Top National Opera and Ballet Hotel Reviews

Grand Hotel Sofia

10/10 Excellent

"The room was large and comfortable, and the fittings and fixtures looked clean and new especially in the bathroom. The staff were helpful and kind, providing us recommendation for local food. Most of all, the hotel was in an excellent central location, within walking distance to most major sites in the city centre. We really enjoyed our stay here in Sofia and are happy to recommend this hotel!"

Best Western Terminus Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Well located Hotel near the Sofia train and coach stations. Also close to tram/metro links for the city. Very welcoming reception, very helpful staff too. Allocated room was nice and quiet although bathroom could have been a little cleaner (black mold in sealant). Excellent breakfast included in the price. The Wi-Fi works well and all in all would use again."

InterContinental Sofia by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location, super helpful staff, great amenities!"

B1 Downtown Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very well located hotel with easy access from the airport. All the facilities were new and well maintained, with comfortable rooms. The only issue was that there is no parking as advertised so finding somewhere to leave the car was an issue (although getting a fine was the cheapest option compared to the extortionate prices for local garages so just ended up paying for a daily parking fine of 15 euro)."

Hotel Favorit

"Very good Hotel enjoyed my staying thabk you"

Slavyanska Beseda Hotel

8/10 Good

"Na pierwszy rzut oka hotel nie wygląda na luksusowy ale takim nie musi wcale być. Najważniejsze, że pokoje są dobrze urządzone i czyste - wygodne łóżko oraz balkon ze stolikiem i fotelem. Dla gości kawa, herbata i czajnik elektryczny do samodzielnego przygotowania sobie napojów. Ale jest również hotelowe bistro. Obsługa hotelowa sympatyczna i pomocna we wszystkim, zarówno na recepcji jak i wśród pań pokojowych. Hotel położony w bardzo dobrym punkcie Sofii, zarówno do zabytków, do dworców jaki do centrum."
