Nice and clean but…

Nice, clean, new hotel. However, there was a party in the restaurant on the ground floor and we could hear the thumping of the music all the way to the 5th floor till 2am. Also, apparently, in late May, it is not hot enough to have the AC running so we had to open the balcony door to let cool air in during the night. This made the music even more audible.

Room was great and we enjoyed the Greek restaurant. We picked this hotel for the pool but we’re not able to use it. It closes at 1900 in evening and the morning held a private event for families with small children from 900-1330. There is an extra charge to use sauna and steam rooms.

If you want to be slightly outside the tourist area of Sofia… I would recommend this area including visiting the student area and it’s trendy bars
