Great location in Ruse

A friendly hotel in a superb location. By the Danube and just a few minutes walk to the centre of town. The beds are very large and extremely comfortable. Enjoyed the breakfast. It was a good mix of traditional Bulgarian fare and cooked items

Cons:

Nothing that we didnt like

Sehr gutes Hotel für einen Aufenthalt in Ruse, auch sehr gut gelegen.
Pros:

Wir waren schon zum zweiten Mal dort. Sehr schön direkt an der Donau gelegen. Gutes Frühstück, freundliche Mitarbeiter, ist sowohl für Urlaub als auch für Geschäftsreisen gut geeignet. Die Innenstadt ist nur einen kurzes Spaziergang entfernt.

Pros:

The hotel looks to be renovated, which is a plus. Rooms were clean and we had no facility issues. Parking was very tight, but was free. The view is nice (on the higher floors), overlooking the river.

Cons:

The hotel has 3 restaurants, but none of them are technically operated by the hotel (as far as i understood from reception). The problem i had is that when we were being given the room keys at reception we werent notified that the restaurants wont be open for us, as all of them turned out to be fully booked, so at around 9 PM when we got to the hotel we were unpleasantly surprised that we had nowhere to have dinner. Fortunately close by there are a few good options for dinner.

Falso 4*
Pros:

quarto grande com vista do Danubio. Percebe-se que o hotel precisa manutenção. Café da manhã bem razoavel . Estacionamento bom e incluso na tarifa

Cons:

Atendimento da recepcionista chefe muito ruim . Em compensação o outro recepcionista muito cortês.
Amanhecemos com um vazamento de agua do andar superior no banheiro. Escorria agua do teto na bancada da pia. e molhava tudo ao redor. O maximo que recebemos foi um pedido de desculpas.

Pros:

Nettes Hotel, welches nur durch eine Straße und einer Promenade vom Donauufer getrennt liegt. Man hat von den Zimmern einen hervorragenden Blick auf Ruse, die Donau und auf der anderen Flussseite bis weit nach Rumänien hinein. Das Essen und das Personal sind gut. Auch der Parkplatz war bewacht und kostenlos.

Cons:

Abends gab es aufgrund einer Veranstaltung etwas Lärm, aber ansonsten gibt es nichts zu beanstanden.

Recommended (with parking!!)
Pros:

The hotel is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from the center of Ruse and offers free private parking for guests.

We chose a room with a view of the Danube River and the scenery was truly beautiful. The room was spacious, comfortable, and included amenities such as complimentary coffee, tea and two bottles of water.

The hotel also features the “Garden” restaurant, where we enjoyed a very pleasant dinner in a comfortable atmosphere.

Breakfast was varied and offered a good selection of options. The Wi-Fi connection was also reliable throughout our stay.

For those who appreciate distinctive design, the hotel has a charming retro architecture dating back to the 1970s, which gives it a unique character.

I highly recommend staying here to anyone planning to spend a few days in Ruse.

Хороший отель с видом на Дунай
Pros:

Хороший отель с собственной стоянкой автомобилей, что актуально было для нас. Завтраки хорошие, можно докупить на месте. Отель уже в возрасте, но благодаря ремонту который они начали с нижних этажей и расселяют гостей уже в свежие номера, вид номеров отличный после ремонта. В номере вас встречает приветственная бутылочка воды, два пакетика с чаем и два с кофэ.

Cons:

С открытым окном ночью залетают комары, запасайтесь средством от комаров.
