I was not impressed by the hotel's failure to provide the shuttle service, as promised and confirmed. There were also 2 items missing from my mini-bar when I arrived at my room. However, the team at Reception, led by Magdalena, sorted everything out on the morning following my arrival After that, everything went as perfectly as I could have wanted.

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.
