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.

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.
