Top Sofia University Hotel Reviews

Grand Hotel Sofia

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was centrally located and very nice. We were upgraded to a very large, comfortable room. Beds were comfortable. We had the breakfast included and it was very good. We ate in the hotel restaurant twice and it was good food with fast service. We used the parking which was convenient and the gym, which was small but adequate. Our only complaint (and I wish premium hotels would just not do this ever!) was that they only included two coffee pods the first day and after that they were 2.50 Euro each. It just seems cheap and it’s annoying."

Rosslyn Thracia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent place to stay, excellent value."

Best Western Terminus Hotel

Slavyanska Beseda Hotel

8/10 Good

"Na pierwszy rzut oka hotel nie wygląda na luksusowy ale takim nie musi wcale być. Najważniejsze, że pokoje są dobrze urządzone i czyste - wygodne łóżko oraz balkon ze stolikiem i fotelem. Dla gości kawa, herbata i czajnik elektryczny do samodzielnego przygotowania sobie napojów. Ale jest również hotelowe bistro. Obsługa hotelowa sympatyczna i pomocna we wszystkim, zarówno na recepcji jak i wśród pań pokojowych. Hotel położony w bardzo dobrym punkcie Sofii, zarówno do zabytków, do dworców jaki do centrum."

Crystal Palace Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing little gem in Sofia. I will be back at this hotel. Hotel staff was great and helpful."
