Consistently courteous staff, fantastic service. Neat room and luxurious bathroom. The hotel was in the center of Sofia, and we were relatively close to One to One. Plus it was in a downtown area. It was a really great stay, you could leave a car nearby.

It is undoubtedly a SUPERIOR option when in Sofia. Adjacent to the downtown, 5 minutes on foot. Truly enjoyed that they had onsite restaurant GRAND CAFE, no need to go somewhere else. The view from our balcony over the city was magnificent. Besides, free parking was a highlight.
