Hotels near Zhiten, Sofia Municipality, Sofia

the room was satisfactory at a whole, esp with the little balcony attached for a small laundry zone, electric water kettle for making hot tea, a small refrigerator for use, a big plastic bucket in bathroom and hair dryer provided. The lightings are bright enough. TV also offered a few channels. if a microwave or a small oven could be provided by the hotel for customers reheating their takeaway food or bread, alongside with a mini size folderable tea table, they would definitely earn an extra score by all customers.

Location strategica, vicina a tutto, a cominciare dalla fermata della metro Serdika che dista 3 minuti a piedi e collega direttamente all'aeroporto. Zona centralissima, vicina alle strade della movida, e al contempo riservata e silenziosa. Accanto al Palazzo presidenziale (il nostro Quirinale), al parlamento, al palazzo reale, al museo Archeologico ... e potrei continuare per le tante mete . Personale gentilissimo che risolve in un attimo qualsiasi problema. Ci tornerò!

I've never stayed anywhere else in Sofia so cannot comment on whether this is great for Sofia, but international 4* standard, it isn't. Most of the staff are lovely, apart from the member of staff who decided one evening that we were not allowed to have a glass of wine in the lobby bar because the bottle of wines were ”reserved” and ”for show” (the excuse changing from one minute to the next.) He couldn't explain who or why they were reserved or for show. The room servicing is, *interesting*. They say in the information in the room that the rooms are serviced daily. On the first day it wasn't serviced at all. The second, I asked it to be serviced and the towels replaced which they did but then (not joking) they screwed up the cover on the bed and put it in the corner, made half an effort to pull up the duvet, emptied a bin and did nothing else. Coffee and tea making facilities in the room is a real plus but they were not refreshed / refilled during our stay either, even when the room was ”serviced”. The bed was comfortable but one of those fit together beds rather than a true king size. It was huge but possible to get a bit caught in the middle. That said though, we didn't struggle with noise as other people did. The breakfast is fine. Typical central European type stuff and not the best quality but fresh fruit is always welcome. If it's a choice between room only at a cheaper price, I wouldn't recommend paying extra for it though. The door lock was a bit temperamental. It's worth checking it's genuinely locked behind you as ours didn't unless we carefully engaged the catch. There are safes though. The lifts were a bit dodgy as well. One obviously breaking down from time to time during our stay and be warned you need your room card to go up or down. Location wise it's superb and I'm not saying I wouldn't stay there again but for the price, which is not cheap for Sofia, the service needs a bit of an uplift. Also some attention to detail in the rooms would be good with a slight tear in the voile, wallpaper lifting etc. For British visitors though as this hotel is part of a Cooperative organisation, they have pictures of the first Rochdale COOP in some of the corridors. A funny little quirk if you know Rochdale. It's not the place you'd choose to decorate anywhere.

Typical 4* hotel. Near walk to the center about 15 minutes. Close rooms. You can open windows. Clean. Clean. Every day cleaned. Unreliable breakfasts. Even ice-cream eggs and planted eggs. Fat coffee with milk in powder. On the floor ****** that at night attracts the whistle-blowing types. Very expensive parking is 25 euros a day.

Right next to the major walking street in town and minutes away from outstanding restaurants. Large rooms with views and automatic blinds to darken the room. The elevators are a bit confusing as only one goes from the reception to all floors while two others only go to first floor (and strangely say for only one person; come on!). Don't be put off by the reception which is so unimpressive that you think you are going into a dive-hotel. We didn't choose to pay Euro 12 per person due to all the bad reviews on breakfast but there are many places to eat near by; just be aware that places don't serve breakfast before 8:00 and many not before 9:00!!

We stayed here for two nights - if you appreciate good contemporary design, you will love this place. Everything seems to have been designed, from the full height floor to ceiling doors everywhere, the fancy light switches, the Uber comfy beds. This place is great, very courteous, informative & polite service staff. We didn’t eat here as we’re limited on time but it did look like it would have been good. Perfect location just off the Vitosha Boulevard which seems to be the main ***** where most stuff happens. Definitely stay here next time we visit Sofia.

Missed the connection and had to book a hotel near the airport. This Ibis is fine for the night on a stopover but not much to do around. Still ended up going to town to eat and have a look around so would have been just as easy, and a bit cheaper, if I would have picked a city hotel. The room was two single beds and nothing much else included, reasonably clean but still expensive bearing in mind it is Bulgaria. Fine for late arrival and short stay if booked early.

I missed my flight at sofia airport so had to book a hotel for one night. So I went for a mid range hotel. It was better than mid range. Lovely helpful staff on reception, an aceptable price with thier discount....paid 68 euros for a large kingsize bed with onsuite bathroom. Comfortable bed, fresh pillows (very snazzy cushions too) and a nice relaxing corner sofa, reasonable TV and every thing was realyl clean. Complimentary coffee and tea, which is not the norm in Bulgaria, nice and quiet, was lovely and warm. Actualyl a bit too warm and I couldnt turn the heating down so I had to sleep wit hte fridge open to cool off as aircon didnt work. THis was the only negative for me. They did an airport pickup, but not a drop off and this nearly stopped me booking, as they should have told me this at the begining, however they were saved by the fact the metro was 4 stops to the airport and cost me 1.60 leva, so about 70p. I picked up food from the little shops in the metro, as I hit a holiday so the restaurants close by were closed. A very lovely stay and Id go there again. AND they had these lovely drop lights near the bed as side lights, some veyr nice touches, clean crisp sheets, soft towels and nice soaps etc and they dont ask you to leave till 12 lunch time. My photo doesnt do the room justice
