Great location. Wide range of breakfast options. Excellent staff.
Pros:

The hotel literally had the best view of the St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, one of Sofia's principal attractions. It had a fantastic view of the city and close to Vetosha Blvd (around 1o minute walk). The staff were all very helpful and very professional. Great breakfast.

Cons:

The pillows were too thin and needs to be replaced.

Perfecto hotel para unos días en Sofia
Pros:

La ubicación, el personal, el desayuno, las instalaciones, la cama, el baño… todo

Cons:

Que la habitación no subía de 18-19°
Al parecer había un problema con la calefacción que solo funcionaba la refrigeración.
