Sofias sidewalks are not to be believed!

Noise in streetside rooms was BAD from 0500 to 1900 with windows closed. Can’t imagine them open. Location leaves you a modest walk. Nice breakfast. Helpful staff.

Nice big rooms. Stuff was friendly. The room was not that modern but ok. Good breakfast. The room on the street side was noisy and it was a bit hot in the room. (The AC was not working yet). But for the price it was a nice hotel.

Nice, centrally located hotel

Nice hotel centrally located to most tourist sites (15-20 minutes walk) and close to public transport (5-10 mins walk). The room was clean and comfortable, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast buffet was good with many hot and cold options. The wifi also worked well. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others.

Hotel is no problem but I’ve stayed a few times now and there’s always been a lot of noise . This time it was students staying and they were shouting and screaming and running about corridor and slamming doors. I expected staff to hear this or see it in the security cameras and come and warn them to settle down but . Other than that the hotel is fine
