Ramada by Wyndham Sofia City Center

8/10 Good

"A limpeza do quarto foi muito nal feita noa dias que ficamos, a banheira estava vazando agua embaixo e os travesseiros eram muito ruins. Pedi mais dois, mesmo assim não estava confortável. A localização é excelente e o atendimento do pessoal maravilhoso."

Grand Hotel Sofia

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel for location, space, and functionality. May appear dated to some, however was clean, well maintained, and otherwise comfortable spacious room. Short walk to area amenities, transit, and attractions. Staff were attentive/courteous to inquiry. Would stay again for central location/access to transit and Vitosha Street."

Metropolitan Hotel Sofia, a member of Radisson Individuals

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel rooms were very modern and seemed recently refurbished, at least on the floor we were allocated to. Beds were comfortable and linens of good quality. The bathroom was spacious and toiletries of good quality. We had several rooms in our party and the hotel ensured we were in rooms close to each other, which was appreciated. Although the rooms appeared clean, there could be more attention to detail. One of our party received a cut from broken glass shards, which had been left under the rug by a previous occupant. When the reception was informed it was promptly cleaned, but the apology was not really adequate. Other than that, the staff were helpful. The reception space was nice, if a little dark. We never had to wait long for lifts. The breakfast was really good, with lots of options allowing for different choices over our stay of a few days. The restaurant area, and the bar, were pleasant. The only issue was that the hot plates were not sufficient, so almost always the hot options were barely warm or even almost cold. That was a little disappointing, but could be easily rectified. The hotel is a little out of the city, but it could be easily reached by bus or car. There was always space for our car in the parking area. Our towels were changed every day, even though we followed the instructions to spare them being washed. Meanwhile, we would rather have had one change of our bed linen during the stay instead. Overall, a nice hotel, which I would be happy to recommend."

Best Western Terminus Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff at this hotel was just excellent. From the two women who ran the breakfast in the morning to the people at reception. They were helpful, polite, prompt, friendly. The location is excellent, too - right by the central bus and train stations with lots of bus, tramway and metro connections available. Our room had a bit of a cleanliness issue which we reported to the staff and they seemed concerned. The surface of everything was very clean but a look under the bed or under a mattress was a bit gross. "

What other neighbourhoods are similar to Bistritsa?
