guests' favorite part of Sofia, according to independent reviews.

It's not a hotel, it's more like a hostel even with private bathroom, room was not clean at all with strong smell and coacroaches on the floor if you turn on the light during the night... Was very disapointed.. For the room they're offering they should put lower price or renowate at least with fresh painting
Location is great really close to the city center

The room was located one step of the reception, and hence quiet noisy. I had to sleep with year plugs, that I bring for sleeping in dorms.. Overall value for money is ok, good if needed to spend a night, but the general feeling was not so great, not a place I would choose to return to.
