Modern and upgrade palatial hotel
Very friendly and professional front-desk. Check-in was easy (6pm on a Friday). A nice, comfortable and clean hotel. I like the modern upgrades of this vintage hotel. Location is at the center of town, steps away from the Metro station, and walking distance to the sights.

Old world style hotel with beautiful rooms very close to Serdica metro and major sights in Sofia. The square outside is being refurbished with a little noise discernible during the day. Otherwise, staff efficient, attentive and pleasant. A comfortable stay.
