“This hotel benefits from a practical location near Sofia's bus and railway stations, putting key transport links within easy reach, and several rooms include desirable balconies; the on-site restaurant also earns praise for its traditional Bulgarian cuisine. While rooms are efficiently sized and furnished, the overall impression is one of solid value for a short stay. It's a dependable choice when accessibility is a priority.”
