Lovely two days stay at this hotel with walking distance to major attractions. Beautiful comfortable rooms.
Pros:

We had the superior room with a bathtub, it’s a spacious room, nicely decorated. Everything was functioning, clean and comfortable.

Cons:

We loved the unique design, the creativity of turn an old building into a unique modern hotel. The location is very good.

Pros:

Abbiamo soggiornato tre giorni presso 36 Design Hotel a Sofia e ci siamo trovati molto bene. La camera era pulita, ordinata e curata nei dettagli, il che ha reso il soggiorno davvero piacevole.
Il personale è stato sempre molto gentile e disponibile, pronto ad aiutarci per qualsiasi necessità. Le modalità di accesso alla stanza ci erano state spiegate in modo chiaro e semplice, quindi non abbiamo avuto alcun problema al nostro arrivo.
Abbiamo inoltre apprezzato molto la possibilità di lasciare i bagagli sia al check-in che al check-out
