Hotel is nicely located by the Business Park area. Easy access to transportation. Breakfast is phenomenal. Air-conditioning in our room needs upgrade it couldn't quite keep up with the heat of summer. Other than that it was great.

Excellent new hotel
I stayed in a two bedroom apartment with the family for 3 nights. I was impressed by the quality of the hotel and level of service. It is ideally located between two metro stations with a quick access to city center. The sky bar overlooks the Vitosha mountain. Staff is friendly, breakfast delicious, and overall a great value for the money.

Excellent hotel and great value for money
Excellent hotel and great value for money! We had the Double Room and breakfast included for a bargain! The breakfast was varied enough with the best omelette in town! The hotel is 20 minutes metro ride from Serdika! A Lidl store is just behind the hotel. I would highly recommend it.

Great for business trips
Standard hotel with truly wonderful service. Close to the airport and with connections (about 20 minutes) to Sofia city center. The shuttle service to and from the airport is quick and cheap (20€ r/t). No frills. Would stay again.

The Hotel is brand new. The beds are very comfortable. The staff is helpful and the breakfast buffett has a nice selection. I would definitely recommend the hotel. It is close the business district, which is convenient for meetings.

The hotel room is very spacious, clean, and modernized style. Staff was friendly, fluent in English, and took the time to help me in all my concerns. The hotel is a few minutes walk from an outlet center and bus stops to access the rest of the city. If I'm ever in Sofia again, this is where I'm staying, no doubt about it!

Save yourselves the trouble; don't stay here
The hotel is in a convenient area right by the metro station, but also situated by a very busy highway. We chose to stay there because of free parking (There was no sign for guest parking. We just guessed that it was in front of the hotel and parked there). The room was clean and decent. But, on a warm day in Sofia, the hotel decided not to turn the A/C on and leave the hotel on ventilate (this is according to what the staff told us). Around 8-9 PM, I informed a male staff that the room was very hot and asked him how to turn on A/C in our room. He told us that temperture was centrally controlled. The control panel in our room only controlled fan speed. He said they didn't have A/C on at the time. He said he would ask the manager to turn A/C on in the morning. At 12:30AM, the room temperture was up to 26.5 C (79.7 F). We tried leaving the window opened because by that time, it was a lot cooler outside, but we couldn't sleep because there was still a fair amount of traffic noise from the highway. We were on the second floor. My husband called and asked again if the A/C could be turned on. The staff said he could not turn it on, only the manager could. He said there was nothing he could do for us. We ended up checking out at 1 AM with the same male staff that we talked to both times. There was no apology from him and all we got was a blank stare.

New hotel so everything is very clean and tidy. Only stayed 2 nights and did notice that shower gel was not replaced; not sure if this was an oversight or general practice.

Clean Hotel ...but
Friendly staff, clean rooms. However the room was missing some basic stuff. No body lotion, No conditioner, No iron or Iron Table, No coffee machine. Only one Bath Towel and Face towel. They dont refill the soap or shampoo on a daily basis. You have to ask. I find these items to be pretty standard in any hotel rooms. I asked the front desk about these items and they said "They are not included in the price". I should have checked. Since my parent company is in Sofia, I will be visiting Sofia very often. However this will not be my hotel in my future stays.

Dear Philip, Thank you very much for sharing your comments with us via Expedia. We were glad to find out that you enjoyed the Grami Hotel experience and remained almost happy with the hotel services and facilities. I am sorry you don’t feel like you received the right basic stuff and toiletries during your stay – my team and I take great pride in the service, comfort and hospitality we provide to our valued guests. Our clients' feedback is generally very positive and since we started in November 2017 we have consistently been rated one of Sofia’s top hotels. Grami Hotel Sofia is a 4* business style hotel and all the facilities are up to the state categorization requirements, therefore I cannot accept your comment "the room was missing some basic stuff". As a single traveler your room was prepared with a single set of towels due to our Enviroment safety policy. Even though, we would've given you some extra towels without any hesitation jusk by asking any of our team members. Body lotion or a conditioner are a must for a seaside hotel not for a city one and we cannot be blamed for not providing it. An iron, ironing table, pressing, dry cleaning, etc. are also provided upon request at Reception and clearly explained in the room directory. Tea and coffee sets are included in the price of our Executive room and Apartment Suites. The price tag for our standart rooms is tailored for business traveler spending most of their time in the office and leaving the coffee making to our baristas. I keep asking you and all of our clients if there is a problem during your stay, to come to me immediately and to resolve the situation or the shortage of shampoo on the spot. Looking forward to the pleasure of welcoming you back under our roof and I promise to make your experience more up to you! Sincerely, Ivan Kolaksazov, General Manager

Usually good but not this time
I booked and payed for a 2 bedroom apartment, but was downgraded to a simple room. No explanation from a very rude reception worker, except that I could not expect to get what I booked. And no discount offered, even if the room I was given was at least 25 euro cheaper than what I had payed. I have stayed at this hotel about 15 times before, and it has always been perfect. I hope next time it will be ok again, otherwise I will find different accomodation in Sofia for the future.
