Won't be my first choice again
Hotel was in a perfect location but! 30Euro per night just for parking fee was just a rip off. Breakfast was kind of weak for a luxury hotel. Unsufficent will be a better term. Room Cleaners and door man were really kind and lovely persons. But hotel was just OK.

Sense hotel Sofia, while its location is undeniably convenient—just a short walk from many of the city’s major attractions—the overall experience didn’t quite meet my expectations. The proximity to key sites made it easy to explore without needing transportation, which was a definite plus. However, I was disappointed with the room and service standards. The room felt a bit outdated and lacked the comfort I was hoping for. Additionally, the service seemed somewhat inattentive, and certain requests took longer to fulfill than expected. While the location is fantastic for tourists, I believe there’s room for improvement in terms of the hotel’s accommodation and service quality.

Very nice hotel but beware of houskeeping
Very cool adn cpmfortable boutique hotel in a an excellent downtown location. Amazing rooftoop restaurant and bar with some of teh best views in town and an excellent cusine. I would have given the full marks for service except for teh fact that once again a cleaning lady from housekeeping stormed into teh room catching me in my birthday suit, seems to be a common theam in many hotels.

An excellent hotel. Definitely 5 star service. Great room with a balcony in a central location. Food was good and cocktails were excellent in the ground floor restaurant. The rooftop bar had a lovely view, book ahead for a table as it was full most nights in our stay.

This is one of the best Hotels I have ever stayed in. It is better than most 4 **** in Las Vegas. It is a huge bang for your buck and the staff are supreme! You have a grand view of the Cathedral every morning for breakfast and is centrally located to all the sights especially the Roman ruins and shopping. The restaurant is bar none a top shelf menu! Seemed to be a popular night spot too for patrons and locals.

Weird impressions
It has been a weird experience. On one hand this is considered to be a unique-style hotel, but certain details were not to my taste. Positives: the breakfast room on the 9th floor - excellent views, ok food and service. The Jintu Asian restaurant on the ground floor - top notch. The pool and sauna area - ok, but the steam sauna was steamless. Negatives: my room was on the 1st floor among the conference rooms. Street view was nothing to enjoy. Door-type window blinds was the most strange thing I’ve ever seen. The shower door leaked water out onto the bathroom floor and I always had to use a big towel to collect it. The water pressure is simply to high. The most dissapointing was that the room didn’t look modern - had no USB pirts, chargibg stations and TV was difficult to manage with just a few programs really working. My conclusion - not worth its high price.

Nice but a few things can be improved
Overall a good experience but there’s poor noise reduction between rooms and corridors. Please note that smoking is allowed in bars and restaurants and there are no tables that are smoke free. The spa is very nice and the staff friendly.
