Wellness & Spa

The hotel's SPA center offers complimentary access to a sauna and a jacuzzi for all guests. Massage and other therapy treatments are available at a surcharge. The sauna and jacuzzi are small - the jacuzzi holds a maximum of three to four people - so guests may need to reserve time.

“The hotel's central location is a definite advantage for exploring Sofia's attractions, though some aspects of the wellness facilities miss the mark. Rooms are well-appointed and comfortable, but the spa falls short of expectations. Overall, a solid choice for those prioritizing location over extensive spa amenities.”
