I will not come back to this hotel. On the top floor there is a noisy club that plays loud music until 1.30 AM. Even NINE floors below it you still can hear it. The window curtain allows a lot of light to enter the room just after the sunrise, so you can sleep just a few hours. The breakfast is decent

The property was clean and innovative. The front desk unfriendly and I felt I was disturbing when asked few questions. My room (suit for 3) was not set up for 3 but only for two people. The housekeeper was very friendly and helped us setting it up quickly but the front desk seemed to be irritated because she was asked. Not enough charging outlets in the room. Not a single one in the bedroom - only 2 for the nightstands but they were behind the bed stand so if you want to charge your phone at night you can’t. Overall a good property but the front desk staff should be more friendly and welcoming.

Nice hotel, spacious and comfortable room. There is a tram stop, close to the hotel, and two of the trams stopping there (No5 and No15) are going to the city centre. The hotel personnel could be a bit friendlier, and the breakfast buffet - better. Most of the "hot dishes" were not hot at all, and on some days the variety was definitely lesser.

When I checked in there was bed linen on the floor from the previous occupant and the garbage had not been emptied. The shower was only lukewarm in the evening and again later in the morning. The breakfast was good and plentiful except the eggs were cold so I just didn't eat them. Good location for my purposes.

Chose this hotel for the proximity to the main road out of Sofia - early morning departure meant we needed to avoid city traffic. Was perfect for that. Room was really nice. Comfy beds, great shower. All staff we interacted with were helpful and nice. Note: If you want access to the casino and are not Bulgarian, take a passport. They wont accept any other ID. Breakfast buffet was nice, good selection as you'd expect. Shame it was all luke warm. Would definitely stay again.

Nice hotel. Terrible service.

Nice hotel in a casino building. Confused and unhelpful staff. We arrived to check in. Although they could see our booking in the system, they could not give us a room until something ? happened in the system. We couldn’t get our room for 4 hours. After an hour, we eventually left to see the city. There was no apology, no offer of anything to compensate - not even a coffee. It was odd and rude and very off-putting.

Don't try it, money wasted for nothing

It was the worst hotel experience in my history of traveling, first they could not find my booking, then my assistant paid another room, then they still charged my card for the booking they could not find, after fighting them they say the money will be returned but if I said nothing they would not refund, the breakfast was terrible cold and with hair and scrambled eggs with eggshells in it, if this is a for star hotel, then I'll try book 8 star next time. I reported the complete incident to my friends in the government and we consider to recommend our organizations to stop using hotels. Com as well.

Breve soggiorno

Mi sono sentita un po’ come una cliente di seconda categoria. Siamo arrivati, 2 adulti e un ragazzo di 13 anni, abbiamo fatto il check-in ,andiamo in camera ,solo un letto matrimoniale e solo 2 set di asciugamani , nonostante in camera c’era una poltrona che diventava letto. Ho chiesto di preparare il letto per nostro figlio,visto che paghiamo per 3 , al mio ritorno in camera ho trovato solo le lenzuola sopra il divano , dovevamo rifare il letto da soli , niente asciugamani . Avevo chiesto di pagare in euro mi hanno detto che non è possibile, o leva , o con la carta , io non volevo pagare con la carta e non avevo i leva , quindi? Meno male che il gentile signore della sicurezza è andato a cambiare gli euro in casinò. Ho viaggiato a lungo e largo tutta la Bulgaria e non mi era mai successo di non poter pagare in euro, comunque, sono scelte, però è sempre un disagio per il cliente. L’aria condizionata non funzionava come si deve , dentro la camera era una sauna, l’ho fatto presente, ma sicuramente non si poteva fare niente. La colazione era abbastanza buona, continentale,minimo indispensabile. Parcheggi a pagamento anche per gli ospiti dell’hotel, 25 leva x H24. Peccato , è un bel hotel ,sarei tornata volentieri, la pulizia impeccabile e lo staff gentile, però servizi zero e l’aria condizionata malfunzionante.
