Top Ethnographic Institute with Museum Hotel Reviews

Sofia Balkan Palace

8/10 Good

"Beautiful hotel and great location. The gym was pathetic though and the housecleaning staff would either knock on the door at 9am and one morning 10. I asked them to come back at 11 and they never cleaned the room until repeatedly asking both them and the front desk. The room was finally cleaned around 4:15 in the afternoon. I would have expected more from this hotel."

Grand Hotel Sofia

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are huge! Nice outside area to hang out."

Grand Hotel Millennium Sofia

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic 5 star hotel! Great staff and super clean and large room. Awesome location right on Vitosha Blvd. Parking was easy but a tad expensive ($30 Euro per night). One thing to note - not all rooms have access to the pool, which is a wonderful perk. We had to pay an extra $80 Euro to use pool complex : ( The top floor bar is spectacular - definitely go! All in all a great hotel!"

5 Vintage Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"I picked this place due to the location, it's walking distance to the city centre, metro and airport. The staff on arrival was very friendly, upgraded me to a nicer room as the guest in my reserved room hadn't checked out. The accommodation was decorated really nicely with retro/vintage decor. The staff also left a nice birthday treat in my room, it was such a lovely surprise. Very thoughtful of them. The bed was so comfortable, I slept for 10hrs after a hiking on the Rila mountains, just what I needed. The stay here made my birthday weekend extra special. I couldn't have asked for more. I would definitely recommend staying here."
