Great hotel very close to main attractions, with spacious rooms and an excellent staff. (Special thanks to Ivailo who made our stay especially memorable with his willingness to help and his wonderful sense of humor.) As a bonus, the hotel also contains the largest collection of contemporary Bulgarian art--there's fabulous art everywhere, the lobby, hallways, individual rooms, breakfast area, everywhere. The pool and fitness room are really nice; the pool requires a swim cap so be sure to take one.

Art lovers hotel

The distinctiveness of Angel is the art work displayed throughout the hotel. In my brief stay I had the chance to enjoy some of the paintings and sculptures. There a casino onsite where smoking is clearly permitted. The breakfast is ample both in choice and quantity. Good location.

Great! Nice rooms, but No pool access

Great location. Had a huge room, was very nicely done, nice breakfast. Parking is 10 euro. Only complaint is pool is not part of hotel and if you want to use it is very expensive. So why have photos and promote having a pool? And why email me aaying i have access to pool, I dont!

Worth the money but that's it

Definitely not clean enough, the floor in the bathroom was dirty, the sheets has strange smell, the keyboard was broken and etc. It doesn't felt like 5* hotel, although the room itself was very big and has a king size bed. The location is also good, 10-15 minutes from Vitosha street. The staff was nice and very friendly.
