Really nice hotel. Clean and the room was comfortable and large.

Pros: Fantastic location. Really nice room. Heating was great. Staff friendly. There is a very convenient cafe linked to the hotel which provides lovely meals

Cons: Smoking in public areas is allowed in Bulgaria so the corridors smelt of smoke

Katerina 9/10

Pros: Great location. The rooms are small but clean and comfortable. Breakfast in the cafe was amazing!

Cons: It is right next to a busy crossroad with windows to the street so very noisy day and night.

Belgin 10/10
Turkey 🇹🇷

Pros: The location is exceptional. Walkable distance to the main monuments, streets and attractions in the centre. There is also a metro station right in front of the hotel. The room we stayed had an amazing view towards the Lions Bridge. It was quite and clean. The restaurant where you do your breakfast is actually a city restaurant which has a menu for the hotel customers. Plenty of delicious choices, hot or cold, stylishly done. Both hotel and restaurant stuff were helpful and friendly. Thank you guys.
